I saw such a bad take on Jiang Cheng's character and I can't stop thinking about how terrible it is. "Jiang Cheng did nothing wrong....couldn't have handled things better because of his situation..."...something something. Why is it so hard for people to accept what's written in canon. MXTX wanted JC to be seen as an antagonist, she wanted him to be a terrible person it's so obvious from all the parallels between him and WWX's characters...
A huge excuse when they try to paint him as a "sad, misunderstood uwu boy" is that he went through a lot and thought it was all wwx's fault. But so did Jiang Yanli, and she didn't have any of the reactions that Jiang Cheng did. SHE was the one who lost her husband, SHE also lost her parents the same way he did?
I also reread some scenes recently...and his homophobia is so apparent especially in the scene where lwj and wwx visit his parents' shrine. ALSO, his excuse for thinking their dating is that he saw them hug under that tree??? AND HE FOLLOWED THEM TO SEE WHAT THEY'D DO AFTERWARDS😭😭😭
I'm just confused about what excuse they have that makes it so easy to overlook all the shitty things about him💀
(oh, they also seem to hate...wangxian? Like actively believe those two are annoying and that they're bad people. Which is kind of sad, since they're the main pairing of a...ROMANCE NOVEL. So I feel pretty bad for them for having to read a whole book about two characters they don't like)
Just wanted to know your thoughts. JC is irredeemable in my eyes. He's not a bad guy but he is a very bad person. But maybe other people see something I don't😂
Somehow I missed this ask, but I found it right on time (after seeing some stan bullshit 🙄) . My thoughts on Jiang Cheng is that the book is very clear that he is a terrible leader, a terrible uncle, and a terrible brother (both martial and bio) who chose the path of his toxic, violent mother to pursue over his kind father. Anyone saying otherwise is not worth engaging.
People don’t see something you don’t about his character, anon; people are choosing to unsee the things in canon because they’ve imprinted on a character that only exists in fan art, fanfic, and “incorrect quotes” memes. The disconnect isn’t a misunderstanding of the story but people uninvested in the original story wanting to impose their own uninspired fandom tropes onto an already cohesive story, and I simply do not have the energy to deal with that level of denial anymore with this fandom.

Final surprise boop attack for @yowassupitsred!!
Faeran would 100% be really obnoxious about Calamari, and would intentionally make others appreciate her boopings haha.
(Secret second boop attack to @starbiology in revenge to the april fools war because even though i didn't know if you had any characters, I think of her as your character by this point and I found this scenario hilarious in my mind)

Hello Hi! I’m alive and I saw DnD au.
I’m a very big DnD nerd and I want to say a thing!
1: I thought for a moment “no Howdy would be a martial Class” but you are so right, he makes inventions. So cool
2: WARLOCK WALLY WARLOCK WALLY WARLOCK WALLY (from a person who loves Warlocks this fills my heart with glee)
3: I am 5 seconds away from designing homebrew for them/building off actual subclasses for them. I am Actively trying to figure out how to Give Wally the Big House spell (which is an actual spell) bc it fits his vibe.
hello welcome back!
honestly i struggled for a Minute there w/ Howdy's classification cause yeah... four hands made for punching... but then Clown's response to an ask about what each neighbor would do in Splatoon said that Howdy would use some sorta bomb (i don't know the names/terms! i dont play!) so my brain went "ah! ranged attacks!" honestly most of my choices here are based off of that post.... its nice to know the Roles they would all take in battle!
ok im not a huge dnd nerd but like. im guessing 'big house spell' is the magnificent mansion, and isnt that a wizard spell? if you were willing to fuck with boundaries a lil, you could reason that wizard/warlock are juuuuust similar enough that either could use that spell

btw i meant to make this post like 3 days ago but i have been very forgetful and not perceiving of time lately teehee ^^ but anyway yall know that one post thats like. i will die if people do not tell me about their ocs. well that is real and true and i do in fact think people telling me about their ocs would fix me at least a little so im gonna need yall to fucking pick it up or i'll DIE okay. [i slam my hands down on my desk and like normally it would be really cool and awesome and intimidating but i am so weak and sickly due to lack of ocs that it doesn't even make a dent and its kind of a little bit awkward.]

