"Please, just... Let me. Let me love you?"
Ft: Suguru Geto.
incl: Smut, best friends, lesbian/Aromantic f!reader, public sex, plane sex, virgin!reader, a bit of blood, cherry popping, but most of it is really soft and light. ^^
wc: 4-5k? A lot I guess.
pairing: virgin!female!reader x In love!Suguru Geto.
Note from the author: Hey!! I got like a thousand votes for Geto Smut, so I hope ya'll like this. I got the idea based on myself (a narcissist, yes), but I'm a lesbian, I hate rl guys, but... Anime Boys. Enjoy!!
Tumblr media
Geto likes you. Romantically, sexually...
And he's not afraid to admit it. He tells you it all the damn time. You're his best friend, you think he loves you as that, and he just jokes about the romantic and sexual love, but he wants to be more. You definitely don't. You don't like him or men in general.
But he just can't see why you don't want him. You told him you don't like anyone, and he believes you, but he doesn't wanna. Nevertheless, you both are still friends. Best friends.
Having a mental breakdown? Call Suguru.
Need to open a jar? Suguru gotchu.
Need advice on an outfit? - call Shoko, but, you get it.
Today, you are going to fly to America to visit your family. And you're bringing him, of course, because you absolutely need him on this 12-hour flight. And he's happy to go, why would he say no? You're his best friend.
So, that's where you both are. On the plane. You got the window seat, Suguru sitting next to you, and an older, pretty girl on the outside of the row, next to you both. Suguru is slightly happy you two got to sit by a pretty girl, but you? You couldn't care less about that. There are no babies, children, or old people, just people, you're age and adults, so about 18-30.
Suguru is pleased. He's happy as hell. He gets to be with you for 12 hours and only sees good-looking people so far. You, again, couldn't care less. You just stare out the window of the plane, quietly admiring the clouds that float around.
After a few hours, everyone settled in, no noise or talking, it's pretty calm. Suguru is pretending to read a book, just wanting to look at you without your knowledge. You are on your phone, have been for a while- when the plane starts to hit turbulence. You already have your seat belt on, so dose Suguru, so that's not what you're worried about. It's the feeling of your seat rubbing and grinding against your clit as you unwilling bounce in your seat. The feeling is pleasant, but damn, of all the times? On a plane? Next to a stranger? Oh, even worse, next to your best friend.
You try to hide your little moans and whines, but Suguru hears them when the turbulence starts to pick up. The pilot speaks on the speakers, a calm and reassuring voice that does NOTHING to help with your situation.
"Hello, passengers, it appears we've hit a bit of turbulence. Not to worry, it'll just be a moment. We would recommend you put on your seatbelt incase you fall off your seat."
The pilot then turns off the speaker as you continue to quietly moan from the sensation in your shorts. Suguru hears every single one. He's getting aroused, never before hearing those noises out of you. He's fantasized about it countless times in the past, but hearing it right now, it can't be real.
You look over to him and see his slightly widened eyes, along with his mouth being partly agape and his hand pressed against his crotch underneath his blanket.
You take biology. You're also not an idiot. You know what a boner is. And the tell-tale signs that a man has one, and the reasons they would have one. You are kicking yourself in the inside for letting this happen, but also getting slightly aroused by the few people looking at you two.
The turbulence doesn't stop. it's been going on for a minute or so, isn't slowing down, and is still making you bounce in your seat. Your panties are getting a bit more moisture in them, along with your clit being rubbed against the seat. You cover your mouth, but right as you do, Suguru takes your hand off your mouth and leans in a bit closer, which shocks you.
"Ohhh, no, no, pretty girl. I can't let you hide those... Those wonderis sounds from me. Not now."
He says with a seductive look in his eyes, whispering so nobody else can hear. He's practically violating you from how close he is, inches away, pressing himself against your side.
Nobody even looks at you both, not hearing anything, except the select few who can faintly hear your moans and whimpers. Suguru doesn't care at all, and a few seconds later, you're both in the airplane bathroom.
You don't like him. You don't like men. You don't like dick, you don't like how men smell, you don't like how they treat women, you don't like imagining sucking a man off, you don't like imagining a dick inside of you, or swallowing cum, it makes you grossed out.
Yet here you are, in a moment of weakness and arousal, with Suguru's lengthy cock inside of your virgin cunt, softly pushing in and out, making sure to hit your g-spot, hitting it in an angle to feel just how deep he is.
He always imagined this would happen. Him fucking you. Him being your first. He shaves every day, makes sure not a single hair is anywhere except his head, because he knew that would gross you out. How sweet.
You are covering your mouth as some of your blood and his pre-cum drips from your cunt, the feeling painful yet pleasurable, one that's hard to describe to a virgin. That's why you've never had sex. You don't like men, and nobody ever told you just how euphoric and perfect it feels.
He's slow and sensual, feeling every one of your muscles rub against him, feeling every squeeze, every breath, every heartbeat, every sound you make that ripples inside of him. He's thought about this. He's thought about it so many times. Fucking you from the front, you pressed against the sink inside the cramped bathroom. He looks down at you, your eyes crossing, your body moving in what feels like 80 steps for one motion, rigid and slow, back arching and head facing the other way.
"I don't like men.. I don't like men... I don't like men... I don't like men..." You repeat in your head again and again. And it's true, you don't. You like the feeling of this man inside of you. You like the feeling of his dick, not his dick. You like the feeling it gives you. You love that feeling.
He loves you. Your body. Your perky titties. Your voice. Your hair. Your eyes. Your smile. Your moans. The subtle shake of your legs. Your fucked-out face. Your personality. Your nose. Your lips. Your eyelashes. Every single thing, he adores it. And you're letting him adore even more of you.
He doesn't pick up the pace, going at a nice and slow pace, fast enough to cum, but smooth and caring, holding your waist as he tenderly slides in and out of you. It's your first time. He knows it hurts. He knows. That's why he's treating you so softly, right? Not because he actually loves you that much... Right?
That's what you think, trying to believe it. He kisses you softly, and you kiss back, enjoying the moment. You don't like him, he knows it, you know it, right? This is a one-time thing to help you, right? Just because you were struggling, right? Just because it'll feel better when you fuck yourself in the future, right?
You think again after he breaks the kiss. But this time, you don't believe it. The way he looks at you with love and affection in his half lidded eyes, so gently caressing your waist with his thumb, his flowing deep breaths. He kisses you again, so smoothly and tenderly that you forget completely about the pain of his dick inside you.
There are very few moments when his lips are fully connected to yours, lapping from one to another, licking your bottom lip to rub his against it slowly, kissing to the rhythm of his breathing, slowed and sensual. You can feel every little movement, the small smile on his lips, just enjoying everything about this. He thinks it's a dream, and prays he never wakes up.
He slows down his hips almost completely when you both cum at the same time. It's not a super big moment, as the fluids slowly drip from his cock and out of your cunt, onto the floor. It's enjoyable. It hits you both with a rush of pleasure and dopamine, but he doesn't break the kiss. He's breathing slightly heavier from the orgasm, as are you, but just in heaven at this.
It's so incredibly soft. Gentle. Sweet. Loving. Genuine. Caring. Tender. He actually loves you, as you've come to realize after this experiment.
*ahem*
Even after he finally broke the kiss, he sat you on the sink and cleaned you off. He never once broke eye contact with you when he was wiping you off, just staring at you with a small smile and loving eyes. He occasionally locks and kisses random spots of your body, admiring it.
This all still shoked you, even after everything. Once you got back to your seats, he held your hand the rest of the trip, not once letting go. He kept saying "I love you" almost every five minutes. It wasn't normal, but it wasn't that much of a weird thing for him.
He kept expecting you to say it back.
... Do you love him?
(Lemme know what to write next if you liked this. ^^)

Alright, I'mma give my opinion again. This time with Hazbin Hotel..
Tumblr media
So I saw the trailer for Hazbin Hotel a few days ago and honestly, I am so disappointed. Like, you're telling me I waited years for them to release a trailer for the series, and this is all we get??
I'm not saying it wasn't enough, no, on the contrary, I think they revealed way too much. But what I mean is, I was expecting something else, because this ain't it, chief.
***
Alright so first off, we have the voices. I'mma be hella honest with y'all, this shit sounds unfinished, as in, it sounds like Viv got confused and published the behind the scenes instead of the finished product because omfg, the voices sound bad.
I genuinely don't understand the weird obsession Viv has with hiring celebrities or broadway actors into her shitty shows, it's not like she's rich enough to afford that- plus she does this often, doesn't that mean it affects the budget of the show? (I don't know much about that stuff so bear with me).
It's funny cuz, she hires these super famous celebrities to voice characters in her shows, but she doesn't need to, like, you can be a professional, but that doesn't necessarily mean you're a great VA. It almost feels like she does that because she wants to feel important, she wants to show off like "Oh look at me, I have celebrities voicing my characters! Aren't I cool?"
But anyway, going back to the voices, I have to say this, my least favorite are Alastor and Angel Dust. I just think it's absolutely ridiculous that Viv got rid of the pilot VAs just to replace them with broadway actors, only for them to make the characters sound flat and emotionless.
Like, it's funny because she makes these broadway actors imitate the voices from the pilot, however it doesn't come naturally for these actors and it shows. It almost feels like they have no idea what they're doing. It legit sounds like they're reading the script but not putting any effort into it. (Y'know how people shit on anime dubs because they don't sound good or whatever? That's exactly how I feel about this-).
The next thing I wanna talk about is the animation. Don't get me wrong from what I've seen, in some moments the animation looks alright, but other times it looks choppy as hell. I thought this show was supposed to be more 'professional' since they literally got A24 and Bento Box ent. for this. But yeah, all I can say is, the animation hasn't changed at all, the only thing that is slightly different is the art style but aside from that, the animation still sucks.
And finally, the last thing I wanted to discuss is the plot of the series. So as we all know, in the Pilot, it was established that Charlie (along with Vaggie) opened the Happy Hotel in hopes of redeeming sinners so that they can go to heaven because Hell was too overpopulated (plus the whole extermination thing). But the whole point of the plot was that she wasn't entirely sure she could actually do it or if it was even possible, and that's what made the plot more interesting back then. But here? It's absolute garbage. Not only did the trailer basically reveal way too much information already (before the series could even come out yet), but the plot was changed entirely!
