#i think i just really like music (especially when i cannot understand it due to the language)

Okay, if I had to simplify my gender into one song, it would absolutely have to be Libiamo ne' lieti calici. Like, I am going absolute feral right now. Do you see this vision of mine.
#trans#transgender#lgbt#lgbtq#ftm#mtf#nonbinary#i somewhat flip flop between my favourite pieces of opera but i LOVE how this song can be done#when it's done well i think you should feel almost seduced by BOTH violetta and alfredo's points of view#it is a VERY well-done argument alongside the chorus who affirm and almost seem to whisper alongside you...#...and (at least for me) i feel like i'm almost invited in a circle of people gossiping#i usually listen to pieces in isolation from the rest of the performance which does take the song out of context in a way#i think i just really like music (especially when i cannot understand it due to the language)#i find that people who listen to songs not in any language they speak they will enjoy it in a COMPLETELY different way#when you start understanding the song though you have your own interpretation of it that is often seperate from a natuve speakers#and frankly i LOVE that i am obsessed with it and i think we all need to find songs we don't understand and just LIVE with them#anyway feel free to recommend non-english songs and/or expand with your own song that you would say is gender idk!!!!

Neat little interview with Arai Sumiko.
(Bad MTL below the cut. Especially note already nuanced love talk in the original language further removed by MTL)
── What was the idea for the story of two girls, Mitsuki and Aya?
I've always wanted to draw a story between girls. I also like the story of two people from opposite worlds with gaps, and I think that's where I came up with the idea. I love to draw, and I used to post things like two-page comics with no dialogue on social media from time to time. I thought that if there were no lines, it would be easier for people overseas to spread the word, and even if they didn't understand Japanese, they would enjoy it. One of them is the source of 『気になってる人が男じゃなかった』.
──『気になってる人が男じゃなかった』 received a great response when it was announced, and now Arai's X has more than 1 million followers. Was the announcement on social media also due to the ease of communication overseas that you just mentioned?
I didn't think it would be like this, so I didn't think too much about it (laughs). I was very happy to be able to connect with people from overseas through SNS. There was a time when I lived abroad, so I feel that spending time in a completely different environment has made me who I am today. Perhaps, the number of stories between women in the world is not as large as that of love stories between men and women, or between men, so it may have been suitable for social media.
── Why did you want to depict the relationship between two girls?
I think the relationship between women is very intimate. That feeling when we got really close…… They wear matching clothes, listen to the same music, and spend hours together without talking. It's not like love, it's a love that has always been there. Isn't love over when you break up? I have a bit of a prejudice in me, and I want to draw something that transcends it. If we can be together even if we don't have a relationship title, I think that's love. I'm sorry, it's hard to understand.
── I've always longed for a relationship that can't be named, or a relationship where it's just two people, so I feel like I understand it.
We all have a lonely part and loneliness that we can't share with others. Especially when you're young, everyone has a lot of different feelings. However, I think that if I can create an existence that resonates with such a soft part of my heart, it will last a lifetime.
── How did you come up with the character of Mitsuki, who was thought to be mysterious older brother, but was a cool girl?
It's completely my preference, but I love people who are women but can see the masculineness, so I created the character of Mitsuki from there. What if a sober girl actually has a tattoo? And such? I also wanted to depict her kindness. Mitsuki is unconscious, but she is naturally compassionate.
── Handsome and gentle, isn't it? As a way of depicting sexuality, the feeling that the existence of the person is affirmed as it is, including the fact that she is a woman, is conveyed from the drawing, and it is exciting.
Thank you. I'm happy because I'm particular about the shape of Mitsuki's slightly bony wrist line, fingers, and nails. There are parts of the picture in Volume 1 that make me think, "Wow" when I reread it now, but I did my best to make Mitsuki's expression when she tells Aya that she wants to be friends. From the time of the name, I drew a lot of facial expressions (laughs). I've improved a bit at drawing, so I've been drawing a lot lately, and I think I'm good at it a lot.
── It's a memorable scene where the two become friends at school.
I love the American TV drama "Glee" (a music-comedy-drama about a high school choir where minorities gather), and I grew up watching that show. I was moved by the story of a sparkling person who seems to have everything, but in fact has emotions that cannot be told to others, so I wanted to draw it myself. Aya has that element in it. Aya is feminine on the outside, but she is shy. When it comes to other people, she's the kind of girl with a lot of grit who confronts her with a "huh?"
── In the second volume, the individuality of each of them became more apparent.
Mitsuki hides herself at school, but the way she hides her personality is actually very attractive. It's fun to depict how talking to Aya brings out more and more of her true self at school.
──It's so nice to be the most yourself when you're with the people you love.
Being able to be yourself means having confidence in yourself. By not worrying about what people think, you will be able to see what you care about and the right person for you. Like Mitsuki brought Aya closer. The person who is most saved by being dignified is yourself. That's why I want to value my own individuality, and I draw manga with the hope that I will be able to do so.
── Music is also an important element of this manga. It is colored in two colors, yellow-green and black, which are rare in manga, and when I first read it, I thought it was rock.
Actually, I chose yellow-green 15 minutes before the first episode was posted on social media (laughs). I didn't think it would go viral, and I thought it would be nice to have a rock feel and a slightly dangerous color, so I put it in on a whim. That Last Minute Decision (the last minute decision) may have been a good one.
── NIRVANA and other music are featured in the film, but what is Arai's own musical journey?
When I was little, I loved BECK's album "Guero" the most in the world, and I remember dancing to it at my father's office. That's where my love for rock music started. NIRVANA's music is exceptional, but I also sympathize with frontman Kurt Cobain's feminism and pushing the boundaries of gender. I was an only child, so I spent a lot of time alone, and I moved to a place where I didn't speak the language, so I feel like I was able to cultivate my imagination while filling in the silence with music.
──Even in 『気になってる人が男じゃなかった 』 the music connects the completely different worlds of Mitsuki and Aya and expands them even further.
Let's see. The last scene of Volume 2 is very memorable for me. Aya stops Mitsuki from getting off the pedestrian bridge that can be taken as a stage, but I think it's a friend, and I think it's love. There's also a love for the music that Mitsuki makes.
── "This song connects the world!!" I was also fascinated by the straight line. Is there anything you keep in mind when drawing music?
In my case, I'm completely self-satisfied and just put in the music I like, and I can't say anything admirable, but I think a lot about which songs go well with each scene. There are scenes made from music, and the scene where Aya and Mitsuki hold hands in Volume 2 came to mind when I was listening to The Shins.
──Official playlist But it's also fun to read while actually playing music.
I'm a little embarrassed because I choose it myself (laughs), but I'm happy. I didn't tell anyone, but the official playlist is trying to arrange the songs that Mitsuki and Aya each chose so that they alternate as much as possible. Of course, the flow of music is the most important priority.
──Knowing that changes the way you listen even more! I'm looking forward to seeing what the future holds for them. Thank you very much.

