Reading the webtoon and…
Tumblr media
Does this imply that Kim Dokja also tried to write a questionnaire for her to fill in since she wouldn’t speak to him, that either he 1) never gave her in the end (especially if he couldn’t find her after she was released) or 2) gave it to her and she STILL refused to answer?
Because that is so so so so awful. It was already bad but if he tried so many ways to get her to speak and she still gave him no response, regardless of her reasoning… isn’t that still directly choosing to cut herself fully out of his life? Why in the hell did she lie for his sake and allow him to visit her if she wanted to never speak to him again?
I know everyone claims Kim Dokja is just like her in sacrificing himself for loved ones, but at least he tries his best to stay with them and to keep them in his life. He still chooses sacrifice, but it’s not because he intends to never return. He always returns (even if much later than planned).
The only time this differs is with 51%, when he STILL tried his best to stay with them - at least as much as he could.
I sometimes like Lee Sookyung, but I am mostly still SO mad at her for completely ignoring her child since he was 8 years old. Especially when he must have looked like shit any number of times from being mistreated and bullied by family, friends, army, employers.
But maybe that’s just the fragment in me being eternally pissed with her. She DOES love him, but like he says in the webtoon in this chapter - maybe such truths are painful enough to be false anyways, because they’re just SUCH bullshit. That’s not how affection should work, if you actually care about someone and want them to be happy.
#RAWWRGHHH I WANT TO SHAKE HER SO MUCH#LOOK AFTER YOUR KID#and if you can’t do that because of circumstances at least ACKNOWLEDGE HIM#yes I do know she cared and it’s just that she mistakenly believes he’s better off this way without her but like#then WHY does she still insert herself back into his life when he’s finally stopped trying to get her to speak?#yes yes others have great analyses on her and their relationship and I usually agree with their logic but it’s still. So. Hard. to like her#but then I remember that this story was the little Dream’s wishful thinking to cope back then on his own#and so maybe in his world Lee Sookyung never ever would speak to him again#he just wished she would so he wrote it down as happening for This older version of him#and that’s somehow worse because like#even in the story where he got her to speak to him again she still won’t speak so he has to force the words out some way (via outer god)#and if that’s true then it’s still just his interpretation of her actions and choices#and not her own since she never told him#so like ARGGHHH#but I like to believe that characters have autonomy despite their respective author’s efforts in documenting them#so she still chose to speak all of this too and he would have accurately interpreted her this way because she controls what she says#even if he (little Dream Kim Dokja) is the one writing it down as wish fulfilment fix-it fic#a fix-it for himself and not just for the other people he loves#😭😭😭#orv#orv spoilers#omniscient reader’s viewpoint#lee sookyung#kim dokja

"Hey look everyone we got crabs" is honestly such a deep quote. Amazing how it came from Ensemble Stars

Also after scrolling through the hollow mind tag for a bit- I know it was definitely hunter's episode (the grimwalker reveal, his panic attack, him fleeing belos AND the owl house) BUT CAN WE TALK ABOUT LUZ. AND BELOS. CAN WE TALK ABOUT LUZ AND BELOS FOR A MOMENT PLEASE
#ramblings of a lunatic#toh#the owl house#BELOS IS SO FUCKING SMUG. ABOUT MANIPULATING A CHILD. HE IS WITH HUNTER TOO BUT HE ACTS LIKE IT'S SUCH A ''gotcha!'' W/ LUZ#AND SHE FUCKING BELIEVES HIM. SHE SPENDS THE WHOLE EPISODE SO WELL INTENTIONED BY PUSHY AND NAIVE#BUT BY THE END SHE'S JUST. SHATTERED#he thinks they're the same because she's a human. he thinks she's the same as his brother because she's a human ensnared by witches#and she parallels both the wittebane brothers in certain ways but not the ways belos thinks she does#he doesn't realized that despite being hundreds of years younger than him- luz is a version of phillip who actually grew up#and hollow mind is such a big painful part of her growing up i just. HHHHGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!#man belos' whole deal is just. it's so much. it's so much you guys#local protestant somehow managed to introduce an islands worth of ppl to the concept of catholic guilt!!!! fucked up!!!!!!#idk I'm a bit head empty rn (or at least I'm not super duper coherent) i mostly appreciated all the subtle touches and the lore this time#(like how hunter describes his family as being wiped out because they ''knew too much'' and ''got themselves hurt''-#-like. he's just describing caleb. HE'S JUST DESCRIBING CALEB GOD!!!!! BELOS PROBABLY TOLD HIM A VERISON OF THAT STORY SAYING CALEB WAS-#-HUNTERS DAD OR SOMETHING I JUST. AGHH!)#but like. yeah. it's. its a good episode#i once saw someone say that they think before the great shortening hollow mind was intended to be the s2 finale#which i think is honestly a good theory considering it's kind of toh's thesis statement and biggest show of what it can do#pushing the characters and themes to their logical extremes and popping off with the writing and art direction#i could talk more but also. i couldn't. no notes#my only wish is that the collector got to rhyme more because it scared me so much the first time#(what with the secret code poems and the acrostic poems hidden in the titles. i was like WAIT A MINUTE)#idk we've talked before about ways that s3 could open and how it could parallels past moments in the show#what. what if it opened with the collector reciting a poem that recaps the series til now????? oooh wait that's juicy#even just as a trailer audio it'd be neat#(or a theme song takeover if disney cared abt marketing this show jdbdjsbdkf)#anyway yeah. the gay little witch show is kicking my ass rn!

