Who knows????#he’s not the most charming i guess??#and it’s like. that is LITERALLY not how that works…#you can’t just Decide that someone isn’t the protagonist because you don’t like them#HE’S LITERALLY THE POV CHARACTER LIKE WHAT THE FUCK#LET THIS MAN SUCK AND FAIL AND CRY AND BE THE PROTAGONIST#(also for the record - those are his best features imo - everyone else is just mean)#people will really see a depressed and traumatized man and go ‘wow he’s so boring’#because they are fools and understand nothing#anyway.#[redacted] is my lame ass boyfriend and if everybody doesn’t clap i’m blowing the whole building up

I'm just sayin', Starstruck and Kirby would be adorable. But also Starstruck and Meta-Knight might be the funniest thing you could possibly do. :)
hear me out: peter pan (2003) window scene
been staunchly avoiding typing too much on most of these but i have some thoughts about this one!
you know... i had actually never even considered kirby for the shipaganza. mostly because i think of him as holding such a strong and unique position in the hearts of everyone who knows him, in a way that is devout but also seems fairly romance-free. and i'm actually very interested in the complex relationships that he has with his friends! but i wonder if not considering him was maybe a disservice, because if anyone has an abundance of the capacity for love, it's him, right?
i think that kirby could eventually occupy a similar heart-space for starstruck as bandee, though it would take longer. i strongly suspect that bandee's love of kirby would rub off on her, if nothing else.
i'm not sure either of them... really understand the premise of romance or dating, so it might not be a typical sort of thing. but i think they could giggle and laugh together and shoot each other slightly smitten looks when the other one isn't paying attention, and be very invested in each others happiness.
he adds a pass by her window to his early morning flight, on the off chance she might be up to join him. she's always thinking of him when he's off saving the world, and distinguishes his star from all the others in the sky with ease. the irresistible allure of adventure vs someone who has never seen any of the wonders of your planet before. someone who finds as much unrestrained joy and delight in the mundane as you do. eating paper cups you find on the ground.
you know i could see it.
#my art#kirby#starstruck dee#🎀💖#you know the scene where she's hesitating in the window and the music starts and he shoots her The Most infectious smile of all time#that one!!!#does anyone remember this movie?#i think if kirby showed up in the window offering a whimsical adventure and a charming smile nobody would think twice.#when i made this comparison i could NOT stop thinking about it. peter and wendy are a little too romo coded for my tastes in general#but there's a beautiful feeling of choosing freedom and delight in that scene. and i think kirby COULD be a little cheeky!!#the part where he blows the fairy dust all over her? you know i considered it. considered drawing the whole thing. barely resisted.#is this one canon to her? yes. i think so but not romantically. and this visit might be a special circumstance.#he's a busy little guy; he doesn't take her as often as he might like. certainly not as much as SHE would like. but i think... yes.#at least once. as a treat.#you know what i think could also be cute? kirby/bandee/starstruck triad. drop a braincell haver (bandee) in there.#three circles who are absolutely insane about each other in a surprisingly similar way. i think it could work? yes? no? thoughts?#<- prompt it if you wanna see it i guess!#also... starstruck and meta knight..... we'll come back to that! we'll circle right around. boy howdy will we circle back to *that*.#*laughs nervously*

