Well, they put a community label on my Courtesan!Gyutaro fic. So if you want to read it you are going to have to go into your settings and allow mature posts. 😓

I feel like I put the appropriate cw on it, so idk why this happened. I'll see what I can do.

I like how I planned to draw for other things and then doubled down on legend of zelda / skyward sword art

I’m relistening to TAZ: Balance because I never actually finished it but I have a LOT of feelings. like my gods. I love how first when Justin is introduced to this idea of Taako having a twin he comes at it sort of thoughtfully before he takes it into full swing and brings that into Taako’s character - from like, being uncertain of how she fits to making up a silly lip-sync dance that always makes Lup laugh. It destroyed me the first time, but also the second time when I heard it - when Taako says, “Who?”

I hear a lot of praise about how Griffin crafted the story but my gods Justin knows how to rip our hearts too.

It is time for a rewatch

I was thinking about the fact that one of the few things that corporal or authoritarian punishment teaches children is that the major thing that determines if something is right or wrong is whether or not they will get caught—and oh my god that explains SO MUCH about some peoples morality

YEAH, I think people forget that Subaru can be unapologetically mean (most of the time he doesn't do it to hurt people though) and it makes his dynamic with Natsume soo.. so nice.

You. You ask me this knowing fully well i won't shut up about subaru once i start talking. Well. Long post ahead.

But i agree. I think most people won't know much about him besides the kira-kira front he keeps putting out (unless they actually read some other trickstar stories). And i mean, yeah he's super adorable and cute and energetic but he's been through A LOT. And that energetic front is some sort of a weapon for him.

Like, he's not pretending to be happy, he IS MAKING himself happy despite all. Despite all his anger at the injustices that took away his father's life and his mother's happiness. Despite all the suffering he endured from the press that kept harassing him and his mom after his father's death. Despite the industry that covered up his father's death as a mere scandal rather than facing the uncomfortable truths and corruption within the industry. And the ungodly anxiety always surrounding him because all people think about when they see him is "son of a murderer"

And where does that lead subaru? Nowhere, really. All alone with no one beside him and nobody to guide him anymore, he just clings to memories of the past for guidance and tries to follow in the steps of his dad.

Which is i feel like why natsume reached out to subaru in the first place. Subaru is a natural genius but unfortunately a weirdo loner at a corrupted high school, natsume is also a weirdo loner genius at a corrupted high school. And unlike subaru, natsume is not traumatised and really likes helping people and making them happy (he will never admit to this, the tsundere tendencies are off the charts), so naturally he reaches out to subaru.

AND THEIR FIRST MEETING IN ROCKET START IS JUST AKSHDGSKAVVDKFKSJDV

it's like.... natsume starts talking to subaru, subaru automatically puts out this positive attitude regardless of who is talking with him, right. natsume cares about subaru but god forbid anyone knows that natsume has feelings and cares about people, so he starts talking aaaall mysterious wizard stuff. Subaru immediately notices something is up with natsume, he's not sure what, but this guy is not to be underestimated and there's something this guy knows about him, and he instantly drops his happy facade and gets serious. The more subaru talks to natsume the more he realizes that natsume...is actually really nice. And so he goes back to his positive attitude. And it pisses natsume off, tsuntsun is not pleased lmao.

But their first meeting is so wiiild to me. Like imagine meeting someone for the first time and immediately they metaphorically strip you off and leave you naked and vulnerable. Like literally your first conversation with this person. And then you do the exact same thing to them. And now you're friends???? Profit.

You know those videos of cats snuggling their sad owners and then their owner happily tries to kiss it and now suddenly the cat is pissed that the affection gets returned? Subanatsu. With natsume being the cat.

But yeah sometimes people forget that subaru has years upon years of anger that he never really had an outlet for and that's probably why he likes violence so much. Like the one thing that got changed in the anime is the fact that when anzu went to meet kiryu (famed strongest most violent guy in the whole school), the anime portrayed subaru going in with anzu to meet kiryu to protect her. This literally doesn't happen in the main story at all. Don't get me wrong, subaru IS overprotective of anzu, like everyone else in trickstar. But he didn't go with her, he sent her there on her own and then was like "ok, if anything happens to you, scream, and then i'll come in and ambush kiryu with a bat". I want you to imagine that. This dude was standing outside with a bat fully prepared and thrilled to hit the academy's strongest guy. He literally sent anzu as bait.

And then there's that one time he wanted to bomb the student council (jokingly). And that one time he took a hammer in front of rinne out pretending that he's going to hit him. And like. Every time he fights with hokuto. I genuinely have no idea how these two HAVEN'T physically hit each other yet considering that hokke also seems quite fond of violence. And also how unabashedly confrontative he was when he met eichi at the council for the first time. And please never forget the time he meets nagisa for the first time and immediately calls poor baby nagisa a bastard in a very happy tone.

Nagisa. You know. Godfather's legal successor. Leader of adam. Leader of eden. The top unit at that time. Subaru has Zero Fears. I love he

And honestly seeing how often natsume hits tsumugi for fun i can see why subanatsu get along

subaru 🤝violence🤝 natsume

Wonderful, now I'm apparently engaging in conspiratorial wishful thinking, and also silly and clueless about the Forgotten Realms lore for not being thrilled by this new backstory for Gale and trying to make it make sense in the context.

Because the answer as to why they changed it can't possibly be other story factors like the changes to Wyll's arc (because story changes, big or small, at even relatively late stage of development never ever affect anything else in a story this massively interconnected, no sire) or final fine-tuning of the story elements, it can only be that the previous backstory was a lie (never mind the fact that many new players at launch might never even learn about that version of the story).

Because Gale is a lying liar who lies. About everything. All day every day. He surely doesn't even have a cat or like lavender-scented baths! And it makes so much sense to swap a story where he does stupid shit out of hubris and gets divinely punished (albeit in a rather nonsensical manner, but gods are gods I guess) for it for a story where he does stupid shit out of hubris and gets hoisted by his own petard, no divine intervention required. One of these stories paints him in so much more flattering light! It's not like he's a hubris-filled moron whose actions had dire consequences in both stories, after all! And it's not like he's not solely responsible for the catastrophic consequences his current predicament might cause to the world around him in both versions!

Oh wait.

But yeah. I'm silly and see conspiracies everywhere. Let's go with that.

(Yeah I should get out of Reddit, I know.)

[peachcitt]

in class and my professor called me aside to ask if im alright and it’s like. hashtag how do i tell you that i feel like you are wasting my time and you will most likely continue wasting my time for the next two hours giving me lectures on content and ideas ive already learned and practiced twice over all while in a classroom where the majority of students in there don’t actually care as much as they should to have a career in this field and that’s hashtag killing my vibe. like how do i say that

[bisexualchrissycunningham]

My student loan balance is slowly but surely entering the era where it no longer makes me incredibly depressed and hopeless for my future, but excited to see how low it's getting. Thank fuck for therapy for helping me change my outlook on shit like this so it's not just slowly killing me on the inside.