I don’t listen to music when I work/write or anything but oftentimes what I DO listen to are Paul McCartney interviews. He is the most charming man

Got an idea I just had to share. I love enemies to lovers, and I love fake dating, but what about fake enemies who are secretly dating?! It's easy for Bill and dipper since they bicker all the time, but now they're both annoyed that they can't kiss in public
I approve of this concept and wish to subscribe to your newsletter.
#DIpper doesn't want it public knowledge because he'd get labeled as a monsterfucker#Which okay#He is#But there's considerable stigma attached even if Bill looks like a handsome human guy#Bill's okay with being on the down-low because the last thing he needs is a bunch of humans OR demons getting the idea to hook up#There was a fad for it in the 1400's and the breakups were a total migrane#Wails of eternal torment are only fun when it's not some demon clutching a photo of a summoner who said their tentacle was too small#Even WORSE were all the demons coming up with stories about gory heartbreak and breakups and more gore#Just to fit in with the fad#All along the lines of 'and then everyone stood up and clapped and told me how great I was' levels of 'yeah THAT happened'#Bill fucking hated it#SUPER annoying#And he doesn't want people trying to copycat his sweet gig either#Nobody else is gonna compare#But now I'm imagining Bill getting asked about romance#Probably on camera#Him declaring that it's stupid and demons don't do that and no they definitely don't fuck#Dipper's off to the side rolling his eyes#Until he hears Bill go 'What's this kissing thing you're talking about'#Dipper is now on High Alert for Bill Shenanigans#'Maybe I'll try it out! C'mere kid'#Dipper gets hauled in for the second worst but definitely messiest kiss of his life#It's CLEARLY all for the drama#Bill parts with a declaration that kissing is 'not all that' and 'can't see why you're into it'#Dipper is very very very annoyed#Also disheveled#I wrote a story in the tags because I'm a fool

You know what, I had my doubts about the Barbie movie and feminism but it was a lot more explicit than I thought it'd be. A little cartoonish and on the nose sometimes but also it's in the middle of a movie about a kids toy so it balanced it's sometimes heavy handedness with a BUNCH of funny as shit jokes.
Ken is my son and I love him, and I was delighted by his story arc and Goslings performance. Fantastic casting choices all around! Also starting it like 2001 A Space Odyssey was a fuckin brilliant choice, half pisstake half genuis way to introduce your world and the occasional narrator the movie has.