(Is she a Dianna Agron stan? This is the second connection after this earlier in the year. Also I think this Glee thing gives her an honorary Tumblr diploma too.)

do you have any davris headcanons?
i saw this ask the instant it came in and i could not believe my EYES. trust when i tell you ive been typing FURIOUSLY in the meantime
okay. okay headcanons.
-dave has always been a little genderweird and vriska putting makeup on him when she was bored one night unlocked his third eye and now he cant stop putting red shit all over his eyelids
-vriska has also always been genderweird and you can see where im going with this.
-she steals his clothes ALL the time
-he pretends to hate it when she gets her disgusting $5 perfume stink all over said clothes but you know he loves that shit (and she knows it too)
-flaming bisexuals
-once theyve been together for a while they are THE most "i am going to have the longest silent conversation with someone across the room you have ever seen in your life"
-they both think they can read each other like a book but in truth its only about 60-70% accurate
-the inaccuracies are always funny as fuck though and 9 times out of 10 its some entirely off the wall MADNESS due to their upbringings they think is entirely normal. the conversations that directly follow these revelations are legendary amongst the extended crew and every single one thats happened in a public memo has been screenshotted by basically everyone they know
-speaking of which. i dont think they dm for basically anything ever. they either have conversations right in the GC (sometimes in the middle of other conversations, which karkat fucking HATES, especially when they flirt with each other) or they speak in person/over the phone. no in between
-they flirt with each other all the time and its disgusting but its incomprehensible to literally everyone else. vriska tells dave she found some gnarly roadkill and sends coordinates and dave is like "babe stop not in front of everybody"
-she used to send pictures too but that got shut down real quick and now thats really all she dms him for
-i dont think vriska likes it for the same reasons dave does but he did absolutely get her into the weird and wacky world of vulture culture. dave likes the wet specimens the most but vriskas a fan of bones and taxidermy
-speaking of which. this is more vriska/troll-centric but i love the idea of vriska being able to eat bones. dave gets the same schoolboy "oh my god this is so cool" kick out of it every single time
-im well aware that music is a time thing but i genuinely cannot comprehend a world wherein vriska is not a music girlie. this definitely did a lot of the heavy lifting in The Early Days because when youre emotionally constipated sometimes you gotta let a song do the talking FOR you
-vriska 100% introduced dave to crunkcore and he got way more into it than she ever did. he listens to 3oh3 religiously
-dave samples vriska on his tracks all the time because she CANNOT shut the fuck up. he also likes taking pictures of her but even after years together he still kinda keeps those to himself and gets flustered when she finds one
-man i just really love the idea of them being fucking obsessed with each other. they rag on each other ALL the time because thats just how they feel the most comfortable being affectionate but at the end of the day they snuggle up all soft and quiet and just enjoy being with somebody who understands how hard it can be to even allow that to happen in the first place
-they ARE super casually affectionate with each other though, even in group settings. i dont think theyd like grand pda like kissing or saying 'i love you' in public but personal space just doesnt really exist for them. they hang off each other and sling legs over laps all willy nilly
-they also stim on each other. dave likes to play with her hair while hes talking and vriska likes to play with his hands/fingers when shes bored
this post is so LONG i could keep going for days. please always ask me about davris, especially if youve got more specific questions!!!
#homestuck#dave strider#vriska serket#vriska#davris#davevris#we8comic#ironies in the fire#q+a with vel#Anonymous#SORRY I KINDA WENT OFF#please everyone talk to me about davris For Ever

Kokichi, kiibo, miu, kaede and perhaps kaito as well with an s/o that’s like ibuki? Loved ur Mikan one !
TYSM HAD FUN WRITIN FOR IT ! I also did rantaro cuz hehe I like him a lot
Rantaro likes the energy you bring, your style catches his eye almost immediately. Your first conversation was interesting, he found you .. well.. kinda enjoyable to be around. You didn’t think much of the situation you guys were put in at first. The more he spent time talking to you and being around you the more he liked you. He tried to understand you more as time went on, and he would learn that you were a very caring individual. You’d make him do exhausting exercises, which he thought you simply did because it’s what you always do. That’s partially true, but he finds out it’s also to help with his memory and figuring out his talent. He thinks it’s really.. sweet of you to do that for him and go through the effort for him. “I appreciate it, really. But.. it’s okay, yknow?” “Dawww… rantaro!” he feels some protectiveness of you, but that’s normal for him. However, he knows you’re smarter than you look and you certainly pick up on his protectiveness. He takes an interest in your talent, finds it … interesting when he finds out the reason you separated from your old band was due to creative differences .. and he finds out what those creative differences were. He always listens to you when you talk about your old band but he’s glad you don’t regret anything. The guy is secretly clingy, but even moreso upon finding out you’re a little lonely at times because of your separation with your band. You two always talk about being a music duo or something. “Hey maybe you could be the ultimate drummer! That’d be pretty awesome wouldnt it?!” “Yeah… heh.. would be a dream.” he to this day, is still in awe by how you can be so energetic at the most ungodly hours. “Good nom nom noming rantaro!!” “Good morning sweets…” he is one of the few people that recognizes your excellent hearing, as well as your many other useful talents and genuinely see it as useful outside of class trials. He likes hearing you talk about songs to write for and always tries to help.
Kaede loves your energy! You both become fast friends from the moment you meet, and hey you’re both into music! Different kinds, but still! Having a mutual interest is always good and makes for good conversation! You’re easy to talk to so you talk a lot! She spends a lot of her time with you since your energetic nature rubs off on her and she loves it! She so much more optimistic (somehow) with you around. “Good nom nom noming kaede!” “Ahh… good morning y/n..!” she likes to learn more about you, and she’s surprised to find you used to be a part of a band that you left, due to creative differences. Eventually she’d understand why, and just kinda laughs about it. Makes sense. But she’s glad you don’t regret anything within being in that group, but she understands the feeling of being alone. After all, not many shared her love for the piano. She probably offers working together on something for music but you both have very… different ideas. As a result she tries to help you when you’re coming up with new songs and lyrics. She likes your randomness and finds it to be amusing. “Hey kaede! Lemme bite ya!” “H-hey! Cmon!” she often talks to you about random things, but she truly cannot keep up with your crazy routine in the morning, she cannot understand how in the world your so full of energy so early and how you can do so much running and other forms of crazy exercise.
Miu is a bit rude to you for awhile, for a long time it’s just natural for her since you don’t seem to care at all and even ignore it and continue on. However, that’s what makes the two of you genuinely friends. Especially when you go out her way to interact with her more. She finds your energetic nature to be exhausting and she will go out her way to tell you that much. She will never participate in any crazy routine you have, but she may make an invention for you to do it while your sleeping. She will try to flirt with you, but when you flirt back she kinda crumbles. “Heh! looking good hot stuff!” “D’aww thanks babe! You’re smokin hot today!” “H-huhhhh! I-I mean! Of course I am!!” She absolutely loves your music by the way, she will willingly go to any of your concerts, and when you tell her you used to be a part of a band but left due to creative differences, she’s flabbergasted. “The fuck?! You’re way better than those bitches! Don’t even think about them!” you may find she’s also rather clingy in her own roundabout way. Even if you’re energetic at the most ungodly of hours. “Good mongrel miu!” “The fuck does that even mean?!” she acts like she cannot stand your random nature at times, but you understand her well enough to know that’s not accurate. “Heyyyy! Did you know that if you cross your eyes like this, it gives you double vision!” “As per usual you say the stupidest shit!” “Hey! Lemme bite ya!” “W-whaaa!!! S-save the kinky shit for the bedroom! U-unless you’re into exhibitionism… I don’t mind..”
Kokichi definitely likes you pretty quick, since you’re pretty easy to trust. He also finds it easy to tease you since he can trick you pretty easily. Or that’s what he thought for awhile, till he figured out you went along with a lot of his tricks simply because you wanted to try shit out. Probably because you knew you’d be fine, any normal person would be exhausted by the stuff he makes you do but for you it’s no problem! Color him surprised! Your energy makes you more physically capable! He teases you a bit, mainly for your music, but he won’t turn your loneliness and what happened with your band a joke, he just kinda jokes about how you’ll never be alone with him around, which isn’t really a lie. Although he may act annoyed by your energy at times, he’s just joking and actually likes your nature, it makes you not boring after all! You remind him of kaito but like… not annoying! Though he will admit he may get a little annoyed if you get off topic during a class trial lol. Your randomness for the most part is liked by him though. It just gives him an opportunity to be just as random. “Goooooood moooorning my dear!” “Good mongrel kokichi!” “WAAAA! WHY DONT I GET A CUTE PETNAME!! YOURE SO MEAN!!” “Hey!!! You’re actin totally crazy again! Those are fake tears!! Right???!” “D’aww how boring! You caught me..”
Kaito and you are unsurprisingly a good match and get along almost instantaneously. He loves your energy and he’s one of the few people that can match it at any time of the day! You two will work out and train together and hype eachother up constantly. Especially in the mornings or late at night since nobody else really does it with you two. Well other than maki! He may not LOVE your music like crazy but he’s supportive of it and tells you how awesome it is, and he helps you with your loneliness as well. He hates the idea of you feeling alone since he thinks you’re amazing! He also finds you’re extremely useful when it counts. You’re both your best selves when with one another. He’s always eager to see you and just doesn’t feel his best without you. “Good morning my dear!” “Good nom nom noming my beloved!” You are just that couple everyone knows about (and everyone’s annoyed by.) He likes how random you are and finds it amusing! For the most part, anyway. “Hey! Praise me praise me! I helped ya!” “Of course hun! You did great! You’re amazing!!” “Haha great! Now lemme bite ya!” “H-hey!!!” there’s been a couple times you’ve barged into his dorm, whether because he forgot to lock it or you asked him to unlock it. You come in at late hours just to bother him, or to spend some time with him. He truly doesn’t mind. He appreciates those rare times where you’re serious, it shows you care enough to be that way with him because you’re close.
Kiibo finds your energy to be quite different and on another level. As a robot he’s one of the few who can match up to your pace and he will admit for a human you’re abnormally energetic. He doesn’t mind it though, it’s part of the reason he was so interested in you to begin with. He finds that you’re pleasant to be around, so often he exercises with you when nobody else will, and likes listening to you talk about random things. He tries to remember specific things you prefer to talk about but honestly the stuff you talk about is always so random and they’re all unrelated to one another, it’s hard to keep up. However he will remember certain phrases you say, and may repeat them. “Good mongrel kiibo!” “Good nom nom noming y/n!” honestly to everyone else, it’s hard to tell if he’s saying it to appease you or if he doesn’t know the shit you say sometimes is absolute nonsense. At times, he tries to help you stay focused when it’s important, but for the most part likes your attitude. “Meoowwww!””y/n!! Please focus!” he’s pretty understanding of your situation with your old band as well, especially after he listens to your music, he doesn’t find it unpleasant but it definitely sounds… different. “Well.. whenever you get lonely, just know you always have me. I’ll always be by your side, I promise.” “D’aww! Thanks keebs! You’re the sweetest!”

