POINT OF VIEW — 01 : rude for what..

prev - next - masterlist

as you walked into your new school, talking, laughing, and gossiping captivated the hallways. you looked around nervously, seeing so much people. god, if this is how much people you see in the hallways, then just imagine how big the school is.. (the exterior already made you feel like dying.)

you went over to a random locker, leaning onto it as you opened your phone. a minute passes, and youre immersed into your phone, not paying attention to anything around you. as you were about to text one of your friends (most likely riki), someone stood in front of you, looking down at you. how long had they been standing there for? you dont know, but you hope not for long.

“are you gonna stay on your phone all day or get off my locker?” you immediately shoved your phone back into your right pocket, looking up at the person who confronted you. she was pretty—ethereal. her features were insane. a group of 3 stood behind her, staring right at you. you snapped out of your trance, immediately moving off of her locker. “u-uh—sorry..!” great, yn ln. you embarrassed yourself not even an hour into your new school.

“who was that?” you heard one of them speak when you started to walk away, “i dont know..” one of them responded.

you finally got into your first class after so much walking, taking a step in as you took a look around. the first face you noticed? the owner of the locker that you were leaning on. aand thats when you were fucked. she immediately turned her head to you, as you two made eye contact. you turned your head away from her, turning to the teacher. “oh! yn! everyone, please welcome our new student. ln yn.” your teacher announced as you just stood there awkwardly. “umm.. yn, you can take a seat right there,” he pointed to an empty seat. you walked over, taking a seat.

“hi, im ning!” the girl to the right of you greeted, as you looked at her. wasnt she one of the girls apart of that group?, you thought. “ooh,, hi, im yn.” you replied as she giggled, “nice to meet you! friends?” she boldly asked, smiling. “yeah, sure.” you nodded, happily. you embarrassed yourself on the first day of school, but you made a new friend.. at least? its the thought that counts.

“alright! bye, everyone!” your first period teacher waved goodbye, the bell ringing as you got up from your seat, packing up before heading out. you walked through the hallways with your phone out, texting riki and yujin. as you continued to walk, you bumped into somebody, dropping your phone, “a—ah, im sor…” you looked up at the person.

WHAT THE FUCK.

you were met with the same girl who owned that damn locker.

“can you fucking watch where youre going, new girl?” she rolled her eyes, looking you up and down as you just picked up your phone from the floor and stood back up. “maybe you watch where youre going?” you bit back, “just learn how to stay out of my way, ‘kay? you seem a little obsessed,” she clicked her tongue, looking you up and down once more before walking away, leaving you stunned.

“..that bitch,” you murmured.

PROLOGUE TO—UNREQUINTED FEELINGS…C. BROCK X FEM!OC

warnings: mentions of alcohol, weed, and partying.

a/n: im a little bored, so like erm!! heres this :)

ALIYAH MCKENNA HARDY was never the party type, but her best friends—Milo, Amayah and Makayla forced her out of the house—So she put on her best party outfit and went on.

On the way in the uber the 3 girls and Milo chatted about the recent video they did with Sam and Colby at The Conjuring House.

With continous mentions of Abigail and the whole knocking method. It was kind of freaky.

As they arrived to the party, the first person they saw was Nate—Aliyahs older brother—He was with some girl in the front yard drinking some mixed drink.

"Hey Nate! Hey uh- What one is this?" Aliyah wasnt meaning to sound rude, but Nate had loads of girl friends and she couldnt keep track of their names.

But the girl took offense to that then rolled her eyes walking off.

"Really Lia! I was gonna make a move!" Nate was clearly upset and Aliyah felt bad, "Sorry- I didnt mean to sound rude or something! It wasnt even a rude question!"

With that, Nate rolled his eyes and walked away. What a bitch, only sometimes though, you know, siblings.

Aliyah then blinked and scurried inside with her group, the strong smell of alcohol and weed hitting her senses, how gross.

She and her friends walked around for a bit, losing Makayla to Hayden. They were probably making out in a closet somewhere.

Aliyah had finally found a non alcoholic drink, or so she thought, and sipped slowly. But Milo and Amayah on the other hand? Oh they were hammered the second they walked in.

She looked at everyone around, hoping to see one person in particular.

Then she did, but he was with some other girl.

She bit her lip, and got up to find someone to talk to, as she was left alone on the couch.

Colby had come to the party with Sam and Nate way before Aliyah and her friends.

When Nate told him she was coming, he ran to his car and got a new shirt.

Nate gave him a odd look, kind of pissy aswell.

All Colby said was he spilt something on himself a bit ago.

Nate let it go, and went on his own, leaving Colby and Sam.

Sam then started teading the shit out of him, "You like Lia!! You like Lia!!"

And Colby shooed him off, "Do not! Shes like a little sister to me! And far to young!"

Sam gave him a 'Be For Real' look, "Come on Cole, shes only 24, you're 26, Thats not bad!!" Colby rolled his eyes, "Point is; I do not like her."

"Sure you dont!!" And he walked away with a chuckle to go get a drink, leaving Colby a little red and irritated.

A few hours into the party, he had heard Amayah—He was gonna go over, but saw Aliyah and got nervous, so he just went over to a random girl in hopes to get over this 'small' feeling.

A little bit of dancing later, his eyes met Aliyahs. She looked upset, but then got up and danced with a random guy.

Thats not like her at all.

Aliyah had gotten over to the guy and started dancing and jumping with him.

Amayah ran over aswell and started to dance, "Lets party till we die! I like this Aliyah!"

Aliyah was smiling and laughing, happy she came out rather than sitting in bed watching shameless and eating ramen.

She walked away a bit later and got another drink, but realized it was alochol, but shrugged and then chugged.

She had about 7, and damn is she a lightweight.

By the end of the night her heels were off and she was stumbling into some random guys car.

Or atleast.. she thought he was random.

A/N: okay so uhuhuhuhuh there ti is guyd erm…

If you could how would you fix ino's development

i love you and also im sorry.

ino is such an interesting character, kishimoto took your average pretty mean girl and made her actually super sweet and caring, adaptable, and intelligent

i actually like her personality a lot, she values her looks and can be a bit crabby but compared to sakura, ino is a lot more willing to work with her teammates. she actively takes charge to the point that shikamaru and choji look to her for what to do

id keep her "crush" on sasuke but id instead make it something that sakura misinterpreted and ino went along with bc she thought sakura just didnt want to be friends anymore. she still flirts with sasuke but in a joking way.

id keep her rivalry with sakura but makes it explicit that she wasnt the one that instigated it, id also make her less "mean" in a stereotypical bully way since she was the one that defended sakura from bullies in the first place. she should still be sassy and a bit of a hot head but not overtly rude to others.

also id have her win her fight with sakura, just bc i think it contributes better to sakura's development, but also opens up an extra fight in the chunin exams. not sure who id pit her against but im just saying it would give her more stuff to do (maybe shino? they were both top students at the academy)

she goes on the sasuke retrieval mission and stays behind to help choji fight. theres no reason that she shouldnt go, choji can still almost die and ino can use the time he bought her to finish off orochimaru's lackey but ino has PROVEN to be a good ninja, even if her fighting isnt that great shes fantastic crowd control…come the fuck on.

development wise…no healing abilities…it just felt so tacked on and she didn't nearly have as much passion for it as sakura did. id focus 100% on her clan's reconnaissance bc their abilities are super interesting. would def give her an upgrade regarding her body switching jutsu so shes not left unconcious on the ground with every technique. when shes a genin thats fine but ur telling me sasuke can summon God and ino still can't control people without falling asleep?

okay the puppet scene with the "Mind Puppet Switch Cursed Seal Technique" literally has not left my mind its SO cool and I wish ino learned to use it. is it "ethical"? no. might even be a war crime. but thats fine i think. let ino be a little scary.

