ITS ME, MAMMON 💚🃏
This man reeks of insecure corporate shame
A psychology theory…
Tumblr media
“And I’ll be like a stepdad, who will love you, when it’s convenient!!”
Tumblr media
It all really started for him in LooLoo Land, the-legally distinct-knockoff of Lucifers more successful Lulu World that reeks of insecure corporate shame.
When he said
“I raised you like the son I didn’t want!”
He was fucking lying his clowny ass off because he wanted a son even more than Fizz wanted a father of his own and Mam has not shut up about his father-son delusion for almost twenty goddamn years
The second image above, and all of the symbolism around it is the foundation of Mammons character and psychology. No really. This was not the introduction of Fizzarolli, it was the introduction of Mammon wearing Fizzi as his face. Vibe checked by a jaded 17 year old owl goth girl who can see through her own pathetic dads fake bullshit. This scene was the foreshadowing of the Musical Special. Everything from the green spotlight on Fizzi, the nasty personality of the robot which was closer to Mammons than Fizzarolli’s. Lots of symbolism. Especially the ripped off reference to Hazbin Hotels “I have a dream” song lyric. Has possible symbolism. I’m actually deeply disappointed the ep didn’t make a single call back to LooLoo Land at all. And Blitz was right there and wasted potential :(
Tumblr media
Shown is a Fizzbot ‘Fizzi’ compared to his ‘dad’ mammon ahh like father like son as they say. Blech. Everybody loves Fizz, does anybody love you, Mammon? (Me, I do❤️)
Tumblr media
So I’m going to get it out of the way and say it, Mammon is giving Leviathan a run for his money (haha money, get it?) because his envy and idolisation of his BFF Lucifer is so great that he’s trying to find his “very own pride and joy”, his own theme park, his own grand circus and adoring fans, and his own wholesome musical child knock-off of Lucifers more popular Charlie Morningstar.
He saw this
Tumblr media
And he thought….
Aw, he so sad here :c Just do this one thing, for him x he’s just a giant evil baby man with four arms and eight eyes
He doesn’t really want a daughter though, he feels like he’d relate better to a (marketable) son. And I think that’s the real reason he made the comment about women not being considered the same way adults werent considered, only implings who want to grow up to be like him. (creepy..! I think that’s what tipped Blitzo off also poor Wally (another orphan like Fizz?) Wally didn’t make the cut 😢 YEET.
Tumblr media
Anyway-His whole dream is being a father and son taking on the world to grow his empire. As long as he steals all the fortune. He must be insecure and full of shame if he wants someone to be his “new face” every year, if you really think about it. If the kid same is the gender as him and therefore a bit more like his own face in that sense, he’s not copying Lucifers daughter cause he has a son. It’s different and not the same at all.
But seriously it really shocked me when he started talking about being like a stepdad, and he was genuinely excited about it too? But this man doesn’t even know he wants to be a father and he’s probably never felt love before in his life. I guarantee this was a first sight “wow this kid kinda looks like me and he has the same innocent look in his eyes as Charlie, he’s mine now”
“I GAVE YOU EVERYTHING”
Tumblr media
This for me. Made as big an impact as Oz saying he loves Fizz. It was very shocking. The opposite of greed is giving, and giving something to somebody is probably a massive fucking deal to Mam and I’d bet he doesn’t even know himself why he gave fizz so much attention
He also doesn’t kill Fizz? He SCREAMS at him, uses big intimidation tactics, sure, but didn’t actually lay a hand on him if you really look? He was fine with being uncomfortably physical and even violent before to him but isn’t now? (Fizz is forever so badass for this moment btw) How strange is that. This whole thing reeks of ‘scorned father’
Tumblr media
Like he’s happy to keep exploiting Fizz but also just as fine in replacing him, even happy to see him possibly fail. So he really has no reason to be this possessive and attached. But he is. Oz says the song is about him and Fizz literally calls his name out and Mammon still ALLOWS him to finish his song he genuinely really enjoyed the song, he allowed him to make his speech, but only intervenes when he quits.
Tumblr media
Why, because he wants the crowd to “love” him it’s very important to him - the money they give him is what he thinks love is. There is so many dads out there who respond to abuse allegations with “but I put a roof over their head and provide security” This is abusive father 101. I guess it could be just because Fizz is beloved by the masses, profitable, sure. But what if it’s because he feels the same way the crowd does about fizz, and doesn’t comprehend why? He clearly loves watching his performances. Even the diss track against him. Priorities.
