i really like the idea of tailsunami (platonic or romantic idc but i love the name for their dynamic) bc i think in a way befriending tails IS a way of healing for kit. as of the latest issue, while yes kit is looking for people to be codependent with, i think it’s interesting how notably he seeks out “powerful people” (sonic), and then later when he sees tails with sonic he says to sonic “why would you need me when you have him.” i think he doesn’t really see tails as “legitimate” in a way bc he thinks they fill the same “sidekick” role and as such don’t matter outside of it. and so kit later on connecting with and caring about tails- while def will cause codependency issues like every one of kit’s relationships- has the potential to be healing in a fundamental way. anyway i love ur thoughts and would love to hear them if u want, but no pressure!!
I have been thinking all weekend about Tails and Kit actually getting to sit down and have a conservation about the whole sidekick thing because this is so true. To Kit, a sidekick is a tool, someone that the much stronger hero uses to further their own goals. And so when he sees Tails and realizes that him and Sonic are equals, partners even, it shakes him up a bit. Sonic and Tails don't need each other in the same way that Surge and Kit do, and I think understanding the difference would be really healing for Kit.

Crowley’s love language is acts of service. You see it when he does his little things for Aziraphale, when he saves his books from the explosion in 1941, when he miracles the paint away of his coat at the former convent, when he drives him anywhere or asks him where he could take him. He does what Aziraphale asks, he does even what he doesn’t ask but clearly wishes for.
I believe Aziraphale’s love language is mainly words of affirmation. That’s what he’s mostly responsive to, when he thinks he’s been called gorgeous (sad misunderstanding there), but also what he uses the most, like when calling Crowley nice, kind, good in all sorts of different occasions, or when voicing his forgiveness for him.
They make attempts to speak each other’s language from time to time, like when Aziraphale says he would do something for Crowley in return, or when Crowley finally decides to be direct and expresses his feelings. But it still looks like they have to work on that, respectively.
There is a language they share though, and it’s clearly quality time. It’s so natural for them to just enjoy spending time together, sometimes not even doing the same activity but just being in the same space. The countless lunches and dinners they shared, all those times when Aziraphale would read and Crowley would stay there in his presence, I can’t imagine how many strolls in the park feeding the ducks they had, how many theater, opera and ballet plays they must have watched together. How many times they must have stayed side by side while it was raining all around them, just not watching each other in the eyes and realising what was happening between them. That’s why they feel like a married couple, they are so comfortable around each other it’s like they’ve skipped the part where they actually discussed their feelings and cleared things out and instead already got to the lovely bickering part of spending a lifetime together.

wait can you elaborate on what you mean by how steddies treat dustin? im really not trying to incite an argument im just curious!
okey dokey.
first thing i have to make clear from the get go: there's probably some st/ddies out there that don't treat dustin like this, but i've never met them.
secondly: if you or anybody reading this disagrees with any of this, just block me. don't start an argument, don't send hate anons, just block me and leave. if any of you come in here looking for an argument, i'll just block you.
(sorry for all the precautions, but my friends have been harassed over answering an ask before and i don't really want to know what its like)
with that all out the way, let's talk abt one of my main issues with st/ddies. not with the ship itself (there's nothing inherently wrong with it, and when written well i like it), but with how st/ddies treat this character (and st/ve and e//ie).
to put it simply, st/ddies treat him like an accessory to s/eve and e//ie, and not as his own character. he's not only often used as the "HEY YOU TWO SHOULD KISS!" character, but he's never talked about apart from to support st/ddie.
which, by the way, i know about a LOT, being a lumax fan (just look at my url LMAO), considering how byIers use lumax to prop up byIer constantly to the point where they use our own fucking storyline and make it theirs. but that's for another rant.
in any case, i have a lot of experience seeing whether someone likes something for that something, or whether they like it because it supports their own stuff and in reality don't really care about it when its by itself, if that makes sense.
that's what st/ddies do with dustin. they take dustin and they just make him the person that links st/ddie together and then they just completely forget about him. you guys need to remember that st/ve only knew that e/die somewhat respected him bc of DUSTIN, and only because of DUSTIN would their feelings be able to increase, otherwise they'd be stuck in the strangers zone.
you can tell by the way they talk about a character whether or not they like the character as the character or like the character as the accessory to something they like just by the way they talk abt them, and how they talk abt that character's relationships with others (i've done it in the max tag countless times), and i'm sorry to say it but i've seen it so often that dustin is never mentioned outside of st/ddie, despite him being one of the core members of the team AND, let's admit it, more important, bc he figures everything out literally EVERY season.