Like I mentioned, Charlie's motives were to redeem sinners, but here she's more focused on having some kind of war with heaven/the angels. And that's the thing, now that we know that heaven is a thing in this series, plus the inclusion of Adam, it just makes the series feel so predictable, because now we know that the sinners can be redeemed, which beats the entire purpose of the show. It's like, "Hell bad, but heaven is worse" and "Good VS. Bad!!", cliche type of thing. You think a series 'made for adults' would have a more interesting plot than a kids show, but nah, we get these basic ass levels of writing. I swear a fucking five year old could come up with something better and far more creative than this nonsense-
***
So yeah, I'm honestly hella disappointed that this is what the series has turned into. I had high hopes for Hazbin Hotel (since Helluva ain't shit-), but nope, it turns out, Viv is capable of making herself look even more stupid by completely butchering her own series. Hell, I actually have Amazon Prime, but I am probably not even gonna watch this shit, I'll just wait till some dumbass on YouTube uploads the first episode or something stupid like that (so that I can watch it and critique it later). Because I know that someone definitely will.
Anyway, that's all for today, thank you for reading my dumb post- alright bye!

A bit of a personal commentary of the recent stuff involving a dude that payed about $50,000 for what appears to be a Self shipping video
I've heard many things of this whole stuff, but I'm gonna add i don't know all of the sides on here but I just really wanna say something about the whole situation, even if I'm just someone who is barely known on the internet and world...
Why all the criticism and hate?
Yeah, I know the dude is known from the animated rap battles, and it may be a bit "bizzare" to now know he likes a fictional character so much he paid almost (exactly or even more, not 100% sure about this info) for a music video with him and this character, And....
I say good for him honestly
I just, I don't understand all the criticism and hate he's been getting?
Yeah sure, he was someone that maybe we wouldn't think he would like this character on specific, or anyone to pay "so much money" for a vid, but at the end of the day he's still a human
And the most important thing here, he's not harming no one
which I want to clarify I'm only "defending" him because I have not heard any information of any harm towards anyone being done in this situation so far, and I'm pretty sure he hasn't
He just likes a character, AND it's his money at the end of the day
He didn't do it because he wanted to cause cringe or attack the creator of the character
He did it because, he simply likes a lot the character, probably liked the song to, and wanted to see these two thing together, which is good! The song ain't attacking anyone, the animation ain't hurting no one, not even him is like "HEY LOOOK, I PAYED FOR THIS!1!1!!1!"
It's a personal thing, that was filtered accidentally, and I think y'all should leave him alone
I too have my own stuff that is personal, and sure that if it got public I would get my good amount of mocking and hate comments, BUT IT'S A PERSONAL THING!
It's not meant to satisfy anyone or anything, other than make me happy
I feel he's the same
And I have seen the memes of
"OHhhHhh wHaT wOulD YouU WANntTt iF you Had 50K!??!?
A video of your character and you or (any other stuff than that)"
I'm gonna say it
Yeah, if I had 50k I would definitely want my own video with my fav character
You want a plane? Or any other thing? Well Kay!! You like that, but I don't, and that's fine
You don't have to rub it on my face that you like it, I myself ain't doing that
Maybe to me the fact that YOU want a plane is silly
But it's your thing, and I'm not gonna judge you for that yk? So don't do that either to me
Now, with the the animation on itself, I heard it has various traced frames from the Hazbin hotel pilot, well, I'm not gonna defend that, but you keep the dude away from that
I don't think he knew or was like "ah yesss, trace the original animationnnn", so you keep him out of that
And tbh, if it was a personal animation, like, there's no profit taken from that, it may have been more helpful to trace that rather than have a Charlie that just looks wonky, plus, again, it wasn't meant to be something public
Second....
"OMGGGG!!?!? WHY 50,000KKKK?!!?!?!?? THAT'S LIKE SO EXPENSIVEEEEE"
Yeah, as a semi animator myself, Animation takes time, it's work
And seeing the whole animation, even just a few seconds, the animation does have his effort put into it, it has characters, colored, a background which also moves, and overall it's goodly cleaned!
The dude also said it! It was made by a whole team, not just one person
Look at it like this, you are part of the team, maybe there are like.... 8 on the team, you do the backgrounds, and all of that takes your time, maybe you even sleep late for it, and all you get payed after all that effort and nights of working is 20$ dollars
You barely can buy something with that, maybe a carton of milk, the prices and economy aren't really friendly these days
Yeah, that doesn't really sound fair does it?
If anything I would praise the guy for paying all the amount that was asked for what he wanted, because some people on comparison.... Oh boy
And third, many say that this is out of character for Charlie, that she has a girlfriend and stuff like that
Yeah, says the same person that sexualizes alastor even despite the fact that he's canonically aroace, and yeah, I'm personally a whole fanatic of Charlie and Vaggie, but if someone likes Charlie and wants to ship himself with it I'm okay with that, he ain't doing it because he wants to make me mad or harm me, he just liked the character a lot
Also, when you like someone, yeah, you may accidentally make them differently than what they are in your head, and that applies even on real life relationships
So yeah, that was my personal humble opinion on the situation
Just.... Leave the guy alone
Put it like an ice cream
He wanted and ice cream, maybe cheese ice cream (yeah, that exists and it's fucking delicious), but he did it on private exactly because he knew people don't exactly think and just start attacking and mocking anything that may be unusual, and he just didn't want to deal with all that
But then someone saw it, took a picture of him eating his ice cream happily, and showed it to everyone, and that's how all the fire started
I think all of this situation is silly really
It just reminds me that there are many people that just do that for laughs or because on their head it's a whole war if someone thinks different than them, and then they are all worried and confused why the person they bullied is now either mad, or became bad
Just let him be
I can't believe even today we are still dealing with shit like this

I love Sodikken and idc what anyone says if there's 1 Sodikken Dan on this earth ITS ME.
1. Sodikken made me start enjoying music
For a while I couldn't find any artist I liked that weren't Panic at the Disco, Twenty-One Pilots, Alec Benjamin and occasionally Fall Out Boy but when I started listening to Sodikken I finally found an underground, underrated artist that made lyrics special and meaningful to me. The way some people prefer 🍒or 🍑 is like music and lyrics people. I am 100% a lyrics person while some others are beat and music people. But I need lyrics that resonate with me or are important and Sodikken does that for me. They made lyrics like;
"Take it from me looks couldn't kill, no but they can get you disowned",(Gretel)
"How can anyone think I'm lovely, when they retch at the sight of me?", (Gretel)
"There goes my sister yeah you couldn't miss her...I think I hate her, those green alligators, I wish they had ate her..", (Hansel)
"Would you like to eat with me, eat dinner as a family, we take care of each other's needs- Yeah that's not happening". (People Eater)
And others that were really relatable and comforting for me. I know it sounds stupid but it's my favorite thing. In the song 'Gretel', it was about not being conventionally attractive and getting treated differently for it (pretty privilege). For 'Hansel' it was about feeling alone and isolated and that's why they did dangerous tricks to get attention and also explains why they were jealous of their sister. Lastly, 'People Eater' is about abusive/toxic relationships when someone just takes and takes and one is constantly stuck giving parts of themselves until there's nothing more to give.
2. Their voice (ft their creativity)
It takes pure artistry to do what Sodikken does to find the perfect voice, transitions in their animation and music videos, lyrics and rhythm for their songs. And also on a lighter note, I just really like their voice, especially in the last video they posted "An announcement"(?) I like how in a lot (I'm 90% sure all) of their songs they have vocal changes and they sound wildly and completely different keeping it interesting and creative. The song titles are unique and so is their style.
3. (Short) how relatable they are
Like I mentioned above, Sodikken has lyrics that stuck with me because of how much it reminded me of myself or other people I encountered. Overall making their music more memorable.
Lastly, about the hate they get
Sodikken ABSOLUTELY does not deserve the hate they get. Everyone always says that we need something "different" "more unique" and "creative" and complaining how "Everyone's the same (nowadays)" and when there's a actual artist who who fits all of those descriptions they chew them up...(their popular song on TikTok with the lyrics, "A whole garden of flowers and my name etched on a rock. All this could've been avoided all I wanted was to talk..."from the song Hansel And "You wanna taste of my brain? Okay. It's yours anyway. A bite of my eye? Alright. I won't put up a fight. How bout today, you try eating something else for a change? Because the way things are going I won't last another day." From People Eater) and spit them out. There's people saying it's "weird" and "cringey." Just because you don't like a song, doesn't mean someone out there doesn't think that song is amazing or helped them through hard times. (I also have another one of my favorite songs called a "bad song", The Beer by Kimya Dawson) these songs/ artist mean so much to me and your words affect others. If you don't like it scroll,not interested, or block but don't leave hate. I don't know if it because Sodikken seen the hate or maybe by coincidence but they deleted their song, People Eater of their original account but there can be many reason to why they did; Hate on the song , A found dislike for their song after putting it out, legal reasons ECT but if it was for the hate I really advice for Sodikken not to listen to it and pay more attention to their fans that love their content.
In Conclusion:
If you like mainstream artists, do you but don't criticize unique artists so much they stop creating their music. Because I'm even if it doesn't necessarily feel like it, people really do enjoy all types of songs.

Hello There!! :) Sorry to bother you but I just wanted to let you know that some leaks for future episodes of Helluva Boss, for EP 6 And 12 were just leaked on 4Chan and I wanted to know your thoughts if you saw them. I've seen them myself..and I've gotta say, this just made me more annoyed and made me just wanna avoid the show even more, it's so damn predictable and it's just more proof that the show refuses to put Stolas in the wrong and call him out on what he's done and make us feel bad for him, and he's just nothing but this "UWU baby. 😒🤦‍♀️ It's just so frustrating, I REALLY don't see this show getting any better and seeing these animatics for the future episodes of the season just proves my point.