Today (November 23rd) is good brothers day in Japan. (With the focus being on the elder brother here)
I know this blog focuses more on PLA Ingo and his adventures in Hisui with his adopted niece/daughter but I really would love to hear some of your favorite headcanons of Ingo and Emmet.
I also think Emmet would be extra friendly today and maybe even getting him his favorite kind of candy. (while I believe they have their times of rivalry and pranks and other sibling stuff they always look out for each other and let the other know how much they care, especially after PLA.)
Oh!! Thanks for letting me know Anon, I didn’t know this!! And no worries, yes, while this is a PLA blog, I love Emmet just as much ^^
And I love your view of Ingo and Emmet’s sibling dynamic; I see it that way too!! I definitely see Emmet doing that for Ingo and yes, especially after PLA ;~;
And now, some headcanons below!! Several are popular ones within the fandom that I’ve latched onto, but some are ones I’ve grown to think for myself too ^^ (featuring Elesa too!)
—————————————
The twins’ hair has always been grey; it’s genetics.
Ingo’s first Pokémon was his Litwick, and Emmet’s was his tynamo - they found them both when they were young, and the Pokémon always followed them around.
Ingo is slightly taller than Emmet, but only by a couple inches. Post-Hisui, Ingo’s slouch gave Emmet the title of taller twin. Emmet holds it over Ingo’s head proudly until Ingo stands up straight again.
Emmet is very knowledgeable when it comes to Pokémon breeding, from his experience with breeding joltik. From time to time he likes to browse forums about the subject and help people with questions they might have, when it doesn’t seem like anyone else will give them an answer.
Ingo and Emmet love Roxie’s music, and they play it sometimes on the battle subway.
Emmet is partial to electric-type pokemon while Ingo is partial to fire-type pokemon. People speculate that it’s due to Unova’s legendary dragons, but really it’s tied to Emmet’s love of electric trains, and Ingo’s appreciation for steam-powered locomotives.
Ingo is the night owl, prone to getting up and going to bed later. Emmet is the early bird, prone to getting up and going to sleep earlier.
Though living in an apartment complex with neighbors who are very loud and not the most polite, sometimes neither sleep schedule is as smooth and restful as they’d like.
Emmet actually likes puns, just like Ingo - his vocabulary is as stuffed with train terms as his brother’s is. He just finds Elesa’s jokes to be low hanging fruit. She knows this full well, and intentionally keeps telling them. Ingo unironically enjoys them.
The twins met Elesa in grade school when she transferred out of homeschool/private school. Elesa met Emmet first, who then quickly introduced her to Ingo. The twins had transferred to the school themselves a year before and still didn’t have many friends, so they wanted to make Elesa feel welcome when they saw she was struggling with loneliness herself.
Elesa became very popular in highschool due to her good looks and attractive personality (and her family’s wealth became public knowledge); it did not influence her at all though. She did not fall for the fake friends that tried to attach themselves to her, and Ingo and Emmet remained as two of her only real friends through high school (Skyla and Burgh became the other two)
In terms of flavor, Ingo prefers sweet things while Emmet prefers bitter things.
Because of this, Emmet is a bit more lean than Ingo (Post-Hisui, it is more noticeable when Ingo comes back with a bit of a dad bod).
Emmet pokes fun at Ingo for his sweet tooth, saying he doesn’t ‘understand his inferior tastes’ (and Ingo fires right back), but both will immediately side with the other and gang up against Elesa when it comes to her preferred tastes - she LOVES intensely spicy dishes, which the twins cannot handle.
Ingo and Emmet occasionally help Elesa with her model work - their collaborations always brings extra publicity for both parties. Emmet unabashedly loves doing it, though Ingo’s always a little more flustered with all the attention.
Ingo and Emmet love watching horror movies, even if it still freaks them out.
The twins keep candy and gear station pins in their coat pockets to hand to children in the station.
In multi-battles, Ingo always uses his Pokémon to play defensive while Emmet always pushes offensive. (Just like how they’re meant to be utilized in Pokémon Masters EX)
#submas#happy good brothers day Ingo and Emmet#the headcanon list is MUCH longer than I thought#so I added a ‘keep reading’ haha#happy good brothers day to Ingo and Emmet