It is just an extremely interesting concept to me if Mam is trying to copy Lucifers family, but the best thing he can come up with is a Brand Figure to be his “legacy” Capitalists man. He doesn’t understand what love is. But wants it. Wants to buy it. But it’s never enough.
“You are practically in my image”
Is literally another dad thing and to be more dramatic about this it’s the same thing we hear that ‘God made you in his image’ could this be setting up the theme of the show? Honestly my one criticism is that there’s enough sexual relationships in this show there didn’t need to be implications of him sexually interested in the guy he literally sees as his kid. A twisted boss/father story about a deeply lonely orphan clown child and a deeply lonely capitalistic clown spider over-idolising each other and entering an abusive family/work dynamic due to both of their tragic nativité and ignorance about love, is already a very mature story. It’s a 9/10 story but if Fizz and Blitz (an excellent way to incorporate him in the story) talked a bit about Fizz’s orphan status at the circus making him feel like there was always something missing, something Blitz had but he never did, it would have been 10/10.

you're the only sp writer i request from you're literally my fav 😢😢 but can i request stan kyle and kenny with a reader who gets jealous really easily??
reader who is easily jealous
an, HI OMG THIS IS SO SWEET ILY ANON ☹️☹️🫶🫶 18-19
kyle
okay kyle didn't know you were the type to get easily jealous, i mean he js thought you didn't really care and kinda let him roll with whoever he wants but thats probably because he hangs out with girls who are in the same cliques as you so,,
it was until you literally glared at the waitress who stared at him for one too many seconds he knew, you ended up having a bad mood throughout the whole meal and eyeing the waitress "baby r you okay?" "why? if im not are you going to leave me for that stupid waitress?" "WHAT NO???"
theres always two reasons why you're so quiet on a date, kyle was too friendly with a girl or a girl was too friendly with him. you ignore him roll your eyes at him and he's just begging you to give him an ounce of attention.
if a girl likes his story you literally stalk her, her mom, her brother, her father, her boss, her colleagues everything.
you continue to ignore that girl for weeks and roll your eyes at her whenever you see her around cz why u liking my mans story? keep your likes baby
he finds it so hot tbh like omg ur this obsessive with me?? 🤭 he gets turned on by this for sure.
even though he finds it attractive and it gets him all sweaty he needs to he careful because you weren't easy to persuade once your jealous fr. once he had to get down on his knees, crying out to you to please look at him. he loves you though and he'd do it again
a thud was heard from your window, then another, and another. it was annoying you so you open your curtains to see what was causing the noise, it was your boyfriend. you opened up your window sticking out half of your body out of the window, "kyle?" you yell, "please unblock me, i dont know why she follows and likes all my post i swear" he yells back. you smile to yourself at how desperate this man is "what if i dont want to?" you put your hands in the frame of the window smiling "um,, I haven't really thought about it" "oh bye then" "wait wait!" he called out and you turn back from walking away. "I'll uh.. I'll freeze myself!" your eyes upon widen at his dumb idea "what no you idiot" he takes off his jacket, gloves and hands then put it on the ground, he then kneels clasp his hands together "please?" "omg." you rub your temples together and rush down. kyle sighs thinking you left him, looking at the ground of shame because now the neighbors think he got another girl pregnant or something. the front door open and he flung his head to its direction, you walked out with your own coat wrapping it around him "you can beg all you want but there's a way to do it without hurting yourself" "anything to make you happy" "I'm not" he chuckles as you drag him inside "don't do that again" "hmm we'll see" "kyle brofloski!" he chuckles again at you while you bring him up to your room, he really loves you.
kenny
LOVES IT SO FUCKING MYCH 😝😝😝
its like he knows you love him because you'll isolate yourself just because a girl winked at him and won't see him until he begs for forgiveness even though it aint his fault
okay that kinda sounds like a redflag,, WTV WALK HIM LIKE A DOG IG 🤭
anyways, he doesn't hate it dont care if it interferes his life. even if he has to give up everything to make you talk to him he'll do it IM NOT JOKING
he does not care, he has to block all the girls he knows? okay! never talk to any of his girl friends? yea sure! breath only your air and not lay his eyes on a single woman except you only? anything you want babe ☺️
ALSO GETS HARD FOR THIS PLEASE. i js know he's turned on after you get visually jealous.
