It's so interesting how people reacted so drastically to the criticism against the Prequels, disliking both Anakin and the Jedi while liking Obi-Wan, that Anakin and Obi-Wan managed to be basically merged into almost the exact same character.
Anakin has the "relatability factor" of being the protagonist who goes on a journey and has the flaws that are explored within the story. But he's COMPLETELY unlikable as a character, especially in AOTC (and I hear people find child actors grating in general which is a personal taste problem but caused people to dislike Anakin in TPM too). He's whiny, rude, disrespectful, awkward, unforgivably uncool, and comes with a HEFTY dose of secondhand embarrassment in nearly every scene he's in.
Obi-Wan has the "cool factor" of being the one who is the Adult most of the time who is there to showcase how far the teenaged protagonist has to go still, so he gets all of the clever quippy lines and the better fight scenes (and his actor was a little older and more seasoned which probably helped a bit). But he's not the protagonist and so his flaws are not on display and it's not his story being told at all.
TL;DR Obi-Wan is an actually likable character with redeeming entertaining traits, but Anakin had all of the character story beats and protagonist bias.
And this meant Obi-Wan got out of the Prequel Trilogy a lot easier than the rest of the characters, especially Anakin (and the other Jedi).
So then we got The Clone Wars. And TCW is a show that is much lauded for being the show that "saved" the Prequels, generally by "saving" Anakin as a character. How did they do that?
They took away all of those pesky uncomfortable qualities of Anakin's and instead just gave him all of Obi-Wan's more fun likable qualities. TCW Anakin is turned into a dudebro action hero, with tons of cool action scenes to show off just how badass he is, endless amounts of quippy dialogue so he can equal Obi-Wan in their scenes together, capable of flirting with a Queen SO WELL that she doesn't even realize he's faking it until he pulls out a lightsaber. Gone is that secondhand embarrassment, gone are the whiny moments, gone is the inability to have a cool fight scene to save his life. The awkwardness stays just enough to make him ENDEARING, but not enough to cringe at so much you want to turn off what you're watching or just fast forward to the next scene.
And this is the version of Anakin that feels more "right" to people, more true to what they anticipated in a baby Darth Vader. He's angry a lot, violent, prone to lashing out if things don't go his way, but he's also just charming and suave enough that it's mostly understandable why people around him are willing to write off his worse behavior as a momentary struggle. Gone are the tears, gone is the fear of loss being his most obvious motivator. Because THIS is how people expected a villain like Darth Vader to act in his youth.
And then you get fanon Obi-Wan. Because people hated the Jedi, rejected the warrior monks who destroyed their visions of gallant medieval knights, and created a whole new interpretation positioning the Jedi as the villains of the story in order to try to make their peace with that dissonance. But they liked Obi-Wan, and Obi-Wan CAN'T be the villain.
So how do you save him from that fate? You make him more like Anakin. He gets to keep the cool fighting abilities and the fun quippy dialogue of course, but he's now completely repressed to the point that he never told Anakin he loved him until Anakin was burning in pieces on Mustafar. Now he's someone who can barely keep himself together and regularly forgets to eat and sleep like a normal person and has to be taken care of by other people. Now he's constantly being portrayed as just as attached to Anakin as Anakin is to him, just as co-dependent as Anakin is in that relationship, just as inclined towards anger and willing to walk away from the more stuffy traditional Jedi Order so he can have the more natural, healthier domestic lifestyle he's always truly wanted and never known he could have. TCW even decided to help out here by giving Obi-Wan a love interest who is for all intents and purposes just a knock-off of Padme, his own forbidden star-crossed love story. He takes on ALL of Anakin's flaws that make Anakin so "relatable" as a character, keeps his more charming likable traits, and loses all of those things that make him a Jedi, that make him Obi-Wan Kenobi.
So now Obi-Wan and Anakin are both cool, charming, suave, silver tongued, attached, repressed, struggling against the Jedi Code. They're effectively the same person, but one of them just happens to commit genocide and the other one... doesn't. What made each of them distinct and interesting characters in their own right is washed away in order to merge them both into two copies of the One Perfect Character and who you like better at that point is probably just down to who you found more attractive or something equally banal.
And through fandom osmosis, this is what is considered their true/"canon" interpretation, regardless of how inaccurate it actually is.
#star wars#prequel trilogy#obi-wan kenobi#anakin skywalker#the phantom menace#attack of the clones#revenge of the sith#the clone wars#star wars the clone wars#tcw#swtcw#i could probably add something to this about fan reactions to the kenobi show being so polarized#because so many fans just know the fanon obi-wan who is perpetually cool and perfect and quippy#and were so taken aback when what they got instead was an obi-wan who was depressed and lost and broken down#because this wasn't THEIR obi-wan#this isn't the obi-wan who had been so likable in the prequel trilogy#who had been the only redeeming factor of those movies even#this is RUINING obi-wan because now he's NOT COOL so what's the point?#clearly deborah chow just didn't understand obi-wan or why fans liked him because he's LOSING and he's BORING#the real obi-wan would never cower before owen lars or run from a fight or struggle to use the force