Could you perhaps tells us how Popopo would react when he finds out that the few abilities Meta has is not considered 'real' abilities? (If I remember right, I have to re-read your story a bit when I have the time. So much have happened the last few chapters I just need to read it all over again just to make sure I haven't missed anything). And thuse the dark blue knight understands him better than most as Meta himself had prove with skill and hard earn strength that he could be a star warrior.
BSbjdhf I hope it's not too overwhelming, I just like a lot of connected stuff, and it's totally okay to forget a few things here and there. It's a lot and is just a fun trip to go through. I don't expect a 500 page essay or anything, that's for me to do to have fun and see if anyone catches certain details/hints I planted<3
And Meta sees a lot of himself in Popopo! That little fella is just a lot softer than Meta was---he has a lot of insecurities about it but went in a more passive direction than Meta did. That is what worries him the most since the poor boy struggles a lot, but he thankfully keeps getting back up despite it all.
I'll kind of go deeper into that little Puff's stuff below the cut with some small bits of my fic to kinda show stuff off but yeah there's some small details that I sprinkle in about every character, even if they're minor.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But yeah, the inspiration can only go so far since he's realllllyyy hard on himself. Meta is like this too, in a lot of his POV chapters he berates himself over so many things despite doing a lot of amazing things. Meta is really keeping an eye on this one out of the other children since they don't have the same issues.
Even Volcan, who was traumatized, is adjusting pretty well all things considered.
Now for some fun character details/parallels below the cut that will also tie into the no-Ability thing they got going on:
Tumblr media
Keeby, being the eldest of the Gold Generation is very much the big brother and tries to encourage Popopo to be nicer to himself. (To mirror Meta for a sec, Falspar was the one who tried to encourage Meta to not be so down either.)
Keeby's even yelled at his Shadow self back in the mirror world for being so mean.
Tumblr media
His mirror self really hits how Popopo sees himself; useless, a waste of time and resources and ultimately broken. Someone that's only good to be a shield for Kirby if needed.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But the thing is, out of all the kids, Popopo was the one to realize the Mirror World denizens were just reflecting their worst selves. He showed mercy and sympathy while Artemis was ready to just shatter them all. He didn't want her to hurt the other because he could tell they were already suffering, even if the other insisted on picking at his insecurities.
Tumblr media
Sure, there's a bit of envy from how much attention Kirby gets, being a fabled prophetic baby and all, but anyone would. He wants to be special too, but he doesn't see that he can bring something else to the table as well, much like Meta Knight didn't see when he was younger.
They see from the lens of "how useful am I in combat?" but can't see beyond that. It's like someone focusing solely on one singular thing that they feel will dictate their value while ignoring everything else.
Meta was lucky in that he brute-forced his skills in battle and cultivated his ego well enough with his wit and intelligence.
Popopo on the other hand is struggling with battle but is very perceptive and doesn't just charge into things unless he has to. (He's a kid so he's still figuring himself out too.)
Tumblr media
Meta Knight's words were genuine here, knowing everyone has a purpose, even if there isn't a fancy prophecy to them. Meta doesn't have one and look at all that he has accomplished---Galacta and Kirby, two extremely powerful and legendary creatures, wouldn't be where they are without him guiding them along.
It's a hard thing to grasp for these two and even to this day Meta still mentally berates himself for not being good enough despite doing everything he possibly can do in situations.
While Meta has been at this longer, it's a very hard and toxic mindset to entirely shake off. He knows that and doesn't want Popopo to feel that way, but is unsure how to get out of it himself.
It's also why you see Dark Meta Knight constantly boasting about being the best while also being extremely critical. (He needs to be the best or else what purpose does he fulfill?)
Meta tries to help Popopo with combat where he can, gave him a sword, and even noticed Joe and Silica's suggestion to help the boy:
Tumblr media
He just wants the kiddo to succeed as well, but unlike himself, Popopo just doesn't have the same strength he had as a young baby. They aren't one-to-one the same. If they were, Meta would have a run for his money, haha. Popopo is far too soft and sweet to really have the same bite Meta had as a kid.
But don't worry, there's a happy ending for this little lad.
Tumblr media
As a teen/adult he is definitely a lot happier and sure of himself. He's actually a very decent fighter once he stops dragging himself down.
Tumblr media
But until then, he's working through his insecurities like all the others around him. His just happen to hit Meta far closer to home.
I mean, heck, even Kirby of all the kids has insecurities about being unable to summon his Warp Star alone or being unable to speak like them. Galacta Knight fears never being good enough to save everyone as he always wanted and is also hard on himself when he can't do everything.
Just goes to show that even "special" sorts also have their issues too.
I've rambled a lot now but yeah, there's some fun fluff to digest about these guys<3

I also wanted to name my son Eren if I have one, I was too scared people would make fun of him (bcs of how popular aot is lol) but I heard that’s it’s pretty common in Turkey + your son is ADORABLE so I will definitely name my son Eren. I LOVE YOU
awwww baby thank you so much for the compliment 😭😭😭
yeah eren is a pretty common name in turkey. I think one of my moots here said that 5 out of 20 guys in turkey have that name LOL
if it's not common in your country, maybe you can do what I do, just combine it with another name or something. My son's full name is actually Erenathan Sky Atreya so it's not just Eren. some people call him Nathan or Sky or Rey, and I don't mind. I just like to call him Eren cause I'm simping for that man and i want to have a reason to call his name everyday without being weird LMAO

