Oof, the internal debate when I see a fic with something I loathe in the first sentence (in this case a PoV) and knowing if I can get over this weird pet peeve of mine I’d enjoy it versus the extreme pining my brain is doing for the concept is....a Lot

Won't get through to you 君には届かない。 Ep 8 (Finale)
Liveblogged this to @sandorara in dms, copypasting here, minus 6-10 keysmashes and various romaji bs. Don't expect coherence, do expect squee.
AAAAAAAH!!!!
my BOY Yamato
FUJINO you HORNDOG
oh dear oh dear
KAKERU well DONE!!!
Hosaka ijiwaru~ he just loves to tease Yamato, and tbf, RELATABLE
94 points!
aafdaafds KAKERU HAS "DATE" on his CALENDAR I love him
MIKOTO!!!
Yamato has made so much progress?? I'm so proud. both Yamato and Kakeru, really, but for Yamato to open up like that???
I love these siblings
oh NO the girl tagged ALONG?!
I hate herrrrrr! I mean no but. Yamato. My boy. please. couldn't you have extended your assertiveness to "sorry, you can't come with me, my date is waiting for me"?!
ooof
oh Kakeru, oh nooooo
oh that's what the preview was for
oof
ooof
oh noooooooo
!!!!!!!!!!
HE CONFESSED!!!!!
the sneeze!
taking a BATH at your BOYFRIEND'S PLACE wow these kids move fast 😂
oh god Yamato's gonna be insufferable now, huh. both of them, really
oh I like this mirror shot
oh god that lean-back-eyes-up is LETHAL, wow, Kakeru
REPRAISAL OF THE "Someone's gonna walk by/in" I am!!!!
like that curtain thing is ANY LESS CONSPICUOUS
adsfsadfasdf Kakeru
if this isn't dating, what is?
noooooo not another injury
but man real talk I twisted my ankle SO BAD with those stupid school slippers at one point
afdadsfas these two
kids you're at SCHOOL --
KAKERU HOLY SHIT
THE REGISTER SHIFT HALP
god they're so bashful, it's so cute
I love the back and forth with the echoes this episode
(cheesy? YES. do I care? not at this moment)
I wanted a Kakeru initiated kiss gdi
Murasennnnnnn
Also GO US (@sandorara, @twig-tea, Lee) for going "this title has gotta be short for 俺の気持ちは君には届かない"
I'm docking (very few) mental points for the ending because that felt weirdly rushed, but other than that? love it. I could've done without Yamato going back and forth on the boundary-respecting – I just don't like the "no no no yes" stereotype, and they had Kakeru play to that one too many times imo. but. I wish we could get rid of that trope, and I REALLY wanted Kakeru to initiate at least ONE kiss (or at least for us to get one that wasn't dead-fish-y on his part, I guess), but that's about it for complaints (and I know jdorama aren't big on kisses most of the time anyway).
I'm going to miss this little show!

[Magi rewatch] Episode 7: His Name Is Sinbad [Part 1]
Oh, yeah, it was definitely the right call. I already feel less exhausted having to watch this. Should've done this from the beginning, but, well, a Pole is smart after a mistake, not before it.
Tumblr media
Me for, like, half of this goddamn year. Hot as balls. For how long, actually? October or November. Jesus. I think October, cuz November/December I was on-and-off sick. What a fucking time to be alive.
Tumblr media
The characters tend to look kinda eh at times, but man, are the backgrounds cool.
A bunch of characters nobody cares about, but in the manga they thought they'd be able to get people to join them in Balbadd, but here they're just. Going there, I guess.
Tumblr media
He does look good.
Also SQUIRREL. And a BIRD
Tumblr media
She looks good in here.
Tumblr media
"You don't have to thank either of us! Alibaba did it, because he's a kind person!" Like, you're completely right, but also gets me how much Aladdin trusts and believes in Alibaba. And, the thing is, he isn't wrong to do so - Magi can kind of read people's Rukh, so Aladdin gets the kind of person Alibaba is on instinct. Still, F.
Also, gfdi, why does it all look so pretty. The colors get me, too.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
What a character introduction. What a legend.
It kind of reminds me. You guys know, Magi is like one of the series that's the dearest to my heart. One of the few. Which is why I get so critical of it. And it's hilarious when I think about the fact, that this AMV is the reason I watched it in the first place. I'm not kidding.
Tumblr media
"Why are you freaking out? :("
Also, gdi. Magi rewired sth in my brain, and whenever I hear Daisuke Ono I immediately think about Sinbad, it'll never stop. Did you know Jing Yuan from Honkai: Star Rail has Daisuke Ono as VA? And Wriothesley from Genshin Impact. I'm still processing that, lol. Other one I'll always recognize bc of Magi is Kaji Yuki (Alibaba). Funnily enough, he voices one of my fav Pokemon character - Clemont. Imagine my surprise. Man, maybe I do have a type.
Tumblr media
I love low quality Magi.
Tumblr media
He looks normal in the anime. Kinda nostalgic, good. Also, the wording seems to be a bit different, but mostly the sentiment remains.
Tumblr media
Agh, look how excited he is to meet another adventurer! You get it, mister, you get it!
What if Aladdin became Sinbad's Magi, hmm.
There's some yt channel that posts Kimetsu no Yaiba videos, what ifs, and then offers like three scenarios. Lastly it was what if Muzan was a Demon Slayer. Can't help but think abt it whenever I consider some what if.
Tumblr media
She smelled Hakuryuu's cooking.
Tumblr media
It really looks nice. From afar.
Huh, in the anime they don't mention how various races mingle here.
Tumblr media
Paper money. Something that Sinbad notices. Good characterization moment + good hint at what the porblem might be. Neat.
Tumblr media
Reminded me abt one of the fics that I'm writing. These goddamn towers. Two fics, actually. Though one of them is just recalling the events from the other.
Tumblr media
Anyway, back to the ep, I do think it's cool. Lots of show don't tell.
Tumblr media
Yeah. In the previous arc we've heard that Balbadd wasn't doing well, and now we get to see it.
Tumblr media
Down with the monarchy.
Tumblr media
This entire scene is still hilarious.
Tumblr media
"We're going to have to help him out, Masrur." "Damn."
Tumblr media
I love Ja'far. What a pro.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Since I had to delete it from the chapter post bc of the photo limit. Here. Morgiana & Masrur noticing each other.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Sinbad experience.
Tumblr media
Pffff
Tumblr media
The sound he makes, lmao. "Ahhhhh". He's so not getting paid enough to deal with this bs.
Also, sad: we don't have Masrur helping him :/ That was such a nice moment : (
Tumblr media
White eyes. You killed him, Sinbad. You killed your future husband.
Tumblr media
"You're Sinbad, the King of Sindria!"

idk i think having Friend Killer as a soulmark (at least before you find out the context and he really isn't one actually) since you were born would suck more XD at least with Rokudaime you can kinda brag about it lol but with F-K it's just hella awkward and worrying for the parents lol
Oh gosh XD just… hfhdhxhd
Tsunade looking at Shizune’s soulmark and deciding whoever her soulmate is they are not allowed near her, but then hearing the ‘friend-killer kakashi’ rumors and knowing that’s BS
Orochimaru seeing it on Anko while they’re training her and deciding this is absolutly none of their buisness if that’s her thing
Dai worrying over Gai because that does NOT look good for his son’s future, but then when he’s gone watching from the ninja after life and realizes it’s Kakashi, he just smiles and congradulates himself and Sakumo for knowing those two would go well together
Iruka’s parents trying to teach him to keep tf away from anyone with a nickname like that because gdi that’s NOT good
yamato would be taught to ignore it, so Danzo does jot care.
Kahyo’s parents reading it and being like ‘??? Excuse?’ And trying to teach their daughter not to go for someone like that, but then she meets Kakashi and he’s just.. noce! XD

To Anon
Question:  Yeolmaes hate baekhyun mostly because his stans are the ones sending most hate to chanyeol and baekhyun never said anything about it, instead he kinda validated their feelings by not showing up to the box premiere, avoiding mentioning him at all costs and straight up saying he doesnt like musical movies Understand that yeolmaes have to deal with hundreds of hate messages written in Korean everyday and they are at a breaking point considering most of them come from bbh’s own fans How is it possible to like chanyeol and baekhyun at the same time in a situation like this? Do you even take chanyeol feelings into consideration? No? Not even once? He has to deal with thousands of nasty comments coming from bbh fanbase while bbh comes on Twitter reminding them how cute they are and how much he loves them If you cbkists choose to ignore this and baekhyun is actually in a relationship with Pcy it just means that you all couldn’t give less of a shit about chanyeol as a person with feelings and are just a bunch of selfish pricks
Answer: Anon...sighs you can't see something from one point of view only really, but it's okay i get you, ok so let us talk about this one by one: 1. You said: Yeolmaes hate baekhyun the most because his stans are the ones sending most hate to chanyeol and baekhyun never say anything about it -When you perceive the assumption that baekhyun stans hate chanyeol the most, did u believe it right or did u question it, like why its baekhyun stans, if its true then since when they started hating chanyeol, and why do they hate chanyeol, does their reason make sense or its just stupid like how other bbhls who hate other exo members too (for example some bbhls hate jd bcs both are main vocalists and they think jd is stealing bh's spot as a vocalist) -But at the same time, we cant find the exact number that would proof that bbhls are the ones who hate chanyeol the most, we only can see what twitter shows us, and it happened to me too that i see bbhls throw hate to chanyeol the most -But at the same time too, I've been seeing yeolmaes who throw hate at baekhyun too since years ago without me knowing the reason why they do that, and I keep questioning it everytime why yeolmaes suddenly started hating baekhyun so bad, when did it start -AND at the same time too, I've been seeing other exo member stans throwing hate to either baekhyun or chanyeol -But my twitter algorithm is the same as you anon, it shows that bbhls hate chanyeol the most and yeolmaes hate baekhyun the most, so I do often make the assumption that bbhls and yeolmaes are always on each other's throat -But yet again, I don't know who started hating the first time, is it bbhls, is it yeolmaes, and why they did that -This knowledge is unknown to me so based on this, to me the most right way is to think that both sides are wrong because hating is always the worse way to deal with things, the fact that we know is chanyeol and baekhyun are good friends they are always there for each other, usually when ppl see im saying this they will say its fake and its fan service, but people can choose to not see what they dont wanna see, so the easiest proofs to prove that chanyeol and baekhyun are good friends is one chanyeol is the only member in exo that baekhyun wished happy birthday on his instagram, two both of them support each other for candy and 1 billion views by coming to the mv bts, three baekhyun and chanyeol go to vocal lessons together, four chanyeol had taken a photo with all of baekhyun's bucheon friends before so in that photo baekhyun, chanyeol, and baekhyun's bucheon friends (istg if people see these as fan service then it doesnt make sense right?)