I rly don’t see how ppl be 20+ shipping kids anymore tbh… like, it’s so rampant and I don’t see the appeal to it anymore being as tho I’m in my late 20’s.
#I’m grown….. it always baffles me to see it like man I don’t care I don’t find joy in it anymore since I’m not a teenager#I just look at them and think they’re like my fake son… daughter nephew niece whatever lol#give me the struggling and mentally fucked up 20+ year old give me those middle age bitches man if I’m going to like a ship now anyway#like i don’t care about the romance between kids man it sucks that this is such a huge thing in most fandom spaces#not that I participate in said spaces since ppl are annoying and embarrassing#also very nasty#sns is diff tho like that’s a whole other thing 🪽#sns is just a classic it’s legendary it transcends space and time it it-#I’m so glad that jjk is full of adults tho lmfaoo#one of Gege’s only W’s… especially impressive for a shounen#i like jjk outside of the goiji pairings too like I just genuinely enjoy it despite how awful it is now lol#again#I do think that ppl need to learn how to become more comfortable with enjoying media outside of shipping tho#like there’s nothing wrong with it obviously but I’m talking more like how tons of ppl only get into a new series for the sole purpose#of shipping instead of engaging with said media and the story that it’s trying to tell…#this is why fanon and wild insane hc’s usually get out of control too to the point where those who might be interested in checking out#a series might be deterred because they don’t even know what the show is about because the only stuff that ppl see about the thing is ship#stuff and like discourse#and the behavior of the fans…#these ppl be 30+ arguing with teenagers man it’s crazy to me#I just think there needs to be a balance lol#like still go crazy.

i was wondering why people were making it out to be such a huge thing that alastor is aroace canonically....and then i tried to think of literally any other character i've seen that's canonically aro or ace....yeah i'm coming up empty 😍
#rave ramblees#hazbin hotel#i feel like a few warrior cats characters had the makings to be aroace and then got fucked over by the plot#iirc bluestar wasn't interested in romance? and then....oakheart 😩#I know Sunny wof is ace in popular *fanon*#OH WAIT PERIDOT#who was....only confirmed aroace in second level canon#by a storyboarder....yeah#apparently lilith toh was confirmed outside of canon by the creator as aro? it wasn't really touched on in the show tho-#there's saiki k who isn't confirmed in any way#but it's so heavily implied in canon i'm just gonna take what i can get >:)#so...yeah it's literally Alastor sitting on the throne for aroace rep in canon#AND he's a tumblr sexyman#and we love him for that#suddenly seeing why this is kinda a big deal to people now#and why they're defending it so hard#because there is NOTHING ELSE in other media apparently#outside of headcanons that is-

