ughhhh an Avenger class is a class of their own where not many humans- barely anyone would be able to handle them as they are impossible and incompatible with pan human history and so are one of the hardest to handle. to even be able to summon an Extra class outside of the seven accepted seats is a feat on its own but to form a bond and a strong one at that is a different thing entirely. to gain comforting words from Avengers that eternally burn with vengeance and hatred, to gain companionship and trust from Avengers mercilessly crushed and betrayed by the world, deemed as threats for their retaliation, hunted down as beasts and chased out of their homes with their loved ones killed, those who have also died alone, suffering from such a painful betrayal even when they themselves were faithfull all the way to the end. to gain an Avenger's love and loyalty, weapons that howl and cry and knows unfathomable pain and sorrow, a Class that never forgets, grudges and hatred in which are ingrained into their very existence yet love and compassion is what allows them to persist and keep on burning. as summoning such flames means you yourself are far more removed from "humanity" than anyone else.

my favourite passtime is making up incredibly unaccurate armour designs. That's a lie my passtime is researching but this comes at a close second

Oh now why didn’t they have this be her outfit in the story it actually looks like something she’d wear

there is a difference between being born to a throne, maliciously vying for a throne, stealing a throne, and having a throne thrust upon you when you are already in the midst of an identity crisis. And I fear Loki's place in the line of succession has people unable to differentiate between any of these

So I was thinking, what does Other Bill do when he gets (semi-forcefully sent) back to his universe, what happens? How are the Pines holding up? Does he take out his anger on them? What happens to Other Dipper? Does Other Bill take his anger out on him cause "hey, that's got the same face as the bastard who got me sent back here"? Or does that dubious honour go to Ford because he helped send original Bill back?

Other Bill is going to be sulking and licking his metaphorical (and a lot of very literal) wounds for a while, so any fury isn't going to be immediate! Plus, Other Ford got confirmation that some of his wards against Bill work pretty effectively, so they have a layer of protection! Combine those facts, and it's gonna while before any bloody frustrations can be thrown on them. Also, there's a chance Other Bill goes and tries to bother someone else in a sort of sour grapes attitude.

However. I do think it'd be funny for Other Bill to inevitably come storming back to take some of his frustration on those Pines, and for Other Ford and Other Dipper to sort-of tentatively try and reach our Bill for a little backup. Send an immortal being of infinite energy to kick the ass of an immortal being of infinite energy kinda thing.

Mostly because I don't think Bill's going to pick up the interdimensional call. That task would fall to the other occupant of the Fearmid's master bedroom.

did another Important Clock Exam today! the test says 'gear train' but it sure requires you to service a whole mechanical watch. i think i did well, like definitely good enough to pass unless i did a huge oversight - the problem is that i apparently did REALLY well on the practice run of the exam, teacher telling me he's proud of me and everything, and it's like. well now i need to replicate that success. now i have to SURPASS my success. now i'm hungry for a GOOD and IMPRESSIVE result and not just passing!!!!!

Do you think there's toxic trait in aquakane's relationship? I keep seeing people saying that they are toxic and unhealthy for each other...

Honestly...? I guess it depends on people's takes on what constitutes a toxic relationship, but when I see Aqua and Akane, I see two people genuinely trying to do right by each other to the best of their capabilities.

Aqua is a broken man reborn into a broken teenager, he is toxic to himself because he thinks he doesn't deserve happiness and he closes himself off, hiding his true self behind a veil of lies. Akane is a brilliant girl who quite literally thought acting was the only thing she was good at. She is much better off than Aqua in the mental-health department by now, but she is painfully unaware of her own worth; a clear example of this is the way she is willing to let herself be "used" by Aqua as long as the choice is hers.

These personal issues have consequences, of course. Aqua does lie and manipulate those around him—but he never manages to do this to Akane. Whenever he thinks he is hiding something, Akane figures it out and plays along not because he has manipulated her into it, but by choice. The one exception was the GPS tracker, but Aqua set this up at a time when his intentions towards Akane were less than pure. It doesn't define their relationship. At the contrary, it shows what their relationship could have been like, because the contrast Aka draws is very clear: Aqua originally meant for the GPS to allow him to use Akane as a tool, but in reality it allows him to save Akane's life.