AND!!! SUNA LITERALLY HAS A PUPPET MASTER!!! Ino can train with kankuro or at least ASK for assistance

ALSO. OH MY GOD. GIVE HER MORE TO DO IN THE HIDAN AND KAKUZU ARC HOLY SHIT. that arc literally just ended up being about shikamaru (based) and naruto (???) why weren't ino and choji more present!! naruto literally appeared to save the day with his new jutsu when this mission shouldve been team 10 and team 10 ONLY (kakashi is on thin ice)

i like the confrontation between shikamaru and hidan in the forest, thats fine, but ino and choji should be absolutely duking it out with kakazu and his family of puppets! you know who else uses puppets/external tools? INO. Have her try to control kakuzu's external guys while choji beats him up, naruto arriving on the scene feels cheap :/ have kakuzu remark that "oh the strategist is gone" and then ino just immediately takes over as the leader and thinks of a plan because shes teammates with shikamaru's lazy ass and also BEING SMART IS LITERALLY SO IMPORTANT TO HER CHARACTER

AND GIVE HER (AND CHOJI) A SCENE WHERE SHE MOURNS ASUMA. OH MY GOD. HER FUCKING TEACHER JUST DIED. Ino is sidelined sooo much in team 10 its insane. maybe she and her dad (while not super close) talk about what its like to lose people you love, her dad has been a ninja for decades, he would comfort her. have her arrange a bouquet and place it on asuma's grave, have her break down crying over her teacher! this would also be interesting since we dont spend as much time with team 10, but would be able to see that the side characters have their own lives and feelings outside of naruto.

regarding romance ive personally always seen her as a lesbian but her relationship with sai is fine i guess. if she and sai are endgame id like more of a buildup to it. but if i can get my way she and sakura end up together <3

i think shes fine in the war arc, but the war arc itself is something i just wouldnt include if i were to rewrite naruto

also her blank period outfit is UGLY throw that shit OUT girl

#naruto rewrite #ino yamanaka #mine #sorry for rambling im just angry at how dirty the manga did her #she and tenten are tied for most abandoned characters :(

why is my class in art so odd. tell me why my class is always yelling, screaming, and even a few kids (im looking at you, JUSTIN) moaning. ome time in art, i got stabbed in the hand with a colored pencil. today, my crush (the dude i told you about a few weeks ago or something) SAT ON MY LAP. LIKE WHAT ??

anyway, my cat is always so aggressive at night. this mother fucker was biting and scratching at my hand . he only does this at night too, specifically when im on my phone/ipad

update on me and my friend reading your old smaus: we only got halfway through the todoroki one bcus she had to hang up for something, but thats not the point. we giggled. a lot. lots of giggling. so silly. were goofy goobers (just like my name). she wasnt paying too much attention cause she was doing other stuff so at one point she didnt understand what kirishima was talking about (the part where he was calling todoroki out for being rude to Y/N and dumping water on her) so i went on a rant about the lore and Y/N & todorokis history and how they first met and stuff.

im starting to think im not judt reading these to make fun of them and im actually reading them bcus they are actually interesting and entertaining (ngl 2021 you was cooking with these smaus 🔥🔥)

WHY IS THE PICTURE SO LOW QUALITY. I CAN LITERALLY COUNT THE PIXELS. THE WORDS LOOK LIKE A MINECRAFT ENCHANTMENT TABLE. (idk if its still gonna be low quality when i send this but like. its so low quality.)

ur crush sitting in ur lap… ur winning i fear !

and the pic isn’t low quality on my end lolz

Destruction Monarch! Cha Hae In & Shadow Monarch! Sung Jin Woo AU

Now hold on... I can see this being a ship fic. Absolutely. BUT I can also see this being a Gen fic with romance subplot that arent Cha x Sung.

So you can make what you will with this, peronally i just want them to be friends to rivals to friends again.

Sung Jin Woo and Cha Hae In were normal people until Sung Jin Woo was awaken as an E rank, and 2 years later so was Cha Hae In. But Cha was chosen to cultivate the powers of the Destruction Monarch instead and slowly influenced by his mana to hate humanity. It was the architect that made Cha's nose be sensible to the mana from the rulers. The system drove her to isolation just like SJW which is why she never got into a guild until much later.

She could speak to the magic beasts, which made her feel even worse to kill those outside from what the system provided, and not to mention the stares that she got from Choi Jong In because the power, though mostly physical, was also magical in the same sense that she could breathe fire and create it from her fingers.

The stronger she became the harder it was for her to not act as prideful as Antares, of course not by such a margin(everyone else just thought "eh normal S rank pride") and also the more worried Go Gun Hee was that she wasnt doing anything except going on sidegigs offered here and there by some guilds and other manufacturers (if she continued to have done so then Go Gun Hee might have to call the other guilds to help encase the probable "loose S rank" because unlike Min Byung Gyu, shenever resigned and could one day atttack them).

A few months after her testing, he talked to her that it would be better if she joined a guild or founded one. Go Gun Hee told her if she didnt want to then she could always come to the association. Of course she had been given the same talk a day after her evaluation, this time though... it was a warning.

Cha rejected the last offer immediately but agreed on the first, and went to the knights guild on the count that she will do her raids alone.

"Atsushi Kumamoto was one of the few other S ranks that could defeat B rank dungeons alone".

"Miss Cha, Japan has different polocies to organize their guilds, grants them different freedoms. You will have to get aproval from the asso-- hey! miss Cha where are you going?!"

Go Gun Hee tried her 20 times inside an A rank dungeon before giving out full aproval, and the master of the knights guild did the same. That took almost four months to complete.

Some time on... and after a two week long dungeon-fight did she come out to the real world with even more powers of a dragon monarch. And a lot of rage as she heard the news of an S rank dying in the second raid to Jeju Island(that she had not been contacted to go... and they had no way to reach her...), and Hwang Dong Soo bailing out to the US.

From the first killing done by awakened ones at the start of the decade, to the deaths of thoudsands by lizards and false rankers. Her breaking point wasnt only Hwang Dong Soo but also the rest of the recruited teams from other nations trying to get a hold of her power and willing to pay everything just so she can leave her family and the nation she grew up behind like it was nothing. As if she hadnt, at one point, trained to her outmost limit so she could become the best athlete of South Korea.