Yes, I would be very interested hearing your head canon (@tim-ribbert-56) (in response to this post)
I have decided for my personal entertainment that Clarisse de Cagliostro is related to Lupin III, and here's why.
-pulls out Arsène Lupin's Wikipedia page-
In the novel La Comtesse de Cagliostro, a young Arsène Lupin (at the time going by the name Raoul d'Andrésy) was courting Clarisse d'Etigues, a young lady of a well-to-do family, and trying to win her hand, despite her father's disapproval.
Throughout the course of the novel, Lupin meets and falls in love with Joséphine Balsamo, aka the Countess of Cagliostro, and abandons Clarisse in favour of her. To clarify, Joséphine is not actually countess of anything, she is (or claims to be) a descendant of Giuseppe Balsamo aka the Count of Cagliostro (who was also count of jack shit), a famous conman from the 18th century.
Shenanigans ensue, which I will not go into in details on, but oh my god I am insane about Raoul and Joséphine, I want to dissect them and study them under a microscope. It turns out Joséphine aka Cagliostro is evil as fuck, Raoul/Lupin realizes that and goes back to Clarisse (whom he had previously abandoned like an old sock, I fucking hate this guy), marries her, and a few years later has her kid.
Unfortunately Clarisse dies in childbirth, and Joséphine, who was still around and very very pissed at Lupin (and jealous as hell of Clarisse whom, may I mention, had never personally antagonized her in any way whatsoever, Joséphine is just fucking bonkers). Joséphine also kidnaps Lupin and Clarisse's son, Jean, and raises him as her own son. (I have not yet read the following novel The revenge of Cagliostro so I don't really know what Jean's deal is, I just know he's an antagonist).
The following is my headcanon, based on these events. In the universe of Lupin III, Joséphine Balsamo was actually countess of the small kingdom of Cagliostro (maybe Giuseppe was count, maybe he conned his way into becoming count, maybe he bought the land and built a fake kingdom with a fake history, who knows).
After the events of The revenge of Cagliostro, Jean settles down in the country of Cagliostro, gets married, has a child, and that child will later have a daughter of their own, who they name Clarisse, after their late grandmother. Clarisse de Cagliostro, of Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro fame, would thus be the great-grand-daughter of Arsène Lupin, making her Lupin III's cousin/niece/whatever you call this specific degree of separation.
I am choosing to make Clarisse de Cagliostro a great-granddaughter of Arsène Lupin, rather than a granddaughter, because Arsène Lupin was very young when the events I described unfolded: he is 20 years old when he meets Clarisse d'Etigues and the whole Cagliostro debacle happens, and 25 by the time Jean is born. I'm assuming he had Lupin II much later in his life. So Jean and Lupin II (half-brothers) would have a significant difference in age, and so Jean's hypothetical child (grandchild of Arsène Lupin, so of the same generation of Lupin III) would be much older than Lupin III. Clarisse de Cagliostro is younger than him, maybe around the same age if you stretch it, so she's have to be a great-grandchild.
Now I need to read The revenge of Cagliostro and study Arsène Lupin's wikipedia page in more detail to determine when exactly Lupin II was born and who his mother was. And also where Albert's family branched out, because the fact that he's called D'Andrésy should theoretically place him as a descendant of Arsène Lupin's mother but not of Arsène Lupin himself; but Jean was also going by that last name, so who fucking knows.
No I am not insane I promise, I am just a gigantic nerd.
#i have very mixed feelings about Papy Lupin Original Flavour#cuz you see in the first books he was pretty much like his grandson#a charming little bastard; smug as hell but also charming enough to make up for it#like. an ego the size of the eiffel tower but it's highly deserved#if he robbed me i would just thank him#you wanna punch him in the face but like. lovingly#then around The Hollow Needle he started acting weird#and after that his ego grew into a god complex the size of the eiffel tower and he just lost all the charm#like. just a huge dick honestly.#i thought that was a logical evolution after (SPOILER FOR THE HOLLOW NEEDLE) his wife got brutally murdered in front of his eyes#mere HOURS after they got married and he gave up his whole career as a thief for her#which would be an understandable evolution#but no he's also retroactively an asshole in The Countess of Cagliostro which is a prequel#i guess leblanc just decided 'lupin's a dick now'#which sucks#but on the other hand it's very funny to kinda hate-read The Countess of Cagliostro#i was honestly rooting for Joséphine for most of the book#she is fucking insane which is exactly what raoul/lupin deserve#you know that Mountain Goats song 'no children' ?#'hand in unloveable hand; i hope you die i hope with both die'#or that post that says 'i don't ship them they're too toxic / well i hope they kill each other mid-fuck'#well that's me with them#just reading on to see how many more life-ruining decisions raoul can bodily throw himself at#also leblanc did joséphine dirty!!!!!!!!#LET MY GIRL BE EVIL FOR GOD'S SAKE#none of that 'her fragile feminine nature' and fainting after murdering someone because deep down she can't bear her own cruelty#what the fuck#let her be genuinely unhinged!! let her bash raoul's head in with a meat hammer!!!!#(yes that is something that she tried to do)#anyway. justice for Joséphine Balsamo. god forbid women do anything