Hi I'm the anon who sent the "rambling" ask about Nagito from like 2 weeks ago. I forgot to check for a response lol.
I wanted to elaborate on what I said about Nagito's backstory bc it was vague and I have Thoughts.
I actually don't think his casual attitude towards his past makes it harder to take seriously (if anything I think that adds to the tragedy of it). I was mostly just referring to the specific things that happen. One of my gripes about DR is that I feel like some characters have unnecessarily dark/tragic backstorys. Either bc I feel like they don't really need a dark past at all (eg Akane), or it's excessive to the point of being ridiculous.
I know Nagito's backstory is supposed to unbelievable to show how extreme his luck is, and that DR as a whole isn't exactly grounded in reality, but I feel like it would hit harder if it was just a little more believable.
Like, maybe his parents die in a car crash instead of a plane crash (or just make it a normal plane crash without the convoluted "the plane gets hijacked but then the hijackers get hit by a meteor but that also kills his parents"). The cancer is fine, but the dementia is overkill. Then there's the kidnapping thing which like. I find it hard to believe that the killer would just let him go after not getting what they wanted. It'd make more sense for him to have escaped on his own. Or we could just get rid of that entirely. If you want to drive home the fact that he has no family, just have him end up in some shitty orphanage or something.
Which brings me to my next point. It's implied that Nagito just lived alone after his parents died. But I find it hard to believe that an elementary school-aged kid could live by himself and have full control over his own finances. It'd make more sense if he ended up in some kind of foster care (or maybe just on the streets). I also think him being an orphan who doesn't get adopted/gets bounced around between foster homes would be fitting with his perceived worthlessness and desire to be loved, perhaps even more so than him being totally isolated.
Ok I think I covered everything (as far as canon events go at least). Sorry this turned into an essay lol.
Oh hello anon! Thank you for clarifying, I was a little perplexed as to how I should’ve responded to your ask. I don’t have much to really say about the events themselves, but I’ll try to add my two cents.
I do agree that it makes it sadder how casual he talks about it, I think I was more talking in behalf of the people that didn’t rethink his words when he claimed he was lying because of how unserious it felt with the music playing behind it. It’s so normal for him to experience these things that his layer back attitude is very unnerving for the normal person, which is utterly tragic.
I do see what you mean about not need every character to have some tragic messed up backstory, especially when it has no actual impact in the story itself. It’s good to expand a character through side content, but it gets too much. I think it works in favor for the sdr2 cast considering it shows that all of them have the potential to turn to despair due to their past experiences, and how Hope’s Peak doesn’t actually care for the students themselves and their own feelings towards their talents, but canon kicks itself in the crotch by never expanding more with these backstories in the actual storyline and how dr3 was handled ughh.
When it come to Komaeda’s backstory however, I do think it works for him when it comes to the absurdist writing because his entire existence is drenched in the absurdism danganronpa is known for. It would probably hit harder if Komaeda was more realistic and I understand that, but ultimately that’s not what Komaeda is. He is purposefully hard to relate to and hard to believe, only with real effort you can find yourself in him, and he even rejects that effort itself. Komaeda cannot survive in a series that isn’t Danganronpa because he is Danganronpa, a clunky mess that somehow works in its accidental genius.
I sound absurd myself, but when it comes to Komaeda you can only rely on your own suspense of disbelief to sympathize with him. Sorry for being a bummer to your roll because your criticisms are not at all wrong, I just personally don’t find it to be a problem myself.
About the killer and orphan thing, I think I could try to give some insight on them? Here’s one thing you forgot: he’s canonically implied to be a rich kid. Even if he isn’t thrown into situations like being on the streets or the foster care system, he still had other family members to be dropped onto, his status would still give him privileges like a nanny to watch over him, etc.
The killer, while I did find strange that he decided not to kill the rich kid after all, he definitely did target him because he was from a wealthy family. So what could that mean? Well obviously we could go for the heartbreaking answer of nobody in the extended family wanted to help him because of his problematic luck or annoyance of his existence, we could go for another that none of them were alive to actually get anything out of him since it took place in middle school, and he did say that his luck took direct action against him right before he was eventually taken into Hope’s Peak academy because of his lack of family left. It depends on when during middle school this happened.
So I guess there wasn’t any real consequence to leaving this lonely wealthy child on his own since there’s nothing nobody could actually do to lead back to them or would care enough to do anything. Upsetting I know, the unfortunate irony of being thrown away like trash for Komaeda is… well anyway I think the point of this event was to drive in Komaeda’s feeling of being unwanted, even by the worst of the worst of society, at least that’s what I think of it.
The only thing I question is how Komaeda himself personally describes his good fortune after what happened to his parents. What would a kid in elementary really need immense wealth and freedom for??? I find myself perplexed by his choice of words because it implies a lot. I know we could go the route of “his parents were terrible” when it comes to the freedom part, but I think there’s a better answer to this.
This is an example of Komaeda justifying what happened to fit a narrative he’s formed because of, most likely, what society/the people around him has fed him and what he’s chosen to believe. I’ve already mentioned this before, but his mentality reflects specific societal beliefs to an exaggerated point because his life is exaggerated. Where any of these came from to make Komaeda think this: who freaking knows.
Sorry if this isn’t exactly what you were expecting, and I wish I could add more. I hope this was satisfying enough.

Kim Taehyung (BTS V) 2023 - 2024 Love Reading
From 2023 - 2024, there will continue to be news about Taehyung's love life like more photos of him and Jennie will come out or people finding out they attended the same events. Their relationship isn't one that's super serious. It's more of a playful type of relationship and it's one that's more or less open. They don't think too much about the far future when they are together. In a way, I see this relationship as more of a PR stunt now. Well it did become known to the public in a way that they both didn't want to be known, they've both chosen to use this to gain attention. I don't sense much hate from people generally (besides some of their more intense fans that cannot take them dating anyone and some are still in denial).
I don't really see these two reaching the point of marriage. If they do end up marrying each other, there are more chances of them separating or divorcing. They will reach a breaking point around mid 2024 or late 2024 for their relationship; that is a time where it's more likely that they will break up. Tensions will arise more in 2024 from both ends as both have issues with their careers (that may not be known to the world). It could be problems with coworkers/staff/bosses or just overall feeling that their career isn't going the way they want it or just not advancing like their peers/others around them. Generally during this period both of them face obstacles/challenges in their careers, which could be unexpected setbacks like injuries, cancellation of events due to circumstances that are out of their control, or difficulty working with other staff/teams due to possibly miscommunication etc.
Jennie's mental health is rather frail these days and will continue to be on the weaker side throughout 2023 and 2024. She needs a lot of support and encouragement. She can exude more negativity than usual when interacting with others, like she can complain more or talk about the same issues over and over again. This can cause friends/others to feel tired of her, especially when they feel like Jennie has more going on than them in life. Jennie will need Taehyung to be there to support her, which is difficult given his career and his personality. He is not the most patient/attentive partner and isn't the type to hand hold someone. While he may listen to her frustrations/complaints a few times, he will shut her down if she continues to complain or "whine" or say the same things over and over again. When that happens, Jennie will feel very isolated and feel that he doesn't understand her. She may reach out to other guy friends for support or to cause Taehyung to get jealous/give more attention on her. This will likely not do much for Taehyung and he will instead find that she is behaving immaturely. When Taehyng is unable to give the emotional support she needs/attention that she seeks, their relationship will sour.
Taehyung's focus these days is not on love but on his career. While he will continue to go on dates with Jennie, he sees being with Jennie as advantageous for his career. It is not to say that he is simply dating her for clout, but he sees benefits to dating her. Jennie knows a lot of people and has connected Taehyung to her circle of friends. Taehyung is hoping to use these new connections to advance in his career. You will see that their friend circles have become intertwined through social media posts etc. Taehyung's ultimate goal is to get his foot in the door for acting. He is very envious of his actor friends and really wants to get into acting. He's not that interested in his music career anymore. To be frank he has always seen music as a stepping stone to get into acting. Unfortunately for the next few years, his chances in acting are on the lower side and if he does score an acting gig, he will struggle with performing the role well. The script for what he's cast in is also not ideal.
Given that Taehyung's focus is on his career, he will likely not be able to give Jennie the attention and time that she wants in a relationship. Taehyung prefers more group dates than one-on-one dates like dates where his friends and her friends are also there. Jennie prefers more one-on-one dates. She really needs a lot of care and attention in a relationship. She will likely compare Taehyung with her exes like her exes did this for her on her birthday so how come Taehyung didn't do this or that etc. Or how come Taehyung did this for his ex and then didn't do the same or even more for Jennie? Over time she will feel like he is not putting in the effort in the relationship nor is he spoiling her in the relationship. Jennie likes to feel like a queen/princess in a relationship, which Taehyung is unlikely to give to her. Taehyung, as said before, isn't really the caring/super attentive type in a relationship. He prefers having someone that cares for him, supports him, but also doesn't control him and is more independent.
Jennie is quite dependent and clingy in a relationship. She wants texts to be answered immediately. She wants daily calls/Face time. She wants to know what he's up to in the moment etc. Taehyung isn't the type to respond to texts so fast or want to report to someone. He's more carefree and hates to feel like he's on a leash/tied down.
Both of them are unlikely to change or to try to work their differences out for the relationship to work in the long run. Right now is a honeymoon phase, but later they will realize that they are not compatible in a relationship. The physical attraction is there but emotionally/mentally there's a big gap between them.