people on twitter be normal about acht's gender (impossible)
#first i saw someone saying ''its possible its a she/they situation judging from appearance'' which. jesus fucking christ#and now i saw someone saying they felt that them wearing a dress was. out of character??????#which. is insane to me. you are aware that we barely knew anything about them as a person until now right#what the fuck are you talking about. how can them wearing a dress be out of character WE DIDNT KNOW THEIR CHARACTER!!!!!!!!!#you can feel like they'd look better in pants but saying that a dress is out of character for someone we know nothing about ???#kind of just feels like. you think nonbinary people can't wear dresses#also personality does not equal gender presentation???? no one's personality dictates whether or not they would wear a dress#unless part of their personality is ''i hate dresses and would never wear one'' or that they always dress more neutrally/masculine#which. neither of those is true for acht. as far as we know. we have seen them a total of one time (album cover) where you can only#see up from the waist. and again WE BARELY KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT THEM AS A PERSON BEFORE SIDE ORDER#idk it doesnt really matter its just bizarre to me. them wearing a dress isnt ooc you either just dont think nb people can wear dresses#or you have a made-up fanon version of acht in your head that is now going against what they've been revealed to be like in canon#i dont know. its just weird. they're just vibing man#serena.txt#splatoon

Just wanted to say thank you for the ottosuba posting you've done lately. The English speaking fandom is absolutely barren with Otto content, let alone ottosuba content. So to have someone as awesome about it as you post via Tumblr posts, fanfic, fanart, etc. on a good(-ish) website like Tumblr is like finding a diamond in the rough. Anyhow, looking forward to any future ottosuba content from you!
(｡･ω･｡)ﾉ♡
anon you made my day fr these are very high compliments T^T <3 i appreciate it a lot pfft a part of me is always like "I CANT REVEAL HOW MUCH MY BRAIN IS ROTTING OVER THESE CHARACTERS..." bc i get a little embarassed a little shy bc what if i am posting the same things too much...??? but then i simultaneously go "lol my blog my rules anyway im gonna make a gazillion billion content *clicks post*" which is how all the otto and ottosuba content gets churned out alsdflj. especially bc - like you said - the english speaking fandom is a BARREN DESERT when it comes to otto and ottosuba content T^TT ive been thinking about it lately bc they seem to be a lot more popular in the japanese speaking fandom i think, but theres next to Nothing with the english speaking fandom :o interesting difference there.
but regardless :o yeah i keep making otto and ottosuba content bc i am in Desperate need of it... its a desert and i gotta feed myself too HAH theyve always been interesting to me but in the years ive been into rezero that Interest has skyrocketed bc of all the interesting developments pfft (and also the lack of english fancontent for them HAH). i just think theyre so underrated in the english fandom.... thank you for liking my stuff anon <3 :DD
#ask#also you made me remember that ive been otto(suba) posting in like so many mediums lajdfljsl#i ended up sneaking a bit of meta into these tags oops aljsdfljsf but.#also i just think otto and ottosubas feralness is super interesting and my taste in characters totally isnt predictable (i say this as a p#five shuake fan also. cries.) but also like. people in the english speaking side of the fandom dismiss otto a lot which is interesting to m#like its u know that typical fandom tendency to sometimes only see characters for how they look on the surface. and its also interesting b#ive also been seeing a few people like. almost kind of miss how toxic ottos being in arc 8??? and also ottos general. subaru obsession#things yeah. like why do people miss this stuff??? he literally says his reason for being / existence is to oppose subaru??? what sane#person does that lajdslfjsldfj what sane person is so ride or die theyd rather leave a whole country + their bffs daughter figure to die??#what sane person manipulates all their friends in order to save them??? understandable motive but literally insane lajsdlfjsld#yeah so anyway im super curious on why english vs japanese fandom have different attitudes towards otto and ottosuba HAH#being an emilia otto AND astrea fan is so weird bc people are so kind with the astreas usually and then being an emilia fan means suffering#through all the sexism and then being an otto fan is just going “YOU GUYS WERE FOOLED BY HIS SOFT BOY AESTHETICS???” and begging people to#remember that he cares about subaru. but that goes for many emilia camp members treatment in fanon.#and also yeah being a fan of almost any character in this fandom is suffering i think alsjdfljsd#granted i was also fooled by the soft boy aesthetics but that was way back when okay. i know now. hes my silly fucked up little guy now HAH