The system was corrupting her, but it all went to a full stop, at least for a while, when she met Sung Jin Woo, a hunter that accidentally saw her enter a huge gate by herself and got worried over her safety, then immediatly jumped in before the red gate clocked in.

Cha Hae In had to keep the E rank from injuring himself. She berated him for being absolutely stupid like why would you go over to a gate by yourself?!?

"I was worried that you did the same!"

Jin Woo thought he would die right there for being so rude to an S rank, but thats what Cha needed to hear because, yeah, she did go by herself, though after living alone for so long and everyone having to depend on you, Cha Hae In felt a bit happy after hearing someone was worried over her. Even if he didnt know who she was at first.

His nature seemed to please her, he wasn't as smelly as the other hunters, which worried her over just how weak he might be. In the next days that passed trying to find the boss and killing the rest of the beasts inside the gate. Cha got to know about Sung's situation and cause, bc at the end he really doesnt think they will meet again so it will be fine with just telling her those problems, (he just wants for someone to listen.) how he hunted just so he could pay debts to the hospital and the education of his sister.

Contrary to the belief that Cha had been given about this E rank being awfully full of himself because he was still stronger than most people, she felt... pity? Well sadness. It was something that had been burned down by the system alongside her other emotions, so maybe, hope? Hope that he lives long enough? Hope that things get better for him?

"Here, you can have some crystals."

"Th-this is the d‐unge-on's—Bo--b-–Boss!"

"Dont worry since they know you are with me, ill say its part of your share for helping me out."

"Please take it back. I didnt do anything."

She glared back at him, using an intimidation skill and the Monarchs authority[rulers authority but for the monarchs] to lift him up to her eye level.

"I dont take no's for an answer."

He was a stubborn boy though. And thats what also seemed to intrigue her, how despite his jaw trembling, he still answered. "No matter what, you killed it, so you have to keep it."

She bit the inside of her lip, setting off her skills. "Alright fine, here." She gave him all the mana crystals that Sung Jin Woo found after killing a small bird to get its meat from, she wont say that the bird was actually killed by her hand from the back tho.

Jin Woo accepted.

"and these too."

"these are..."

"For your mother and sister." it was better to be truthful instead. Cha almost took it back were it not for the small flickering of his fingers as he slowly grabbed them out, and then the murmur that came.

"thanks"

They never came across each other moving foward. Cha had to attend obligatory guild conferences, resist the urger to fight the vessels of the rulers, like Liu Zhigang and Siddharth Bachchan who possed a lot of pride in themselves and Cha wanted to bring it down a noch, yet her guild master always warned her that she will be fired if she does so. Hmph.

Surprisingly Jin Woo came into the picture two years since her awakening. And boy had he grown.

Still... she noticed he had gotten stronger each day, even if it was a little mana. He also seemed to have a record of breaking into dungeons and rising through the ranks. So Cha Hae In was... more interested.

Cue the prejeju raid arc where all the s ranks are gathered up, Goto offers to make a 4v4 spar, he adds Cha to the mix and Cha Hae In, a bit annoyed that he thinks she wont just 1 ko them in an instant, (still she lets it fly because 1) she wants to use her new dragon wings and 2) she is hidding her mana by a huge margin, a request done by Park Jongsoo [knight's guild master] since he wanted Goto Ryuji to not attack her in case her power hurt his pride.) Asks Goto what will the winner gain in return.

Goto tells her to decide, and she says a 1v1 match with whoever she the winner chooses, except healers.

Goto thinks she is getting cocky and is talking that she wants to fight him, so he accepts and brings the best 4 hunters and tells them to not hold back at all, she needs to be put in her place.

Ma dongwook goes instantly to fight Kenzo Tanaka. Baek and Lim go for the other two as canon and Cha fights Kanae with one hand, she doesn't want to go all out just yet, and these 4 are nothing to get work up for, so when Lim Tae Gyu and Ma Dongwook are out is when she finally gets going, simply touching the back of Kanae. She heads over to where Baek is with two members, Atsushi is about to get her but only needs one stare before he is frozen to his knees and Cha grabs onto his wrist and walks quietly to the others. Kenzo is already about to finish Baek off with his wrist but she saves Baek at the last second by snatching Kenzo's wrist. Now Minoru is getting absolutely serious with her, meanwhile Cha is on the same pose as Park once was, one hand on her pocket.

("Hyung-nim Mis Cha is acting just like you!!"

"Wha are you so happy about? She is acting arrogant again this will definetly make her reputation worse!"

"But hyung-nim... people seem to simp for strong women, have you seen how the guilds insta explotes when she is shown in the photos..."

"Do–dont remind me.")

Minoru takes great offense to that and uses his best skill, dashing at an incredible speed that even impresses all the s ranks. And Cha? Well when Minoru finally shouts that she has caught her, she is nowhere to be seen. Sung Jin Woo, Choi Jong In and Mari Ishida all guess that was teletransportation. But just then Kei points out to the rest the shadow that is above the room and finds Cha Hae-In flying with dragon wings streching out of her back, looking as amazed as they are because Holy Shit this are awesome!

In less than a blink she goes back to the stage, having a hard landing that made her crack the floor with her feet(ow ow ow! keep it cool! keep it cool!), and she takes a mental note to have better practise with those wings later on instead of adding more colateral damage to the gym.

"Noona-nim that was awesome!! You are the best!!" Jung Yoontae cheers as she grabs Minoru's wrist since she landed in the same spot he froze.

Cha can't help but shy away or a little as a blush sets on her, no matter how much the system can make her as cold blooded or confident as it needs her to be, those sudden and innocent praises just make her go back to her old self.

In fact there are quite a lot of things which do make the system much more difficult to control her. Her parents and little brothers & sisters. Her cat Honeycomb, named after her favorite ice cream. And even the knight guild members are all just so nice! Its playin with her heart and she(+system) hates how she cant hate them.

Anyways she is snaped out when the translator asks Cha if she wants to spar with Goto and Cha says.

No:)

Directs her face to Jin Woo and asks to spar with him.

Jin Woo, blinks, then agrees, they both feel thrill in the fight and agree to call it a truce before they end up destroying the whole coliseum. Both of the walk out so happy and refreshed, while the rest of the hunters are scared as fuck.

Oh like the good old days~

Due to thrill, Jin Woo actually decides to join in so he can make a bet with Cha to see who gets more kills.

"But it wont be fair is you use your magic." Cha replies, having known that he is a summoner. Jin Woo agrees on the condition she also doesn't use her magical abilities and thats when!!---

[You have been given a Challenge by the Shadow Monarch, do you accept?]

[Y/N]

She smiles, "shadow monarch huh?"

Before Jin Woo can even be shocked at the fact that she knows his title, a message appears.