DATING KIM NAMJOON PT. 1:
⚫️summary; what I think dating Nam-Joon is like based off my initial thoughts on this gorgeous man & just how I believe he’s gonna be in my Fame DR (yes reality shifters are welcome here. gang gang.)
⚠️warnings; fluff, Joonie being a cutie, teef rotting FLUFF with Joonie, Kim Nam-Joon, Nam-Joon, implied smut, some swearing, Nam-Joonah, etc. 18+ so gtfo if you’re not. k thx bye.
•
•
•
-being best friends with the Bangtan boys.
-being like the little sister to them especially because they love to tease you about yours and Joonie’s relationship.
-“Ahh! Y/n and NamJoon! Make him and Appa Y/n! NamJoon, marry her. NamJoon, aren’t you soooo lucky? She’s perfect for you ah? Y/n isn’t he just so handsome? Wow. You scored the big guy.” -Mostly Jin and Hobi but also Jungkook.
-Jungkook loving that you’re younger than him so that makes you the official maknae of the group (because since you got the PIPES, they let you sing vocals on some tracks with them & welp, they made you an honorary Bangtan Member).
-V being like the male version of you so you both consider each other brother and sister.
-being a maknae & all the hyungs being over protective of you especially because they see you as their “little sister”.
-being Jimin’s go to pillow because he loves seeing NamJoon jealous.
-You knowing Korean but not saying anything until you start scaring the boys with full on convos in Korean;
-“야, 우리 오늘 뭐해? (ya, uli oneul mwohae?/hey, what are we doing today?)” -Y/n
-“도대체 한국어를 어떻게 알아요? (dodaeche hangug-eoleul eotteohge al-ayo?/how the hell do you know korean?)” -Hobi
-“마법? 어떻게 생각해 바보. (mabeob? eotteohge saeng-gaghae babo./magic? what do you think fool?)” -Y/n
-the Bangtan boys being so fascinated with how you are so similar to Joonie but also so different from him.
-“V was making fun of me today, he said you make me more confident and some how more clumsy.” -Joonie
-“He’s not wrong. You broke a vase when I said hi last week. Then? You went to a photoshoot and killed it. I’d like to take credit for the last part… Not the vase though.” -Y/n
-Driving everywhere because Joonie CANNOT be trusted with a driver’s license.
-Calling Namjoon; Appa, Joonie, Nam-Joonah, Namu, RM, RapMoni, Daddy Mon, etc.
-Namjoon calling you; his Baby, Flower, Darling, Sweetheart, Y/n/n, Babygirl, Princess, etc.
-S I Z E K I N K !
-D A D D Y K I N K !
-You, speaking fluent Korean, sometimes still mess up & he just says; “you’re doing great baby, keep going.”
-LIKE SIR. UNALIVE ME RIGHT NOW!
-T H I G H K I N K !!!
-you working out with Joonie but not being able to keep up because this fool likes to be FIT & you just wanna be healthy, not a muscle builder.
-Art Museum Dates. 🥺
-featuring in some BTS & RM songs.
-him writing songs/raps about you & then performing them but before he starts he says; “This one is for My Girl, who’s stood by me at my worst, or what I believe is my worst but she helps me understand is just the lower moments in life that she makes brighter by being at my side.”
-being THE BEST of friends with the Bangtan boys & them always mimicking little habits you have.
-painting Joonie’s nails.
-dyeing your hair & using the remainder on Joonie, so you end up matching.
-THE BEST CUDDLES EVER.
-traveling everywhere where there’s good museums or thick luscious forests so you & Joon can get away from the crazy reality you both live.
-due to you having your own music career, you write songs about Joon which the boys mess with you about.
-“Ahhhh, look at this single, 2017?! THIS WAS BEFORE YOU STARTED DATING! NAMJOONAH LISTEN! SHE WAS ALREADY SMITTEN!” -Jin
-“Jin NO! SHUT IT OFF!” -Y/n chasing Jin with a weapon (not really a weapon more like a big add pillow that would knock him on his ass).
-i really, HEAVILY, WHOLEHEARTEDLY believe Joonie would have a kink about seeing you in his clothes so when you’re usually alone you wear biker shorts & a big sweater of his that fits you damn near like a dress & he is just flustered the whole time.
-“You know? I kind of like the feeling of not having to wear anything under here.” -Y/n teasing Namjoon.
-“That’s enough. Go to my room. I’ll be there in 10.” -Joon whispering in Y/n’s ear.
-B E S T S E X E V E R.
-passionate sex where he admired every inch of your body simply because he’s claimed it as his & no one can make him feel what you can & vice versa.
-the boys teasing you about your size;
-“Namjoonah, are you sure you’re being careful with her, she’s tiny. Y/N! COME! Stand right here. Namjoonah you next to her.” -Jin being the hyung he is.
-“Jinhyung please stop. I KNOW she’s tiny. Bu-” -Jin lifts his finger automatically hushing Joon.
-“JIMINIE! Assume your position.” He shouts & Jimin is not between you & Joon.
-“Ahhh yes. Just as I suspected. Jimin is taller. Wow. How have you not broken her Namjoonssi?” -Jin, with a very serious look on his face.
-“Are we done now? I may me tiny… But I will kick your ass…” -Y/N as she glared at the boys.
-they all burst into laughter because of how funny she looks, arms crossed, furrowed eyebrows and all.
-dating Namjoon is just so pure & full of love yet so passionate & dirty at times.
-LIKE WHEN I TELL YOU THIS MAN IS SO FINE. SO SCRUM-DILLY-ICIOUS!! 🥺🔫
-he is so sweet & gentle at times but when he’s had a tough day or us upset about something he will come in through the front door, straight face & all, ready to either tear you apart or devour you, or both.
-buys you a matching bonsai to his so you can both have them be a couple. 🥺
-dies a little when he sees you performing because he is just so fucking proud of you but also when he sees you in the crowd of his shows with the boys. he is so happy to see you standing with the other millions of people he loves with his entire heart. (obvi he loves you most but you know) he claims it makes him feel whole. the way you feel when you see HIM at your shows.
-in conclusion dating Kim Namjoon is literally a motherfucking gift, a blessing, a fucking miracle that you were touched to receive because he is just everything you ever wished for & so much more. it’s an everlasting love that you will tell your kids, grandkids & GREAT grandkids about.

-MORE TO COME! HOPE YOU ENJOYED! 🫶🏼

Avatar the Last Airbender Live Action Episode 1
Oh, damn the bending is awesome. Like I can see why people say that the earth bending still needs a little work but it's still good though. And I appreciate that when the fire hits you your clothes are singed.
Shit. We're burning people alive now. Okay. Wasn't expecting that.
The music though. Such nostalgia. Makes me tear up a bit.
They made Aang fly like Zaheer. You know what? I'm not angry about that, I always wondered why Aang never tried it.
Gordon embodies Aang. They are the same person, and you cannot change my mind.
"Monks don't trust me to feed the baby bison and they want me to save the world." "I'm scared of my power! I'm scared of being alone." He is just a boy and has no idea about the world.
Okay seriously the writers showing the battle between the Airbenders and Firebenders is pretty fucking cool. Especially seeing a bit of Sozin vs Gyatso.
"Finally." Maybe it's just me but the way Dallas said that was perfect. That was Zuko. All the way. That ponytail isn't easy to pull off and somehow it works.
"Sky bison. Sky bison. Sky. Bison."
"Repeating it doesn't help."
I admit that made me chuckle.
I have watched the animated series again and again and again. However, I still never get over the fact that a 12-year-old boy was thrown into a completely different world from the one he was used to, one that he has to immediately save from due to war when he wasn't ready to even face the fact that he's the Avatar.
"When the world needed the Avatar the most he vanished because he's a coward." That's not fair, Sokka. Don't be so harsh he's just a kid.
"Lord of uh Snow and Ice." lol. That's definitely Sokka.
God the bending is just perfect. Yes, the dialogue needs work and the acting is sub-par but I love the writing and the visuals. I enjoy the cheesy one-liners. I think every actor does great at portraying their character, especially Dallas. He's a perfect Zuko. It bothers me a little bit that they didn't have Aang waterbend in this episode while in the Avatar State.
I like that they changed that it was Gyatso who was able to calm him down rather than Katara like in the show. Nice little change there.
Okay, I really don't understand the hate here. And I'm seeing people all over Tiktok suddenly love the live-action movie more? God, that movie sucked, it always did. I definitely prefer the series over that ridiculous adaptation.