Heck, sometimes I'm even wondering why HB needed to be made, yes it was obviously made to keep fans invested and entertained until Hazbin's arrival but this spinoff has just been a mess and all over the place, and relys on shipping to get the fans entertained + I feel like a spinoff should be able to stand on it's own without connecting to the show it's based on, ya know? It also just feels Viv isn't as passionate about HB as she is with HH, like HB the more I think about it, just feels like nothing but a cash grab and just there to keep fans invested, and it'd working since the fans will eat up anything from Viv. I'm not saying Viv and her team aren't passionate and hard work is shown with the Animation + Voice Acting, but everything else, especially the writing..isn't very good. Idk man, I just feel like HB is just a cash crab and such, at least with HH it has so much potential and something going for it and seems like a story Viv actually WANTS To tell and explore, which I hope it delivers. 🤞💙 But with HB, it's just all over the place and it went from a comedy show about assassin Imps to a romantic yaoi fanfic show, it's facts. I thought this show was called, "Helluva Boss" not "The Stolitz Show"/"The Stolas Show" This show just feels like a fanfiction and all it's emotional scenes feel emotionally manipulative too and just not earned, they're just there to make you feel for the characters. For example, remember how in EP 6 (Truth Seekers) It seems Blitz was gonna change for the better and try treating Moxxie better and stop being an asshole? Well, the next episode just completely throws Blitz "Depth" right out of the window and he goes back to his same ways and WE are apparently supposed to feel back for him, especially at the end of that episode..but I don't, because he did that to himself.
And while yes, it takes time for a character to grow and change, they still try putting effort in the process when it comes to redeeming and trying to better themselves and you slowly see them grow as time goes on, even if they slip up at times and it isn't easy. But with Blitz, it's like Viv and the writers completely forgot about the last episode, and his and Moxxie's so called "heart to heart" moment and just had him to continue being the same unlikeable, loud, annoying, creepy Boss that he's always been since the Pilot, and had him stalk his employees (ON THEIR ANNIVERSARY, BTW) just because it's funny.
(Let's not forget that HB pretty much spoiled HH and it's premise when it comes to Charlie's goal to redeem demons and help them get to Heaven. But it just seems pointless and just reckons HH, since Heaven is revealed to be just as bad Hell and it just makes Charlie's goal useless, tbh. Though, I like to pretend the C.H.E.R.B. EP doesn't exist, Lol.)
(I've mentioned beforehand that I really do use to enjoy and like the show a lot and was a fan, but things started to take a turn sometime after EP 3, where it went downhill for me and I saw a drop in quality. I rewatched the show and saw in-depth posts on here and just realized how bad some things are in the show and just how flawed it really was. I mean, when being a fan, I didn't really pay attention and just saw on flawed it was, plus I also stopped watching and left because of it's toxic and horrible fandom and how they attack and harass you if you say one negative thing on the show or their favorite ships, and say you're homophobic..which is ridiculous and just so sad, especially when some of these fans are adults, almost close to their 30's and yet act like children when not everyone blindly praises the show like they (and the majority of the fandom) do.)
Yes!! I have seen the leaks. Just now after you mentioned them. (I'm surprised it wasn't that hard to find them).
Honestly, Stolas existing as a character hardcore irks me at this point. Not gonna lie, lol! Just knowing this show is going to try its hardest to have us pity him or Blitzo, even when they don't even deserve it, frustrates me. For real!
I'm not gonna spill a drip of tea about the leaks, but from what I've seen so far (in some ways, in these specific scenes), let's just say it's similar to the last few episodes that were released. And if you read my rants, you'll know it'll be the same issues I've mentioned about this piece of crumbled mess we call a web show. At this point, I really am done with this show. Like, I'll still watch the show just to make fun of it, but my ratings for it will stay at an all-time LOW!
Yeah, I can pretty much tell from the first season that Viv's effort and determination for HB faltered completely and will probably never click again. It's no secret she's more invested in HH. I mean, it's fine if you wanna put more of your focus on the MAIN show you really wanted to release. It would actually make sense that her interest and effort for her spinoff fell drastically because she started paying more attention to HH (even if it is the main reason why it's terrible). I can tell at this point that she loves Hazbin Hotel a lot more than Helluva Boss (I mean, I do too. But that's not the point) However if you're going to make a spinoff just to keep your fans entertained enough to have patience for the big thing, at least put more effort in the plot and the potential the show could have. And I'm not just talking about the fans that will go ~~uwu gaga~~ or teary-eyed over everything that occurs in this mess as long as it keeps the ship going. I'm talking about the people that actually expect this show to make sense and have some good plot points!!
Pretty much all that you said is accurate! It can't be any more right than it already is.
For real, where the holy hell did the plot go!!?? What is the point of this show?? What lessons are being learned?? If there are any lessons learned, they should've been learned from the very beginning it became something serious instead of the characters going through the same repetitive sh*t only to not learn a damn thing. If I'm missing something, someone's gonna have to let me know! Cuz, my god! This show IS ALL OVER the place with its plot points! How are you gonna expect me to feel bad about any of these characters if they're never gonna learn their lesson? You can't just make a scene where they start to see the error of their ways and make it seem like they're going to try and change for the better only to completely forget about all that they learned (or are supposed to learn) just to act the same as they always been. Like, what was the point of that build-up? Where did all the potential go?? You mean to tell me all that was just some kind of filler episode that supposedly never happened???? NO! That's not how this works! You can't just do that??
It was supposed to be just a comedy. A sitcom about a bunch of assassins getting their job done. Fulfilling requests from every sinner to kill or get revenge on anybody in the living that did them wrong. We only had very few episodes containing that plot, only for it to turn into a drama and into a rom-com added with pointless drama so suddenly since episode 7.
And you raise a good point about the whole heaven thing. Charlie's goal just seems completely pointless since the cherub episode. In heaven, Angels are supposed to be seen as... well, the complete opposite of what the sinners and demons of hell are. We're supposed to see them as good people ( or angels?). The kind of people that do no wrong. Or probably have done some wrong but begged God for forgiveness so they earn their place in heaven (not really sure if it works like that. That's just based on my assumption and just seems to make sense). They could be considered really nice beings who hate committing felonies and only want to be good. But all we saw was a whole freakin' FACADE from the Cherubs!!! They just seemed sweet while only wanting to keep people alive. But later, they literally try to murder and fight these imps!! Cursing and even calling that old man sh*tty! Umm, WHAT?? Angels using bad words.... Is that even allowed?? Charlie wants to redeem every sinner... Okay, but what would be the point if they're just gonna act the same as they did in hell. They would just be keeping a whole facade to make themselves look good!
(What ever happened to those Cherubs after they got kicked out of heaven anyway?)
Yeah, Helluva Boss was enjoyable for a while. A short while actually. It wasn't perfect, but it was still enjoyable to watch. But unfortunately, it failed to be seen as one of the best shows I've seen. The plot is just not there anymore. The characters are terrible and fail at being characters. The jokes aren't even funny no more. They might as well be jokes for kids under 17 who just laugh at every single f bomb being dropped. The fans that do watch and enjoy this show might as well be a bunch of 12-year-olds if they don't even see one flaw it has. I'm sorry. But considering how toxic fans can get, I have every right to say this.

I did NOT know that they had that kind of person on team with the Poison episode 😬😬 yikes.
I feel like there are a LOT of things that I could go on about it over (ya know...about the blatant blasphemy everywhere in it). The sympathetic lucifer story, the twisted Eden backstory, the angel's being Like That (I mean I guess you can look at it like "Some Christians act this way towards people because they think being Christian makes them better than others" but there is a better way to address that than the way this show is)....I fear that the day will come that they use a God/Jesus character and paint Him in a poor light while uplifitng Lucifer. I'm not sure if I would be more angry about that or sad/worried on behalf of the creators of the show.
I can see what feels like wasted potential in the more original aspects of the show. I feel like it could have been so much better if she had taken the original ideas/characters and the idea of redemption/forgivness and then placed them all in a fictional separate world that didn't include, as you said, the obvious blasphemy. I enjoy the music, the animation/art style (granted the pilot's animation was preferable).
....I feel like they were just trying to make St. Peter look like a stereotypical youth pastor. And one of the songs says "It'll take time to cover my vast multitude of sins" and I can't help but be like "that isn't hOW thAt WORKs"
I appriciate your response. It's good to see a lot of my thoughts were shared. I have difficulties pulling myself out of things when I get pulled in, so I've had some time to really think about the things that COULD have been good and the things that take away from it as a whole, what I'd have done differently, etc.
I've just taken to praying for the people who have worked on it and hoping they have the decency to not put "God" or "Jesus" on screen in the next season and make them awful. (Though I guess I did KNOW that they couldn't proceed with the show without taking a lot of things out the the Bible and twisting it around).
(I won't bother ya anymore with it btw. Some of it did just genuinely baffle me & I appriciate you taking the time to respond too me <3)
I'm sooo getting tired of media making satan 'misunderstood' lol. it got old fast, and there are some people who actually try to say the show is accurate 😭 I saw someone claim that it's true that satan wanted best for humans and that was why he was kicked from heaven. they clearly never read the Bible seeing that satan wanted to dethrone God.
yeah I could see they're trying to criticize Christians who basically do whatever they want (being hateful and evil in a different way) but still think they're going to heaven. but like you said, it coulda been done better than the show did lol
ikr, it had so much potential. and I do admit a few of the songs get stuck in my head from time to time, especially when a clip of the show appears on my tiktok FYP lol.
they probably took some doctrines from catholicism for that line XD don't they believe people will still go through some trails to pay for their sins even if they're saved? uhhh purgatory? lol
no problem! and oh gosh, yeah same, I hope they never add God/Jesus in it 😬 thankfully from the intro, it made it look like multiple angelic beings were technically the 'gods' who created earth. I'm sure they'd get a 'helluva' lot of backlash if they actually put Jesus in it.
also I don't mind if you wanna share more thoughts on the show or anything else. even if I take a while to answer asks, my ask box is always open 😊👍

hc dump for könig and my oc kate
i cant fukin finish my chapter yet bc adult deadlines AAAAAA
Tumblr media
König
he got his callsign because ever since he was a cadet, everything from his uniforms to his bed had to be made king-sized to cater to him, which cost a little extra but what can u do? gotta keep your soldiers in proper condition
so he was jokingly called "king" because of that + the irony of his personality being uncharismatic and quite reclusive, in contrast to what you'd expect of a king
he stuck with it anw because it sounds like his irl nickname "Nik"
in his kortac stints, being called "könig" def strokes his ego a bit
having grown up in a farm, he is close to animals but his job is stopping him from keeping pets
for him, definitely countryside >>> city, but stays in frankfurt and not himberg for work reasons. it's nearer to kortac hq.
struggles with relationships with other people but has a strong sense of self
Tumblr media
Kate
(sry i don't have any pic for her so here's her plane HAHAHJSDGH)
to the filipinos: i'm sorry but with based on (not all but) many student pilots i've spoken to so far, imma have to make her a conyo girl HAHAH her family didn't start out well-off but got better over the years. so while she's not "make tusok the fishball" level, she has an accent on top of her taglish. (flight school so fkin pricey, so there's fr many of that demographic)
full-blown manila girl, but her parents are both cebuanos
for the avgeeks: she flies a gulfstream g550
before flying as a corporate pilot, her first job was as a flight instructor (which many do if they wanna earn flight hours asap)
workin with the charter company she's in for 5 years now and is a captain, hence the 4 bar epaulettes in the art
secretly dreams of bringing her future S/O for a plane ride just to show off some stall/spin recovery moves (if the date isn't a pilot too)
doesn't fkin know if she wants to apply at an airline (which is the end goal for most if not all filipino pilots)...or what to do with her life for the most part. she's just so good at looking put-together that nobody notices
opposite of könig, has good relations with other people but struggles with her sense of self
cant dump other hcs without spoiling so thatll do for now yay love u all <3

ZOIDS YOU SAY?