[The Monarch of Destruction has accepted your Challenge.]

i dont know if i mentioned this, but so, ive been putting up small hand drawn Palestinian flags around the house. theres only one that hasnt been torn down(by the teens), and a second one that im just waiting to dissapear, because I put it up recently.

one of the teens complained that it was a Palestinian flag and not a Finnish one, so i began to draw the Palestinian flag and the Finnish flag on the same piece of paper. i know that the teen didn't actually care if it was a Finnish flag or not, but might as well try to shut them up you know.

and so, once it was clear that easily reachable flags were not going to stay up for more than 2 days, i asked if I could put one in the office, since teens arent allowed there unsupervised. first i put it on the door, didn't stay. i put one on the wall next to the door, didn't stay. i put one on a cabinet door that was a meter from the doorway, didn't stay.

and like last week i was going to put up a new one again. but when i asked for permission to, i got denied. because "the office represents the whole unit, and they try to stay impartial".

and I just got so fucking angry at that, but obviously raising your voice with adults will go nowhere, so I had to rely on my tone of voice to express how pissed off i was.

and i tried to ask why having a Palestinian flag on the wall is political. but the only answer i got was like "well if a teen comes in thats from there, then they might not like it", and i tried to ask what about a Palestinian flag would they not like. and they said that "it might make them uncomfortable" and I asked why would they be made uncomfortable by criticism of their state (because it was obvious that we were not discussing a potential teen from Palestine) and they just answered with "Palestine is not a state(/country)" and I said that i was talking about israel anyways. and they continued to try and make it seem like my Palestinian flags had the words "EVERY SINGLE JEWISH PERSON IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEATH OF 30 000 PALESTINIANS" written on them. (and i hopefully dont need to clarify that there was nothing like that written on them.)

and everytime I tried to ask why condemning a genocide was "too political" for them, I got no answer. the most i got was an accusation: "i see what youre trying to do", i wasnt trying to do anything, "youre trying to appeal to my emotions", actually, no. i was just trying to get some fucking answers out of them; why is condemning a genocide too political.

but the coward wouldnt even admit that the "political aspect" is whether or not you consider it a genocide.

and you could have just said that. i would have accepted your shitty reasoning. but instead you made it sound like youre too afraid to condemn genocide. like holy shit, that is not something i would risk to be misunderstood about an institution that's literally built for the health and safety of kids.

and at one point, while they were explaining this "political neutrality" they mentioned that they try to follow the state, because apparently Finland is so politically neutral. and at that, even they had to admit that joining NATO made Finland lose its neutrality.

but the implication that it even had it in the first place is laughable. literally even our school's history book tries to get you to ponder whether or not Finland was truly neutral when it said it was.

like just,, cut the shit, and say that you can't call what israel is doing a genocide. just say that. i hate this shit where you try to make me feel rude and manipulative for asking where you stand on something.

especially cuz like, teens are never winning a fight with an adult. adults will always get to have the last say, or get their way, or end it with something like "this not the kind of conversation to be had with children" or some other shit where actually they were never in the wrong, they're just so old, and you cant possibly expect them to respect you, with some flavour of "oh youre just a child you dont understand this adult stuff"

and the fact that an adult is willing to leave a serious conversation, like the one we were having, just up in the air, without conclusion,, that feels really disrespectful. it feels like im not worth the time or effort it would take to actually finish the conversation, to properly conclude it.

and it also feels like you care more about this "potentially uncomfortable" teen, than the very real teens who have died and are currently dying.

just. very disrespectful. it doesn't matter that your job requires you to not take a stand on certain things, because even then the least you could do is clearly explain that.

perhaps even say what the thing you are "not taking a stand on" is.

#im tired of adults and their bullshit #tearful stuff

lore dump about the sailor trio because i keep thinking about how they met lovart, sorry for no read more im on mobile ajfjwjwkhash

skagen is such a rude little shithead to people he doesnt know yet. mostly its because he thinks its so difficult to get to know new people to the point where he often thinks its easier to keep them on arms length from him by being rude or not talking at all

he grew up with solvei so that was never a problem between them, they know each other better than themselves sometimes. solvei can always tell what skagen is thinking and vice versa; they work together really well thanks to this

when they first met lovart skagen was prickly and grumpy as always, but he quickly warmed up to him when he noticed they actually have a lot in common and lovart wasnt pushing him into getting to know him

and while solvei was cheerful and sweet as ever and took lovart's phone number just in case they would need his help again, skagen didnt do it and lovart didnt offer it because he figured skagen wasnt interested in keeping contact anyways.

UNTIL the little green haired loser turns up at his workshop again with another torn sail, asking for help with it and staying for a little while. lovart offered him fika (coffee, pastries and a casual chat) and skagen hesitated but decided it could be worth a try.

which it was, because he quickly grew completely enamoured by lovart's mannerisms and the way he talked about his work and life in general. others might find the way lovart talks (quiet, a bit slow, hesitates a lot and stumbles on his words, sighs A LOT) annoying or frustrating but skagen finds it incredibly endearing

and when skagen heads home again, lovart texts solvei something like "i thought your brother hated me, but he even stayed for fika. i fixed your sail again, it should be fine but if it breaks again i'll fix it for free"

solvei of course thinks thats very funny because 1) skagen and solvei arent siblings but she thinks its funny that others assume so and 2) "oh my god is skagen willingly getting to know a new person?? i should call the press"

this turns into skagen using förutan vind to blast his sails with wind until they break, bringing them over to lovart just to hang out more, and lovart poorly fixing the sails in order to have skagen return with them again. he does it all for free because of course, and they both are very aware of what theyre doing. its all very silly, and sometimes skagen brings over clothes that have torn apart and lovart gladly helps him fix them as well.

solvei follows along a few times but quickly leaves them alone because she sees right through their silly charade

at some point during all of their silly meetups about the sails it turns into skagen and lovart cooking dinner together one afternoon and they both end up confessing their feelings for each other, and while lovart is fixing with the food and has his back turned to him, skagen quickly gets his phone out to text solvei like "sol i think i have a boyfriend" and she immediately responds "YOU JUST NOW REALISED?? well im happy for the both of you, can you stop destroying our sails now PLEASE"

#sorry i had to get this out of my system HABDHQBFKDDBBDB #I JUST THINK ABOUT THEM SO MUCH #AAAUGJFJGKGFJFBDJHDHDHD im normal about my characters #skagen gipp #lovart sjöberg #solvei stiltje #corps.oc

same anon as the stew ask - i forgot to mention this but your tags about fat really reminded me just how much i love love love your depiction of nophica. I love the way you draw skin and fat, your drawing of ysayle (i forget if it was her or someone else but the point still stands) with acne almost made me cry with happiness when I first saw it. Please keep doing what makes you happy and I hope you can continue to find love in the act of creation. I was surprised to hear that you once got told that your work was depressing but more over I'm so happy for you that you're finally reaching a point in your creative journey that you can be proud and happy of. Thank you for sharing what you make with us.