Good evening my lovely fellow, I have a question on your headcanon with dotf. What'd you think would happen if you introduced Kaon to like Techno music? Or maybe heavy metal? Would he go crazy for it or just like.. Implode
I like to ask people about their headcanons a lot so just a forewarning you might get a few more asks about it :] (An image of low quality Rodimus to take on your journies)
OMG I HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT THIS. okay so human music wise kaon is really fond of electronic / techno sounding beats, especially in really sappy love songs (he thinks of the dotf mc and swoons) but for organic music it isnt half bad. his music tastes are a lot smoother than vos’ who likes stuff like breakcore with really chaotic beats. in truth someone bashing someones head in against a trashcan would be vos’ favorite song, if he made music hed sample his own murder sounds for it and think he was a genius 😭 kaon would enable him but insist on adding his own touch to it which would piss off vos.

omg did you get jumped??😫
Nope, went up to the office and while I was telling them about the situation in the office she literally came up there as well. So, I probably would have because she was clearly looking for me but 🤷

"Victor Frankenstein is a cruel mad scientist who did not care for anyone but only his pride." Respectfully, i feel like you all are making him a bit too cool and knew-what-he-was-doing type when in Shelley's book he was the most pathetic thing in existence, sopping wet cat, had no idea what he waa doing, had all the fragility of a Victorian sick child, i can pick him up with his scruff and dangle him and all he would do is whimper type of a character

anyone else ever get in those silly goofy moods where u just hate urself sooo much that u instantly feel physically almost violently ill just thinking abt urself and also even tho u worked a 12hr shift w no breaks or water running off of the 2 cups of coffee u had for breakfast 20 hours ago, the thought of eating instantly sends bouts of nausea coursing thru ur soul while churning in ur stomach bc ur brain hates u so much that its convinced ur body that u don’t deserve sustenance or anything else that’s life sustaining or promotes ur physical well being because u subconsciously convinced urself that ur such a shit excuse for a human being that u neither deserve nor have any right to anything regarding maslow’s hierarchy of needs bc u r such an awful thing u deserve to be neglected n treated like the nonliving object ur own brain sees ur living body as or am i just mentally ill lol

“#3: why did you remove There Is No War In Ba Sing Se” uhh can I ask what you mean by that? Everything with BSS would be in the next season?
Thanks for following up on this- I heard something from a friend and didn't do my due diligence to find out more. It's been a few years since my last rewatch and I forgot that, yeah of course the earth kingdom plot wouldn't be in the first season.
So my bad on that count. Thanks for the correction!

SEEING YOU SWEAR WAS A FEVER DREAM I WAS NOT PREPARED FOR BUT EAT IT KING!!! SERVE!!
oh I didn’t realise that I don’t actually swear all that often until now. I guess I usually use things like ‘mf’ (I parroted that one from aru) or ‘friggin’ because I like them more lmao
But yes I can swear! Usually only when I feel very strongly about something :3

Hehe I saw your tags and am SO flattered that you think my f/o list is top tier 🥺❤ I have to admit, it's hard not to f/o every single Cookie I pull xD
Cocoa Cookie was the first epic defense Cookie I got, and I used her in my team forever until I met more Cookies!! She's so sweet (and she's almost exactly like me fr)!! I can't believe she gets hardly any attention, she's literally so kind and adorable 😊
( @pixelselfships )
YES OH MY GOODNESS I AM THE EXACT SAME WAY!!!!! X_X i'm more into o.venbreak than i am ki.ngdom but istg every time a new cookie is released i start LOSING my MIND trying not to f/o them in some way...especially the newer ones like i.ce ju.ggler(? actually she was released in 2021 wasn't she. so not super new) and pa.stel me.ringue like. GOD!!!!
i think i romantically f/o'd ro.guefort the day they released because i was so smitten with them. like. I GET IT SDHHSDAHHAHHAHA i've honestly been considering f/o'ing them again but that's another plate of cookies for another glass of milk
BUT YEAH NO DUDE co.coa co.okie is such a little thing i love her...i VIVIDLY remember unlocking her in o.venbreak (when you still had to reach a certain level in bre.akout to get certain cookies -- i don't think that's a thing anymore? idk its been awhile XP) and literally the moment i laid my eyes on her i opened ms paint and started drawing her because i loved her design so much. and then i got to see her dialogue snippets and everything and i was like OUGHHHH....THE HONEY BOO BOO BEAR...she is one of my fav co.okie ru.n characters of all time im SO SAD!!! that the only time ppl ever care about her is when shes being shipped with other characters. she deserves her own fanbase
SORRY FOR RAMBLING HEHEHEHEHE BUT YEAH!!!! tysm for stopping by and saying something!!! :D your f/o list IS top tier like... gri.llby??? we.rewolf???? pu.re va.nilla?????? SPA.RKLING??? SUCH GOOD CHARACTERS. CHEFS KISS