Before we go to the next thing, I have this assumption that chanyeol and baekhyun are two members that have the highest popularity in sk, either they are the top 3 or top 4, and my reason is bcs everytime there are individual album/photobook covers sold offline, their individual covers sold out the fastest, everytime, even with nature republic stuffs, ok so there's this possibility that we keep seeing yeolmaes and bbhls on each other's throat everytime bcs well both of them are two of the most popular exo members in SK (i mean even in china, chanyeol and baekhyun are the most popular members with sehun, there's data for this)
2. You said: Baekhyun never say anything about this, he kinda "validated their feelings by not showing up to the box premiere and voiding mentioning him at all costs and straight up saying he doesnt like musical movies"
-First of all, let's look at a bigger picture, is there any idol in the k-industry like ANY IDOL that ever said to their fans "guys don't say that to my member" IS THERE. ANY.? what I know is: there is none, none at all zero zip nothing, and if there's at least one or two idols, then its just one or two idols right -And thats it anon, thats just about it, idols dont have the absolute freedom of speech, they never do, and its hurting them all of them, all they can say is: "I love EXO, I miss EXO members the most, EXO is my home" and most solo stans who see that will just say "its bs" yet solo stans are also asking for proofs that the members relationship are fine -None of these kpop idols ever say anything about hate speech from their fans that are thrown to their friends/bandmates, and this kind of thing happens in every fandom anon, not just chanyeol and baekhyun, it's just how korean entertainment industry is, idols never have the ultimate freedom to say or do anything
3. Not showing up to the box premiere, avoiding mentioning him, saying he doesnt like musical movies -That not showing up to the box premiere really changed the way you think huh anon, yeah I think that event also changed many yeolmaes' perspectives sighs okay, not showing up to the box premiere is like a very open information we can easily see it from one tweet that didnt mention baekhyun name during that event -BUT for other cases "avoid mentioning him" and "saying he doesnt like musical movies" is not a very open information, by this i mean u have to read alllll of the things baekhyun say, look at the trans for all of his vlives/shows/etc, read the whole trans for baekhyun's last vlive before he goes to the military, so u or other yeolmaes after that situation are either trying to "search for baekhyun's act or words that deny fans opinion about how they hate each other" bcs u still "have hope in baekhyun" or "search for baekhyun's act or words that support my perspective about how he hates chanyeol and never defend cy from bbhls" -"Validate their feelings" how? once again, it's just what bbhls think, did baekhyun do and say all of that because well "his motive is to support bbhls that hate chanyeol" and who are you, who are we to say that, are we our bias? can we go inside their minds and goes aha! this is why they do this and that! well no. because once again thats the entertainment industry, the chances for idols to "explain" all of the bad situations esp when its about how their fans act, is very veryyy low, or like the chance is even minus
-We are just fans who watch them on cam, without knowing what's on their mind or what is everything they are going through behind the camera, we know nothing, all of our opinions are just perspective that our mind created that turned into assumptions, we could never know the truth because kpop industry prevents their artist from showing the truths that may "hurt" people, who actually deserve to be hurt, but those people are the "money makers" for the company, it's bad it's toxic it's awful that just bcs they have to "maintain the money makers" idols can never get that freedom -Same goes with baekhyun, gdi we dont know him, we really really dont know him, his mind, his motives and reasons for his actions, who are we to judge him and call him selfish? -But what we know is baekhyun helping to defend chanyeol when that fake rumor was spreading by tweeting the mosquito thing, what we know is baekhyun and chanyeol doing their choreo for DFTF together that was practiced since early 2021 until before they enlist, what we know is baekhyun saying chanyeol he's fine when fans asked on japanese fansign, what we know is them still doing vocal lessons together, going to vocal lesson tgt too on march after the box premiere (bcs chanyeol's hair was grey in the vlog) before they enlist, what we know is baekhyun loving and singing "tomorrow" tgt with chanyeol, so what we know is they keep spending time with each other as bandmates and friends 
"do you ever take chanyeol's feeling into consideration, you all couldnt give less of a shit about chanyeol as person with feelings and are just a bunch of selfish pricks" 1. Baekhyun tweeting that mosquito tweet to defend chanyeol -Responses>> People went: oh he's just defending himself, he's being selfish once again, he doesnt care about chanyeol 2. Baekhyun answering fans question about chanyeol's condition -Responses>> No one translated this after few days OP has translated Original post Jan 29: https://twitter.com/tomo_exo/status/1355177834185064451?s=20 First ever translation on FEB 13 (AND FROM A CBKIST): https://twitter.com/NTH_2705/status/1360626904756228096?s=20 Also this cbkist isnt always active translating, I know her, she's not on Twitter as much as other trans account and she doesnt understand japanese, so she actually found the post on weibo and translated it from chinese thats why it was translated 2 weeks after, but before her? does ANY account translate this? well no. 3. Baekhyun and Chanyeol doing choreo in DFTF tgt -No BTS, no anything from SM, people who hate seeing them tgt can ignore easily, chanbaek stans can only watch the part over and over 4. Baekhyun and Chanyeol practicing their hitting the woah part in just usual mv -Again no one commented about this, except chanbaek stans bcs this is easily ignored 5. Lesson With Baekhyun -Responses>> yeolmaes went "chanyeol don't do this, chanyeol im not watching this, chanyeol what are you doing, i want chanyeol only, oh god why is chanyeol with him again, chanyeol is feeding chanbaekist, his fans (bbhls) gonna come at us again, fuck this im not watching" and bbhls went "the translation is wrong look theyre trying to sabotage bbh" and yeolmaes replied with "good for him haha, ya serves him right for being selfish" and also "why is it always chanyeol who does this kind of thing and never baekhyun? oh right because hes selfish hes sm golden boy he never gonna do this bcs his channel is own by SM" "look he promoted kyoongtube even in the nng" "look SM posted kyoongtube but not NNG u can see whos the mistreated one him"
All of those 5 things I mentioned, even tho some are small things....they got mostly negative responses from yeolmaes and bbhls who are not cbkist dont they? The things that prove chanyeol and baekhyun are always there for each other and they are bandmates, true friends, nothing change between them And yet, what did bbhls and yeolmaes do? Throw negative shits and comments to those things, esp Lesson With Baekhyun, and until now still hate Baekhyun... when Lesson With Baekhyun, is a vlog recorded by Chanyeol alone, he taped his phone in the car, he added Candy MV BTS with Baekhyun calling him "chanyeol ah" and baekhyun smiling while holding the food, a vlog where he praised baekhyun's vocals, prepared playlist for him, sing tomorrow together with him, laughing during their vocal lesson, and just...doing things tgt
And yet people still call it a fanservice? feeding chanbaekist? baekhyun is still selfish? when chanyeol worked hard preparing that vlog, providing it for us, baekhyun and chanyeol practicing their part tgt for DFTF, baekhyun tweeting the mosquito tweet
When Chanyeol and Baekhyun have done so many things together, after the fake rumor, after the box premiere, proving they are still good friends... so do you even take chanyeol's feelings into consideration? oh wait not just feelings, his efforts, his time, him uploading to NNG about him hanging out with Baekhyun, have you ever take that to consideration? or just ignore all those facts because "whatever i still hate baekhyun" 
So two options: 1. Hating and keep hating and telling others selfish because yall hate the fact that baekhyun never do this and that, that yall wanted him to do, but actually we don't know the reason why, we just don't know anything at all, accept assumptions that "baekhyun validated fans feeling" and thats according to you, your mind, your perspective, oh wait... it's all about you? 2. Know and accept and support and love, chanyeol and baekhyun's friendship, because thats what we know, thats what themselves say to us, thats what themselves been doing, accepting the fact that "chanyeol and baekhyun are good friends" and know we are not in the position to turn the friendship into bad relationship bcs what? bcs it comes from chanyeol and baekhyun themselves, not yeolmaes, not bbhls, not even exols, and so be a fan that know chanyeol and baekhyun have good relationship, keep reporting bbhls who said bad things about cy and vice versa, bcs what? we never want chanyeol to see that after lesson with baekhyun, apparently his "fans" still think baekhyun, his best friend and bandmate, is still a selfish person who doesnt care about chanyeol, so chanyeol is happy that we know and appreciate his relationship with baekhyun, with exo members because we care about chanyeol's feelings, because we trust his actions, his words, and we love everything he does, and also we love everyone around chanyeol that he loves
So choose... and last thing, are social media and on cam interactions, are enough to "measure" a group of people's relationships, so if your best friend never post any picture of you on their instagram and never tell stories about you to other people who well, actually are also strangers, living thousand miles away from you and your best friend, then it's okay for those strangers to say that your best friend hates you? avoiding to be affiliated with you? a selfish person? Have people ever think that it's tiring that just because you're a celebrity, you have to show everything, including minds, feelings, emotions, actions, personal reasons, to your fans? For them to be validated? And for them to turn into facts? Well, at least for me, the things I don't know then I don't know, I don't have the right to judge, and the things I know, especially positive things, that came from my own idols, that's what I'm holding on, that's what I support. *extra note: exo members always call us as EXO-Ls, not bbhls, not yeolmaes, not anyone, but EXO-Ls, so when they say they love us, "loved ones" are those who say themselves are EXO-Ls, who loves EXO as 9 members, because that's the fact
Have a good day anon, stay safe and healthy, God bless you, spread love and not hate

Boys reaction to MC who never have date before meeting them. Like, the boys as MC's first love.