I don’t know what to ask, I just like hearing someone say zoids. XD; hmmm…
Here’s one: how are zoids (the pilot-able ones) made/born in your universe?
Do you know if there’s a cannon way they’re made beyond just “zoids Eve done it”?
When you get your lore, do you get it mostly from the show, battle story, manga, or somewhere else? What are your thoughts on how the anime/battle story/etc varies? (Like, do you get frustrated (I do… ;_; no matter what, I’m always wrong, it makes me sad) or do you consider them like … alternate universes from each other, or what?)
I might think of more later… I just wanna hear you talk about zoids. :3
:D I actually did a post about that first one already - this here! Canon - well, to mix in with your later question, canon varies. With the sole exception of CC/GF/NC0 all being part of the same canon, I think (and objective evidence points to) every other thing is its own, separate canon. Except maybe Wild Zero. As far as Zoid Eve goes I think Zoidians actually have a fundamental misunderstanding of it and that Fiona was wrong, but she so fervently believed what she believed, Van & co believed it. If that makes sense. The toy/Battle Story(?) background materials (many of which can be found on The Iron Bible) have small mentions of how wild Zoids reproduce, and how folks "tamed"/brought them into modern use. But those background materials don't mesh well/at all with the other canons. Unhelpfully, most other canons don't seem keen to explain these basics. Probably because it's supposed to be a kids' show/toyline and most explanations (especially ones that are logical outgrowths of what little canon does say) get dark FAST. CC/GF pretty clearly shares a lot of material with the Battle Story, so it's tempting to put them together. I think a lot of folks do? But BS has huge, fundamental swaths of incompatibility with the anime, so... I personally don't blend them (though I did consider adding Wolff into my canon for a while. But, no.) The manga is off in its own weird world. I love the art, but I do not vibe with its particular story and setting. I think it has an explanation about where Zoids come from but I honestly don't know it well enough to recite it because Zeke being a magic anime girl just doesn't work for me My hc lore is anime-centric, so I prioritize making the anime internally consistent. I use the toy/Battle Story lore where it works and just make shit up everywhere else. I'd say my hc lore is 50% extrapolation from the anime(s), 10% Other Zoids Canon and 40% Shit I Made Up. My thoughts on the wild incompatibility of the various canons...? Ehhh, we have a meme on the Zoids Discord:
Tumblr media
...which is kind of how I view it, it needn't be frustrating. Of course, if you want to combine all the various shows together? I can see how it'd be frustrating. I don't do that, I don't see any way to make it function, but more power to the folks who want to do that. I would like to Talk About Zoids more, but when I get to working on the things that take time (commissions, fic, comics, etc) it makes me quiet on here. I don't want people to think I am not around! Just I can't necessarily blather about what I'm thinking about because it'd be spoilers. :v

So I watched The Virgin Suicides the other day and it was a film that I thought I would have loved but, instead, I found it underwhelming. If you wanna fight me on that, stop reading this post already because it's NOT on The Virgin Suicides, but on another movie completely.
Seen as I thought I would have loved The Virgin Suicides and I didn't, because I am tired ans recovering from a day long hangover I decided to watch a movie I never wanted to watch because I could already tell I was going to hate it: Pacific Rim. Now, other than the obvious reasons of the experiment and also my brain not being able to understand anything deeper than Pacific Rim right now, I have other reasons to watch this movie: Charlie Day, Burn Gorman (am I the only one who watched Forever?) and their ship, which I was aware of even before I was aware of the movie.
I have also a history and not being very on-board with del Toro's works lately, namely Pinocchio's movie (another movie I thought I was gonna love), Crimson Peak (I have a list of complains I have been keeping to myself since 2015) and Cabinet of Curiosites (cool project, execution meh). But, believe it or not, I like usually like del Toro's work. I usually like it a lot. I honestly couldn't believe something that I have always thought as bootleg Evangelion could be directed by him, but hey, life wouldn't be as beautiful as it is without surprises.
So now I am watching Pacific Rim. And to anyone who cares, I am noting down my thoughts as I go.
The initial monologue already makes me laugh, I'm sorry, it feels so...rushed
Cool things exploring the pilot becoming famous stuff and the toys and the marketing of war, quite brilliant tbh
The pilots are already the most annoying things put on this Earth
Was that a Star Wars quote?
"Yeah we're like not smart or strong or talented or anything we just basically hit the genetic jackpot for piloting this stuff" tell me this was intentional satire
It's still so unbelievable to me this is a legit expensive movie with great directing and good actors.
this movie looks like it was 2013.
I feel like this whole merging mind and strong bond themes will be interpret by the fandom as sexual metaphors.
For some reasons to me the whole equipment things look like a Dance Dance Revolution platform but like way more advanced.
"Let's go fishing" this is SO corny my God
The monologues take themselves way too seriously I can't help snothing every time
There's something about the way they're showing us the monster I really like. Just parts of it. Not all together. This way you build tension, this way you make the spectator feel powerless because they still don't know how exactly this monster looks, they are at loss. Very, very nicely done.
Yeah I can't take this seriously I am trying but I just can't. Also I don't give a fuck about the battle. Where's Charlie Day.
Bruh why is Idris Elba there
Oh so. So he's fucking dead. I mean I am still laughing but I am impressed.
Is he going to grunt in pain for long?
What the fuck was that transition.
Cool scene small robot big robot not gonna lie
This whole scene of him panting is cool, but it would have been cooler without the dramatic music trying to make this more "epic".
OH IT'S SO COOK WHEN THE BLOCKS STARTED TO FALL OH MY GOD THE TITLE THE TITLE IS SO FUCKING COOL
Nice shots of destroyed city
Now my old anime fan mind made the connection Jeager-AOT, wow, I am tired
All the politicians look like cunts
Was that a drug?
Idris Elba I love you but this whole "we don't need them stuff" I really don't like this, there are few things I hate more than movies trying to make militaries look really cool when they break the rules
Oh so the Trump solution. Really like. Real subtle there. (I KNOW Trump wasn't elected yet in 2013 but you get it. Like even before him wall rethorics to stop "dangers"). Like here it would even be justified to build a wall, why are they making it so- oh wait this is actually just Attack on Titan, isn't it.
Where is Charlie Day.
Cool visuals.
THE ROBOT SHOOTS MISSLES FROM HIS TITS?
Maybe I have like. Already forgotten who the pilot in TV fucking is.
I don't know why but Charlie Hunmanby way to talk in this movie makes me laugh so much
No yeah so Charlie Hunnam stands up and walks NOT to face Idris Elba? Who wrote this. Who wrote the fake epic moments.
Charlie Hunnam you are a good actor, so what happened to you?
"Where would you rather die?" Who gives a FUCK he is gonna die anyway
This movie cannot make me believe in the reasons of his characters for 10 seconds I swear. I cannot empathise with anyone. Yeah even if Charlie Hunnam's figurative brother died while they were connected.
Who's the sexy lady
Bilingual flex
THE REASONS WHY I WATCHED THIS MOVIE, HERE THEY ARE
Charlie Day whatever drugs are you on I'd like to try them
Oh God so like they're married-married
Charlie Day I fucking love you
Also the first thing popping through my mind is that Newt is like the same Newt from Good Omens and this makes no sense whatsoever
So Newt is like Hanji, I think?
Hermann and Newt are my only two braincells
Newt talking about kaijus🤝me taking about cannibalism
I missed Burn Gorman's voice so much
Charlie Hunnam why are you the main character
Feels a lot like Star Wars the Shutterdome
Okay so now here is one of my pet peeves. The clock. This is a super technological military base and you have a vintage clock for...aesthetic? A clock which tells you the most important thing ever aka when the kaijus are going to attack? And it's old timey to make it cute? Shut up.
I thought the huge explanation of the robots would have bored me but actually no.
Of the course they're Siberian so they're blond BUT he has a dark beard???? So he is not naturally blond????? But he is blond like his sisters so did they get matching hair dye just because??????
Thank God Charlie Day and Burn Gorman are back
Hermann has a cane? Super nice detail
Why isn't this movie abito Hermann and Newt
"Politics and poetry, promises, these are lies" he is like the anti Professor Keating
"Numbers are as close as we get to the handwriting of God" HOLD. THE FUCK UP. THIS IS ON OF THE RAWEST LINES I HAVE EVER HEARD. AND IT'S COMING FROM THIS MOVIE??????? DAMN. RESPECT.
SHUT UP NEWT HERMANN WAS HAVING A REAL EPIC MOMENT
I am Newt oh God I am Newt IT'S NOT SO EASY TO GET TO THE POINT F8RST I HAVE TO DO MY LONG ASS INTRODUCTION OR I WILL DIE
"The neural surge would be too much for a human brain" IDRIS ELBA SHUT UP YOU'RE NOT A DOCTOR
"Fortune favors the brave, dude" it is genuinely so nice hearing latin quotes still being used today, especially when they're being translated in other languages and are used "casually". Makes me feel proud of my studies.