I've been thinking about this sentence is false. So the frankenturrets all malfunction at the sentence (which in itself suggests that the turrets are AIs. Interesting implications) but Wheatley doesn't. Now this is presented as him simply being too stupid to understand the paradox but the key thing is GLaDOS also isn't affected. She does the whole 'don't think about it' thing but the point of the paradox was that AIs can't resist thinking about it and just saying 'don't think about it' wouldn't help much.
My theory: GLaDOS wasn't affected because she isn't technically an AI; she used to be human. Which could imply that Wheatley could also have been human at some point, hence him being unaffected. We don't know how the personality cores were created (as far as I'm aware - I could be wrong) and I don't think it's too much of a stretch to say their intelligence isn't completely artificial. Perhaps some of the corrupted cores could have been created when the transferral process went wrong (space core used to be an astronaut or aspiring one and I don't care if it's feasible I am accepting that into my headcanon).
TLDR: I think that personality cores are also the result of transferring human consciousness into a machine, though perhaps a more simplified version than GLaDOS that allows only certain aspects of the person to be transferred (ie. not their whole personality).
#honestly someone has almost definitely come up with this theory before me but i came up with it now so there#it could also be absolute fucking nonsense and completely contradicted in the lore or something#alas my knowledge on portal lore is not yet encyclopaedic#maybe it's accepted as fanon who knows. i only played portal for the first time last month#portal#portal 2#glados#wheatley

We are NOT the same, I say Duke wasn’t Robin bc he said he wasn’t Robin and We Are Robin was unfortunately not taken as seriously by the batfam as I would’ve liked.
YOU say Duke wasn’t Robin so you don’t have to include him in ur fanfics and fanart without feeling guilty, and u conveniently use this to also ignore the only woc in the batfam all the damn time unless it’s time for her to be a silent badass or translate ur faves emotions to whoever tf he’s talking to.
#they’ll say it’s about robins and ignore Steph too#and they only include Damian to whitewash him#diversity win! the racists ship steph and cass so it’s fine to ignore cass in favor of steph#who they ignore in favor of literally anybody else#diversity win! they ignore Duke but headcanon Jason as vaguely Latino and Tim as vaguely East Asian#which again. I don’t mind the hcs but the way y’all describe them are fucking nasty#i know why I think Jason’s Latino but I also know why YOU think he is and we’re never gonna be the same#btw i personally have an entire Opinion on whether Duke counts as Robin but that would be a whole diff post#short answer yeah and no long answer is literally going into what I think Robin is now -or what it should be after WAR#anywaysss#this is why I hate the Bruce adopts blk haired blue eyed kids thing I’m#like It’s not that deep it’s just annoying#like u are actively ignoring his nonwhite kids when u make that joke#anyways I think Damian Cass and Duke have their own lil club within the family bc white people are irritating#steph is allowed on virtue of not being fucking annoying#the steph in my mine is not just girl fanon Dick Grayson who likes purple and waffles#but NEWAYS