Am I a bad person if I really want to listen to Taylor today...not excusing her but I miss her music so much
anon bestie. first, *hugs*. second, i do not know how to stress, plead, implore enough with you all that loving music is not a moral or immoral action. yes, of course there are particular artists i myself would never engage with (and that is due to extremes), and there are artists i just don't like for whatever reason and that's subjective. on the "i would never engage with ___" side, i can say that for myself, confidently understand why, yet recognize i still don't have the right to tell others to follow suit. people have different boundaries, different tastes, and different ways of going about separating their enjoyment from other issues.
i know there's sincere concern about supporting "problematic" artists, particularly financially, and i do think that's an important conversation to have, especially when we're discussing people actively doing harm to others or platforming hate speech. taylor is not an abuser, taylor has not been trumpeting racist or homophobic etc rhetoric. i also realize the issue of complicity has come into play here because of that man, and that's why there's so much anger and hurt and disappointment right now, but ask yourself: does that man, who is not in any way, shape, or form a part of any of her music, have the power to steal that from you? do you feel like you have to suffer the loss of her music, which is clearly valuable to you, over one dirty rag of a man? i've been upset and critical too, but also feel like there's a call for perspective here. taylor alison swift is not causing the world's ills. tbh that man has no significant power or influence even compared to, like, a local politician. bigotry should be confronted and called out. at the same time, this is a microcosm of a conversation, and that doesn't mean it's not important to have it, and that doesn't mean people aren't absolutely valid in their criticism or hurt, what it means is that it is not impacting society as a whole. we get very caught up in fury over small things, especially when it's connected to something we are invested in, because it feels simpler to fix or righteous in some way or like the onus is on us to definitively prove we're upstanding people who don't condone harmful things, and that's fine, but at what point does it become futile? at what point are we just screaming into the void and self-recriminating for approval?
part of what's making this harder is we've connected taylor's music to her very personally, and she has fostered that herself, but i think now is the time to change that a bit. detach it from her however you can and think about what it means to you. you singularly not listening to her on streaming is pennies she won't ever notice are gone, it is causing her zero consequence whatsoever, but it sounds like it's hurting you. that, to me, isn't fair. you're suffering for her mistakes? or because that dude is a dirtbag? you do not have to punish yourself and crawl on your knees for forgiveness because you'd like to play my tears ricochet every once in a while. how exactly is the moral burden on us, as listeners, when we aren't condoning any -isms, we just want to hear songs we love?
i sound hyperbolic here but i'm really serious, it's concerning me that we're tying individual morality - am i a bad person inherently? (bad people don't tend to ask this question because they don't care). does listening to this artist whose work i enjoy taint me in some way because they've done things i disagree with? - to enjoyment of art. it's frighteningly conservative to think that you and your character should be called into question because you love something that isn't causing any outside harm. engagement with art cannot make you a bad person! it's (if you've seen the good place) chidi and his almond milk. we're damning ourselves for miniscule actions and so trapped in the anxiety of that it causes far more important things to slip by. what matters is what we do, how we engage with others, how we take action in the world.
the fact that you're worried about this, which means you've been aware and empathetic during this time, proves you care and are not a "bad" person. i haven't been listening to her and it's not because i think that's giving me moral high ground (it isn't), it's because i am very sensitive and don't want any of that music emotionally tied to what's been going on because i do actually want to go back to it someday, it's too cherished and too intrinsically part of me not to, and at the moment distance itself is healing. i also don't believe her music being such an aspect of my heart says anything about my moral fiber, you know? if i suddenly wanted to listen to red tomorrow, i'd give myself permission to do so knowing it is no measurement of my intellect or my moral integrity, and we've got to stop acting like art can make you good or evil.
sorry this became a very long soap box essay! but i'm worried at how much of this specific idea, of someone so far removed from us making a bad choice reflecting on you and making you personally responsible or irredeemable for that, is being perpetuated. listening to an artist because they make you happy or bring you comfort is not having a measurable impact on human rights or global crises, and it just feels super unfair that we're burdening and judging each other with this idea that enjoyment or passion for something harmless makes you fundamentally bad. the world is hard enough. i promise you that it's okay to allow yourself joy.
#we're getting dangerously close to like the social justice version of book burnings and the hays code and that worries me#anonymous#letterbox#fandom discourse#thrown out speeches

Akimeno for the ship game
Really gonna try to say something about them that isn't just AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH
Ship It
What made you ship it? This is kind of a hard question to answer, because I'm not fully sure. I always liked Himeno, and I did feel very sad about how obviously she wanted Aki to quit. And her devotion toward him tugged at something primal within me. But I was also in kind of a weird place when I first became aware of the manga and went, "Oh, I should check this out," so I think back then it was really more of...an appreciation for her character and the thematic elements of the ship rather than something I Went Feral Over For Personal Reasons? Honestly, I think it was the episode 8 ED (aka MAPPA's Grief AMV) that made me go from "I appreciate this on a narrative level" to "Oh, this is The Ship Ever, actually." (Fun fact, I did an overly-detailed narrative and musical analysis on said ED after it aired just. For fun. To get the Thoughts™ out of my brain.) Genuinely there are not enough words to describe how thoroughly this sequence fucked me up.
What are your favorite things about the ship?
YOU EXPECT ME TO TALK ABOUT THIS AT REASONABLE LENGTH??? UGH OKAY, FINE, I'LL TRY, I GUESS. I love how comfortable they are around each other and how they can be in each other's personal space and it's not a huge deal. I love how DEEPLY they care, even if it's to the point of not always being completely healthy. I love how, even though they both have so much respective issues and there are...uh...as-yet-unexplained-in-the-anime Story Reasons for Aki acting in...certain ways...they STILL managed to build this incredibly close and touching relationship. Genuinely everything in the world they live in was kind of conspiring against them in terms of letting them get to a place of mutual emotional attachment, but they got to that place anyway. And it's SO clear that they care SO MUCH: Aki gets to GRIEVE when she dies because she MATTERS; Himeno tries SO HARD to act cavalier about everything, but she CANNOT be cavalier about him, it's impossible, she doesn't even TRY to be; Aki gets mad/petty/vindictive on multiple occasions over the fact that people have hurt her, and Himeno gets borderline-unhinged about the idea of him being in danger. But ultimately, above all, the thing that I really love about them is that, even if there are a lot of things that might not get fully communicated, they still understand each other. And that's, I think, the most important thing to me regarding a ship.
Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship? I mean...really the unpopular opinion is just that I ship this in the first place, lmao. (Wow, me shipping something that's NOT the fan-preferred ship, what a surprise.) Um...I guess the fact that I believe the romantic feelings were mutual? There are a lot of things I could point to for this (especially some of the anime-specific animation choices), but I'll stick to the biggest reason (because this is already long enough) which is that, overall, this piece of media is a very tragic story. One laced with hope, yes, but still a tragedy in many ways. And, as someone who used to be a stage actor, having to inhabit various fictional characters day after day, I tend to look at fiction from the angle of, "What interpretation choice makes the theme/genre stronger?" So, what's the bigger tragedy: Two people, for all their faults, are in love-could have had time together and been on the same page and carved out some small pocket of happiness, however brief-but one of them is physically prevented by story elements from ever realizing or acting on it? That the feelings WERE there and it COULD have worked but it never got there due to circumstances COMPLETELY outside anyone's control? Or "girl likes best friend who doesn't like her back." Some people may think that straight-up unrequited love is more tragic, but I think it's infinitely more sad when the love is mutual but forced to go unrealized.