oh yar it was pretty common in both my fanfiction and art to get told that but admittedly i do think i wasnt really drawing anything of substance besides vague sad thoughts and emotions i was having in highschool LOL

like looking back on it i cant blame people for extrapolating the Bad Emotions from the stuff i made even when the piece wasnt about that cause i was in like, a really bad spot constantly but it being the only thing i heard was definitely something people could've lighten up about cause i was also just trying to draw fanart and live in peace but even my friends from back then told me such and its like GOT DAMN (ITS REALLY FUNNY NOW)

but i am really happy to know that im at least a little more well enough that that has stopped being prominant in my art and that people get good fuzzy emotions AND IM HAPPY that i can finally make ''the art'' i want..... i can never really describe how i felt held back in a way i didnt know of back then but i really do think it was because the artists around me just never Talked or Made an effort to draw things in their art like acne and such, and since i had no way of learning about art besides by listening to big artists back then i never Thought i could do that, or i thought people wouldn't like my art if i did that that i even refused to draw features I Had (i even remember once trying to hide that i started forming acne as a teen because i was so hyperaware of being seen as unsightly on the internet for it after having smooth skin and that was rough. ROUGH) so the fact that now what i once feared of ''what if people are rude about the way i draw people'' is entirely flipped upside down to ''people really love the way i draw characters'' i think also helped me get out of my shell of insecurity with my own art and actually Enjoy drawing because i feel like i can really express something

thats a lot of rambling but what im trying to say it is from viewers like you that my art has made it where it is today and i wouldnt have developed how i have and with the love i have in creating without it so [pbs channel voice] Thank You..... im hanging this one up on my fridge as well

#im glad you like my ysayle and my nophica i need to draw both of them more ough

"Send me a character" Henry

Three people actually asked for this one (and the first got eaten) so I'm gonna answer them all here.

Just an fyi this post is very long, please excuse grammar, rambling, spelling ect

favorite thing about them

Man, where do I start?

Not to be sappy, but as far as characters go he means a lot to me. Ive talked about this before, but I was diagnosed as autistic at ten, after really struggling for a long time. As an autistic, traumatized, kid in my specific childhood situation there wasnt anywhere for me to fit in. I really, genuinely meant well, but I meant so well it was just annoying. For all my trying I could not manage a meaningful connection. Naturally, this made me a very lonely child.

As all lonley children know, when you have no friends you get to make friends with fictional characters, which I had no problem doing. However, I couldnt actually relate to any of the characters.

When it comes to character representation in media I really had never seen a character that I related to, autistic or otherwise. “Normal” characters didnt experience the struggles that were such a big part of my life, and characters portrayed as autistic had no personality outside the autism. They were all either robotic or just children. Personally, as someone who is emotional, bright, and very animated, I couldnt relate at all to the stoic, robotic, characters, and I certainly wasnt relating to an oversized toddler.

(Frankly, one of the reasons I think Henry is such an excellent rep is because CC didnt go in with the intention of making an autistic character, and therefore didnt fall into the pitfalls non-autistic creators usually do. The issues I have with the characters she intended to be autistic arent applicable to Henry, which I do have some theories about, but thats off topic. )

I could always find characters I could connect to those around me. There were characters like my mom, like my little sister or older brother. I collected books with characters who had the same name as me, I bought stories set in towns like mine, then abandoned them for the same types of towns but twenty years ago so I could pretend that in some point in time, I might have had friends.

Yes, I spent a lot of time crying in the corner and reading books under my desk.

However, when I read TID it was the first time I had ever, in my life, witnessed a character who I found both extremely relatable and incredibly cool.

An example that tends to stick with me is this scene:

It might just be a random thing, but frankly it was a pretty big deal to me. The misunderstanding of an “obvious social cue”, the pride in thinking you had read the situation right, a person that you care about being mad at you when you were trying to help them, the “why didnt they just say so?” , the awful feeling when everyone else is looped in on a thing that makes no sense? These are things that I experienced daily, now, but more so when I was young.

I’d oftend respond in situations thinking I had it right. I could go over my answer with a fine tooth comb, find no issues with it, only to be met with a negative response because I had violated a rule that I didnt know existed.

Its a terrible feeling. The people around you are so familiar with the “rules” they dont even realise they have them. They never can tell you what made your response inappropriate in this situation, but normal and fine in another. I spent so much time feeling so stupid, because I just cant figure these rules out.

The characters I watched that suck at socializing sucked because they were rude, they didnt like people, they didnt want to socailze ect ect ect, as opposed to being genuinely, agonizingly confused. Everyone else I saw, everyone I wanted to be like had this talented, this knowledge, that is abosloutley unubtainble.

When I first read that scene I finally saw something that understood that feeling. Sure, it wasnt from Henry’s point of view, but it proved the situation that felt like a special torture just for me was something other people experienced.

The general hostility from the rest of the shadowhunter world was also something I find somewhat… comforting? For me, even as talented, well adjusted, and promising as I may be, the majority of people still treat me with something from dismal to unease to downright cruelty.

Just like Henry could make amazing breakthroughs in science and still be snickered at by the rest of the world, I can make the honor roll, win competitions, excel at everything handed to me, and people still snort, poke, and call me stupid because of “basic” things I cant do. Its inevtible, and something I just cant change.

This a character that is interesting, talented, valued in society. He has an actual relationship, with someone he loves, who loves him just as much. He has layers outside of the ASD characterics, varied interests. He does get upset with people, he is passionate, good at multiple things, the lsit goes on and on.

And when I say this meant the world to little old me, it meant the world.

For the first time I was seeing a character I related to, and they werent stupid, mean, or alone.

At the moment I’m really trying to learn to not hate myself, and to love my life. Some things wont ever change, and people will likely always treat me differently. However, I am trying to teach myself that ASD Its not a bad thing. I’m not flawed, I can be successful, I can have a social life, I can have a relationship, and theres nothing about me to “fix”. Autism isnt a bad word, my diagnoses are not the end of my life, and I am still a full complete person worthy of love and respect.

Even when I was younger, and wasnt ready or able to find out how to love myself, or work on stop hating my ASD, I still reread TID again and again because of all the characters in the world I probably look up to Henry the most.

The thing is, even though its been years since I read those books, Henry is still the character I go back to to remind myself of those things.

This was a character that hated themselves just as much as hate myself, but had managed to move past that. He never “fixed” or “got rid of” the things that were difficult, the rest of the world didnt have a “oh we wont be mean” moment. He dealt with the issues ASD presents, moved past the self doubt, and was still the same character at the end of it all.

TID introduced the idea that maybe, just maybe, I could love myself, and I could be happy without destroying the things that made me me. And maybe, just maybe I wasnt as alone as I thought.

Over the years I’ve had more than my fair share of health issues, been to many specalists, and have spent my fair share of time holding back tears in a doctors office wondering if this is the end of my life.

And every time I come home I go back to a character from a goofy, vaguely trashy romance novel that came out in the early 2000s and remind myself that my life is worth it.

2. Least favorite thing about them

Clearly there's not much I dont like, but the things I do dislike stem back to how CC handles him as a character. He's one of those characters you can tell CC isn't super invested in. Theres massive potential in both him and Charlotte, and I wish that CC would just focus on them a little more.