BE A ROCK STAR, DUDE, BE A ROCK STAR
The visuals are really cool at times
I love Mori's hair
"You are unpredictable" he is the most basic male protagonist I have ever seen
WHY DID YOU BRING HIM HERE IF YOU DIDN'T THINK HE WAS THE RIGHT ONE
Sex? Sex tension? Maybe?
The urge to skip every scene that doesn't have Charlie Day or Burn Gorman in it
Bruh do not insult construction workers I will kill you
The most anticlimactic uncharismatic villain I have ever seen. He is evil because he is evil and is mean because we need a bad guy.
Combat scenes I thought were going to bore me but actually not.
Mori kick his ass
I don't understand what they're doing but I am intrigued
I am way more interested in Charlie Hunnam's plot now that Mori is copilot
Wait is she not
Bruh do not come up to her like that I thought you were gonna beat her up
Becket stop being a classic American hero for 1 minute
IDRIS ARE YOU SICK??? IS THAT TUBERCOLOSIS (It is not)
Newt is literally me.
It was supposed to be an emotional scene with the shoe and all but it's like. They're constantly trying to make scene emotional in this movie. But for me they just can't do it.
I feel like this going inside someone's mind thing should cause way more problems. Like someone can see my whole mind? Bet they're going to find something real fucked up or that angers them a lot so they just stop fighting the Kaiju to beat me up. Feels like that is what would actually happen.
I feel like the way Gorman is running with the cane is not very realistic. Coming from someone with a very weak ankle that had to use crutches a lot, especially recently.
"YOU! SHUT UP! You, keep talking" I feel like it has meme potential
BAD GUYS ARE ACTUALLY COLONIZERS, I AM BERY HYPED FOR THIS STORYLINE. LET'S FUCKING GOOOOO COLONIZERS SUCK.
IDRIS DO YOU WANT NEWT DEAD?????
Keep calling him Idris because I don't remember his name in the movie
Guy named Hannibal Chau was really hoping Mad Mikkelsen would have showed up
I really like the kaiju's design
Also I don't understand why she is holding a shoe? Is it broken? It doesn't look broken to me
I actually felt a bit of tension here, with Mako risking to fuck all up
Dearest Newt it would have killed you to bring an umbrella
I thought Kaiju bone powder was cocaine. It's actually Viagra. Alright.
OH THAT DOOR IS SO COOL. OH MY GOD WHY AM I REACTING LIKE NEWT.
I want Hannibal Chau's shoes. Love the whole outfit, actually. He slays. THE SUNGLASSES.
Hannibal Chau you're everything I wanna be. Also historical character? Damn you're killing it with the Ancient Rome reference, I thought it was after the cannibal.
Why all the military have the most annoying accent accents I have ever heard.
Bruh is Mako is your attack dog now
Like they're probably gonna make them fall in love but I like Raleigh and Mako as besties.
"You just hold back your little girlfriend" see he is the villain because he perpetuates amatonormativity
"One of you birches needs a leash" not gonna lie this line was fire
Raleigh stop with the fucking white knighting, Mako can kick both of your asses on her own, you know she can
No seriously can Mako say or do something and not stay in the back.
The combats scene are very cool in this movie
MAKO WHY DID YOU JUST STAND THERE.
Idris Elba vome on don't be so harsh on her
I love the kid actor for Malo and honestly I am not so fond of child actors usually. She is good.
The epic moments in this movie try to hard to be epic, also the transitions kinda suck.
Idris Elba in this movie is a such a mood "One, don't you ever touch me again. Two, don't you ever touch me again." me @/anybody
I honestly think I couldn't be able to go through this whole movie if the fake epic moments weren't done by Idris Elba, he is so good he makes decent scenes that I would have found excruciating otherwise. I hope they paid him a lot of money for this role.
Why is Charlie Hunnam acting like shit I HAVE SEEN HIM ACT GOOD. He says every sentence with such gravity you do not distinguish when you are really supposed to take him seriously.
Did Tendo stole 11th Doctor's wardrobe?
I am so bored by the robot scenes I am filling up the hashtags for the post rn
NEWT IS BACK????
Newt going from "I can't tell you" to "I'm gonna tell you" is peak literally me who cares about Ryan Gosling
Hannibal Chau looks like he came straight out Jujutsu Kaisen
Watching a robot movie not caring about the robots or any characters that are actually in it (the bad guy, the two Siberians, the Chinese triplets) is something. Like yeah go die in a pitch or smth see if I care. Give us nothing or give us everything it's the same to me.
I am really trying not to skip this part
I SAW GOTTLOEB IN THE BACKGROUND MY WILL TO LIVE IS RESTORED♡♡♡♡
Yeah no the monsters are pretty cool. I hope they win.
I smell something burning in my room it either a heart attack of I don't know. Maybe I should worry.
Fuck I can't understand where the burning smell comes from
Are they done yet with the battle?
TITS MISSILES MY FAVOURITE PART
No tits missiles????????
Yeah pretty fucking convenient yours's the only analogue
Okay Newt maybe you're drifting idea was kinda dumb if you didn't consider the two way brain
Bruh Hannibal Chau is so cool I want him to teach me how to be cool
Hermann go get your husband
Also this movie is set in 2020, I love old movies setting in the 2020 not having Coronavirus of course so I can legitimately say they canonically explore other timelines.
So not interested in the bad guy and his father
Of course they're Americans so they're trying to shoot guns at a beast that's 10 billions times bigger than them peak USA representation
Okay so obviously they are suddenly good at piloting this shit together because it's a movie and that's what happens in movie and now they need a win to demonstrate Idris Elba they were right
Are they gonna fight monsters for long yet? Are they?
I am thinking of all the damages done to the city and this makes me anxious. Of course like the monsters were going to destroy the city anyway so any collateral damage done by the robots are justified to me but I am so anxious.
Definitely dead. Also, very nice, BE SURE YOU KILLED THAT GUY. YEAH, DON'T LIKE END UP GETTING FUCKED BECAUSE YOU WEREN'T THOROUGH. LOVE THAT SHIT, WHEN CHARACTERS DO THING THAT MAKE SENSE.
Why is Newt the only one not flinching.
Okay but I love the concept of everyone pushing Newr to the Kaijus. Peak human behaviour. Datk just enough.
Did he...lick him? He went to lick Newt like a dog and then went away? What even. Loved it.
I have to see robots fight????? Again???? In my robot fighting movie?????? Despicable and a tragedy.
I need Hermann back, I miss him.
Dumb as fuck that scene with Newton's cradle but I liked it so much.
I would judge their battle dynamics but I don't want to invest so much attention into them
A FUCKING SWORD?????
"For my family" corny af
Liked the calm electronic voice while they were falling and it was nearly silent
So very anxious about the city damages
HERMANN YOU'RR BACK♡♡♡♡♡
MEWT MY BELOVED
"GUESS WHO'S BACK YOU ONE EYED BITCH" sir how do you feel about marriage? Like I am usually against it, but for you, for you I'd make an exception
I want Idris Elba as my parental figure he gives steadiness
BRUH DROP THE ILLNESS NAME
I love the mini kaijus
Becoming a kaiju grrroupie
The pelvic area? Are they in the kaijussy?
THE KAIJUSSY IS HAVING A BABY
BABY!!!!!! COME TO MAMA!!!!!!!!!
Wait is like Newt the father of the baby, though the drift or smth
Hermann good news you two can adopt now
HANNIBAL NO
Well Charlie Hunnam you're not entitled to know Idris Elba's medical conditions
HERMANN AND NEWT TOGETHER???? WHAT A TREAT
Hermann bestie you're craaaaazy
I am Newton Geiszler around my friends Hermann Gottlieb with everyone else (I have the funniest story about messing up a handshake)
They're in lobe your honour
Idris shit man you ain't gonna be alright
IDRIS DO NOT GO DO NOT ABANDON YOUR DAUGHTER
Actually I am a bit emotional for this one
Cool speech moment I couldn't care less about
"Today we are cancelling the apocalypse" plot of Good Omens in a nutshell
"You're an egotistical jerk with daddy issues" or, as I like to call it, lazy writing
Am I supposed to care about him now? Too late I guess
BEAUTIFUL DOG I WANNA HUG
So Idris Elba's name is Stacker, got it after more than an hour
Nice scene when the father says "that's my son you got there" though. It felt emotional.
NEWT AND HERMANN♡♡♡♡♡♡
Also like it seems a lot easier to be drift compatible, at the beginning of the movie it felt like a very complicated thing
Convenient toilet
Newton has ripped jeans? He's really 2 cool 4 school
"Move you, fascist" hits different for an Italian in 2023
I actually like this plot with the signature and the barcode for the breach
There are 13 minutes left I am so scared they'll all be about robot fighting I cannot watch them for so long without any interruption
What that sword is made of seriously
The ONLY reason I am still watching is because I hope there's another scene with Newt and Hermann
Okay actually emotional over Idris Elba and Mako
Are they gonna die? No wait guys I do not like you but you can't die
YOU ALLED HIM SENSEI? LIKE OKAY BUT I WPUOD HAVE LIKED IT BETTER IF YOU HAD CALLED HIM DAD
Again, this doesn't feel as epic as it should for me. Rationally I know it is epic but I am not feeling it.
How many minutes left I am getting restless
The fall dialogue was fine. I liked it. "Anyone can fall"
I love the Kaijus design
Wait and it's so powerful that they killed the breach? Entirely? I don't know how I feel about that.
Interstellar reference????
YEAH HE IS ALIVE I don't even care about him anything I am relieved???
So it's done? Breach killed and all that?
HERMANN AND NEWT ARE GOING TO KILL ME♡♡♡♡♡
Nice seeing the father sad for his son
So they're in love now? I hope not. I liked them as besties
In the end, did I like this movie? No, that's pretty much a no, although I went in expecting to hate it 100%, while actually it was more like 85%. It's not a joke, honestly there were some nice things for me and the fact that I didn't completely hate it took me by surprise and I do consider this a victory. I heard the second one sucks, but since Charlie Day and Burn Gorman are still gonna slay in it, I'll watch it. The experiment could have gone worse, I am proud of myself.