My first HC on here and I was memeing half the time while writing it. Included what the boys would do after hearing this news as well because why not. I’m not a Lucien fan but lord have mercy on my soul, I couldn’t help making his romantic af. He is the ideal boyfriend/date minus the l i e s that come in the MS and I hate it. All the crossed out stuff is just commentary because I couldn’t help myself. Hope you enjoy~ Thank you for your ask <3
How the MLQC boys react to being MC’s first love below the cut~
Victor:
Follows with some snarky comment after he calls her “Dummy”.
Let’s be real here, if he doesn’t call her dummy immediately, then something is wrong. Reminds me of when we streamed the first episode of MLQC and we were all yelling “CALL US BAKA” the second Victor came on screen.
While he seems cool and collected on the outside, you can hear the computer shutdown sound play on the inside.
To him, this is a shocking confession.
Victor: I’m not surprised a dummy like you hasn’t been in a serious relationship before.
Victor, internally: How has she never been in a serious relationship before??
He’s not very good at expressing himself honestly through his words but he truly admires MCs hardworking nature.
He finds that very attractive in a woman and is surprised that other men in the line of business haven’t taken their shot with her yet. it’s because they can feel your death stare on the back of their heads, kind sir
One thing he struggles with is being himself. He tries to act like everything is in his control all the time.
Because of this, upon hearing MCs confession, he invites her to a fancy dinner at his penthouse insert Victor’s Dazzling Date because THATS ALL THAT MATTERS. Jkjk haha... unless...
He wants to impress her as much as possible even though he knows deep down that she doesn’t care about what a person has and rather how they are as a person
BUT ALAS. The stress be real for her first boyfriend.
He wants her to know she made a good decision without verbally telling her out of his own bitch mouth I love you, please call me baka so he goes over the top with their first date.
Basically pulls a Mr. Krabs when taking Mrs. Puff on a date. Just add shades to Mr. Krabs to represent Victor’s “I’m calm. I’m chill. I’m all good. We vibin out here.”
Tumblr media
All MC wants from him is his honest and genuine thoughts. and a lifetime stock of pudding because good god a girl has chocolate needs
MC eventually figures out Victor’s intentions with all the gifts he rains on her because hE dOesNt nEeD tHeM he can’t give her anything more than a cup of pudding up front
MC knows this and accepts the secret gifts with a smile.
She sends a gift in return to his office the following day along with a thank you for the wonderful date.
Can you hear that? It’s the sound of Victor’s heart rate slowing to the average persons.
Kiro:
insert pikachu meme
This boy is mind blown.
“How have you never been in a relationship before??? That can’t be true!”
Kiro sees the good in everyone, so hearing that MC has never been in a relationship before him is
Tumblr media
He gives her a bright smile and playfully hugs her from behind.
The two of them laugh together as he whispers genuinely in her ear,
“I promise to make you happy. You won’t regret it.”
He immediately drags her off to Loveland’s Amusement Park, where they spend the whole day together.
Rides, snacks, games, you name it, they did it all.
Kiro naturally spoils MC without putting much thought to it.
It’s like a reflex for him. It’s just who he is as a person. Always wants to share the happiness in the world with the people he cares about.
As for how anxious he is after hearing the news about being MC’s first love, he is screaming at a pitch only dogs can hear.
Almost 100% of the time he has a smile on his face and even convinces himself that he’s not worried about it.
But he is.
It only hits him when he thinks about another man taking MC away from him after seeing her talking with another guy.
MC will catch him without his carefree smile at times and eventually confronts him about it.
He shows her a wide smile and says there’s nothing to worry about.
L I E S. BABIE LEMME HOLD YOU I PROMISE YOU DONT NEED TO WORRY.
After a few attempts of trying to get Kiro to open up about it, he gives in and says he’s worried he’s not good enough for her HAHAHHA, GOOD ONE KIRO
MC, however, turns it around on him
MC: I’m afraid IM the one who isn’t good enough for you.
They both smile and embrace each other, knowing they’ll get through any little concerns like this.
Gavin:
He knows.
We’re talking about the boy who has been in love with MC since high school; Who has protected her behind the scenes ever since he laid eyes on her.
He would know if she had been in a previous or current relationship.
It only comes as a shock when she says she’s never been interested in anyone else romantically before. Lies. Have you seen the other suitors, MC. In a world where guys are that hot, you must’ve had at least 1 crush, c’mon sis.
Gavin respected her personal boundaries and never looked into her personal affairs so he had very little knowledge of her views on other guys.
He gets a little bit nervous, since he believes her standards must be high if she hasn’t been interested in anyone else before.
Does the full on soldier oath, bend the knee cliche which includes “I promise to always protect you” and “Nobody will ever be good enough for you”
Mc: Gavin no...
Gavin: NOBODY WILL EVER BE GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU.
Spoiler alert: You are waayyyyy too good for me, Gavin.
He doesn’t have too much anxiety over the thought of being MC’s first love though since he’s very good at staying true to himself and knows MC is one to admire that about others.
Gavin is a quiet guy in general. He’s more of an observer and watches MC to take note of what she enjoys.
When he sees her eyes shine bright after seeing a delicious dessert cafe, he offers to take her. He makes sure to express how he also wants to go since he knows she won’t accept unless he is interested as well.
Boy literally has no interests the moment he’s with MC. He is essentially that vine
Tumblr media
Doesn’t even wait until the question is over and just “Absolutely. Let’s do it”
MC: But I haven’t even said anything yet...
He isn’t much different from how he is now. Has around the same amount of anxiety just from being in MCs presence.
Boy just wants to PROTECC and is always panicking on the inside but tries to remain calm.
He is very good at calming his anxiety though since he’s had so long to understand what MC values and knows she just loves people for themselves.
That’s all he needs.
Lucien:
His eyes widen slightly at MCs confession.
It’s nothing too mind blowing for him since he knows how refined MC is and how dedicated she is to her work.
It’s still surprising to him that nobody has tried to sweep her off her feet yet.
With how kind MC is, it would be hard for her to refuse a date with a gentleman.
Lucien gently presses a kiss to MCs hand upon hearing her confession.
Lucien: I am honored to be given the opportunity TO WOO to take such a beautiful lady out on a date~ AND MORE PLEASE
Lucien is the definition of a gentleman shhhh we aren’t speaking of current chapters in the main route Lucien. Cover your eyes. Pretend you do not see.
With little to no anxiety showing on his face after the reveal that he is MCs first love, he insists on taking her out to a nice restaurant the most classy and romantic 5 star restaurant Loveland City has to offer as a way to thank her for dealing with his bs (both his bullshit and black swan hahaha I’m so funny oml) being given the opportunity to treat her as a beautiful young lady should be treated.
He’s also more on the less anxious side of being MCs first love.
Lucien is a traditional man and does stuff by the book.
Because of this, he respects and likes the idea of being MCs first love.
He doesn’t go over the top yet isn’t cliche with dates and little actions.
He knows exactly what to say and when to say it. Though he may struggle with being openly honest about his own thoughts and feelings, he tries his best to express himself for MC. a lot of the time he just assumes talking to her about his personal affairs would bring her down.
This, however, gets better overtime as they continue to date.
They spend a lovely evening at dinner together and take a midnight stroll through the city oh god city stroll PTSD
He gently wraps his jacket around her bare shoulders with a soft smile as he thanks her once again for believing in him believing he is worthy of her
Bonus:
Shaw:
Shaw, smirking: Is that so?
Oohhhhh you know what that smirk does to me. DOWN BOY D O W N.
He’s surprised but his reaction is very mutual.
His internal thoughts are more on the line of “Hmm I’m her first boyfriend, aye?” and “OYA OYA”
He very likely most definitely places his hand on the wall beside her head and leans in closely to get a reaction from her as he growls,
Shaw: So that means you really like me, yeah? I’m making this way too hot gdi. Shaw stans please enjoy your food
MC looks up to see that same playful smirk resting on his face.
highkey don’t know how to respond because Im just “ok think of 3 things she would probably say and go from there” while my brain just computer error sound
MC: and what about yourself? I’m sure there are tons of girls throwing themselves at you yet you choose me.
He pulls away and places his hands in his pockets with a chuckle.
Shaw: I’ve had my fair share before.
iVe HaD mY fAiR sHarE bEfoRe MY ASS
I’m convinced he’s had one time things with girls purely for information or he isn’t the least bit interested in relationships because he thrives on stimulation and entertainment and nOboDy iS gOoD eNouGh plus he literally asks what people do on dates when taking mc out in his first date in game SO
Either way, this is a LIE. The man can’t relationship for the life of him so he has no RIGHTS to tease her.
Just let him believe or you can try to tease him about it in hopes of getting a little pouty face out of him.
Honestly, their first date would just be the first date we got in the game and nobody can convince me otherwise.
Shaw is a wild child and doesn’t care for romantic dates. at least that’s what he wants you to think
A little insight on his character: He’s very blunt and easily pushes people away all the while keeping them close enough to gather intel. He doesn’t get emotionally attached to anyone and makes sure it’s mutual on both ends. Personal relationships only drag him down, especially in his line of work. He prioritizes other things before relationships which makes him so damn FRUSTRATING BUT I SWEAR I WILL CRACK YOU OPEN LIKE A WALNUT JUST YOU WATCH ME.
With that being said, after actually being in a relationship with MC for a while and opening up about their personal lives more, Shaw can be very romantic. He may be awkward for a bit at first since he literally doesn’t know what a date is but he gets there eventually.
He’s still full of fun but is also very gentle and makes sure MC is enjoying herself.
I got sidetracked with the actual HC on this one but Shaw stans need food I NEED FOOD

This whole bs transphobic super straight thing is making me laugh so hard. Like. Can there be a term for the opposite? It has been years since I have been interested in someone who is 100% in being cis. Now with lockdown the two friends I'm still talking to aren't even 100% cis??? Like I just am not attracted to cis people anymore, or more accurately people who aren't pushing gender at least a bit. Ngl I kinda blame my (cishet) sister bc I looked up to her so much when we were kids but from ages 5-13 my sister 100% presented as a boy. Short hair, brother hand me downs, etc. That was what I grew to be comfortable with and I still am gdi

this is an outta nowhere question but what are your thoughts on Joker in Smash about a year since he was added? I've heard some folks say the reason the Persona fandom got so toxic is bc Smash got involved and I wanted to know what you thought since you've been in it way longer than P5 and Joker in Smash
Short answer: Yes AND No. 