i finally pushed through my fears and watched the first 2 episodes of Ahsoka... I have thoughts™️
LA Ahsoka is still quite flat for me, sadly. Ahsoka use to be my absolute favorite character, and now I barely recognize anything about her that I use to adore. There's small, small bits and pieces here and there, but she feels so boring and emotionless at times. Is there a reason for this? I honestly cannot think of one, especially not after how quippy and sweet she was in Rebels. Not to mention, physically she just defaults to standing with her arms crossed and looking judgey. I'm hoping this can be expanded upon and maybe show us why she's now so different, but I'm nervous that there wont be any, since most of the Mando related shows & such lately has just been so devoid of any actual interesting character work. I'm not asking for much when I say I want character work, I just want her to feel like a character again, if that makes sense.
2. The music was quite good! Nothing wowed me, but I liked it!
3. Another thing that breaks my heart is just how bad Hera looks. Her eyes take me out of nearly every scene she's in. MEW is doing a decent job at Hera, but with how cakey her makeup is mixed with the contacts and rubbery lekku, it's just a bit jarring and depressing.
4. I'm also just not a fan of the makeup/prosthetics for MEW or Dawson, I honestly can't believe this is the best they could do.
5. Sabine being Ahsoka's Padawan is... is just so odd to me. Maybe as it goes on it'll make more sense and they'll tell us why Ahsoka started training her in the first place, but it's not entirely my jam. It doesn't help that I can barely remember a single line of dialogue between them in Rebels, so it feels even more out of place.
6. biggest nitpick in the world but they perfected the visual look of lightsabers in the sequels, I honestly don't understand why they decided to regress here. like legit, the blade doesn't have much energy to it. I know it's such a small thing but like, I just rewatched the sequels and man oh man did those blades look glorious.
7. My last thought because my heart can't take this and I really hate being negative, but thankfully this is like, a half positive: I adore Baylon & Shin and would absolutely read a book about them. No joke, I'm way more interested in them than Ahsoka & the gang, which makes me horrifically depressed, but at least I get some more edgy/mysterious force users to obsess over (as long as they turn out to be interesting in the end, but we only have 8 episodes, which is ALWAYS a perfect amount of time for characters to grow and develop) and they will probably be the main reason I continue to watch, just due to how rad they are.
I truly wish I didn't feel so negative about these first 2 episodes, especially since Ahsoka & Hera (and Rebels) has been so precious to me for years. it just feels so blank with the returning gang. I dunno, man. maybe I'll rewatch the episodes soon and I'll probably try and stay up to date, but I'm more nervous then anything...

What exactly does Fi feel like when you notice you use it?
I want to share how it feels for Ti user (particularly for ExTPs). It's like when you see something and you just know how it works and what is working behind the scene to come up with something. I looked at a music video, for example, and I basically see the "formula" in which they are operated upon (what factors in to make something look like this, from lighting to camera to equipment to screenwriting). I can see them working like cogs in the machine. The more I learn about it, the clearer these cogs feel to me and the more accurately I can apply it or expand from it into something else (which is Ne-Ti, but that's not the point here).
But what about Fi? I've seen many Fi users but only from outside perspective. How does it feel when you are using Fi? Is it like my Ti where everything clicks but in feeling department?
It's a sense of "no, absolutely not" or "this is where I am supposed to be / what I am supposed to be doing / this is ME" out of the blue. I have no clue what I want (Ne-dom) or how I am going to react until I am "into" something and have an internal 'response' to it. It's also a sense of "I have absolutely no choice except to be Me right now." Like, there is no other option. I can't pretend, and if it's rude not to, I have to force myself to grind out a semi-polite noncommittal answer just to deal with the awkward silence, but I absolutely cannot pretend to go along with anything that doesn't sit right with me. I just won't. It's like waiting for an internal temperature gauge to rise or fall in response to stimulus. Things I expect to upset me don't, and things I wouldn't expect to upset me, do. I have this rush of HELL NO or OH YES that comes over me, and tells me what to do. There's no point in ignoring it, because it won't shut up or go away, and unless I obey it, I will be angry at myself for a long time.
And I wonder why ExFPs are known for having strong Te but for ExTPs, we are not known for having semi-competent Fe?
I mean, I use Fe on daily basis. I rely on it to get people on the same page so we can support each other. I rely on Fe to reach out and convince people to my side and work together. I mirror people because that's how you can get to know them better (hence know how to work with or against them). It's all about being diplomatic so your message gets across to people and to allow clear communication. All ExTPs I know do this, some do it for good, others just toying with people. But we all operate with Fe. Thing is, I rarely see people talking about Fe in ExTPs at all. They usually just gloss over it as 'conniving' or 'cringe' attention seeking behaviors. I feel that's a bit unfair and baffling. Or they just meet those ExTP internet troll kiddos and believe we are all like that? Ugh!
I think ETPs have pretty proficient Fe, especially in terms of making people feel good and/or talking to them in a language they can understand; but a lot of it also depends, frankly, on their health level and their enneagram type. A 7 ESTP who takes responsibility for nothing due to constant re-framing is not going to care as deeply about the needs of other people (due to 7 being "about me") as a 3 or a 6 or a 9 attachment type who really, really wants other people to like and/or approve of them.
Thing is, you're a 3, so of course you're going to get upset about stereotypes about ETPs... because it makes you look bad. ;) Being a 3 makes you care about how you are perceived, it made you develop smooth interpersonal skills, and it allows you to abdicate yourself to mirror other people, which has aided in your Fe development. An 8 isn't going to do any of that and won't develop a 'softer' sense of their own Fe and/or might see Fe as a "weakness" in themselves.

exposing myself on the internet for a character assignment go brrrrr
also: *sweats in aroace*
Okay so I possess a distinct lack of hobbies because ✨ mental illness ✨ and also I am a total hikkineet. I do however, have less active hobbies like drawing, painting, reading/writing. I do enjoy rewatching Musicals from my childhood whenever I’m feeling down or generally empty. Some faves would be “The Sound Of Music”, “Mary Poppins” and “Anastasia”. Ya boi likes singing along with em even though I am terrible at it hehe ❤️
God okay. My personality. Uhh. I have a lot of feelings (and cry a lot) and I am extremely affection starved so show me positive attention and compliment me and I am fucking worshipping the ground you walk on so.. affectionate? I guess. Also Kind of quiet. I’m in my head a lot, and I have anxiety about voicing my opinion and thoughts to people. Especially irl. I’ll usually just remain silent or provide a few comments but otherwise mainly a listener. But if it’s a special interest and I can see that you are actively listening to me instead of waiting for me to stop talking I’ll turn into a walking Encyclopedia about Said thing. I do love physical affection but only when I am in the mood for it lol.
Giving love language is acts of service and gift giving (flashbacks to the time I offered to buy you something even though we barely knew each other). Receiving love language is words of affirmation probably idk i have 3 irl Friends outside of Family so my experience on the matter is limited.
Also people who are audibly/visibly angry will set off my fight/flight/freeze response and I will physically distance myself from them due to discomfort/fear. I’d also definitely go non-verbal as a result. This would be a time where touching me could result in a panic attack/me just crying lmao
Okay bare with me here because I have never actively considered my type so I’m only really thinking about it now
Type wise, perhaps someone kind but firm, I’d say? I lack a lot of motivation, self-discipline and self-respect, so a partner who is gentle, accomodating and understanding of my situation but isn’t afraid to call bullshit when they see it would definitely be preferable. Also direct communication because I CANNOT read between the lines. And.. someone who would go places with me. Not even for like the cute coupley things like Dates and Shopping or whatever (though that would be great too) but literally as a Support Person for stressful situations like dentists, doctors and other such appointments. Lord knows I need it because I stutter so badly when talking to strangers irl and stare straight at the ground and go silent when I inevitably become embarrassed at my lack of social skills💀 I don’t really have a strong preference for any hobbies a partner might have, but it would be cool to watch musicals together. And dress up and stuff. Maybe even cosplay. Idk just Indulging in each others hobbies would be fun. Also I struggle with like, mobile(?) communication and find it difficult to take the initiative to start text convos or call people, so they’d need to take the lead on that otherwise I may accidentally end up ghosting them. Not maliciously, but as I said, ya boy is stuck in his own little world a lot.
Also my favourite colour is green! HEX Code : #9AEEC8 (this probably wasn’t necessary but teehee)
And if a partner can’t handle spice I will constantly give them shit for it but in an affectionate way ❤️
(THIS WAS SO LONG IM SO SORRY IDK HOW TO SHUT UP WHEN PPL GIVE ME ATTENTION 😭)
THIS IS PERFECT ACTUALLY U GAVE A LOT OF DETAILS VERY IMPORTANT DETAILS AND THAT MAKES RHE JOB WAY EASIER!!
I match you with...
ROOK HUNT let me start this off by saying that this can be taken in both a platonic or romantic way and that in either way u and rook are like made for eachother im serious like u two are fucking inseparable, rook absolutely adores everything about you, you two have A LOT in common and he LIVES for it, rook and you can constantly be found almost sobbing over eachother and how much you mean to eachother, you two are so close people consider u both goals (couple or friendship it's up to u). rook is absolutely sure you two are soulmates he has never felt so connected to someone like he feels connected to you
rook loves spending time with you he adores talking to you even if to other ppl it might seem like he's being ignored rook knows he isn't he knows that you are listening intently to him and he loves it, most people hate it when he starts talking to them since he talks A LOT but you? you don't mind it! you stay there and listen to him ramble and sometimes even join him! rook always feel so warm when he manages to make you feel safe enough to ramble and infodump him and he'll be very happy if you allow him to do the same in exchange you two have a lot of interests in common and love talking about them to ppl that actually care so this normally ends w u both talking for hours non-stop and not even noticing as time goes by (not u two talking about vil for 5 hours straight)
rook absolutely adores your works, wether it's a drawing, a painting or a piece u wrote he'll love to see it, he could spend hours talking about your works seriously it became one of his special interests his ur number 1 fan now he'll always hype you up and even do some of them with you (like painting and reading together etc)
rook swears he can feel his heart exploding in his heart when u give him a gift this man won't stop smiling as he goes on and on about how much he absolutely adores you and how much he loves the gift and how he's so honored and happy to receive something like that and there's literal tears on his eyes as he does so, rook feels so happy when you offer to help him too, it means he gets more time to spend with you! and rook loves spending time with you<3
if you like words of affirmation than rook is the man for you, this man constantly writes poems about you and the special connection you two share and even though he has written multiple of them somehow they never ever look the same it's always so fresh as if it was his first time writing something like that, it also never fails to make you smile rook is very observant so he'll def know what makes you smile and he WILL be making a LOT of use of his privileged knowledge
rook knows how you get when someone is mad and being loud about it so whenever rook feels an situation escalating he'll immediately take you away from it and make sure you're okay, if rook ever happens to arrive to late he'll do his best to help you calm down, rook is super patient and even if you go non-verbal rook somehow still always know what to say and what to do, if you like company in times like these rook will not leave your side, he'll constantly be making sure you're feeling alright and comfortable and paying attention to your body language if you can't speak
rook will always encourage you to try new things at the same time he'll immediately take you out of any situations that make you extremely uncomfortable, for rook it isn't easy to trust people, however he trusts you, and he wants you to trust him back so he wants to be there for you, to show you he will always be by your side to support you and he wishes that you feel the same towards him
if you want to talk to someone or ask for anything but you're too nervous because they're a stranger rook will offer himself to do it for you, he has no problems doing that for you, rook would never shame anyone for not having good social skills because rook himself used to be very shy as a kid and he understands how hard it can be to talk to strangers
rook LOVES to watch and re-watch musicals with you! it's one of his favorite things to do, rook feels so happy when he's watching a musical you two like by your side he truly wishes that moments like these lasted forever, because there is no place rook would rather be than by your side
other possibilities: vil ( u two are like made for eachother seriously as i read ur info i was like omfg it makes sense why you love vil so much) lilia, cater & malleus