New WIP
because I can't seem to actually sit the fuck down and finish a fucking story due to IRL stuff (work, mainly just work) here's another WIP after rewatching EP11 of 86 cour 2 (kenot recc this anime enough, worth all the rewatches and then some) Notes: - it kinda sorta ties in to the christmas gift thing i did last year, so you might wanna check that one out before you start. link is here.
it's pre-relationship fic so if that's not your jam consider other fics like my sokkla saturday submissions for 2020 / other assorted one shots.
put on either Voices of the Chord or Avid at the part where you see an * trust me, it helps set the mood. alternatively, just have the ep playing as you read.
lastly our girl azula (+ a whole bunch of atla characters) is slightly (or very, depends on how you wanna slice the pie) OOC but it be like it do when it comes to AUs. i don't make the rules.
Anyways....
Enough. 
The dead belong to the past.
They must be separated from those who still remain in the world of the living, Sokka thought to himself as he piloted his Feldress towards the sentient railgun, using the fact that it was distracted by Kiyi placing the muzzle of his pistol against her temple. Firing off the grappling hooks, he maneuvered himself up onto the grotestesque machine, keenly aware he only had one shot left in his gun, the weight of his comrades' sacrifices hanging heavy on his mind, the last being Zuko's crippled mech seemingly obliterated by the field gun they were tasked with destroying.
Bobbing and weaving amongst the deadly appendages that threatened to slice his own machine like a hot knife through butter, Sokka put on a masterclass of Juggernaut piloting for a non-existent audience, even as his thoughts churned and swirled like the River Styx of the underworld.
What good is there for you to so desperately cling on to this sham of a life?
You can't go anywhere.
You're nothing.
So let go. 
Sinking his machine's piledrivers into his target, he depressed his gun and shoved it down at the central nervous system of the railgun and pulled the trigger. With a dull roar, the one remaining shell exited the barrel of his gun and slammed 20 pounds of HEAT into it, blowing a hole out the other side and sending fragments of hot metal in all different directions. In that split second, his thoughts were rudely interrupted by an external voice, as he felt a phantom hand grip his own.
Tsk, take a look at yourself in the mirror.
We're closer than you like to admit. You, and I, have nothing left. 
No, you want to die in battle more than you ever wanted to live, correct? Then why are you still alive?
As the phantom voice left him with the one question Sokka did not wish to answer the most, the self-destruct sequence that had begun counting down since he blew its metaphorical brains out hit zero, initiating a chain reaction of explosive charges that reduced it to a hunk of burning metal, the force hurling his machine into the air like a toy tossed aside by a petulant child. Knocking his head against the headrest, he blacked out as the machine sailed through the air, before crashing into the field some five hundred meters away.
Dream sequence one
Slammed against the wall of his bedroom, Sokka could only whimper, his hands scrabbling against Katara's as she attempted to choke him, her face twisted with rage as she blamed him for the death of their mother, the phrase "If it wasn't for you….if it wasn't for you…."
Dream sequence two
Just as the chant grew to a crescendo, it just as suddenly ceased as the scenery now changed to the rolling grasslands, the spiteful hurting tone his sister used now reverting back to the kind and gentle voice as he now felt the shard of his sister's Juggernaut in the palm of his hand.
You won't be bothered by me anymore. Just forget me.
No, no no no no, wait for me sis!
Just then, a familiar voice called out his name, startling him.
"Sokka!"
Turning around, he saw a bloodstained Jet, the trademark stalk of wheat hanging from the side of his mouth at the head of a group who all sported similar injuries, a distinctive patch of dried blood on the side of their heads.
"Thank you, Sokka." The spectre of Jet spoke, prompting a flurry of gratitude from each member of the group, thanking him for not letting the Legion condemn them to an eternal existence as ghosts in the machine before flickering out of existence. 
Out of nowhere, the mocking voice of Kiri interjected once more with his sneering words
You are nothing.
Belong nowhere.
Nothing to live for, no end goal in sight.
No one to bid farewell to, no reason to live.
Killing me was the one thing that kept you going all this while. So what are you going to do now?
I mean, you don't have anything else to live for, right?
Dream sequence three
Before he could even reply, Sokka found himself chipping away at the metal husk of the Juggernaut with his bayonet, trying to extract a piece of his sister's Juggernaut, even as the kind voice of his sister seemed to mock him with every blow that he swung.
Of course, I'm not expecting you to completely forget me. Just, y'know, think of me occasionally.
Live, Sokka. Be free and happy.
"Freedom?! Happiness?! Easy for you to say! You. Left. Me. Alone!" he snapped back. With a final blow, the blade on his bayonet shattered, grazing him above his left eye.
"Why does everyone have to die and leave me behind ?" he half sobbed, half whispered to himself, the burden he bore threatening to sever his already tenuous link to sanity.
It can't be helped, can it?, Kiri's voice answered. I mean, you've always been putting your life on the line like you've got a death wish, dragging your friends and companions into the jaws of death every single time you go out to combat. Kind of selfish, no?
Looking up, he found himself at the memorial site staring at the first person he performed a mercy kill on since leaving the Republic on a suicide mission all those months ago.
"Thank you…Shin." it smiled, showing him a portrait of a small girl in a locket before closing it and vanishing.
Out of nowhere, he heard Kiyi's voice come from behind "Your heart has already been hardened, hasn't it? That's why it hurts so much when your friends show care and compassion for you, doesn't it?"
"You don't have to bear this cross alone."
"You can count on us."
Turning around, Sokka saw his comrades Zuko, Suki, June and Lu Ten approach him in a column with Kiyi leading them. Upon seeing them, he stretched out his hand towards them, only to have it sliced clean off as his field of view narrowed down to a slit.
"Looks like we're leaving you behind. Again." Zuko's phantom commented in a tired tone.
"Wait, wait, wait no!" he cried. Suddenly, he felt his body jerk and Sokka found himself back to reality, his hand stretched out as if reaching for some distant object over the horizon.
Glancing around, he saw that the railgun he and his team set out to destroy a little over two days ago was now a smouldering wreck in the distance. Turning to his other displays, he saw that the rest of his friends showed no signs of life, confirming what he suspected to be the case.
He was alone. 
Left behind. Again.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the fragment of his sister's Juggernaut had fallen out of his pocket. Bending his body forward, he stretched out to grab it when an alert blared out, informing him that there was a hostile approaching him.
So naive to think it's all over.
Did you really think it would be that easy, Reaper? Surely not. Kiri's mocking voice sneered at him, one last cruel joke from beyond the grave as a lone Amiese scout crawled ever closer.
At this, Sokka finally snapped and he screamed "Kill me already!", tears of frustration flooding his eyes as he awaited the inevitable.
Opening his eyes, the last thing he expected to see was a Republic soldier running towards him, the ubiquitous battle rifle slung over her shoulder as she approached his stricken mecha. Pressing the loudspeaker option on his side panel, Sokka called out "Hey, you there, are you from the Republic of San Magnolia?"
At this, the girl stopped and turned, before replying "Yes. Who are you?"
"We're at the westernmost limit of the Federal Republic of Giad. I am affliated with the 177th Mechanized Corps. To maintain our defensive lines, we initiated a long range reconnaissance patrol to neutralize the railgun, which has been codenamed 'Morpho'. Thank you for your support."
"Thanks, but are you….alone? Being sent on a suicide mission like this deep behind enemy lines? That's a harsh and inhumane thing to do!" Azula replied.
"Thank you for your concern. The main force is only a few clicks away. See you again someday."
"That's good to hear."
"Do you want to come with us?"
"What?"
"I mean, there can't be too many of you left, right? If so, we can protect you." At this suggestion, Azula's face hardened.
"No. To suggest that I do so is to spit on the blood sacrifices this country and their soldiers made so that others may live. I have a duty to them as their commanding officer even….even if I might fail." Azula responded, the last part coming out as a whisper as her mind flashed to the recent memory of close quarters street to street fighting in the heart of the capital itself, the stench of blood and gunpowder still fresh in her mind.
"I will stay here and keep fighting to my very last bullet and last breath."
At this, Sokka snorted and replied "Keep fighting? For what? Do you have a death wish or something? If not, then why?"
At this, Azula marched forward, intent on giving the pilot a piece of her mind (and a couple of hard spankings with the butt of her rifle if need be). Behind her, a Republic Juggernaut in olive green scuttled up to her, only for Azula to activate her para-raid and order the Processor to stand down.
"What the hell are you thinking? Get the fuck out of there, Your Majesty! The hell do you think you're doing prancing around the battlefield with no armour on?" a familiar voice rang out to Sokka.
*"No. Besides, how would you know if anything were to happen, if at all. Besides, if I didn't run then why would I run now? Until my last dying breath, I'll keep fighting. There's a lot of people who hold the same belief as I do, it's only right that I catch up with them and lead them forward!"
"Listen up, I am the commander in chief for the defense of the Republic, Captain Azula and I will never, ever, abandon my people and my country!"
"Ma-ma-major?" Sokka hesitantly asked, immediately recognizing her voice and prompting a gasp from Azula as the gears in her mind started to click into place.
"Those whom you speak of have already gone to the land of the dead. What obligations do you have for ghosts and spectres?"
"Because someone once told me 'Don't forget me.' Because of him, I survived the Legion's assault on the capital. That is why I keep fighting, so I can meet him one day. Even if they're all dead, I want to keep living. Because that's what they would have wanted for me."
Pulling out a faded Polaroid and a sketch of a pig dressed like a princess, she turned it around and showed it to him.
"That is why I fight. Because they wouldn't have had it any other way. Surely you think the same way right? After all, you fought so hard to get to this point, I think you should be proud of yourself."
At this, Sokka choked up again, relieved to hear the familiar voice of his beloved major.
Pressing the hatch release, Sokka could only stutter "Ma-major, I-" before the chatter of approaching Legion forced him to reseal his hatch. Grabbing the controls, he gritted his teeth and attempted to have his mech get back on its legs.
Just then, the olive green Juggernaut skidded to where Azula stood and interrupted her "Gran Mur's calling, Legion are approaching!" 
"Shit! You from the Federacy, come with us!"
"No." was Sokka's reply, just as artillery shells streaked across the sky, before slamming into the horizon.
"No…no way..you've got to be-"
"What's wrong Cyclops?"
"You don't recognize that mark?"