i think some of takeuchis art is really good and some of it is bad. is that an acceptable stance or is having a non-dichotomous opinion considered passé/wishy washy
#some of it is stiff and some of it is really charming#the simple stuff is really iconic but when he tries more complex designs it easily falls into looking goofy#he does make some really good expressions. it isn’t just olga and kagetora casotria had like 100 of them#like idk I feel like just saying ‘he’s a good artist’ or ‘he’s a bad artist’ is too simplistic#he has strengths and weaknesses and I think some of the issue is as a founding member of tm his weakness become in jokes that are encouraged#(Ie saberfaces)#rather than ignored or worked on#bc tbh a lot of anime art styles give everyone very similar faces but drawing attention to it does make people actually notice it far more#than if they had said nothing (like w artists like wada or nakahara)#most digital artists do reuse assets! but he has both a lot of visibility and a lot of influence in his company so people pick apart#his art for that stuff way more which isn’t really fair but at the same time#isn’t helped by the ongoing stuff w saberfaces etc#and he does need to have someone overseeing some of his designs to make sure they look good. like w Jeanne’s idol dress or 3rd summer outfit#i don’t think he’s a bad artist or designer I just think he could use more editing/less free reign on some cases if that makes sense#and idk. i do really like some of his art. castoria’s fa is really pretty#and sure he may have assistants but I’m fairly certain a lot of the prominent artists do…?#I’ll be honest and say I find his older art more lively#his newer art is much more polished but feels squarer#idk. idk I’m tired I guess#DOES THIS MAKE SENSE??? should I even post it#my post

Tsar Alexander’s portraits always make him look so… inconsistent? Idk it’s hard to picture him as a real person for some reason. I think the only thing that gives you a somewhat tangible impression of his face is his death mask
#when you google this dude there’s like 5 different looking people popping up#also what’s up with that neck boy? you got smth to hide?#alexander i of russia#tsar alexander i#history#napoleonic wars#I can’t get over the fact that he was considered like the most handsome guy in europe at the time like how#he must’ve really been charming in person I guess

i truly believe that you can’t properly capture quark’s essence in a drawing unless you wanna fuck him
#ppl who don't wanna fuck him always draw him ugly in the wrong way. either that or they don't draw him ugly Enough#you have to appreciate his ugliness exactly how it is. you have to think it's sexy#he's the most canonically sexualized character in the show. he's intended to be sexy whether or not you personally find him attractive#you have to at the very least recognize his sleazy charm and be like ''yeah i guess i could see why ppl are into him''#you could draw him super stylized and that's fine. you could simply doodle him in mspaint. you could draw him with complete realism too#but unless you think he's sexy it's not Truly him y'know. there's no Soul in it

I probably enjoy the Doctor Elise anime more than it really deserves, but I do find it incredibly funny that the main antagonist is just the kind king who wants Elise to be the empress because she'd clearly do a great job when she just wants to go off and be the best surgeon in the world
#I though they were building up Mil to be more of an antagonist but he's gone surprisingly sympathetic in the most recent episode#doctor elise#I keep wanting to not like it and it keeps being just charming enough#and I like all the doctor stuff#it does still feel like a less good 7th Time Loop but I guess that's what comes of all these isekais#which Time Loop isn't really but it is in spirit#bored badgering

the lie bruce tells himself (and others): he recruited jason to save his life
closer to the truth: he needed a robin
the truth: he missed dick
#bruce wayne#dick grayson#jason todd#batman#nightwing#robin#mypost#dc thoughts#to be honest i don't like any of the versions T.T#obviously my most detested version is the lie version#for OBVIOUS reasons#needing a robin is my favourite option i guess it made me think of the post that said how when tim said batman needs a robin#but it's never applied to jason#which is kind of funny reading this because he SAYS SO HIMSELF hahaha#i like the he missed dick version on one hand because dick and bruce's relationship means SO MUCH TO ME#but also i simply do not find the idea of adopting another child because of empty nest syndrome as charming or endearing#as the rest of the fandom seem to sometimes#but also the framing of this whole thing just seems like#he convinces himself that it is FOR jason and but the truth is that it is for HIMSELF and because of dick which is just sad to me :(#anyway... pre-crisis bruce loved jason more you cannot change my mind#probably because so much of post-crisis is written by starlin too but still