#but who in their right mind would say that his traumas are on the same level as mine#theyre worlds apart and i didnt mean it like a “ha ha my life is better than yours” but more of a “i shouldnt complain”#which is wrong too ofc you cant compare things like that! a broken thing is broken no matter what broke it#and we both are mentally fucked to the point that we are actually disabled#but we both cope and bond with gallows humor and joke about our horrible traumas#because at some point it stops being a horrible story that you gotta be serious about. and turns into a story so horrible its funny#you know what i mean??#like how would anyone be able to keep a straight face when told that i was beaten and bullied to the tune of peppa pig hfhskjshg#“greta gris nöffnöff” while kicking me hfbskjfhs like making someone oink in tune to the song is hilarious#its horrible but hilarious#its the same with his stories where he had his fucked up family stories that we just laughed about because it was so horrible#but this time i went overboard with my half joke half concern comments#and it turned awkward and i hurt him and now im here venting after weve already made up#im sorry ted i love you youre a great friend and i hope you get therapy soon#we botj are mental wrecks and you desperately need meds hahah#i hope to see where you end up in the future and i hope you get to see me finish engineering school#i hope we stat friends for a long time and keep up with eachother even when far apart and doing our own thing#im gonna be horrible with contact tho i always am lmao#also i hope yours and noahs marriage goes well i love you two youre great#also i hope noah get their fucking mental health cyecked too god damn theyre an autistic trigger wreckage#i cant talk about traumas with anyone else because the worst thing on earth is when someone pities me. or feels sorry for me#stop it! im not weak! im not pathetic like that! dont pity me! its disgusting!#ugh. unfortunately us making fun of eachothers trauma leads to a guilty partypooper feeling when trying to get help#cant really reach out to ted without feeling awkward or guilty or like a killjoy making things worse#i love him but damn. i hate hate hate hate having panic attacks in front of people and even more someone that normally jokes w me#idk

Home from my trip, I managed to navigate the city capitol interstate in the dark+rain mostly on my own :D (not without a death grip on my steering wheel the whole time, but that's okay)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Wasn't actually able to take any pictures, which is rare bc I usually come back from trips with at least 20. All I got was a picture of a miniature deck of cards I won in a game and the pretty state welcome sign on my way back in (taken with no other vehicles around me but my dad's, of course) (and theres one of these at every possible entrance to the state so i dont think this really says where i was at). Trip blab in tags but tldr; it was fun :)
#so it was my mom's side of the family (who are all extremely chaotic people) and they loooooove planning games at these get-togethers#one of them was a christmas trivia game we did last year with candies as rewards for getting stuff right#and my grandparents put together the questions this year and pawpaw came out like 'hey these are all really easy but itll be fun anyway'#every. damn. question. was about the story of the birth of jesus.#obscure shit too like 'who was the prophetess that told about jesus' birth in the old testament' (which was unfortunately asked to me :') )#and out of all 35 of us only two people got any questions right#mind you; one family there was a PASTOR'S FAMILY#ive never seen such a look of disappointment from pawpaw; he was losing faith in all of us#I think the only other funny thing that happened was; i went to grab some food and had to walk over people that were sitting on the floor#i guess i stepped over them too dramatically bc i heard my siblings behind me go 'why's she walking all fruity like that' and honestly#i was internally wheezing (I guess they didnt realize i heard them but it was still so funny)#maybe its one of those funny things thats funnier in person/in the moment it happens but still lol#otherwise i ended up dozing while people played cards and its a good thing i did bc i felt great driving home#it started to rain as soon as we got to nashville#i hate going through there bc theres ~4 major lane changes that happen while everyone else seems to forget the speed limit exists#and my dad has one of those big ass trucks so he was kicking up water in my windshield and i couldn't see#i ended up zooming to get in front of him and tried to figure out city traffic on my own (which i did very well and without a hitch :D)#I'll put together the music i was listening to omw home if anybody's interested#six hour long playlist of the most random shit#🥜🥜<-tasty snack as thank you for reading this far#not rb