Hi!
I just saw a post on twitter where they talk about how jungkook said that the cover of seven was designed to look like the words were spread in water. Now people are connecting that to face, and when you put the face cover on top of the seven cover, there’s room for the word face in the middle.
Now so many people are talking about all of the similarities between seven and face and how they might really be connected due to the design.
I think I can voice my thoughts about this in a very concise and clean way.
I personally do not think that any aspect of SEVEN is related to FACE. I mean, the themes of the song and the album are ones that do not match up, conceptually, musically, or aesthetically.
FACE is a personal reflection of Jimin's innermost feelings of loneliness, self-doubt (In Alone), and self-preservation (in Face Off) as he undergoes a metamorphosis and emerges as a stronger individual who understands their worth (in Set Me Free Pt.2). The main title track, Like Crazy, is a story about someone who longs for someone/something they cannot have, a tragic love that only can exist in dreams. Like Crazy is followed by Alone, which begins with the sound of an alarm clock ringing, signaling to Jimin that the dream in Like Crazy is over, and he's now back in his isolated reality. It's a pretty raw album, and it's a very personal one.
Jimin spoke about this journey in great detail and even expressed how his Father was worried about him after listening to the songs. It's not just for show; it's very obvious that the people closest to Jimin understood that he experienced great hardship during this time, which Jimin stated to be during the pandemic/the fallout of the pandemic.
On the other hand, SEVEN is a song about being passionately infatuated with someone, whether that be through the form of loving or fucking. We love a sex-positive king. I really love how Jungkook shut down commenters that called the explicit version of SEVEN dirty. Sex is a natural part of many relationships (not all though, I'm looking at my fellow aces!) and can be seen as something intimate and beautiful. The vibe of SEVEN is very airy and it's a fun song for the summer... so I don't really see the point in linking something like this to an album of personal struggle and unrequited relationships.
They really do not match up, and I seriously don't think that Jungkook's solo debut would circulate around another member's solo work, especially that of Jimin's. So no, I don't think the album covered was designed with the intent to include FACE or connect back to FACE. This is one of those theories that I find to be a biiiiggg reach.
If people want to argue in favor of Letter being connected to Jungkook in some way, they can... that one is at least a bit more feasible than a Photoshop job of two song covers. At least Jungkook had a feature on that one and delivered a personal touch to the backing vocals. I know that you (or another anon) asked about my feelings on Letter, which I'll get to eventually... I'll let you know if I believe in that or not.

Omg Love, you’re too sweet! Thank you for making me feel included and not gatekeeping. I’m always soooo nervous to join a new fandom, especially knowing how passionate this one is! And yea sorry I tend to be too much always but ya know I’m working on it.. kinda? But yea Larry just feels wildly important to me for whatever reason? Like a month ago I had no clue who/what it was and now suddenly I’m trying to figure out how to fix all of society so they can just be. But I also just want to shake them and tell them to stop hiding and playing games and just do what they want and be together and fuck what everyone else thinks (unless of course this is what they want but it doesn’t feel like it is).
Also, can I just ask, do you/did you have a favorite out of the boys? I feel like in every fandom you have like you’re one favorite even though you love the group but like with these guys?? HOW??? Every time I think I could maybe choose I see a new video clip or hear a song or read a tweet or something and just like welp nope. Like oBviOuSlY Louis is amazing and so funny and like sharp witted and sarcastic which is my kind of humor and his solo music is incredible. But then you have Harry who is an icon and pushes the boundaries and makes me feel like free and confident in who I am and his music is just better! But then also Niall who is just the kindest sweetest purest little marshmallow to exist but is also funny in that kinda dorky silly way but then his music is like my obsession and he’s grown up and got all seductive. And of course Zayn I feel has just grown so much and seems so happy and healthy and his music is killing it and he really just said fuck what anyone says I’m going to do this for me and be better for me and just took back control of his life. And I can’t forget Liam who I feel like held them together so much and did his best to protect them all when he could but also stood by them and fought back against the industry. And he just came into his own and is still so playful and funny. All of them stayed so grounded and seem like genuinely good people and all of their solo careers and music is so good. I honestly cannot choose who’s vocals I like better. Is it just me? Is everyone else broken up by their favorite of the guys? Idk sooo sooooo sorry again for the long ramble love. Totally feel free to ignore this lol 😂🫣
hmmm so i 100% understand where you're coming from but i personally think there is a lot we dont really understand still. like in the past we put some pieces together but now since they're all solo i find it a bit harder to understand the reasoning, i mean its widely known that harry's team is trash, and although louis was finally able to get out of sysco and stuff i feel like theres still an element of not being truly themselves for the benefit of money and fame, which is what anyone high up in the music industry cares about anyways. so it's hard, but all we can do is show our support, right?
ahhhhhhh omg those descriptions of the boys are so accurate and how i feel exactly. so i'm an ot5 stan through and through, i will always love them all, but louis holds a very special place in my heart due to personal things hes gone through and me being able to relate to some of those things. most of my mutuals do have a fav between harry and louis but a lot are also ot5 so i appreciate that.
and do not be sorry to ramble at all!
if you ever feel comfortable to come off anon please feel welcome too, you dont need to hide here 💕