#what the fuck ever man not jealous at all or anything#i mean idk what she's presenting really but the fact that she's even involved!!! hello!!!#not discounting her work she's incredible but. she was also forced into a lot of stuff by this insane guy in our program#who totally totally creates his own legion of nepo babies#like! she's great but im also sitting here soooo bitter like. i could have done that. i just wasnt one of the hand selected people last#summer that this guy worked with. despite applying several times to work with him and now having met and interviewed with him#for a position i probably wont get cause he's gonna pick the most annoying evil insufferable girl instead just cause he knows her#she will absolutely not be a better representative of our school than i would be. im a really great speaker lol. and am generally charming#she has the personality of like. a fucking leech. she's terrible#and it's like do i want to work for this guy for a month while trying to get something out of this trip no but do i think im good enough#to deserve his backing like yeah. i was a better producer than one of his wunderkind lol.#wow ok sorry this is truly showing how cutthroat we little film kids will get i guess. it's just bullshit#you'd have to know this guy he's notorious with everybody in the film/english department#he could NEVER be my bestie prof. but my bestie prof also doesnt have all the same connections. but who cares he's also not the most#annoying guy on the planet#abby talks

Heem its a bit late but thinking about how me and Data are literally like [autism to autism communication] LIKE HE'S JUST LIKE ME FOR REAL 😭😭💖💖 like he doesn't always quite grasp social cues and sometimes his humor is more off-putting than he intends and sometimes he rambles on for long periods of time and ppl seem to be just waiting for him to stop and just....
Looks him in the eyes. I understand you. And I wanna communicate that he's not alone in feeling lesser bcs of these things and that it is NOT true, and that he can be accepted and loved for who he is without having to mask or pretend to be something he's not cause I like who he is and just 👉👈 aaaaaaggh
#jane journals#self insert talk#💛 love makes us human 💛#other people find him offputting? i find him CHARMING#and i LIKE when he gives the whole story when u ask him a question#there's no such thing as a small detail to him 🥺👉👈 and me and ruby were kinda talkin about that too#i like to think hed notice things in me i dont even notice in myself#and ugh i dunno i am thinkign about him#i dont have much to say in the tags cause i guess i said most of it in the post#but im gonna kiss that boy so MUCH

was bored so i scrolled down the blueycapsules william tag on twitter only to find out there was some kinda silly argument i think over William's design a few days ago with some people saying they hate it and stuff (these people seem to hate the whole comic, actually), comparing the blueycapsules design with rebornica's Vincent and stuff for some reason
and then some blueycapsules fans would come in saying that William's design isn't supposed to be attractive in the first place and i am like excuse me what-
#'you know you fucked up when your William design looks more goofy than Rebornica's Vincent' like-#idk maybe it's just me but that's exactly what makes blueycapsules' design for William stand out - his silliness and pathetic looks#most William designs i have seen are this lanky ass dude#a business man u wouldn't wanna mess with#'your daughter calls me daddy too' vibes and so on#and there's nothing wrong with that i guess but it just gets kinda boring ya know?#having this silly man that looks like the idea/concept of William Afton the beatles murdoc and Spamton all smashed together is refreshing#and i just think that's creative#also- i know i don't have the greatest taste when it comes to fictional men but holy fuck-#r u really telling me that his design is supposed to be ugly? how?? asdkdkabsbsjsm-#i just think it's funny#and since i am in the mood to rant about stuff apparently-#besides the typical 'i hate blueycapsules cause the characters' designs suck' people i keep on seeing#like fine go off i guess#there's also people saying that William is a poorly written villain?? like-#sorry he doesn't have a sob backstory to justify his evil bastard actions#but that doesn't mean he's poorly written#him being an asshole just because is the charm of his character actually#'he's just a phyco where's the flavour to it??' y'all just don't have taste#if you find a villain well written only if they have a sad story to back them up and stuff i don't know what to tell ya#having a good character go apeshit due to what has happened to them can be interesting#but just like above with William's design exemple#it can get quite boring if the same narrative is used over and over again#but i also get this idea that people only want sad backstories for villains so they can justify why they like them? cowards-#like your evil characters regardless of that shit#trauma/sad backstory or not what they did is still morally wrong#their backstory can be used as an explanation sure but it doesn't excuse their actions - they're still villains#so why take away the joy of enjoying and supporting a silly rotten man and his silly rotten actions just because he lacks a sad backstory?#asdkskak- i think i am done#thanks for coming to my Ted Talk