There are so many little lines that allude to something much deeper, something that could be explored if Cassie would just do it. Talk about that romance, talk about the disabilities, talk about the way society treats them both, talk about the falling in love, talk about the disabilities, talk about the relationships with the rest of the TID cast, talk about the disabilites, talk about the grief, talk about the guilt, talk about the war, talk about what happend in the family lines, talk about it all. Oh, and talk about the disabilites Cassie. Do it.

3. favorite line:

Yeah, this is the part that took my so long to write, I had to hunt around to pick just one. So, since I got three asks, you get three lines.

“Really, how could we have been so stupid?

Well, I’m not surprised about me,” said Henry. “But honestly Charlotte, you ought to have known better.” - Clockwork Prince

“Youre marrying your fathers friend on the council? Which one?” - Clockwork Princess

“That ba-bad man," he finished, with a quick glance at Cecily who rolled her eyes... -Clockwork Princess

4. brOTP

Oh, Magnus Bane definitely. I feel like people gloss over how much they cared about eachother. Magnus was probably the first person to share any of his interests, and the first not Charlotte person who didnt instantly dismiss him. For Magnus that was the first time he had met a shadowhunter who genuinely thought outside the box. Try as he might it seems like shadowhunters just dont like Henry, whereas downworlds think hes the best.

OTP

Charlotte and Henry. They invented romance. Relationship goals. Would die for them.

nOTP

Anyone who isnt Charlotte.

random headcanon

Since this question has been asked three times you all get three headcanns:

My man is tall. And has upperbody strength. A lot of it. He might be about 0% body fat, but hes got muscle.

Several times Henry was sent to find teen Will and retrieve him from his dangerous stupidity. Will’s attempts at defiance where swiftly nixed when Henry just tossed him over his shoulder and left.

Jessamine is throwing a tantrum because she doesnt want to be out on patrol, and Will throwing a tantrum because he can? Non-issue, hell carry them both to the carriage. Charlotte said be back at midnight, they will be back at midnight, teen angst be damned.

Literally only gets stronger as he gets older.

(All yall with fucked up bodies know the more your legs dont work the more upper body strength you get. Its only logical. If youve got enough upper body strength and someone to hold onto, you can hold yourself basically upright, which works great until whoeverse holding you gets distracted and stops holding you up. Then your going down the USSR in the 90s.

Yeah, Will and his short little attention span were not the best person to hold onto.)

–

The little kids love him. I mean, come on. He has so many glittery things in his pockets. So much to do. Knows fun stories, knows funny words. Funny hair. He lets them fuck around with his pocket watches. Fun chair. Easy to climb all over. Is not talking about the boring things with some of the adults. Gives great gifts. Happy to listen to you talk, actually remembers what you said. Unbothered by everything. Christophers was clinging to him from two years old on.

–

He has two scars on his side where the automaton had grabbed him during the battle of Cadair Idris.

The Silent Brothers were really busy trying ot keep him from, you know, dying, and didnt really get to it. By the time they would have he was sick of them, took the rune and left the scar. To him its just one of many, many random scars.

8. unpopular opinion

Cassie dropped the ball big time in TLH with him.

She did for most of the TID cast, tbh. She really has to mess with characters to make the TLH storyline make sense, and as much as I do love TLH its hard to enjoy when your going “they would not do that”. Its a pretty good example of how Cassie doesnt care about all her characters equally, and is willing to toss them away in favor of the main cast. For example, she keeps Will (and usually Tessa) very in character. With some work she could have done that with the rest of the TID cast, but she really. Doesnt.

When you look at it from a TID standpoint its very clear how much she cares about each person, and which one she doesnt really give a shit about anymore. Alas, Henry is on the lower end of that spectrum, along with a bunch of other characters. Hand them over CC ill give them the love they deserve.

9. song i associate with them

Once again, got a playlist in the works, but one the one that comes to mind is Zoned Out In My Youth by Unlike Pluto. Also Ed Sheeran is a Henry x Charlotte artist. Just listen to Afterglow.

10. favorite picture of them

How do I even pick. I spent hours picking. This has been the choice of my life. It has also reminded me we need more fanart of him. Someone with talent should get on that.

Anyway, take two, couldnt pick:

(Excuse me??? They are so cute? Peak romance <3<3<3 pretty hair<3 Anyway the flower pin? The ring? The tie tack/clip? Beautiful stunning amazing I love him<3)

#there is nothing i cant elabortate on here #off topic #rambling #tsc #tid #tlh #henry fairchild #henry branwell #i could keep talking #did i cry a little bit writing the first part #you will never know #look i was a lonley kid #and an emtional person

yo hey logang member here

just wanted to lyk i actually dont care if you dislike logan, i have characters i dislike too like thats ok i just feel like this all turned into petty drama that wasnt needed 😭 i disagree with some stuff you said (like that one comment about understanding how logans parents didnt want him) but i guess i just wanted to clarify i myself dont have any true ill intent towards you i just think this whole situation is kinda stupid and wanted to clarify that so have a nice day ig- i blocked immediately because i didnt want to see more drama but here i am lmaoo

i personally like logan because he contributes to the group, keeps a level head in tough situations(like standing up for barons other victim) and can make a decision under alot of pressure (like shooting the phantom) and i think he has alot of potential but feel free to debate

hi , idk what happened but the logang has started interacting with me again. did someone make a post or did y’all js get curious? I genuinely wanna know 😣 but you guys are welcomed here !!

um but yeah I agree. thing is I never started this account to troll or start drama/discourse. the account was so that I could separate my main and sbg content and it’d be more organized. I had been posting Logan hate before hand, and a lot of ppl found my posts funny/agreed so I just continued it here. you guys just got rlly mad for no reason. I get that some of the jokes I made were a little harsh, but at the end of the day it was never that serious. I do apologize if I stressed anyone out, but this whole thing is so silly. I’m use to bigger fandoms being more aggressive, and even the sbg TikTok fandom is pretty blunt, so I didn’t think you guys would take my jokes so personally. but you live and you learn.

also I appreciate you being so kind! I understand that many ppl just blocked me bc they didn’t want to waste their energy on smth silly / js assumed it was bait content. which is totally fair! like I’ve said in other posts, I have no ill will towards anybody I’ve interacted with, regardless of how the conversation we had went down. If I’ve said smth that’s upset you, my dms are always open to chat or js tag me in a post/comment and I’ll talk with you. Sometimes I can be a bit rude, but I promise it’s not personal at all. The only person I hate is Logan fields. Not you guys. Even if your a logang member (funny y’all took a liking to that name btw 😭).