💗 slow kiss / gentle kiss / inevitable / soft
Hiya Middy! Long time no see!! I hope life has been kind to you 💜💜💜
Tumblr media
lol we're thinking on the same wavelength today @coldshrugs 😂 :>
anyway. This was supposed to be a snippet. It...did not end up being a snippet omg, it really got away from me kdlfhgjkfdhgk. It's 3:40 in the morning and this is the first piece I've (more or less) finished in like 3 or 4 months. It's just under 1,300 words. Set a few weeks after the big Endwalker finale, so vague mentions of what happened there.
[prompt meme]
nascent hope & new beginnings
The uneven rhythm of O’ravi’s cane tapping on the cobblestone announces her presence before she emerges from the early morning fog that blankets Sharlayan, and Aymeric sets aside the report he was reading, its contents immediately forgotten.
She’s starting to look like herself again, a clarity in her eyes now that’s been absent since her return from Ultima Thule. The silver and teal shawl she’s wrapped around her shoulders clashes somewhat oddly with the dark red tunic dress she wears, which in turn contrasts with the royal blue ribbon that holds her hair in a loose ponytail. It’s a far cry from the well-coordinated outfits she wears for business and battle, but it suits her.
O’ravi smiles, a little lopsidedly, a little shyly, and waves. “Hey.”
“Good morning, Ravi.” He can’t help it—he runs to meet her, and offers his arm. “You’re up early.”
“The pain was too great to stay in bed. So I thought I might as well seek you out, enjoy the fresh air.” She moves to link her arm through his but pauses, a strange look on her face. Instead, she reaches up to grasp his collar and tugs.
Wordlessly, and with no small amount of confusion, he acquiesces to her wish and leans down.
And softly, sweetly, feather-lightly, she presses a kiss to his lips.
She withdraws before he realizes what happened, content. His heart lurches like a wounded animal within his chest, his breath suddenly shaky, and she winds her arm through his as if she didn’t just send him reeling.
He can’t bear to look at her, he can’t bear to look away. The kiss in Ala Mhigo, before she set out for Garlemald—when she’d kissed him like her survival depended on it only to flee for the airship. That was moons ago, and they’d not spoken of it yet. It was never the right time.
Now, this. Against all the odds she defeated Meteion and Zenos and made it home alive, and she could’ve gone to anyone—could’ve sought out anyone she wished—but she chose to be here. With him.
Halone have mercy.
They walk together down the garden path back to the pavilion. Her gait is unsteady and torpid, but between him and the cane she’s at no risk of falling. It frustrates and distresses her to be so robbed of strength, but he’s just glad to see her up and about and alive. Safe, and free.
There’s a chill on the breeze, carrying the promise of snow and the memory of home. The long walks they took through the Pillars on the eve of battles she didn’t believe she’d return from. He lays a hand over hers, letting her clammy hands soak up his warmth. Soon, they’d go home together, and never again would she need to leave fearing what fate awaited her in far-off lands. Not if he had anything to say about it.
They make their way to the bench where Aymeric left the report, and O’ravi attempts to fold her legs beneath her only to cringe and hiss when the motion aggravates some half-dozen different wounds.
“Careful,” Aymeric says, settling down beside her.
“It never gets easier.” She leans the handle of her cane into the corner of the pavilion wall, careful not to knock it over lest its clattering disrupt the morning quiet. Her tail swishes placidly as she shifts to close the distance between them, ensuring that her arm rests against his and her leg likewise touches his.
He raises his hand slightly in silent offering; without hesitation, she twines her fingers through his.
“Aymeric,” she says, so softly it’s almost a whisper, “what do you think happens now that the Final Days are over? No more Ascians, no more Garlean expansionism, no more Hydaelyn and Zodiark…”
“Years of rebuilding, to start with. No nation was spared the destruction the blasphemies and towers wrought—in every corner of the world, entire communities were wiped out, the population slaughtered or turned, to say nothing of the state of Garlemald. We must needs—”
O’ravi laughs. “No, no, no, I meant: duty and the wider world be damned, what do you want for your future?”
Ah.
He blinks stupidly, trying to cobble together an answer. “I’ve not put much thought into it, to tell you the truth.”
In truth, that is a flat-out lie. Of course he’s thought about it. But what he wants, what he longs for above all else—he cannot ask that of her. What if the request hurts her? And, perhaps it’s selfish, but what if her answer hurts him? Their friendship is too important to take the risk. No, he will hold his tongue.
“You don’t have to have it all figured out right now,” she says, and while her smile is tender there’s a knowing look in her eye that he can’t withstand. “Just think about it for a while.”
He never has been good at lying to her. His one consolation is that she’s just as bad at lying to him.
“What of you? The world is yours now, your life is your own again. What will you do with it?”