Meanwhile, Akane is good at drawing boundaries when she considers that they need to be drawn (telling Aqua that he needs to decide for himself and that they can't be codependent on each other, pointing out how wrong it was to place a GPS on her and that their relationship was supposed to be one between equals), but she isn't very good at putting herself first, so some of her boundaries are kind of there more for Aqua's sake than her own. Akane was willing to go meet Kamiki, without hesitation, if it meant ensuring Aqua's happiness; she knew she could be in danger, but protecting Aqua mattered more to her than her own safety.

And I think that's when their issue lies, actually. Because I don't think Akane stopped to think that if something were to happen to her, Aqua would break. Likewise, Aqua cut ties with Akane to keep her safe, but he didn't stop to think that Akane won't be able to be happy if he sacrifices himself for his revenge.

They're both self-sacrificial people to a fault. They both underestimate just how much they matter to each other—and to those around them, for that matter.

So yeah, personally I can't bring myself to see their relationship in and of itself as toxic. It had the ingredients to be toxic, but when they were together, they genuinely supported each other, listened to each other, comforted each other and made each other happy.

Now, if people want a perfectly healthy, well-adjusted relationship, Aqua needs to both, come to terms with his trauma and get his revenge out of his system. It'd also be nice if Akane realizes that she can't set herself on fire to keep other people warm.

But these are issues that Aqua would have with anyone, actually. If anything, Akane being able to read him so well is what circumvented Aqua's penchant for lying and being manipulative. Lol.

decided to play with PNGs of my Nuggets like dolls lmao. i would've done Nine too but he 1) deserves a solo post and 2) i....... need to get another reference image of him with Spider Bud glasses

Since it looks like the Avenger Ordeal Call is going to be about Guda dealing with accumulated trauma in a seemingly literal garbage dump of their soul rather rayshifting anywhere, I wonder what's left for the Ruler Ordeal Call.

Maybe the Black Barrel? Mash's shield? What other mystical items do we know are lying around?

I said it on stream once and I’ll say it again; WASNT FATE SUPPOSED TO BE THIS FRANCHISE OF JUST SEXUALIZED ICONS OF HISTORY

Why is it giving me faith in humanity?! Why am I being invested in the plot?! WHY IS THERE PLOT?! Why am I sobbing over pixels and personifications of vengeance?! Why am I weeping for an mc that’s supposed to be nothing more than a vessel for me to see the world through?! Why is it such a BANGER?!?!?!

WHEN FGO MISSES IT MISSES BUT WHEN IT HITS IT MAKES SURE ITS A FATALITY

The heat index is like 41C and I just woke up from passing out due to said heat and now im looking stupid bawling over an anime lad who I orginally made fun of for being drawn in the danganronpa artstyle with a bunch of ice packs on my head

I really am relapsing, huh

Tunguska: Supporting Cast Guy has a crush on Fujimaru Ritsuka. He compares them explicitly to his wife, taking them to the fishing spot he used to frequent with her, and implies he likes them romantically.

Traum: Supporting Cast Guy develops a crush on Fujimaru Ritsuka after a few years of on-off friendship and rivalry. He has a habit of blushing and getting flustered at the slightest one-on-one interaction with them.

Nahui Mictlan: Supporting Cast Guy becomes instantly smitten with Fujimaru Ritsuka. This is both helpful and detrimental to them - helpful, because his interest means he's willing and able to help them stand against common enemies, detrimental because he's completely insane and grows to genuinely believe that the only way to prevent Ritsuka from suffering any more than they already have is to kill them.

so happy to hear about ur relationship!! as someone who's also in a process of grappling with/questioning my aroace identity and a long time follower of yours its really nice to hear you're figuring it out :)

tbf I am still attached to aromanticism, if only because of the issues I have with understanding romantic attraction (it's a different flavour and not a different thing entirely). My relation to it isn't "typical"/"normal" but it also can't perfectly fall into aro/allo definitions, in short - it's whatever I make of it, really. Same can go for you