I will continue to post Logan slander, and I can’t promise that I’ll tone my content down all the way, so if that’s not for you then you’re welcomed to block me or the Logan hate tag. I use like the same 4 Logan hate tags so it’s not gonna be a sneak attack. Also even though I post logan hate, I AM ALWAYS OPEN TO DEBATING. I’m very open-minded and will change my opinion if you make a good point that I can’t refute. I just have not run into anyone who could do that yet.

okay now for the fun stuff. You said you like Logan because he contributes to the group, but I disagree. I feel like Logan has contributed least to the group. When you say “he keeps level-headed”, I feel the opposite. Logan is very shy and timid, and he gets scared very easily. Logan is very easy to persuade and intimate, which is why he got bullied in the first place. Although he stood up to Barron, he wasn’t level headed at all. He was clouded with rage (which in part has to do with the phantoms) but shows he cannot control his emotions well. In many offical arts + earlier chapters, Logan is seen crying / hesitating constantly. Yes he has a reason to be terrified, but you cannot say he is level headed. Especially compared to everyone else. I’m not sure how I feel about him being able to make decisions under pressure. I think Logan is good at analyzing situations. Thats why he was able to come up with multiple theories about the phantom world. But I feel like in order to say he makes good decisions under pressure, he’d have to actually put these decisions into action. Logan is still very hesitant though and I don’t want to base his character off of one scene, especially because I’ve talked about why I feel like that scene was a cover up and not genuine. Most of the time Logan follows the instructions and commands of others. He actually buckles under pressure imo. like when they were fighting before getting the car, Logan would’ve never mentioned he was scared if Tyler had not spoken first. He would’ve just followed everyone else due to peer pressure. Logan always acts second. I honestly believe if he had saw Aiden on the roof he would’ve never even considered using his gun because he avoids situations that have a lot of pressure and responsibility. So no, I don’t believe Logan makes good decisions under pressure. Again that’s just my opinion and I’m down to talk about it more! but if you do want to debate pls js reblog this or put another ask in bc the comment word limit is so annoying 😭

#sbg #school bus graveyard webtoon #logan hate #i hate logan fields.#logan slander #school bus graveyard #schoolbus graveyard #sbg (webtoon)#fuck logan #logan fields #pls keep asking me questions guys I love talking 🙏

ough.

I'm contemplating taking a break from tumblr, or at least from the comics side of tumblr for a bit.

these past few weeks this feeling of being... a Fraud has been eating me from the inside out. the fact of the matter is that i have only been into comics for like, just about a year at this point, which means ive only read a really small chunk so far. I've been scared of admitting that because I've been scared of being called out for acting like I've read more comics than I actually have, and i swear to god its been effecting my mental health so poorly that i am admitting it now because it literally doesnt matter. at its core this is just. internet fandom drama. and that should not be affecting me like this.

(more explanation/rambles under the cut.)

I am an extremely, very sensitive autistic guy. When I became part of this fandom it was a bit of a shock because I hadn't interacted with the internet like this in years, and comics fans are... intense. being part of such a large fandom that is so filled with anger, even when justified, has not been good for me.

My whole life I have conditioned myself to try and fit in, to copy the behaviors of those around me, and it has had lasting effects on me. I have been angry, I have been rude. I have copied the behaviors of a lot of people in this fandom and twisted them in very unhealthy ways. I hated it. Especially because when I see people doing the exact same things with different opinions about things i care about, its made me so upset. thats not healthy.

Not sure if anyone remembers the phase I had where I wouldn't shut up about how angry I was that Laura Kinney was whitewashed, but that was something that i was rightfully pissed off about but I was so obsessively angry about it that it wasnt healthy.

In general I react so strongly to people having opinuons I dont agree with simply because Im so caught up in this idea of needing to have the opinion that is "truly" correct so that everyone will accept me and like me. and if that isnt the case, if i have an opinion people i care about disagree with, i become ashamed. Yeah, I really need to work on this jn therapy. its fucked, i know.

I'm not sure what to do, because I want to continue to be an active participant in this fandom, I want to post my fanfiction and write analysis and potentially make character edits, I want to engage with comics fans so I can promote my own comic, but I need to stop this. I don't know exactly what that means yet, but for now I think I might take a break from tumblr. It won't be the first time ive done this, as those of you who knew me as a 16 year old remember, it'll probably be fairly short, but I needed to put this out here and let the people in comics fandom i know see this.

FYI: Alastor was created by Viv when she was in high school. He's not an attempt to appeal to the Onceler crowd

Bruh thats not even an excuse.

She legit could have redesigned him to not do that, since Lucifer and Charlie and Angel and Husk are a thing. He definitely was after.

She could have choosen to be more creative with it.

But NOOOoooooo crowd appeal is more important apparently.

Especially nowadays, seeing how the series has become for the past... three or more years. It also makes me miss the 2019 Hazbin days (besides... the toxic as all hell fandom 😬). It just felt like Vivziepop used to be more bright and passionate. Now- she just overworks herself a ton for crowd appeal, and seems a quite miserable if I were to be 100% honest. If she wasnt so rude and weaponizing her trauma like she did a week ago against people who were also traumatized (from generations of discrimination) by the very representation she promised to "improve", (and yet barely does so unless it benefits mostly herself.) I would genuinely feel bad for her. But Hazbin wise- she did this to herself.

Pitching Hazbin and causing herself to no longer 100% own her own ocs- by herself. When she could have made Hazbin indiependent, post poned Helluva Boss, and none of this would happened. Instead, she bit off more than she can chew, and now herself and her freinds are having to suffer for it. Helluva Boss being created while she was in the middle of pitching an entire cartoon? Also, her own fault. She keeps complaining about her workload with HB/H and such, but how can I actuallt feel bad for her if again- she did that to herself. This was supposed to be a passion project, and now its just a overworked stressed out mess that's more about profit and validation above all else. To the point where it's production is filled with artist mistreatment (of multiple people! stop with the "erin frost!" bullshit!), stress venting every few months, constantly trying to appeal to what's "hip" in adult animation (Brandon Rodgers modern family guy "adult comedy" and all) and Vivziepop just stressing the hell out of herself and effecting her own health while all anyone can do is watch as she piles herself with more and more stress.

(more on this down below...)

The series is becoming the very thing Vivziepop herself said that she was against a year or so back- a mainstream, overproduced, fame focused franchise from a big name studio (Spindlehorse) that mistreats the people it promises to help. Does this franchise even need the "indie" title anymore? It has big name actors, thousands of pieces of merchandising, hundreds of artists, and millions of dollars behind it. It might as well just be another big name studio's sellout cartoon. Studio mistreatment, overproduction, constant merchandising, and all. Its gone from " a little passion project that was made to get away from the harsh conditions of large studio production"- to a "bigger is better" capitalistic, sell out of it's former self. Sure, there's passion left, but not enough to where there's actual care for those who produce it. It's come to a point where both Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss are now as close to a "capitalism embracing, big name cartoon" that a "indie" franchise can get. A big name, capitalism embracing, money hoarding, big name cartoon. The very thing indie creators go freelance to stay away from, in the first place! Now, it takes advantage of it's "indie" label to trick freelance artists into going back into the very conditions they were trying to avoid. Truly, a depressing case of a indie creator letting both fame, fortune, and validation take control of their intentions, with their treatment of others along with it.

AKA: The Butch Hartman story. Except its being speedrun by a scene girl with a show full of suit wearing sparkledog furries.