“Well.” She straightens her spine, ears twitching excitedly, and her smile takes on a mischievous edge. “After all I’ve done, I have more than earned the right to live as I see fit. I’ve earned the right to put duty and responsibility and reputation aside—and I know someone else who has earned the same.”
“We do owe much to your fellow Scions and Warriors of Light.”
“No, Aymeric, I mean you.” She takes his other hand in her own and squeezes. “The future is ours now. Ours to shape, ours to live. After all we’ve bled and suffered and sacrificed, we need to do something for ourselves. Just this much at least.” She leans towards him, and he has no choice but to meet her gaze. “You give and you give and you give of yourself until you have nothing left. The world takes and it never gives back, and before you know it you’ve lost yourself. I know this is happening to you because it happened to me, too. You have to draw a line in the sand somewhere and say, this is mine, this belongs to me, and the world can’t touch it. Aymeric, may I tell you what I want for the future?”
The light is glinting off the gold veins that mar her eyes. Her sincerity is painful to behold.
“Of course.”
“I want you to find yourself again. I want to find me again…and I want us to do it together. I want us to walk into the future together, hand in hand, side by side. Whatever paths we walk going forward, I want us to walk them together until the end of our days.”
“I…”
By the Fury, how is he supposed to answer that? How is he meant to—?
His heart is racing, and she’s watching him with such an innocence, a kindness that’s driving him mad.
Her wish answers the question he couldn’t voice. Yet it still leaves some things up in the air, namely: will they continue to keep a distance between them? Pretend Ala Mhigo never happened and remain friends and naught more?
A deeply foolish thought—he knows what the answer to that is, even if he won’t admit it—but nonetheless…
O’ravi raises an inquisitive eyebrow. “What say you, my brilliant blue knight?” His thoughts are spinning too rapidly to be trusted now, so despite the fact he’ll likely regret it later, he follows the impulse of his heart and kisses the scar that cuts across the bridge of her nose. Let that be answer enough.
#i slammed this out in one night so it is nowhere near as polished as what i usually post#if i allowed myself to edit it it would never get posted SO#no editing we die like dragoons using elusive jump during the titan boss fight#well i mean. i'll probably edit it tomorrow afternoon but. for now we're not playing that game GKJHDFLGKJ#don't judge me don't look at me it's 3am and this held me hostage even as my brain's ability to words sputtered out T^T#we are NOT main tagging this it is TOO SILLY#i might be cringe but i am freeeeeee baybee#i will probably rewrite the end later but for now it is good enough#i decided not to let the perfectionism win and prevent me from writing + posting this so if it's messy that would be why lmao#i will fix it later for now we are floating in the goofy pool and crying into our hands !!!#o'ravi soltholia#rogue writes#o'ravmeric#OKAY BYE IM GONNA SLEEP NOW BEFORE THE ANXIETY CAN CATCH ME 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️#endwalker spoilers#really really vaguely??? idk but just to be safe#HELPPPPP#is this even coherent? idk but i had fun writing it. that's the important part#and considering the migraines and pain and brain fog I've been in lately im amazed i was able to write at all#so. even if this sucks i created something so MISSION ACCOMPLISHED#thank u for the asks besties 💕 it really did help clear the brain fog a lil#also for the record this is my first time writing shippy stuff that isn't pre relationship or It's Complicated so. yay!!!!!#the only other shippy stuff ive written was shepard and kaidan angsting about shepard's death so this is new territory for me 😂

South Park is so wild because I think it’s hard to imagine a more controversial piece of extremely mainstream media. Maybe not so much anymore, because the reputation has shifted so greatly over the last 26 years, but back in the 2000s that shit was everywhere. I don’t need to have been aware of pop culture in that era to know that South Park was a show that everyone had heard of. And it was always, even back then, wrapped up in controversy. But it’s still going strong, with only a handful of banned episodes and an abysmal reputation to its name.

man the wrap effect managed to surprise me by being so good, then had some really bad things along the way and finished in a completely unsatisfying way 😭spoilers ahead:
Firstly, the last episode simply undid everything from the whole series??? what was the point of all these trials if he just ends up "fixing everything" in advance? it doesn't work like that and it made the whole series feel so pointless. (And I can overlook the obvious plotholes of nim not getting pregnant and Alex and Jean not becoming friends with the popular gangs etc, that's. fine.)
Like I don't mind endings that wrap (ha) everything up in a tight little bow, but this just felt hollow.
Especially after the intensity of last episode and how it ended, it felt like we skipped straight to the epilogue without getting actual real resolution for the problems.
And of course, the Jean x Alex of it all.