Long answer (it’s me of course it’s gonna be under the cut due to length 8U):
I’mma be honest, there’s always toxic fans. I know Smash Fans (and Nintendo fans in general) haven’t exactly been peaches, esp when it comes to Twitter (which I think is also an issue atm). But there were toxic fans before than and there’ll be toxic fans later. It’s just life tbh. (dunno where to put this but I’ll put it here: Twitter nowadays is like 2012-2015ish Tumblr, different being Tumblr was a bit more hiveminded and if you disagreed with a popular fandom opinion you.....were kinda bullied let’s be honest so no one could really say their opinions. While Twitter now it’s not a hivemind but instead two sided extremist that you need to choose. Both toxic and similar but just a taaaaad bit different, I’d probs take the two extremist sides over the hivemind if I had to chose tho...even tho Tumblr had better content during that era than Twitter right now imo but that’s in general and not Persona only. 8U Tumblr’s REALLY calmed down since the porn ban I’m not gonna lie, and ironically that’s roughly around the time that Twitter started getting shitty. So like....kinda saying there’s a correlation, I think a lot of toxic tumblr people probably migrated to twitter, and while there’s toxic fans everywhere it feels like a lot gather on Twitter so it really highlights the fandom there sadly). 
From my experience (which is from P4 PS2 era onward, I missed the pre-P4 P3 PS2 era stuff but apparently there were waifu wars which from what I’ve found I probs would’ve just classified as “shipping war” stuff rather than waifu wars....and it seemed liked standard shipping war stuff from back then), the bigger a fandom grows the more fans it obviously attracts, but that also means more toxic fans too. And that’s why I say yes and no for the smash community, yes because they did attract more fans (and their community seems to be a bit toxic atm, like I get expressing your wants to a company and I support that! but the INSTANT you don’t get a specific character announced for the fighter pass and instead of just being like “oh golly darn :(” but instead “***** this place ***** Nintendo you all suck ****** *slur* *slur*” yeah no that’s a little....you gotta take a step back buddy, so yeah I’m sure there’s a bit more toxic fans in that fandom atm but they are also a BIG ASS FANDOM so I’m not surprised), but it’s also just the cause and effect of the fandom getting bigger in general.
It happened when P4 got it’s anime (btw anime fans ya still valid and are a Persona fan, just keep in mind if you wanna talk lore just know you did watch a very abridged version of the game so be aware you might have somethings wrong cause of that.....cause I’ve seen it happen.....DX btw let’s play watchers are also real Persona fans and I’d say even people who just like Joker in Smash are at least Joker fans and that’s ok too enough gate keeping guys DX), it happened when we started getting spinoffs, kinda with the P3 movies (only really cause FeMC fans were salty or P3 fans upset what was cut/changed, but it wasn’t on any toxic level tbh just normal complaints, I think the fact it was a movie instead of an anime bypassed newer fans than with P4/5 animes), it happened when P5 solidified it into the mainstream gaming market (I’ll stand by P4 helped break Persona into it via all the other avenues of mainstream, with P5 finally latching the main series into mainstream games.....I say mainstream cause spinoffs are looking the same as pre mainstream which.....>.> *shrugs* could be better imo), it happened with P5′s anime, and it happened with Smash Bros. And tbh I’m sure it happened or will happen with the Steam community (and Switch/Xbox if it ever goes there too) and P4G (P4 fans go through the same cycle of BS constantly, most of which I believe originated with the anime generation, that it’s hard to tell if there was an uptick or not). And it’ll probs get an uptick again with P6, and then P6′s anime. And maybe manga cause maybe P6 fans like the P5 fans and won’t listen when people say “don’t get attached to the manga name it’s probs not gonna be used so hold off till the anime” but hey let’s have drama for no reason cause we need it. 8U (obvie you can still like the manga name, it’s more for people complaining about name changes or not getting why Atlus just didn’t keep the manga name even tho an explanation is probs within arm’s reach and they were warned beforehand)
*sighs* Sorry back on topic, each time the fandom grows so will toxic fans. Tbh I feel like the phrase “toxic fans” are thrown around a lot. And it’s esp used for only....”haters” it feels like and I don’t think that’s right (cause it can be fans too), it just feels like ANY negativity (even constructive and kept reigned in by certain users) is viewed as that. Like take me, I’m sure I’m probs labeled as a “toxic fan” due to be being a Megaten/Persona fan but disliking P5 and talking shit/calling it out. But I try my damnedest to do that in the appropriate places (ie my personal blog, maybe a confessions place, or a thread/board that’s expressing negatives only OR it’s explaining/expressing pros and cons type of stuff, I find that to be the best because it keeps people who want to vent away from people who want to gush so no war happens, not saying I am perfect or you HAVE to follow this or you are toxic, it’s what I decided to ascribe to and find it works well and good enough and it gives me a better fandom experience). Aka, I don’t go on twitter to someone’s fanart of Yukari or Makoto and trash the character because I’m not a freaking asshole (or in this case a ~toxic fan~). But this also applies to the “fans” as well who will talk about something they like (character/game) but the ONLY  way they can raise it up is by tearing down something else (other character/game), it’s really rude and also toxic as well. Negativity is not inherently bad all the time, and Positivity is not inherently good all the time (with positivity it’s more of giving yourself a break from it rather than saying something positive can be bad at times, tho I’m sure there are times that-that has happened but it’s 2:30 am and I don’t want to think of an example for that). It’s how it’s used/expressed. I see the Twitter community trying to combat the “negativity” by trying to only spread “positivity” and I’m afraid 1) any negative expression, even constructive, will be scorned (I guess I’m afraid of us going back to a hivemind mentality again), but most importantly 2) the people trying to head it are going to be burned out and it’ll hurt them mentally (I do not want it to happen obvie, but I know personally it can wear you down which is why I’m concerned). Don’t get me wrong I love what they are doing/trying to do, but I think we’re generalizing the word “negativity” and “positivity” a bit too much and it’s just raising a few red flags for me (I’m just hoping I’m being paranoid/overanalyzing in this case). 
Uhhh there was one last thing I wanted to address.....Oh yeah gate keeping. I know you asked about Smash but this stuff is kinda related and hey think of it as a history lesson for the Persona fandom (or at least Nusona cause I didn’t have a game system in the 90s ;_; plus wee little me wouldn’t have been able to find P1/2 fandoms back then due to me not really using the internet like I do nowadays till around P3 was probs released). Plus you know how long winded I am so this is kinda what you sign up for, 3 am ramblings of overexplaining~! But gdi I will try to cover all the bases and get my point across in....some fashion. 8U
But yeah, Gatekeeping in relation to the Smash fans, cause I see Persona fans shit on new fans that got into Persona through Smash (I know above I said Joker fans are valid Joker fans rather than Persona fans, but I’m assuming they’ve yet to play/watch Persona and are just aware of Joker and are a fan of him vs the fans who saw Joker and then watch/played the games to get into the fandom. One set is a fan of a character vs the other set got into a franchise because of said character. Like I wouldn’t say I’m a FE fan cause I liked Marth/Roy in SSBM, which is why I have that distinction myself BUT if you wanna call yourself a Persona fan that’s valid, you’re valid, it’s whatever, I don’t really care about the details that much, I just have two categories for convenience). Anyway I don’t think it’s fair to shit on them. Same as I don’t think it’s fair to shit on anime only or manga only fans. Or if they got into the fandom through Nusona (Oldsona is P1/2, Nusona is P3-5 atm). Or Oldsona. Or another Megaten game. 
Maybe it’s cause I came from P4, where it got shit on cause it wasn’t (”dark”) like P3, it wasn’t (”dark”) like Oldsona, it wasn’t “dark” like other Megaten games, it got shit on every way to Sunday for daring to try to have a more lightened mood at times (3 murders happen, we see 3 dead bodies, a 6 yo dies onscreen, we have characters going through intense existential crises, we deal with characters mourning through death as well as other relatable struggles, basically shows our teammates die one by one in the final boss, having a chance to hear Naoto’s death scream on the phone if you don’t stop Adachi, just the “you didn’t save the person” phone calls in general, talks about society’s toxic gender roles and how it can negatively effect a person both to an extreme extent and minor, god forbid they eat an animal cracker to lighten the mood, and this isn’t counting the dark shit that happens in the spinoffs). As if P1/2/3 don’t have comedy, or any other Megaten game, all the demons are freaking weird of course there is comedy. Oh and it also got shit on for going mainstream first, and not even counting that it got shit on for spinoffs (which P3 was included but no P3 gets a pass for some reason), and the fact that it was shit on for not being P5 (before and a little while after P5 came out) because it wasn’t “dark” like P5 (fdksjafajkfljafj P5 has it’s moments, esp with Shiho, tho P4D did it first and went through with it, but seriously each game has it’s own light and dark moments and one isn’t better than the other only cause they have more of one than the other). And....*sigh* let’s just say thank god that I was able to buy other Megaten games right before the flood gates of shit came in, cause I dunno if I would’ve wanted to give it a chance if I had to hear my fav game shit on constantly. I say I dunno cause tbh I was craving more after P4 so badly I still would’ve probs gotten into it regardless of the fandom, I wanted more from the franchise even if it wasn’t 100% like P4. 
But tbh I don’t blame P5 fans, anime fans, or Smash fans for maybe not wanting to get into the rest of the series. I get old fans of whatever feeling like they are...I dunno being invaded? By new people in the fandom. Or their afraid of new fans not fully understanding the franchise (hey guys that’s where you teach people instead of try to passive aggressively try to get them to leave the fandom I dunno maybe make posts to educate instead of trying to push away??? 030). And change is hard and yeah. And maybe you don’t like the new game (keep in mind there’s a diff between saying “*insert* Sux” and “I don’t like *insert* because...” one’s shitting on something and the other is constructive), but hey shitting on the game they like is probs not gonna win them over to your fav game sflkdjafkjafja Educate and be helpful, don’t gatekeep and drive people away. That’s a sure fire way for us to lose this franchise (remember we almost lost Atlus all together, but it was able to get a 2nd life thanks to P4 saving it....tbh probably wouldn’t have ever gotten P5 nor SMTV nor any spinoffs if not for P4′s success with its game and anime, this is both a history lesson and a word of warning since it already almost happened once). 