No actually though while I'm on a roll ranting about the funny monke show
THIS FUCKING SCENE IN PARTICULAR GETS ME SO BAD. I THINK ABOUT THIS SCENE SO OFTEN
The timing of MK's words and what we see on screen.
"I'd never abandon her when she needs me"
When MK says this, the shot is focused on Wukong, as he listens in and starts to glance back at Macaque.
LIKE WE KNOW. WE K N O W WUKONG ABANDONED MACAQUE. Those two have SOME shit going on in their past. Macaque needed Wukong, and he left him (either intentionally or unintentionally) and that left Macaque bitter and sad, and that bitterness was prolly left to rot after hundreds of years (not to mention that whatever happened between them got worse and worse and. Yknow jttw. Wukong ends up killing him.)
BUT WHAT GETS ME IS THE NEXT PART AFTERWARDS.
"We're heroes, it's what we do!"
Macaque and Wukong have ALWAYS been compared to the sun and moon. Like, canonically. Wukong calls Macaque his shadow, Macaque compares him to light-- they're opposites.
When MK talks about them being heroes, it's focused on Macaque because- well, he's NOT a hero. Not to himself, anyway. And this is brought up again and again; during his shadow plays, he specifically refers to Wukong (and MK) as "the hero". And they are! But Macaque doesn't see himself like that-- he refers to himself as "the Warrior". He doesn't feel like a hero. And this is brought up again in the s3 specials. "I'm not a hero, bud-" and "then be a warrior".
He's so used to living in everyone's shadows and being at the bottom of the barrel-- he's got a "worse version of Wukong's powers" (in Wukong's own words), he's revived by LBD only to be forced to do her dirty work, he's punished when he doesn't fall in line with her- he loses no matter what.
AND LBD SAYS IT HERSELF.
As soon as Macaque was given the chance (or, a "breath of new life") he tries to fuck off and do his own thing! He tries to stay far away from everything else.
But he doesn't get to.
He's threatened and shoved down into the dirt again and again and again and it's no wonder he was so desperate in s3e8-10. He tries to freak Tang out, tries to compare them to each other, but it backfires. LBD immediately tries to off him, but he desperately screams at her about a weapon MK and the others are planning to use- he doesn't care that he's giving her information, he just doesn't want to DIE. He begs MK and everyone else to stand down, that he just wants to take the Samadhi Fire and leave. He sounds just so DONE with it all during that scene. And when Tang does finish the ritual and the Samadhi Fire is reawakened-- what does it do?
It gets rid of LBD's hold on Macaque. He's no longer being trapped in crystal.
And he says, all happy, "it worked!"
You see the same thing in s3e8. After Tang tells him "don't you see the Samadhi Fire is our only way of helping humanity?"
Macaque tells him, "the Samadhi Fire is MY only chance at getting far away from the Lady Bone Demon"
He never wanted to help her. All he wanted to do was get away from her. He never intended to give her the Samadhi Fire, the rings-- nothing.
He's selfish, and honestly, who can blame him? Given everything we know about him, he owes everyone here nothing. He doesn't want to help them, he doesn't want to help or listen to WUKONG, who (again, either intentionally or unintentionally) abandoned him and later killed him, he doesn't even want to rlly hurt MK that much ("stand down, or I will PUT you down" implies that he doesn't want to fight him if he doesn't have to, but at this point he's so desperate for his own survival that he will if MK won't get out of his way).
Macaque doesn't see himself as a hero because he can't identify himself with that kind of title.
Just.
This scene, man. There's so much behind it.
#Lmk#Lego monkie kid#Monkie Kid#I think there's the often characterization that Macaque is just an asshole and finds joy in fucking with them and that's just...#Not how I see it#I think?#Like.#Hm.#I'll avoid talking about jttw until I actually get the books and read them but for now#LBD revealed to us in s3 that Mac's only alive bc she brought him back in order to help her uj#Perfect the world or whatever#Nonsense like that#And then went off about 'with the first breath of a new life he reveled against fate'#The moment he got to live on his own he immediately looked off from her and abandoned ship#Ig the first thing on his mind was to get back at Wukong?#Which like. Fair ig. Given what we know about their backstory he definitely resents him#Adding that I think the Fanon idea/what the show might be hitting towards for the two of them is so dramatic but#But the original Canon.#Was just.#Macaque fucking around and finding out

eh this is what I get for taking so long to finish a project
(rip that Dark Core Day video project from like two years ago now that has Chiyo's art and voice, which is now outdated, I guess. But that's just how sso is)
#/sso#I also just like... don't care?#like when I first played the games it was 3 Dark Generals#then it was surprise there are 4 dark riders and the 4th is Elise#but no we're not going to add her to the game anytime soon#now this is what she looks like and also a name change#now she's got a new look (except it's all just concept art anyway sO) and a new new name#I don't know how I'm supposed to care about a part of the Main Villain Squad who has yet to appear in game#and who doesn't even match name wise to what I heard that one time like ten years ago#I only know about her designs and name changes because of social media and that's honestly not a huge group of people#most people don't follow outside sources for their games they just... play the game and that's it#anyway as far as I'm concerned Elise Chiyo Whatever her name is going to be doesn't exist and never will#at least not in my fanon and fics#the whole 'sso changes lore every other year' thing as well as like#what am I supposed to wait 25 years for the story to be complete before I write anything? no thanks#don't mind me I'm talking#OH also I did the voice acting for her since it was my own video project#did voice acting for all the dark riders#not to confuse people and make folks think there were like files for her voice