(Not that theres anything wrong with the other details (sparkledogs are nice away from animation.) but you get the idea 😞)

#hazbin hotel #helluva boss #helluva critical #animation standards #this is becoming the spongebob of indie animation- and not in a good way...

Least favorite episode of the show?

ooooh,,, that's a hard pick

i found a lot of spike episodes lacking, like a lot of people did, since his character isn't awesome. i loved him at the beginning of the show, but the writers played into the "forgotten spike" bit in a way that makes him more embarrassing than the intended underdog. another character that had a lot of potential! (too bad i dont currently have any plans for spike. maybe he's a thestral? maybe hes still a dragon and i suck it up and figure out how mythical beasts would work? idk)

i really didn't like school episodes, as mentioned. not because they're BAD or anything, i just had less of a connection to the school six than i did the mane six

i can point out quite a few episodes i didnt really enjoy and why-

Season 1: The Ticket Master

as a first impression, it wasn't great. i understand the message the writers were trying to share, but a lot of actions taken by the characters felt off. yes, everyone can be selfish at times, but not everyone would resort to coercion

Season 1: Over a Barrel

The Apploosans never had any claim over the land. The fact that they're even settled there and generally undisturbed is generous. The lesson of "sharing" has been done before and in much less racist ways...

Season 2: (i have no complaints)

Season 3: Spike At Your Service

this is not because it's a spike episode! its because of twilight. the whole "being rude to spike" thing was a little funny at first, and made some sort of sense because twilight didnt know how to treat friends yet (not an excuse but a reason). i get she can be absorbed in her work. but this episode felt like the biggest takeoff of "useless and forgotten spike" and i dislike that characterization of him. i much preferred it, in later episodes, where he was almost treated like a third sibling. because he WAS a third sibling. and hes a baby dragon; cut him some slack

Season 4: Equestria Games

okok i know another spike episode. im just super sensitive to second-hand embarrassment and it's not enjoyable! i have to skip past the part where spike "sings" the cloudsdale anthem because it hurts so bad. otherwise good and relatable episode! acting on your instincts can feel like nothing since it was "effortless" even though you save a lot of lives! good for spike. he deserves it.

Season 5: Castle Sweet Castle

i hhhate the crystal castle i hate it i hate it

well i dont hate it. but i hate why its there. i like the table for lore reasons but the rest of the castle feels far too grandiose for twilight's reserved nature. the golden oak library was great! i loved that! and i would love it if the show gave twilight a massive library, but... crystal? right outside of ponyville? and OUTSIDE? wasnt the point of the library being near the center of town so it forced twilight to immerse herself in ponyville culture?

i hate capitalism and their love of easily manufactured cheap colorful plastic toys

Season 6: The Cart Before the Ponies

this one feels pretty ooc as well. i can see all of these events happening, but in more minor ways and subtle influences than completely taking over. i know the show needs to be blatant about their writing sometimes, which is totally fine, but it unfortunately sacrifices the writing of the featured characters.

Season 7: (i have no complaints)

Season 8: Horse Play

more second-hand embarrassment i can't stand. otherwise a pretty great episode! i love celestia episodes a lot because her character is pretty decently executed! im still not happy about them not addressing the whole alicorn thing, but as a ruler shes trying her best and thats what really counts. i also love seeing how hers and twilight's relationship developed.

Season 8: Non-Compete Clause

main example of appledash fighting and putting students in danger. this episode just rubs me the wrong way in a manner i can't find the words to describe

Season 8: Yakity Sax

i'm all for letting others enjoy what they enjoy! and i love that pinkie is given hobbies outside of baking and party planning and babysitting! but boundaries DO come first. the only issue i have with her playing is that it becomes visually physically painful due to the volume. sounding bad can be fixed and ignored, but volume is definitely something that needs to be discussed.

this is ALSO what feels like a tipping point for pinkie as well (at least in my memory) from a well-rounded fun character to the "loud funny comedic relief" with little dimension left

Season 9: She's All Yak

this one also makes me feel weird and rubs me the wrong way! the message is there and is executed fine but "teaching yona to be more pony-like" felt really really weird

Season 9: The Last Problem

i've talked more than enough about how i feel about the end of the series! it's... eeehhhh... lots of things i would change. and i am changing. i have a blog about this.

Anyway as i was SAYING before i was so RUDELY SILENCED last week:

If devils get their power from humans, if humans were wiped out, would that mean the devils will be wiped out as well? And if this is the case, is that what the death devil (calling her that for now even if fujimoto is pulling a funny one on us) wants? Does she want to cause not just the end of mankind but the end of devilkind as well, including herself? Since she is a primal fear, i bet theres no other way for her to die, and i wouldnt put it past her to Want to die. It would probably be something super poetic and honorable to her. So this extinction event might just be an elaborate suicide for her because its the only way she Can die. As long as humans fear death, she will keep coming back, and humans are never going to stop fearing death, so the only way to die would be to kill all the humans? (or get eaten by chainsaw man ig. I forgot about that part lol). Also if this is the case why did she wait until now if she had all of human history to start this?

Anyway thats what i was thinking when i read it last week, but this weeks translation is kind of different. Obviously i dont know japanese so theres a loss of information for me but based on this official translation it seems like the death devil, if thats what she is, is not working alone. Fami says shes the ‘first of the devils who will shepherd the world to the ultimate terror’, while last week the translation said something like she was the devil that was the origin of all fear. So i'm not sure what to make of this new translation rn. I mean i dont think it necessarily contradicts what i was thinking before, maybe there are a bunch of devils that follow death and are willing to die for her or want to die themselves? idfk

also.

All the evidence seems to point to her being the death devil, but IF fujimoto is pulling a fast one with us, my guess would be that she could be the pain devil as well. Pain can drive people to suicide, though the people she killed didnt seem to be in pain, even mental pain, they seemed to be more of in a trance, so take this with a grain of salt. I’ve seen people hypothesize that she is the depression or suicide devil, but I dont think that those devils would be primal. If the eternity devil or the cosmos devil are not primal i dont see how the depression devil would be primal. and i think the fear of depression would at the very base of it be a fear of emotional pain, so i feel like that would fall under pain’s jurisdiction.

The reason why i brought up the pain devil originally wasnt actually because i was thinking she was gonna be a part of the story, but was actually due to the “origin of all fear” comment that fami said in the last translation, that seems to have disappeared in this one lol so idk. At the time i was thinking that i disagree with fami/fujimoto saying (or implying?) that death is the origin of all fear (not that it would have changed the writing or that it mattered or anything, just that its my personal opinion like. Philosophically. Or whatever) The reason why i think this is, yeah it's true that when you boil down a lot of fears down to their very basics, they can be said to be derived from a fear of death. But if someone is in so much pain, death becomes a release for them. I feel like pain is almost as strong or even just as strong of a motivator as death is when people are motivated by fear. So idk! I dont know if i have a point with any of this anymore.

Anyway another question is, is this primal fear that showed up at the apartment in march of 1998, and the “great king of terror” that will descend in july of 1999 the same devil? Or are they different? And if so which one is the death devil and which one is a different primal fear?