Tldr; Smash didn’t help but it’s really just the fact the fandom got bigger and bigger fandom means we also end up getting more toxic fans mixed in. Twitter now is basically 2012-2015!Tumblr (diff is Tumblr’s was a hivemind vs Twitter’s now extremist two sides only thing), and Tumblr’s porn ban probably migrated a lot of their toxic fans to Twitter which probs hasn’t helped any fandoms on there. Negativity in general isn’t an issue, it’s if you’re being an outright asshole where it’s an issue. Don’t be an asshole in general, if you need to vent then vent where you need to, if you wanna gush then gush were you need to and without bringing anyone/anything down obvie. You are a Persona fan, regardless of where/how you started. Don’t gatekeep for the love of god, or so help me Jack Frost will sneak into your house and smack you in the face with a snowball (and if he doesn’t then I will.....jk...half jk 8U). Also *sprinkles of (allusions to? I dunno I tried it’s 3 am and my 2nd try on answering this and the first one was just as long) Silly’s Persona fandom history lessons throughout the post*

i shall ask the same for you; one vibe check for owen carvour!!
Bless you for this 
Owen Carvour: VIBE CHECK
a song that reminds me of them: It Was A Sin by The Revivalists. I count it more as a Curtwen song in general, but it fits his aesthetic. Same with Poison & Wine by The Civil Wars. 
what they smell like: Really expensive cologne. Not the stuff that smells super stuffy and uptight, but the stuff that smells warm and spice-filled. 
an otp: If I ever answer this question for him with anything other than Curtwen, PLEASE yell at me
a notp: I legitimately cannot see him with anyone else so like, there’s your answer.
favorite platonic/familial relationships: I’d like to think he knew Mrs. Mega and had a cordial relationship with her where he would offer to do the dishes or listen to her vent about things like laundry or Janice. I wish we could have seen some of that. Also, I feel like we need to talk about the way he puts up with the Baron’s bs so effortlessly. It’s far from a friendship, but I think it’s so comical that Owen put up with his bs for four years somehow.
a headcanon that is popular in the fandom but that i disagree with: It’s not super popular, but I’ve noticed a lot that people mark Owen as someone who is not emotional. Like he’s evil and cold and that’s it. He showed so much emotion pre-fall, and even though he was colder post-fall, there still was SO much under there. You could hear it when his voice cracked on the stairs and see it when he dropped his gun lower when Curt spoke about their ‘secret.’ You can’t tell me Owen wasn’t an emotional mess inside and three seconds from screaming at what was happening. He was hurting.  
the position they sleep in: When he’s on his own, Owen lays on his side, legs slightly bent at the knee, hand propping up his pillow. He also only sleeps on the left side of the bed, even if it’s a bigger bed. It’s his side. When sleeping w/ Curt there, Owen usually is spooning him or at least facing him on his side. He sometimes likes keeping his space, but he eventually finds his way over to Curt in sleep. He feels safer, and like Curt is safer, if he does. On harder nights, though, he has Curt hold him. Even your friendly stealthy spy needs a hug every now and then.
a crossover au i’d love to see them in: It’d be cheesy af but give me a Disney prince film with these boys. Also because I think it would be funny: give me a Glee AU with them. I want to see it. Let me know where these two would end up in McKinley (or Dalton, let’s be real).
my favorite outfit they’ve ever worn: Owen wears the same thing the whole show (gdi Owen) so behold, a pic where I think he looks pretty good:

finally watching Ant-Man and the Wasp on Netflix, and...huh.
1) I thought it’d be nice to be marginally more caught up on the MCU, but...I couldn’t help but nitpick the really handwavey comic book logic trying to pass itself off as international law because what even. 
No, seriously, what kind of bs is this. ‘Sokovian Accords’ my foot that stuff takes time and I only half-assed my research on the legal process because time constraints but even I know that wouldn’t fly. 
I mean— don’t get me wrong, I know that Scott broke a lot of stuff in Germany. I have a vague idea of what he would’ve probably been charged with after the while Civil War fiasco. But what I’m seeing feels off, especially with the ‘only in the MCU would this seem like a good idea’ way that Hank Pym and Hope Van Dyne seem to think that going on the lam is the answer to their problems. 
Like, I know it’s been a while since I saw Ant-Man, but...isn’t Pym Tech a thing? Kinda like how the MCU seems to have forgotten that Stark Industries exists, actually, or that Hank Pym would’ve had at least an idea of business law if nothing else. I know that this use of logic would’ve meant things devolving into legal drama instead of action, but...well, every time I couldn’t think I’m more disappointed with all the missed opportunities I get more inspiration to write fix-its so there’s that.
but really wouldn’t they have billed Pym Tech for Germany and left it that that? Running away from this sort of problem is impossible— oh gdi brain
2) the more I watch, the more I’m wondering about the writing for it, and the characters. I liked Hope from what little I caught from the first movie, but Hank is, if possible, an even bigger jerk than in the first one. My biggest issue, though, is the way these two are so incredibly unsympathetic to everyone else around them in this one: I get that Scott made poor life choices, but...this is a recurring theme. Towards multiple characters. To the point where I’m rooting more for the antivillains than some the heroes, because finally someone other than Tony Stark’s screwups came back to haunt them and the narrative almost completely glosses over it. 
Don’t get me wrong, I love that the MCU unfridged a mom [for once]. 
But Hank has been repeatedly shown to be a jerk of the highest order, who has knowingly and deliberately gone out of his way to destroy the lives to the people he doesn’t like— and he gets a happy ending. Gets his family back together, and reconciles with the daughter he neglected for what seemed to be decades, and it’s almost like we’re expected to ignore everything he’s done? When he’s made absolutely no indication of even trying to change?
Eh. I don’t know, that just kinda ticks me off. I genuinely enjoyed everything else, but. Just that one thing. 
3) at first glance: I loved the action, and the banter...then I noticed the collateral damage. Geez. Why can’t my brain simply enjoy this movie without picking up on these things?
4) ...even though I’m aware of what happens in Endgame, that ending was not fun to watch.

[Magi reread] Night 2: His name is Alibaba.
It's my boy, it's my boy. <3
Funnily enough, when I first watched Magi I was pretty neutral about Alibaba, but upon the first rewatch/reread (several years later) he became one of my all time favorite character. My fav used to be Judar, but he's nowhere near the top anymore, lmao. Like, not even close.
Tumblr media
Damn, this really makes me wanna, as we say it in Poland, throw everything and go to Bieszczady.
Tumblr media
I love him. Baby boy, baby. Precious. Thousand flower crowns for you, and a free resurrection pass for somebody close you love, we know who they are.
Tumblr media
10 years later the guy is married to the Empress (fuck canon, I do what I want), but ok, Budel.
Tumblr media
(insert a photo of a fly doing the thing, you know the thing)
Tumblr media
Once upon a time I've mentioned that Alibaba's pretty smart, but I was too lazy to write that post, sorry. But, anyway, that's one of the things. He's actually pretty good at reading people. Nothing crazy, but he knows his shit enough to tell that in normal circumstances Budel would've been the best kind of customers for him. Kiss his ass a bit, and you're home. Alibaba isn't malicious, but he can be a bit manipulative in moments like this.
Tumblr media
I'm back on my bullshit, that is overanalyzing every page Alibaba is in, but fr, I was talking about it with Yudja ages ago, how, in general, this chapter does such an amazing job at establishing Alibaba as a character. But this moment here, it tells you So Much. Alibaba has a tremendous sense of responsibility, reaching the point of taking the responsibility for things that aren't his fault at all, in this case Aladdin being extremely disrespectful to Budel (like, Budel's an awful person, but Aladdin was still a dick). And Aladdin is a kid. Not Alibaba's kid, but a kid nonetheless, and Alibaba might be a bit rough with him, but he draws the line at actually letting him be hit. That's actually a small thing I'm a bit annoyed at anime for changing (I mean, I'm annoyed at many anime changes) - in the episode Alibaba basically throws Aladdin onto the ground with himself & while he's still the one to take the punishment, Aladdin is right next to him, whereas in the manga he does make him bow, but then pushes him away, and, again, is a bit rough later on, but nothing too hard.
Also, one more thing regarding that scene:
Tumblr media
Like mother, like son.
Tumblr media
No, you won't. You're a softie.
Tumblr media
No, you won't. But at least you're gonna have some sick connections.
Tumblr media
Aladdin, pay attention when your soon-to-be-bff is monologuing.
Tumblr media
HE SAID THE THING!
Tumblr media
Look at him. He's so happy to see them be happy.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Fuck you, too, Budel.
Not adding photos, cuz I don't want to hit the limit, again. But the desert hiacynth thing.
Tumblr media
Aladdin being done with Budel's bs.
Tumblr media
Angy.
Honestly, I've always appreciated that Alibaba doesn't throw himself into the danger right away. He's scared. He wants somebody else to do this. It's a big part of his character, both the lack of confidence in his own skills, and just simply being afraid of the danger. But even so
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He still can't stand the idea of a life being disrespected like that. If nobody eles will, then he'll have to be the one to.
(Another thing I didn't like about the anime is that it added some shots of Balbadd flashbacks, which sure added to the mystery of Alibaba's past, but also it ended up weakening this scene imo. In the anime it comes off as a result of guilt, rather than Alibaba's genuine respect for life, like it does in the manga.)
Tumblr media
Aladdin supporting his bestie with a flute solo.
Also, back to Alibaba being pretty smart, I mean, he recognizes the plant & remembers how to deal with it, like, bro, I'm after biology-related studeis, and I can recognize like four plants. At the very least, Alibaba's got pretty good memory.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The anime deprived us of loose hair Aladdin, I'm making up for it here. But also, gdi, these two. Ugh. I love them. I wish friendship was real.
Anyway, I was thinking about Leila and Alibaba being, potentially, drawn similarly to draw the parallels regarding the whole Lying thing, you know? Since that's something they both do that Aladdin notes immediately.