"That's a Federacy emblem right?"
"No, that-well, you wouldn't have seen it before."
"Huh?" Cyclops replied, as the corps commander strolled out from a helicopter.
"Good work, Lieutenant."
"Sir, please don't assume we're all dead, y'know." 
"Exactly, I mean, did you Suki was crying non-stop for five hours straight?" Lu Ten chided.
"I was not!"
"Well now Sokka, I did warn you what would happen if you made her cry again." June added.
"You dumbass, we thought you died after you failed to move from that blast." Zuko lectured. "Well, the good news is we all survived. No one has gone ahead of the other. So rest easy."

uhhhhh this site sucks i had to edit this four times to get the thing to actually do thee cut goddamn its more cuz its a block'a text no one should be forced to scroll THAT long over sheesh
Just putting it under a read more as people really hate the animation/show and the weird thing is it's one of the few times I think I've related to a character present in it (who is usually the topic of everyone's derision) in such a way where it's like looking in a mirror when I was... god, fucking 12 - 22~, and kind of it clicking in my head what was wrong with me. Not like, full picture, but. I don't know, I never really related to a character like this before and it's weird. Not necessarily in a bad way, either. Like, it makes me uncomfortable. Sure, but it's kind of... a healthy discomfort, for me at least. To see it all laid out in this way where it... and I feel pathetically stupid for this, clicked in my head why someone from my trans therapy group yelled at me after they realized how I was treating myself. I went through a lot of similar dark places. I behaved in similar ways. I got yelled at, like I deserved, but never understood why someone cared. I've been working on self improvement in this area for a while, and it's absolutely the hardest one. And a lot of it did, maybe stupidly? Begin with this character and some of the songs that followed, and now I'm really thinking back on it since my boyfriend and I watched the newly released show and. There's a scene that hit me really hard. I don't think it didn't belong there. It nailed in the idiot part of my brain the "see? other people have problems like that. Know people like that. Are treated that way, too. It's not that there's something wrong with you, intrinsically. Just a dash of rotten luck and collapsing in on yourself in the aftermath." It took it seriously, in a context that meshed with my brain to where I felt like "yeah, that's. That's at least. How I felt. Pretty much. When I was treated like that. Brushed it off and turned it into jokes, too." I don't wanna get into all the nitty gritty details, because they aren't pretty and I still have to contend with it. But it felt kinda... mmm, I don't know, like when I saw so many people shitting on it - saying it doesn't belong, in fact, this should never be portrayed, it's immoral to portray this and so on. I have such a warped view of... the topic, I guess? But I mean, it did help me contextualize a few things better that I've been struggling to. And I found a lot of comfort in that uncomfortable scene because of that. And... like, I know I have a... how do I phrase it, like a... not... normal view? Since I... like, was kinda... I mean. Like. I. I don't know. I mean I know. I just. You know. But I don't know, like. I feel nervous talking about it, because of the media property it's related to and how strongly people feel about it. And, I mean, I know the healthy answer is to just be "fuck it, you're allowed" but I guess I just think back to all the times things I liked/cared about were shit on and feel like "Should... I feel... guilty? Because I kinda do. And I don't think I should. But maybe I should? Is there something to it or... something that I don't get?" and yeah this is about Angel Dust in Hazbin Hotel. yeah this is the character story that got me to (even with the pilot/songs) try to actually tackle this shit 'cuz I still can't get myself to physically talk about these things irl. and. idk. its. mm. its hard to really feel like im. i just. i dont talk about it much at all 'cuz i dont wanna annoy people if they hate the show 'n stuff 'cuz i know ppl feel strongly and. yeah. so i over explained it because a part of me wanted to express a kinda... happiness that a story got me to think better about myself. and i dont. understand why there's so many like. snap judgments or vitriol, i guess.

Ten Characters, Ten Fandoms
i got tagged by @apathetic-theme-song
Shion - King of Fighters
Sabrina/Natsume - Pokemon
Duo Maxwell - Gundam Wing
Makoto/Lita Kino - Sailor Moon
Cho Hakkai - Saiyuki
Yuuko Ichihara - xxxHolic
Count D - Pet Shop of Horrors
Vincent Valentine - Final Fantasy VII
Kimimaro - Naruto
Alphys - Undertale
i can never think of anyone to tag but if you wanna do this because you saw me do it, feel free to @ me and make me look at your list :3
also this isn't required but bc i love them i put images and brief descriptions of all of these characters under the cut
Tumblr media
Shion, my beloved; the androgynous sub-boss of King of Fighters XI, he uses multiple weapons including a rope-dart, chinese spear, meteor hammer, and can punch air so hard it turns into a projectile. he often quotes Sun Tzu's Art of War, knows tons about cooking, and loves eating delicacies. currently wandering some kind of weird extradimensional space after his boss tried to kill him (he got revenge tho >:3 he can have little a murder, as a treat.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Sabrina/Natsume (left) in the Pokemon anime had psychic powers so strong she splintered her personality into a grown-up half and a child half, both of which were able to exercise their own wills independently (the latter via a doll). she was scary, but eventually became more lighthearted and rejoined her split halves thanks to a goofy Haunter.
Duo Maxwell (center) is many things: orphan, gifted mechanic, and self-proclaimed God of Death--which is why he's the pilot of the Deathscythe, a grim-reaper-esque mecha. he witnessed a lot of death early in life, to the point that even his first and last names connect him to people close to him who died
Makoto/Lita Kino (right) is Sailor Jupiter; she's strong, tall, tomboyish, and self-sufficient after the loss of her parents. Her lightning attacks are powerful, but her sense of justice is even more so. She has a cute side, too, and gets flustered when someone calls her feminine. >:3
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Cho Hakkai (left), problematic fave #1. the mom friend, and a stepford smiler who took a correspondence course in lockpicking, he's atoning for incest and mass-murder by....doing more mass-murder, but the gods told him it was cool this time. to be fair, he's mostly a healer now, as well as the party's designated driver (his dragon, named Jeep, turns into a Jeep).
Yuuko Ichihara (right) is a space-time witch who grants wishes. i want to say more but instead i'll just plead with you to read the xxxHolic manga (and read/watch Tsubasa -RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE- for the full experience, since they have some story linkage).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Count D gets two images for a little gallery because look at this freak. gorgeous. the way they move in the OVA is fantastic. genderless sugar-addicted ecoterrorist; what's not to love??
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Vincent Valentine (left) is a gunslinger who can transform into a fanged monster and chooses to sleep off his depression in a coffin, but he's not a vampire. that's just how it is sometimes. he even joins the hero party without doing anything to fix his bed hair.
Kimimaro (center) has a bloodline ability that lets him utilize his bones as weapons. As a child, he was kept in a cage and only released for combat, despite his gentle nature. Orochimaru (the series' first main antagonist) found him after his clan was wiped out, and took him in; being valued by Orochimaru gave him purpose, and he fights like a zealot as a result... (;A;)
Alphys (right) is a cringefail otaku lesbian lizard who, nevertheless, is a brilliant scientist. she created Mettaton's mechanical body, after all. we don't need to talk about her other works. :) really. :) :) :)

This or That: Writer Edition!!!
open tag from @kudzucataclysm ! open tag for yall too bc i just wanted to ramble with this akjbfgksd
historical or futuristic
I tend to focus either a changed version of our era or the future, ORR just completely rewrite history with batshit insane worldbuilding. As for SUL I really like the mix between futuristic and fantasy elements, like RWBY or Lego Monkie Kid; but I don't really tend to go past the 2000s millenia for my stories lmao
2. the opening chapter or closing chapter
Whenever I have a story I feel like I have a vague plot and only the Point B. Openings are SUPER hard because you have to make sure you hook the reader with the most basic, not-developed-yet versions of the characters. Even harder in trying to study pilot episodes as an animation major @_@.
Fun fact, SUL's ending scene has been the same since 2017!
3. light & fluffy or dark & gritty
I really like exploring darker topics; it'd be a real challenge for me to make something 90% wholesome. However I always want some form of happy ending despite all the darkness. Even looking at the Winter Boys, Cobalt gets his arm cut off, Ventus loses his girlfriend and gets used by his former gang members, and Nix... Nix goes through a lot akjbgsdkgsd, but all of them still find happiness in the end
4. animal companion or found family
Found family! The struggle with animal companions is simply just, not forgetting that they exist lmao. Especially as someone who tends to just do normal dog/cat animals, none of the animal companions are sentient enough to carry themselves. My main stories (SUL, ETSS, AuAg) all have elements of found family :] bc at least I can explore the emotional range of a human more than my dog lmao
5. horror or romance
im a huge wuss ngl KBSGJKSGS all of my pure horror concepts tend to get fueled into Last Light because of how much of a wuss i am JBSKGJS. Even though I chose romance I never tend to make it the MAIN focus of a story; CoRi in SUL you see the middle point, fallout, and (hopefully) getting back together, though the main point of SUL would be exploring the trust issues between ALL Paladins and not just the ones romantically involved. Venpris is technically a side piece in AuAg's general crime plot (as tender and intimate as they are), and ofc ETSS has space-apple wars to wage in between all the LuxNex fluff
6. hard or soft magic system
I need a hard system bc Im too stupid to make a soft one JKBFGSKJGD
I guess for SUL actual "magic" tends to be pretty soft since it's implied witchcraft is something gods have gifted to mortals BUT in all fairness I'm still plotting the witchcraft elements of SUL
For actual elemental powers I'm still constantly adding rules and this or that for SUL characters simply because it feels more organized and thus more organized for me to put into a plot lol
7. standalone or series
Seriessss I grew up with MLP multiple seasons, Yugioh + Yugioh GX multiple seasons,,, heck also RWBY and Lego Monkie Kid multiple seasons. I dont tend to get SUPER attached to specific movies, especially standalones, so my brain just sorta automatically tries to write stuff as if they're multiple season projects. ETSS and SUL have the most obvious season-by-season plots, though AuAg so far I'm not super sure about BUT definitely feel like it'd span multiple episodes
8. one project at a time or always juggling two+
I always hyperfixate on one at a time JBSKDJSG in between bursts of SUL it's been ETSS, sprinkles of AuAg, then that brief period of JMON in Fall 2021.