"please baby look at me" he pulls your arm for you to stop your tracks from going into your room "shut up, maybe you should go to that hoe who waved at you, why did she wink?? did you two used to have something??" you pull back your arm and go up the stairs with kenny following in suit. arriving infront of your bedroom kenny pulled your arm again and when you turned he immediately fall to his knees "please, i dont know her" he hold your palm with both hands, glossy eyed "i,, kenny" "please?" tilting his head to the side, he'll sit there for hours if he has to. "get up mccormick, im sorry i overreacted" he got up so quickly then hugged you, his head falling on your shoulder "loveyou" his breath on your shoulder, you smile "love you too"
stan
i think he has a love hate relationship with your jealousy, like on one hand he knows you love him and would literally kill anyone for him but on the other... its kinda tiring to beg to you
i mean he doesn't care going on his knees, and crawling all fours for you but at times he just can't deal with it yk??
but he mostly loves it obvi, the way your eyes stay focus on the girl that was 'hitting' on him or the way you sulk and won't tell him why even though its obvious it's bc your jealous, its all so cute to him. and he loves this side of your jealousy, just couples being couple
other times though.. you'd block gim everywhere and won't unblock him until the next day when you reflect on your stupid decisions. or when you ignore him at school or not even make eyecontact with him, he hates and loves it.
you had another quarrel with stan again, this fight was because he still comments '☺️' under Wendy's post of herself, it was valid true but you still thought you overreacted. sitting on your bed with your arms cross and tears almost falling down at the thought of Stan going back to wendy broke your heart. ding a notification popped up and you pick up your phone hoping it was stan despite you blocking him everywhere, it was your friend "um, whats up with stan?" she texted you "wdym" your eyebrows furrow together, you immediately unblock him on Instagram and to your surprise his profile picture was you, his stories had 8 pictures of you with cute songs behind it. he had posted 2 picture of you two on his feed one captioning "traveling the moon and back to find good internet to see if her blocking me was a mistake or im a mistake". his bio was now "tell her to unblock me ☹️". you smile at this and your cheeks turned a pink tint. you unblocked him on every platform and it seems he had changed his profile picture to you on every single one. "." "BABE YOU UNBLOCKED ME" "i mean yeah i have to especially since i have 5 people texting me about your profile" "just wanted to show my girlfriend love" "whatever" a knock was heard on your door, then a chat from stan "open up i brought food and wine" you smile and blush to yourself as your rush down to open the door. he was the sweetest

"With What Time We Have Left"
Tumblr media
Pairing(s): kyojuro rengoku x reader
Synopsis/Request :Hi it's me again. Seriously I was beginning to wonder why u disappeared 😢. Enywho can you ignore my recent request and maybe do a kyojuro x reader where reader and him aren't officially a 'couple' (like their still hiding their feelings) but are close friends. Things go fine except that reader finds out she has a heart problem but doesn't tell kyojuro not wanting to burden him. Kyojuro is unaware until he finds ( maybe by mitsuri or Shinobu) out why reader has been avoiding him (heart problem). Then of course our fire baby tells her that he will love her even with a bad heart. Thank you and don't stress urself 💕💕
Genre: angst ->fluff
Warning(s): implied upcoming death, mentions of terminal illness
Kao's Note(s): heyoooo! i love how you're always comin back for requests!💗💗 thank you for your support, and everyone else too! my update schedule is pretty much nonexistent, so thank you for being patient with me! i hope you enjoy!
Tumblr media
like i've mentioned before in regards to pining kyojuro, he's so doting and thoughtful
he's always the one who wakes you up, if you're not a morning person. kyojuro will come barreling into your room, sliding your door open with a rumbling, "RISE AND SHINE AND GOOD MORNING TO YOU, Y/N!"
kyojuro will only laugh as you groan before swiftly dodging a pillow your hurled towards him, "too loud and too early..." and you turned over, covering your head with the blanket
the bright hashira merely stepped in your room, sitting by your blanket covered head, "come now, y/n! look," he gently pulled the blanket up slightly before sliding an onigiri underneath. "i brought breakfast for you!"
you swiftly grabbed the onigiri from kyojuro and sat up; the blanket slid off your head, revealing your disheveled bed head as you tiredly chewed the onigiri
"thmmnk you, kyo," you murmured with a mouth full of food before swallowing it. "and good morning."