Also, ok, I gush about Alibaba a lot, and ya fucking bet I will keep on doing that, but, tbh, props to Aladdin for quick thinking, too. When he noticed that Ugo wasn't coming out (iirc in the anime it wasn't, like, mentioned? He just straigh up went with his turban? but I'm not sure), he was like, screw it, and used his turban, while also using the things Alibaba's told him about these flowers and wine. In these first few chapters it's pretty easy to overlook it, but Aladdin is really smart, too, and learns quickly.
Tumblr media
These guys are understandably pissed at Budel, but I also can't help but think that they're like "we just think that blond kid is neat", too. It's the Alibaba effect no one is fully immune to.
Tumblr media
Alibaba. Alibaba, no. Just take the help when people are offering it to you, don't be a dumbass. You'll get into trouble. Also, why are you so pretty. Just look at my boy :(

kakagai coffee shop au
Gai ownes a beautiful coffee shop in the middle of town. It's very traditional style with many places to sit and people welcome to hang out as long as they want to. He's never in a rush to get anyone out the doors and loves being able to talk to anyone and everyone who comes in (almost no one realizes that he's the owner when they talk to him)
Neji, Tenten and Lee are his three main workers. He has more, but they're the one's he can rely on best to come in when it's busy or to just help out even for a mi ute or two. And he make's sure everyone gets a good pay. He doesn't do the 'minimum wage' bs and because of that he has dedicated works and customers who love being there.
Kakashi only ends up going into the coffee shop one night because it's the only one that's open and he requires an extream amount of caffine to finish the work his boss has given him. He's over worked and in desperate need of a break
Gai's not there the first time Kakashi comes in, but the kind staff and good coffee definitly has Kakashi coming for seconds. Thankfully his work place isn't too far away so he decides to pop in for his afternoon coffee the next day with his work buddy Yamato.
Kakashi (poor soul) is taken back when he see's the really cute guy behind the counter behind Lee (who was the closer the night before and is working mid shift that day before his classes). Yamato's a little concerned, but Kakashi quickly pushed down the utter shock he's dealing with and orders his and Yamato's coffee. He pays so that Yamato can't actually say 'no'when he decides to tell the cute guy thatthey're going to stay in (Kakashi we have work to get back to...)
Yamato realizes pretty quickly what's going on and as soon as they're sitting down he is picking on Kakashi relentlessly. Like this poor man cannot take his eyes off of the cutie and it's so ridiculous. He'd feel bad for Kakashi if it wasn't so damn funny.
Kakashi very quickly make's this his daily coffee stop, which becomes a little concerning to Gai when he realizes just how much coffee this poor man drinks. Like at least 3 times a day he'll see Kakashi and if he's not ordering coffee he is ordering lattes and esoressoes and anything with enough Caffine to give him life again.
Over time Gai starts to wonder about this poor guy cuz he really seems to be over worked and stressed. He doesn't want to outright ask the poor man if he's ok, but he does take time to sit with him and chit chat whenever he's there and slowly Kakashi starts to talk about his work.
And boy is Gai not happy. Kakashi turns out to be working for a huge security firm (and Gai can understand why. He is sharo. Like super sharp. He can talk circles around Gai and it's amazing and fucking adorable) but his boss see's all of this intelligence and skill and over works the fuck out of him. Kakashi is constantly being handed new work when his old stuff is done, rarly gets a vacation, and works about 9-10 hours a day 5 days a week. The two days he does get off he still gets calls and questions and sometimes even has to go in to fix other people's mistakes or help out Yamato (who is equally as over worked). It's horrible. There are some days Kakashi comes in and looks like he's going to fall over.
Gai doesn'tthink about trying to convince Kakashi out of his job just yet. What he does do though is start looking up similar jobs and examining them.even going so far as to call and ask about the requirements and skill's needed in order to get the job.
After about a month of Kakashi making this his go to coffee destination, he finally gets up the courage to ask Gai out. They're chilling during lunch one day and Gai is being dorky and hilarious and he just gets this really happy smile and says "you know, there's this really nice place i like to go to for dinner once in a while. You should join me."
And gai of course just gets the dorkiest smile cuz he can't say no. He has never even seen Kalashi's face (man drinks corfee so ridiculously fast he has never seen the mask actually come off) but he has gotten to know Kakashi well and really likes him a lot.
After dinner that night Kakashi drives Gai home and offers to take him out again, and Gai had such a great night that he automaticlly says yes even though Kakashi spilled a drink on his lap and made an absolute fool of himself. He's adorable and so easily lovable.
The next day when Gai see's him Kakashi is a little peppier. A little happier and definitly into talking to gai as much as possible (which annoys yamato who is RIGHT THERE GOD DAMN IT)
Of course that happiness fades pretty fast as Kakashi gets piled with more and more work and soon Gai's getting really annoyed cuz Kakashi's being worked to death
Like this guy honestly shows up for coffee one day and actually collapses when Gai puts a hand on his shoulder. He is exhausted and done. Gai actually has to tell Neji to take care of the shop for a bit while he drives Kakashi to his place for a rest (he doesn't know where Kakashi lives so he just goes with his place as the next best option)
When Kakashi wakes up a few hours later Gai has piles of other job's as options for Kakashi and legit just hands them to him and says "you need a new one. You're going to work yourself to death and i don't want to see that."
Kakasbi is of course, reluctent he's good at his job and he knows as soon as he leaves Yamato will get stuck with all the work he's no longer there to do, but Gai is pushing. He really just wants Kakashi to have a job that appreciates him and gives him the time of he needs. That never expects him to pick up other peoples slack or over work himself.
It takes gai a few days of comvincing but after a yelling match with his boss anf a lot of pent up anger, Kakashi agrees to send out a few resumes. Within a day he has 6 diffrent job offers with better pay, better hours and promised vacation time. He actually has to go to Gai and ask which one seems the best, so they sit down at one of the tables with some tea (cux Kakashi has had more tha enough coffee gdi) and Gai helps him sort through the resume's and pick.out the best job offer
Of course their romantic life gets put on hold for a bit as Kakashi transfers over (even going so far as to find a spot for Yamato at the new job and dragging him out with him) but after a few days of Kakashi being too busy to swoop in for Coffee he shows up just after the lunch rush with a bouquet of Sunflowers and a request for dinner that evening and Gai has to say yes because Kakashi looks so happy and relaxed for the first time since they met.
And this time when they go out Kakashi is the opposite of a disaster. He's calm, his hands arn't shaking, he is attentive and listening to every word gai say's. It's beautiful and Gai knows immidiatly that this is love and the wait was absolutly worth it.

what are you favourite and least favourite things about living in canada?
Favorites
Easy access to the mountains for skiing or hiking (depending on what month it is)
Long ass road trips XD seriously, going from Edmonton to jasper for a weekend trip is six hours, and that’s in the same province
Maple syrup
Universal Health care (not perfect, but spending 100 bucks as a visitor just to go see the doctor is not fun)
Ringette. A Canadian sport I played as a kid. It’s hockey, but better XD
Least favorites
The whole ‘we’re not as racist as the USA so it’s not THAT bad’ bs. We are that bad. We’re f***ing horrible
Mosquitos. Summer hit here in jersey and I instantly prepared for mosquito season, only to realize that’s not actually a problem here
Conservatives vs liberals. They’re both terrible and I’m still pissed my province for four yrs of NDP after FOURTY years of conservatives, and immediately went ‘lol time for the shit stain conservatives again’ (seriously. Our premier is a POS)
The constant hate for Quebec, as if they’re the root of all Canadian problems. Now listen, that province has its own problems, but like… damn. Anything happens in my country and people all over blame Quebec somehow. All for the crime of being French in a predominantly English country (seriously there’s so many people pissed you have to ‘press 1 for English in Canada, which is a country with TWO national languages)
God forbid you say anything bad about Canada, because you will get torn to shreds. I’ve been told things like ‘you don’t live here anymore so you don’t get an opinion’ or ‘well it’s better here than other places’ and the like.
The list of things I hate about my country are actually pretty big. I hate a lot of things. But Gdi one thing I’m not looking forward to at all is the spiders. Those f***era get bigger every year. Going to need a blow torch to deal with them soon.

FFVII Thoughts
-This whole thing with Jessie is so much filler it’s mostly unnecessary. Plus I feel like the whole impact of Jessie and her arc and even this filler is detracted by her being a former actress. Like I mentioned before I feel like her being an actress and known for toying with men kind of takes away from her crush on Cloud and makes it seem cheap. Also even though she’s someone’s daughter who is more tech inclined, I always thought of her as an engineer herself and like a former Shinra engineer that quit would have been a more powerful message than that of an actress. Even if you keep her Dad getting sick it adds an extra layer. Like say she worked in R&D and they like pushed an experimental mako enhancement for the plant too soon and she warned it would make people sick and it made her Dad sick. There’s a lot of ways her story would have been better and fit more nicely into the narrative. :/
-Even though Jessie annoys me, Biggs is kind of okay but he comes off to me as a little cliche. Wedge is kind of a little nicer.
-Aww, they took out the pickpocket on the train during the ID scan. That would have been a lot harder to deal with, but yeah.
-Good lord they stretched out these areas.
-Completely lost in this lamp and platform maze, but after a long time I finally figure out how to get out even with the items.
-Another maze and more reactor context change.
-Robot change where you can screw it over. That’s interesting.
-Yay Aerith!
-Dang Reno. You hard.
-OMG stupid ghosts get out of the way. I bet I have to trek all this way back to get this materia.
-This church is now also a crazy rat maze.
-Now onto roof rat maze.
-Ugh, why do I have to take the long way just to avoid Rude?
-Let me explore the town!
-Cloud and Aerith are way more helpful in this game. The kids have a secret hide out. Cool, I guess.
-Chadley is seriously simultaneously frustrating and useful.
-Yay I can go back and get crap from the church.
-Okay, so sneak out. Why tf is there a pot right outside my room that I can’t see?
-Okay, so there’s Aerith. We have a secret tunnel-ish. So many ladders. So much up and down.
-Out of that maze and yay they kept that scene where Aerith brings up Zack. Still not sure I’m liking all the foreshadowing cuz this was a spoiler in the original game.