I still can't believe out of everyone and everything that could have gotten rid of the loophole in Angel's curse, it was Illyria (strongly hinted at the very end of the season 12 comics). Just goes to show how the Powers That Be don't care about their champions, and are really kind of evil (though we already knew that). And they were probably keeping the loophole on purpose, thinking that if it wasn't there he and Buffy would just run off and be happy together instead of fighting for them, the bastards.
#buffy the vampire slayer#angel#bangel#buffy comics#buffy season 12#buffy the vampire slayer comics#buffy the vampire slayer season 12#but this has gotten me thinking 'could only someone in the series who was a god. or had god-like powers. get rid of the loophole then?'#and making me want to write some different aus now. like part of me is now wondering if maybe in the future dawn could have somehow gotten#rid of it. as she was the key connected to the goddess glory. and in the comics she stars figuring out how to use her powers and stuff#there are some ideas here for fanfiction#especially since usually in fanfiction that gets rid of it it's usually willow (maybe with tara helping her. sometimes buffy's blood being#involved)#which i GET. but the idea that it was illyria opens some other doors in fanon maybe#and how i wish more 'canon' things would explore it. and bangel in general again. looking at you boom#but you know the god thing kind of does make sense because there's also how buffy and angel have sex in s8 when they're both gods and that#doesn't trigger the curse. either because angel's technically not a vampire with a cursed soul there he's a god and/or they keep the curse#(probably he does) keep the curse being triggered with their powers or something#but back to the dawn thing: as silly as this no doubt is. there's a part of me that wants to write her just portaling the loophole away whe#she discovers her portal powers. lol. i don't think anyone's ever done anything like that before#but i bring this all up because i just read this one really well-written fic where illyria got rid of the loophole#which got me thinking about how she's the one to do so in canon#and then about the loophole in general

#been in the fandom for about 1.5 years now#have known (about) jos verstappen since before max was born#still don't know where this persistent idea that he's a homophobe comes from#not to start disk horse but really going 🤔🤔🤔#schumi affectionately called him 'my tomato' once on tv and i couldn't detect any 'no homo' vibes#that's the only evidence I have against that fanon/theory#but i also have yet to see any evidence for it you know

seeing a take so bad you have to put down your phone and have an in-depth analysis of the media in your head to make sure you dont agree with a crumb of their bullshit
#im actually SEETHING with rage right now#you don't know what the fuck you're talking about#how do you get NONE of the ships right not ONE#“in a nutshell” just say you only consumed one piece of fanon media and based your whole opinion on it#please delete your post its hurting my eyes to see how wrong you are#that you dont have a crumb of media literacy

marvel should hire me to write bc i'd pull the funniest thing on earth where i am wiping his catholic slate CLEAN and i would explcitily have him go ehhhh i've never really been religious me and my dad went some easters and christmases and attended a few services outside of that but that stopped by the time i was around 10 and my dad just kinda gave up on it because he didn't particularly want to go by that point either. and even then we hadn't gone every year for easter and christmas in that time frame. and then we never bring that shit up again in the story. he is only catholic in the sense he went a few times and it's the only church experience he knew and his dad probably grew up going to church more in his youth being dragged in by his family but he never felt particularly compelled to go back to it once he moved out on his own. catholic only in the fact that his family was irish catholic but his dad is a lapsed catholic who did not give a fuuuuuck
#based off my own father's filipino catholic experiences. and my own religious experiences in general. bc my mom's protestant but still didnt#raise me religiously. i've been to church a handful of times and it was never bad but it never ever stuck. i just kinda remember some stuff#and what i do know it's more from the general cultural osmosis of american christianity than anything#plus i grew up in a known for its religiosity suburb. but again. that still didnt really rub off on me.#in my mind jack is a guy who when entering a church will still dip his fingers in the holy water and cross with it#and matt watches and maybe mimics but he doesnt really get it still bc their service attendance has been so extremely infrequent.#so i imagine it's far more like that for matt than the insane bs they've been pullin the last few years. given the you know.#50 somethings years of established only really culturally casually catholic matt. bc well. why wouldnt he be new york irish catholic.#i imagine is the thought process. but i will never be a fan of how it's a big deal now. bc it just never has been. ever#and that's not to say a character cannot become religious or be religious or have it become more of a thing in their life!#very much it can be done. but i think it's been done piss poor. from all i've seen and what i've read of recent stuff. so it's just bad.#like it isnt done in a meaningfully way or sensical to my understanding. it's like. pure show pandering fanon appeal.#so it's utterly meaningless as a whole with no point or purpose aside from it#can we go back to just using it for cool art visuals bc i think we can all appreciate a cool splash page of a church fight and stuff#but please. dont try to make it more than that if you arent going to do it well#SORRY I KNOW EVERYONE ON PLANET DD HAS MADE THIS POST BUT I REMEMBER AND GET SOOOOO IRRITATED!!!!! IT'S SO STUPID POINTLESS DUMB I HATE ITT#static.soundz