9. one award winner or one best seller
I'm not really sure if I have a preference for either of these tbh LMAO I just wanna create and hope theyre successful enough to carry me throughout life
10. fantasy or sci-fi
Im too stupid for sci fi tbh JBSKJGS I always worry about getting this or that wrong so I tend to go pretty fantasy bc I have fun worldbuilding it knowing I can just do batshit whatever like the very first instances of SUL basically mixing YuGiOh and MLP logic akjbfskdg.
11. character or setting description
I may be an art major but I'm an art major who hasn't done proper backgrounds since high school JKBGKSJGS I think a lot of my descriptions are pretty clunky In General but characters are easier since I always have character designs first before environmental design
12. first or final draft
A lot of my work at the moment is based off of doing things quickly. The Atlasify comics, my own writing, heck my art too. I don't like spending too long on certain projects or such so technically all of my work is first drafts bc I wanna get stuff done first instead of never finishing one project
13. love triangle in everything or no romantic arcs
Technically both ETSS and SUL have somewhat love triangle moments but
a.) ETSS is more an exploration on identity than romance
b.) the SUL love triangle is literally between turqbalt's two identities and rina
BUT god I'd rather have no romantic arcs at all than actual love triangle moments. Do you know how many teleseryes have the cheesiest cliche love triangles? No thank u I wanna do all or nothing
14. constant sandstorm or rainstorm
i love the rain :] the air is fresh and the plants look greener. i dont think my asthma would love lots of sand tbh

🕯Anon said: just wanna say I adore your writing and how you write Reiner and the kids and the other warriors is my favourite thing ever !! I just wanna give them all hugs :) do u have any hcs for the types of jobs you see them all doing in modernverse ?🕯
The types of jobs they have in modern au
{Annie, Bertolt, Colt, Marcel, Pieck, Porco, Reiner, Zeke, }
{Implied Reiner x reader}
Tumblr media
{ "Porto" 1935 by Renato Natali 1883-1979 }
Annie is an Animal rescue worker.
Having had experience as a dog trainer before, it wasn't hard to find a full time job at her local shelter after graduating high school, having volunteered there before.
With time, effort and a lot of energy she made her way into the position of "animal control officer" now she spends her days busting animal's abusers doors and rescuing injured or neglected pets.
With long shifts and a high maintenance job, her time was all poured into her work. Usually she'd be exhausted after a long day.
Despite that, she's fulfilled and satisfied with her job. Not having to deal with a lot of people is a plus too, it's a hard job yes but she prefers it this way.
Her friends are bumped about not being able to see her a lot but they understand, plus she keeps in touch with them by lurking in the group chat only to send a snarky remark to stir the pot every now and then.
Bertolt sees her everyday because they work at the same animal shelter, even if their jobs are different they still walk home together, she also met some different people like Hitch and Marco at her job.
The kids love her job, they think it's badass, especially Gabi and Udo. Gabi because Annie gets to kick people in the face and Udo because he genuinely cares about animals.
She'd never tell anyone this, but part of the reason she wanted the job was because she felt guilty for her past self and wanted to fight for those who couldn't fight for themselves.
Bertolt is a veterinarian.
Having changed his mind post graduation and going to college instead of with Reiner, he graduated after 4 years of studying and is currently working with Annie at the local shelter while also planning to open his own clinic one day.
He takes some animals under his personal care for weeks or months even till they get adopted, he fears something bad will happen to the weak or ill ones if left at the shelter overnight.
Just like Annie, the job takes a lot of his time, not to mention caring for animals off of work. So he's in the same situation as her, but for the sake of his best friend he still finds time to visit and hang out once a week.
Reiner and him still text daily, it's mostly pictures Bertolt took of the animals, Annie on her break, interesting plants he finds along the way. And Reiner replies with pictures of the kids.
They still find time to play basketball together, they try to keep it a secret from Annie because she will kick their ass in it.
Bertolt is comfortable with his job, he feels like he belongs and likes being needed. Yes the long hours are a con but seeing the fruits of his labour grow and get better day by day makes it all worth it.
The kids like visiting his house because there usually will be a new dog or some animal in there every month or so, Reiner makes sure they don't bother the animals. 
Something he's never told anyone is a big part of the reason he changed his mind last minute was because Animals feel much safer and secure for him to work with than humans.
Colt is a college student working part time.
He's majoring in nursing, being a four years degree he's trying to balance his studies with work and taking care of Falco.
Zeke offered him to work full time after graduation at his clinic, since he's been working part time there for a while and the pay is good, plus it's really convenientnal.
He has worked different part time jobs in the past like a barista, flower shop assistant, tutor, kindergarten teacher, etc.
Between all his responsibilities he barely has time for himself, his courses end right before his work starts and the small bits in-between is spent on Falco and his friends. Zeke and Pieck try to take some of his responsibility but he refuses saying it's the least he could do to Falco.
He's really good at his job like multitasking, reading people, gaining their trust and having high stamina that he could stay for night shifts even.
He relies on coffee a lot.
Falco sees him as a real life superhero, they weren't that close before but after the incident he really started appreciating his big brother. 
Something he keeps inside is that despite pursuing this job because he genuinely wanted to make a difference in people's lives and help the sick, he also felt a crushing guilt after his parents passed away, and so he's trying to save other people's lives now instead.
Marcel is a pilot.
It's a dream he always had since middle school, soon after graduation he joined the military to gain enough flying hours and experience to apply to a commercial airline after taking some mathematics, aviation and some general flying courses.
He was officially hired as a pilot after getting his first class medical certificate to check his health.
His work isn't measured by hours to him but by days, he needs to be available 24/7 in case of an emergency call. Now he's working overseas and far away from his friends.
You've actually never met Marcel, only seen pictures of him and received letters. The person he keeps in touch with the most is Porco.
He likes his work, it's his dream. He doesn't like the work hours and being so absent from his friends and brother, he misses them so much at times.
Pieck is a tattoo artist.
Her shop is actually her old flower shop after she decided to change her career. She's always been good with plants and taking care of them, at that time Colt worked as her assistant. 
It wasn't till later after some years of practice and training under other artists that she was confident enough about her skills to start the project 
Her art is full of life, mesmerising and beautiful. She puts her soul in every piece and has gained a good reputation because of it, plus having really high ratings and strict hygiene rules, no health inspector could ever challenge her.
Having her own independent work meant that she has a very flexible schedule, being mostly free ment she could pursue other hobbies like gardening.
A peaceful and simple life where she can indulge in her art and be happy is all she ever wanted
Porco is a frequent customer of hers that gets a family discount, Zeke came once before and later sent his friend, a really tall and blonde woman who became her most frequent customer.
Zofia thinks her work is really cool and wants to go and just watch her do her thing, but it's frowned upon to have a kid just sitting at a tattoo shop.
Despite changing into this career, the town people still think of her as the sweet flower shop lady.
Porco is a bartender.
That job came to him by accident more than anything, he was working part time as a bouncer in a local bar but a slot was open after the old bartender suddenly quit and he gave it a chance.
He didn't expect to love it so much, neither did he know about his hidden talent in mixing drinks. So he took it as full time and changed to better bars after gaining the experience he needed.
Being naturally charismatic and good at influencing people, while also multitasking in making drinks and keeping a conversation going, he was instantly a hit in whatever place he worked at.
Working the night shift ment he's mostly free in the morning, he tries to help Pieck with her gardening and is actually attempting to grow some plants at his house.
Naturally whenever there's a gathering, he's the one mixing drinks and being the self assigned bartender who openly judges his friends for their choice in drinks. The charismatic persona being thrown out the window and replaced by a no mouth filter.
He genuinely cares tho, he's the one taking care of someone when they drink more they can handle. It's mostly Colt who underestimates his drinks and is left clinging to Porco who drives him home.
Because of his line of work, tattoos and general brash personality, the kids' parents don't like him even one bit. They're suspicious of him no matter how many times Reiner assures them he's trustworthy.
It's actually only Colt who trusts Falco with him, and maybe Zofia's mom who is at the bar every weekend. 
Reiner is a firefighter.
With his mother pushing him into this line of work, he applied for the physical and psychological exams after graduation before getting accepted. He wasn't unprepared per say but actually being in that line of work was more than he could ever prepare for.
It instantly took a great hit at his mental health, so much in fact that he was thankful Bertolt changed his mind last minute and didn't follow him in this job.
It was both everything he ever wanted, like saving people, helping children, animals and knowing it's him who saved them even if it means putting his own life at risk.
But also everything he hated, like the hunting faces and screams of the people who were far too gone for him to save, the recurring nightmares and constant guilt paired with imposter syndrome.
He works a 24/72 shift, meaning he works for a whole day before getting 3 days off. Approximately only working 7-8 days a month, not to mention unpaid leave, sick days and holidays.
So it both gave him a really tight schedule on some days and on others more free time than he knows what to do with, that's why he naturally took the main role of being the kid's caretaker. Looking after his little cousins genuinely helped him and he liked playing the big brother role.
Especially to Gabi, he was the only stable adult in her life. It's common knowledge that you call Reiner first for anything concerning her before her parents because he's more likely to answer and be available.
After meeting you, his life improved to the better as you moved in and became a trustworthy person in his life, someone he can depend on to take care of his little cousins on the days he works.
Not to mention that after you persuaded him to see a therapist, his mental health began improving too.
Gabi may or may have not committed arson at one point, she still wants to be a firefighter despite that and follow in Reiner's footsteps.
He hasn't told anyone beside you this, but he really fears for her, but doesn't have the heart to tell her no.
Zeke is a doctor.
Previously he worked in a hospital but was able to open his own clinic afterwards, Colt was a great help to him at that time when he was getting on his own feet and even worked a lot of unpaid hours.
After that he insisted Colt works an official part time job there with a much higher pay, till he graduates at least. Plus the experience will greatly improve his resume.
Zeke is brilliant at his job, he'd be a perfect doctor wasn't it for the fact he's a huge hypocrite who doesn't follow the advice he gives his patients. 
He does a side job in his free time that honestly no one of his friends know what it is, but they know it gained him a lot of connections and made new friends.
Something he always keeps buried inside was that he really never expected himself to become a doctor especially after what his dad did to his mother, and yet here he is. In some way it's like his own personal stepping stone to prove he's a better man than his father ever was.