-Tifa looks nice in that outfit. Like in general in this game though. They gave her a pretty thoughtful makeover that like captures the essence of her original profile, but also with some added tweaks in style that I actually like better. Like she didn’t have those thigh highs before, but those are a nice touch. And instead of her mini skirt her skirt is actually a skort and is pleated. Plus like the better boob support.
-Good lord Wall Mart is so involved now. So many alleys. Get out of the way yo!
-Leslie seems kind of cool, but I’m not sure cuz he works for a creep.
-Ugh hussle of trying to figure out how to get in. This sponsorship thing is new. I guess Corneo got more exclusive in this game.
-I have to go to the coloseum? Ugh, why?
-This crowd is full of haters.
-Okay winning over the crowd....
-I have an extra battle? WTF is this BS. I almost wish it was the Turks making a surprise appearance. That seems like a silly stupid thing the original would have done.
-Obviously Cloud caught someone else’s attention.
-Yay! Finally dress up time.
-Awesome. I’m doing a bunch of quests now.
-Whoops I didn’t level up my materia all the way. I got most of them so it’s doing fine but just the medicine thing.
-I saw a lot of people complaining about Jules, but he wasn’t so bad? I just needed to remember the rhythm and what I was doing by saying it so I could keep track of the pattern.
-Ugh, Johnny where you taking me? I have to wait for someone not yet.
-Oh Aerith looks nice. I like her outfit.
-Okay time to dress up Cloud.
-Whoa, Folia is a honeybee? Teh shock.
-What is this mini-game? It’s hard to keep rhythm and sometimes I actually can’t see the queue. Why do you design a mini-game where you can’t see the thing clearly?
-Oh shit I missed a track because I didn’t want to sit there and keep playing a frustrating mini-game. D:
-Yay! At least I got the cute dress. But real talk I kind of miss the old way to dress up Cloud only cuz I would want to see what the different colored wigs look like, but that whole storyline is very trans insensitive. Or even drag insensitive, so I understand why they changed it.
-Andrea is kind of cool. I was worried they were going to make him into some kind of flaming stereotype, but actually although he definitely has some flare, he’s a pretty well balanced character and none of the characters really judge him for his personal choices. Although definitely some judgement for the stuff they make them do, but that’s fair because you’re being subjected to it. Good on Cloud for following along.
-Okay time to take down this fat loser. So how does this work? How do you know who he’ll choose?
-Wait does he just choose Cloud every time? That’s a little less fun. I liked dressing Cloud up as the prettiest princess so that you could get him picked.
-This bit of them threatening Corneo’s private parts is still one of my favorite things. It was teh shock when I saw it the first time back in the day and I still enjoy it now.
-Ugh, the sewer. Also a lot of denial. But ugh the sewer.
-My sister was right. The train graveyard is creepier.
-Oh crap I forgot to steal from Eligor. !@#$@#%
-Alright climb the pillar. This is kind of slightly more fun with the extra scenes from Reno and Rude.
-Whoa, they saved Wedge. Cuz he originally totally ate it. Like straight fell off the pillar several stories and was unresponsive.
-Biggs and Jessie still die. That’s fine. I actually feel less sorry for Jessie dying than I did with the original. :/ I think because they managed to actually make her irritating with how over the top they made her.
-Aerith and Marlene is so cute!
-Helicopter shots are annoying, but I like hearing Reno. It’s sad that Fujiwara Keiji died two days after this came out. This is like the last thing he did probably. But his voice fit Reno really well. I don’t think it fit Ardyn well. Ardyn I think deserved a lower register, but I think Square gave him the part probably because of his diagnosis cuz I think Ardyn’s in-game struggle in a sense reflected his real life trials in some way only in the game he became immortal. Real life not so much, but immortalized in a sense through these works. I wonder if Square would have wanted it to come out sooner so that maybe he could have played it himself a little bit before passing, but they had to push the date for quality and stuff.
-I don’t know why, but I really like looking at Reno’s open shirt. Like I think the way they did his abs are a bit different from Advent Children. I think his shirt is even open wider than in AC. *checks* Yeah, it is. AC it’s buttoned up toward the top and just the top one or two are left open. And okay for real Remake has his shirt open even more than even in the original. Nevermind him buttoning up more for AC, but like in original FF7 polygon Reno and original Nomura art Reno looks like it’s only unbuttoned to about mid-pecs. Remake Reno is like down to like the top of his stomach. I guess I can’t complain about the equal opportunity fan service.
-Tseng is actually done pretty well, but I keep looking at him cuz he just strikes me as odd.... Oh wait is it his hair? Is that a hair tie? I don’t think he had a hair tie before. I think we were just supposed to assume he had his hair slicked back and kept in place by gel or hair spray. Also his face is interesting cuz I think they tried to make him actually look Chinese, but I think he just turned out looking kind of like Tamaki Hiroshi. Oh and Suwabe-san!
-LOL Rude carrying Reno like a rag doll.
-And there goes the plate. Oh, no, Wedge. I guess he did die. But the kitties. ;o;
-Let me explore Wall Market! Ugh, fine.
-That Kyrie chick seems kind of a little annoying. I kind of want to let Barret hit her. But I’m probably biased because I had a hot mess of a flatmate with that name and she like didn’t clean up after herself and left dirty dishes in her room and like pushed it up against her roommate’s bed. >.> Like passing responsibility over them to someone else. And I think she maybe broke one of my cups? And like tried to use my stuff without asking? Maybe stole some stuff too but idk. And like worst of all was like she sold her car so she could get money because she couldn’t hold down a job and like needed money and instead of like you know paying rent and bills, she spent it on shoes and make up and left the receipt out for us to find.
-Wall Market is...different in the day time.
-All teh quests.
-Okay Kyrie is still kind of annoying and stupid when you talk with her one on one, but she at least seems better than my flatmate.
-Oh old lady is the Angel.
-Findin’ all the birds. It kind of strikes me that they added this in cuz of how much time it takes to get places and it’s kind of like XV and even the XIV MMO, but not. I guess it’s a staple now with their newer titles because of how grand they make the scenery.
-Down in the sewer again....
-I just really wanna find Corneo’s stash.
-OMG I got a chase this little asshole now.
-Okay so now Leslie. Leslie is a good guy after all. Not a bad new character too. Nice decent development and stuff.
-But gdi Corneo’s still alive. I mean, I knew that cuz Wutai, but ugh.... I think he deserved at least a punch in the face.
-Okay so anyway I guess I’m going up now. Just going to finish up stuff before I go past the point of no return. Get all teh things I can from the coliseum and all that.
-Climbing, climbing. Oops I missed a thing. Was I supposed to?
-Gdi this helicopter thinger is annoying. I can’t slash any boxes. Just kick them around.
-Okay done so I guess I’m going in.
-...Is this a parking lot?
-Oh okay so here’s the entrance.
-Shinra headquarters actually looks like a bigger version of Square Enix’s headquarters in Higashi Shinjuku. I’ve been there pretty recently and also like to cut through the office building to get to Artnia cuz I don’t want to walk all the way around. Decor and stuff and specifics are definitely different, but like the double tower U-shaped look with the walkway in the middle thing is very much how the building is in Shinjuku. Specifics with the stairs and escalators are also different, but kind of the same deal with some amount of ambient lighting at night time and the lobby and such is still mostly open in the evening for people who work late or want to pass through. Some of the doors being locked or like certain staircases and such being roped off are a thing as well. I just know this cuz I often go to Artnia around dinner time when I’m there, so it’s generally after hours already.
-I think even the parking lot situation might even be the same? I’m not sure because I usually take the subway and that let’s out into the mini mall downstairs, but parking if you go there and do that is like subterranean for sure and would be the first layer if it was on a plate.
-I mean, the HQ is also technically kind of on a plate also. Cuz the mini-mall is like below normal street level, but it’s like more cool with like a Lawson’s and restaurants. Coming up from the subway is also a lot similar POV-wise to coming up through grappling hook too in terms of perspective.
-Getting the key. Getting a glove on the way. This part is kind of cool. I always liked this part of the game in the original too and exploring an empty office.
-This is suspicious. I have to take a tour...?
-I guess this is interesting to learn about the company and stuff.
-Weird movie theater. Oh look a spoiler hallucination in the theater. It’s nice to see more of Sephiroth.
-Oh yeah the mayor. That’s a bit of a change that he’s secretly Avalanche. Whatever cool. Yay I got a weapon.
-I gotta do a battle simulator. Oh great I guess if I want items I have to sit here and do all the simulators.
-Oh look it’s Chadley. I have turn ins. Take my stuff.
-Okay so hike upstairs....oh shit they’re going in. Sneak slowly behind and like go around and explore stuff.
-Found the toilet. Haha. Tifa yells at Cloud if he goes in the wrong one. Good.
-This is a nice bathroom.
-Okay up in the vent.
-Interesting extra context and oh yeah Palmer saw Sephiroth.
-Hojo is more gross looking than I remember. Like piled on extra creep factor for him.
-Following into the lab. I guess I should be glad he wasn’t a dumbass and trying to mate Aerith with Red XIII.
-Interesting that it’s only now that they’re really making good use of Those Who Fight Further. I don’t think I’ve really heard it all that often before.
-Yay! Yamaguchi Kappei!
-This part getting serious with Sephiroth is appropriate, but kind of different with him starting to freak out.
-Oooh, Turks scene! It’s nice that they know they are fan favorites now and they put them in more scenes. I wish it would actually play their theme every time they show up like it used to. That’s what made them badass too.
-Aww, Aerith’s room.
-Interesting they are talking in Aerith’s room instead of getting captured and Aerith talking through the wall.
-Shinra science experiment...You’re probably not entirely wrong.
-Huh, wisdom from Red XIII. That’s different context.
-Wow, that’s different. Pointing out a different greater enemy so early. I guess it makes sense Aerith would know because of the whispers she hears, but also it kind of sucks the mystery of the progression of the original story.
-Dang, Sephiroth and Cloud confrontation-ish now? Not going to mysteriously take a body and stab the President?
-Oh joy another crazy rat maze.
-Hojo is definitely more gross than he used to be.
-Oh, nope. Just different order. There’s the trail of blood.
-Well, “blood”. Jenova blood is now apparently purple bubbling ooze.
-President Shinra is just hanging?! DISAPPOINTED. I liked it better when you just showed up and he had a giant sword in his back. Also wondering if you’d be blamed for it, but yeah, sword in the back!