"the characters only have like 4 traits and are super boring" girl i think you're just ignoring all their depth by refusing to engage with them beyond the surface level text
#there's an artist i like whose blog i went on and saw some atrocious takes. very unfortunate. their art is good but anything else is 😐#they also complained abt the story being bad and at this point i have to wonder why you even make art for smth you like nothing about?#great embodiment of fanon rotting someone's brain. at least they admit they just prefer what fans did with the source#i don't like calling mostly harmless things cringe but this is not only annoying but also a lack of critical thinking imo. so just this once#wow that's cringe! i don't get you at all! there is so much media out there! go read that!#i actually thought to go check if they posted anything recently bc I'm reading a fic they wrote#and ngl guys it's kinda ooc. which. ig now i know why. but until it becomes too much I'll stick with it for the smut#anyway yeah rant over <3 sorry i just had to let it out <3 like i said it's mostly harmless. but it IS annoying

I feel like life series fanon jimmy is kind of mischaracterized and there’s an easy way to make sure you’re doing it right: he has a lot of unearned confidence
#the tags is where I’m going to ACTUALLY say stuff LOL!!!#but like I love life series Jimmy mkay. he’s got that curse of dying first and all. which is what I mean by fanon cuz curses aren’t real#but a lot of fans make it like Jimmy accepts the curse? or even acknowledges that it’s real. which bugs me a bit cuz No He Does Not#(side note tho. I’m not mad about it. I know ppl wanna explore the concept of someone cursed to die first and that’s what they’re doing)#but like Jimmy would just be so in denial about it okay. even if you managed to convince him he would be like ‘..BUT SURELY THIS TIME’#and this relates to ranchers too. I love ranchers ok. mostly cuz my sister does tbh LMAOO she loves them. but ranchers fan content isn’t#what I’m looking for cuz it’s so often stuff like.. Jimmy being like ‘I’m sorry I’m cursed’ and Tango being like ‘it’s ok love u anyway’#but it’s really more like ‘CURSED?? NO! WE WILL WIN!’ which I think is MORE fun for the aftermath of their death. meeting in the afterlife.#I NEED to see ranchers content where they keep denying that the curse is real then Jimmy dies and they’re ghosts or whatever and Jimmy’s#like ‘oh no. we didn’t break the curse. tango probably hates me now. he only liked me cuz we thought the curse wasn’t real.’ and tango to be#like upset at first as anyone would be when they die. but then he like notices the way Jimmy is acting and he’s like ‘no.. ranchers 4 life’#???? what am I saying. hire me for writing fanfic I totally know what I’m doing.#anyways what I’m saying is Jimmy is the canary but he’s the canary that’s like ‘SURELY I can sing for the miners the whole way THIS time’#he is NOT the canary who says ‘WELL time to eventually stop singing in this cave’#HOWEVER I do think that although he has loads of unearned confidence and is in a constant state of denial. he does also have that crumble#sometimes. so it’s not totally ooc imo for him to act like that. but it would be rare moments and also mostly post death#ANOTHER SIDE NOTE I WANNA SAY. I HATE the way I’m saying this as if it’s fact. it’s my personal analysis and just because I think it’s right#doesn’t mean I want to present it as undeniable fact. I could be misinterpreting. if you want to interpret life!Jimmy’s character different#then go on ahead. I don’t hate fanon Jimmy I just wish I saw more like how I see him. that is all.#ok I lied I also wanna add that I’m bad at explaining things ESPECIALLY personalities so it’s possible that I didn’t convey what I wanted to#say properly too. sorry. OKAY NOW THAT IS ALL.