I mean firstly, I would have been so much happier if she was with Tony (and what was the thing with Kat and Tony that looked like they're going to DATE when Kat is clearly aromantic 😭😭).
But more importantly, ever since we find out Alex raped Jean - I couldn't stand the idea of them being endgame. I LOVED the complexity they handled it with. I loved that, even tho he's (generally, except for some real weird outliers in the writing) a good person, and that what happened wasn't with malice, it doesn't mean it wasn't traumatizing and terrible. I loved that she does like him, but she just still can't forgive him. I kept being afraid she would just give in and be with him and kept being pleasantly surprised she turned him down bc, understandably, she couldn't get passed their past.
Then he undid everything and was good and respectful and I mean, she doesn't even know there was a timeline where it happened but ughhh still! this is what I was scared was gonna happen and it did.
I mean, Jean, my beloved darling sweetheart - for her I wanted that. I WANTED her not to have to live with all this shit, she didn't deserve it. But fuck this is how it is in real life 😭.
And I mean. he could go back to not rape her and then not get with her ....
I hated that his priority during the whole series was to nag her into forgiving him bc he wanted to go back, when she needed him to leave her alone.
I hated that the message (at least how I understood it) was that the whole thing happened because of the evil curse and not because of Alex. Because it was "the wrong time" aka before he's 18, and not because he was mindless to his partner when he should have paid the most attention.
I loved the message from the episode before - YES, you will have to live with this guilt for the rest of your life, just like she has to live with the trauma for the rest of hers!!! Shit is complicated! That's life and it's important to show that, yeah, actions have consequences, and hurting people hurts them!!! And sometimes there's nothing to do but for each of you to move, live your separate lives and try to heal.
But now he's just... off the hook? UGh

um... not to be rude but isn't not having Loki in the next Thor movie what you wanted? I can't help but remember a bunch of anti-Ragnarok posts about how Taika Waititi turned the franchise into a big joke and calling CH "Chris Odinson" who insulted TM? Wasn't it keep Loki away from that at all costs? I don't understand why you changed your mind...
Hi sorry this got buried in my notes and I didn't see it
I haven't really changed my mind? Sorta? I still think that Taika Waititi did a terrible job with Ragnarok. One of the things I liked about the Thor franchise was its darker themes, at least compared to the rest of the mcu (and I also liked Loki. Obviously) and TW just kinda smashed that up and replaced it with awful characterization and like, butt jokes (idk it's been forever since I've seen Ragnarok).
But ever since the Loki series, I've kinda been like...actually, can we go back to Ragnarok? Cuz despite the shittiness of that mess of a movie, at least it didn't give us false hope at representation. At least its creator never pretended to like Loki. And at least it gave us a few good moments (I did love that Loki used their horns as a weapon, and I did like Thor's power upgrade).
Obviously, I still prefer Thor 1 and 2. But I've lost all hope that the mcu will ever be as good as it once was.
Also, as Tom Hiddleston once said (I think, idk): there is no Loki without Thor, and no Thor without Loki.
Actually, I think that's another reason the Loki show sucked. Thor did not show up at all, and was rarely talked about. We all know how much Thor means to Loki ("I may be envious, but never doubt that I love you") so the fact that their love for Thor wasn't really addressed (or even mentioned) really bothered me.
So, having a Thor movie without Loki is like having a Loki series without Thor, in that it's inevitably going to suck (even more than I predict it still would with Loki in it).
Also, maybe it's the optimist in me, but I really, really want to believe that Taika can make a good Thor movie if he really tried (as in, correct characterization and all that). I am glad that he sees Jane Foster's Thor as the Mighty Thor instead of just "Lady" Thor (though I do have my anxieties about how he'll go about portraying Jane). I think that if he gave Loki a chance, he could see our favorite god of mischief as more than just a pampered jerk (like they were portrayed in more recent mcu projects) and instead as a broken but loveable trickster who has gone through so much and received so little.
So, to summarize my feelings: yes, I think that Taika did a bad job with both Thor and Loki in Ragnarok, but I do think that Love and Thunder will be even worse than Ragnarok if Thor's love of Loki is not acknowledged and if he doesn't bring Loki to life in the form of kid Loki or if Loki doesn't at least make a cameo. Because let's face it, Thor's story and Loki's story are tied together so tight that you can't possibly make anything good about one without the other
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I mean, Loki was way, waaaayyyy worse in the comics (literally called themself the god of evil for a while) and Thor still missed them and brought them back. Also the fact that Thor thought of Loki more as his brother than Balder is pretty hilarious considering Balder has never tried to kill Thor and is also actually related to him
So, yeah. I at least want a Loki cameo because Thor and Loki are important to each other, dammit