-This is what you get for showing mercy. :/ Sword in back was better.
-Oh shut up already so Rufus can take over.
-Oh you get to watch the sword in the back.
-WTF. He’s not supposed to stab your party.
-Ghost things protecting fate is weird. But also I have some theories like the game is conscious that it’s a remake or something and for some reason they’re repeating history, but some things are different because people don’t do things in exactly the same way but certain things are fated to happen so they have to be preserved.
-Interesting that this game shows the cloaked figures going back and forth between Sephy. Kind of takes away the fun from years of debate on the subject about wtf is happening.
-And here’s Rufus. Still better than his Dad.
-I like that there’s more Turks footage than the original.
-Kind of nice that there’s more tender moments between Tifa and Cloud or rather we can experience them bonding more first hand.
-Did they make Wedge die in a different spot?
-Motorcycle bit is a bit different. Boss on motorcycle is kind of hard. Died once.
-I think it’s just cuz it’s a Remake that they added him here, but Sephiroth is at the end of the highway and I kind of think it sucks. :/ Cuz like it shouldn’t be like this.
-Why is Zack alive? Oh I think this is a flashback. Aww, this is supposed to be a hidden thing. ;o; Stop feeding them all the stuff. Let them find it.
-Whisper monsters...Okay this is just some kind of an AU. Like not really entirely a remake, but a different game in the same timeline cuz Sephy figured out somehow how to alter time and space. Aerith knows kind of what’s up because she became god essentially during AC. Would also explain why the game itself is giving away so many damn spoilers too.
-Holy shit, is Zack dead or not? D:
-Okay I looked up a thing and it said his death is ambiguous, but he’s never seen. Zack was an actual SOLDIER too so he could be a cloaked guy for all we know. But also at the end of AC it was both him and Aerith chilling together welcoming people to the lifestream so who the hell knows what she did.
-Biggs is alive?!
-So okay, if this is an AU things can change and I’m less gripey about the weird things that happened. Cuz it’s like just another pinpoint on the timeline that kind of has pseudo time travel and when you repeat things over again they’re not always exactly the same. I suppose for Square itself it’d be kind of boring to make an actual Remake because they don’t want to take away from the original and they want people to still buy that too cuz it was so good even though the graphics didn’t age so well. Instead they slapped Remake on a new title and trolled us all into thinking they actually did it when actually it’s like a timey wimey thing.

Rewatching RWBY: Volume 1, Episodes 1-5 [Live Blog]
Let’s get started.
[Episode 1]
Hello Salem. I wonder who is she explaining all of this to before Ozpin interrupted her?
ROMAN. MY BOI. ;__;
The return of the shadow people!
By the way, has it ever been explained why Roman was collecting all of this Dust for Cinder?
RUBYYYY Omg, I am so used to her Maya model and her V4-V6 clothes. The outfit is iconic though!
Asdfjgk MONTYYYY ;___; I miss your fighting style!
Ruby’s voice is considerably deeper in the beginning….
GYLNDAAAAAA
Oh hi Cinder.
So I’m gonna go with a gambit and say that first shot Cinder went for and used was her Semblance….
Okay so I know Maidens weren’t even a thing until like between Volume 2 and Volume 3 but, does that mean what we’ve seen with Cinder was actually her semblance??
“Can I have your autograph” Omg Rubes
I didn’t notice until now, but are they at an interrogation room?
OZPIN. OZ. I LOVE YOU. ;w;
“You have… Silver eyes,” anyone want to bet Oz said the same thing to Summer at some point?
I love how Ozpin baked cookies for Ruby while she was getting scolded by Glynda it really shows how total opposite Oz and Glyn can be towards each other.
Omg Oz’s eyebrow raise when Ruby was talking with food in her mouth.
If you haven’t met me yet, I’ll say this now… I am a Ozpin stan so uh, you’ll be seeing me freak out over Oz a lot here lmao.
I’m thinking we’re seeing Ozma in control here, not Ozpin.
Ruby you’re so pure and innocent and I’m not looking forward to seeing you get traumatized.
Ozpin’s smile after she’s done talking is just aaa.
Glynda’s judgement look at Ozpin when he was considering enrolling her early. “Ozpin no.” “Ozpin yes”
Y A N G
“I just want to be a normal girl,” *laughs in silver eyes*
Adam you prick, that was a peaceful protest c’mon.
“Incredible time of peace” *cries in post Volume 3*
JAUNE BOY
Lmao that ending tho
THIS WILL BE THE DAY WE WAITED FOR. GOD I HAVEN’T HEARD THAT SONG IN AWHILE.
I just noticed after S I X years that Adam pops in this opening lmfao. It’s kinda creepy he’s still there even after Blake vanishes.
Those silhouettes do not look like Mercury or Emerald lmao. Okay, kinda, but not much.
PYRRHA. MY EYES ARE ALREADY WATERING. AAAAHHHA
The Nostalgia… Onto Episode 2.
[Episode 2]
Beacon Academy is fucking huge, and I do feel Ozpin based it’s design off of the castle he went in to free Salem. I can’t wait to see Beacon in Maya.
Ruby is weaponsexual, fight me.
The return of the shadow people lmao.
W E I S S
I forgot she's a bit of a bitch in Volume 1 omg. That just goes to show how much she’s grown since then.
B L A K E
TEAR THAT PIECE OF SHIT COMPANY APART BLAKE.
“Controversial Labor Forces” Yeah Adam would know….
“I’m Jaune” “Ruby” Ah yes, the moment I started shipping Lancaster was that very moment lmao.
I love them so much ;-;
I wonder if King of Vale (Oz) and Jaune’s Grandfather interacted…
Let’s play I spy a main character in this crowd.
“Where am I supposed to find a nice quirky girl to talk to?!” Pyrrha is RIGHT THERE JAUNE.
Yang’s expression when she realizes Ruby was being honest lmao
And so it begins with Jaune and Weiss.
That was so Ozma talking, and that foreshadowing for that moment in Volume 6 oof.  
Oh right the moment where I see people and homophobes argue that Yang isn’t into girls. Yeah, no I call BS because as we see later, Yang is into girls too.
“You’ve got friends all around you, you just haven’t met them yet,” FORESHADOWING.
I love Blake’s pajamas out of the RWBY girls. It seems very… Mistral like.
“It’s about a man with two souls” There is so much foreshadowing in this episode it’s not even funny… okay it is lol.
I love this moment between Ruby and Blake, and I think Blake sees a bit of what she used to be in Ruby and perhaps what Adam originally was to her. :c I made myself sad again gdi…
Those girls are going to love each other and treat each other like family…  
[Episode 3]
And here’s Ren and Nora!
I’m so used to hearing Neath voice Ren, but hearing Monty voice Ren and just overall hearing Monty… I love that man…
Ruby x Crescent Rose is the real endgame pairing.
PYRRHA I LOVE YOU ;A;
Omg Weiss and the return of her derp face.
I can see how Volume 1 Jaune is insufferable.
LET’S SAIL ARKOS. LET’S SAIL!
And Lancaster too!
That’s probably Ozpin talking, not Ozma.
Poor Ruby lol
Poor Jaune lmao
I think Ozpin might be enjoying this.
I remember reading a comic where that bird was actually Qrow that Ruby flew into lmao.
Man… it’s weird seeing Yang without a prosthetic for her arm…
I missed Pyrrha have I mention that before?
I remember that art style, it’s used in those RT animation skits.
That music that plays as they made eye contact gives me chills and I hear Mirror Mirror in it too.
IS THAT FOREVER FALL I’M HEARING IN THE BACKGROUND DURING PYRRHA’S AND JAUNE’S CONVERSATION. RT STOP YOU’RE GONNA MAKE ME CRY. I’m probably going to bawl my eyes one when the full version comes out.
I can see why people ship White Rose, and I do too. It’s cute.
[Episode 4]
Alright Goldilocks and the… Two Bears?
Oh right Yang values her hair a lot back during the early volumes.
That smirk from Blake. Also I’m going to be paying more close attention to Yang’s and Blake’s bond and also Sun’s and Blake’s bond here.
Ah, setting something on fire. Now that’s the RWBY I know.
Oof… yeah it was rough for Weiss and Ruby early…
Oh… I didn’t get that foreshadowing with the Nevermore fight until now!
Vol 1 RWBY has a lot of derp faces.
You know it’s been awhile since seeing someone use aura defensively like Ren does here.
Unlocking someone’s Aura seems very intimate at times.
Boop.
Oz keeping an eye out for Ruby, it is interesting because I made post where Summer’s death is what led to Ozpin being protective of Ruby during Volumes 1 and 2.
Omg Ruby is letting it all out on Weiss.
“Not yet” that was a dark mutter… referencing how her father is with her perhaps?
I feel like those chess pieces they pick are of importance in later volumes
“Some girl is in trouble” LMAO
And Ruby is falling.
Alright I know what happens next episode, and I can’t wait if I remember correctly.
[Episode 5]
Lol I love their banter
Blake’s ears twitched, that’s how early the speculation of Blake having cat ears have started… actually it might when the Black Trailer was released.
Blake is just... experiencing so much wacky shit that she would never experience seeing in the White Fang
There’s so many anime tropes in this episode lmao.
Lmao, it was heroic for a brief moment Jaune.
#EveryoneIsHere
Ruby was so reckless early volumes damn.
Omg that must have been terrifying for Yang especially.
Weiss to the rescue!
With that character development too!
Ah yes, that small Lancaster moment.
Something tells me in the Final Battle against Salem we’re going to see a more older, wiser, and harden Ruby perched on that rock and turning to her friends and allies as a callback to this.
Alright time for RWBY & JNPR VS Death Stalker & Nevermore.
I miss Monty’s fight choreography. ;v;
The start of JNPR. And Jaune being a strategist.  
The start of RWBY, and Ruby being a leader.
That’s probably one of the most iconic moments in RWBY.
Omg Pyrrha and Nora are so happy.
This is definitely going to be an interesting year Oz…
“We’re going to need more men…” Here comes the White Fang..
All in all I miss seeing Pyrrha and Ozpin in the flesh especially, and I feel like I’m 16-17 again. This is great!