if you are a morning person, his greeting will be the same: loud, cheerful, and wall shaking. that's just how he is in the morning, except, this time, you match his cheerfulness, "hello, kyo! and good morning to you too!" then, you'd both head down for breakfast with the other hashira and slayers, happily chatting with each other along the way
everyone could tell you were pining for each other
even giyu and master kagaya, one who is extremely horrible at picking up social ques and one who can't even see
the signs are all there: the longing looks you give one another when the other isn't looking, the way kyojuro is always throwing compliments your way, and always touching you in some form(whether that's his shoulder brushing yours when you stand beside each other or an arm wrapped around you during missions for "protection")
it wasn't hard to tell the flame breather was undeniably in love with you
and you weren't any better
the way you sought out kyojuro before anyone else when you needed help, not to mention you know exactly how he prefers his bento boxes before missions and are more than happy to make it for him, or your subtle tugs on his haori whenever you wished for his attention(which he was more than happy to give you)
you were hopelessly in love as well, and rightfully so
if kyojuro were to ever shed tears in front of anyone, it would be—and has been—you.
it was a night where he returned from visiting his father and his little brother, and the former had been in his usual drunken, raging self. but tonight, his words seemed much more hurtful than previous nights
like usual, kyojuro kept his smile for the sake of others, but once he reached the sanctity of his room the tears couldn't stop
you didn't mean to find him in such a sad, vulnerability state, as you only meant to stop to wish him a good night like any other night
but he was grateful it was you of all people, and you held him for hours on end until he went to sleep
not long after that, you had planned on confessing your feelings for kyojuro
you were sure he harbored the same feeling towards you, so you were feeling rather giddy about your confession
until one morning...
you had woken up with a small, sharp pain shooting through the left side of your chest. clutching your chest in pain, your eyebrows furrowed when it was gone as soon as it appeared
it was gone for the rest of the day, so you thought nothing of it
but the pain would shoot through your chest in little bursts before subsiding for the remainder of the day. they'd come first thing in the morning, and later in the afternoon
they never lasted long, so you never really paid it any mind
but as you continued to carry out more missions or train using your total consideration breathing, the pains in your chest began to last much longer
kyojuro is very perspective—especially towards you—and he was quick to take of any subtle changes
the way you began to take quick, short breathes, your shirt–right where your heart resides–is bunched up due to your constant clutching in that area, and the way your brows were furrowed in constant discomfort throughout the day
"y/n," kyojuro called to you one morning, quick to voice his opinion and concerns. "is there something the matter?"
you waved it off, "i'm sure it's just the curry i ate earlier," you smiled, covering up the pain in your chest once more. "it is spicy, you know! i'm sure it'll pass."
kyojuro's lips pressed into a thin line
what you're saying is plausible, of course, but he firmly believes there's somethin else going one. you have been a bit more curry lately...
albeit with heavy doubt, the flame hashira chose to let it go, but he vowed to keep a close eye on you
"thank you, kyo," you proclaimed in gratitude, a broad grin spread across your face as you gave him a thumbs up. "you're always looking out for me!"
he laughed, "of course i do!" it's because i love you, he wanted so badly to say
it wasn't until you were accompanying kyojuro on a mission, did it feel like you took a turn for the worst
the demons you were currently fighting weren't strong by any means, you're both certain any ranked slayer could beat them
but what they lack in strength, they definitely make up for in numbers; that made them out to be worthy opponents without a doubt
as the battle came to an end, and the final demon fell, you and kyojuro ceased your movements. scanning the area in silence searching for anymore lingering demons; you both lowered you blades once you found there were none
"are you alright, kyo?" you quickly made your way to him, examining him closely for any injuries. to which he gave a boisterous laugh, "i am just fine," he eased your worries. "how about you–"
he was cut off by you letting put a painful cry, clutching your chest, kneeling to the ground in pain. "y/n!" kyojuro quickly kneeled next to you, supporting your body against his. "what is wrong?? are you injured?!"
his eyes frantic scanned over your open haori, searching for any blood on your uniform. though he was confused when he found none.
"d-don't...don't worry," you placed a gentle hand on kyojuro's shoulder, giving it a comforting squeeze. "i'm alright. i think," you inhaled a shaky breath. "i think i just over did it a little."
kyojuro wrapped a supporting arm around your shoulders, "are you sure? i think you–" you gently rested your palm on the flame hashira's cheek, cutting him off with the best smile you could muster.
"i'm fine, kyojuro."
you put on a brave face for kyojuro in the moment, but you knew...you knew were completely not fine.
after returning from your joint mission, you and kyojuro parted ways. the flame hashira was adamant about remaining with you, wanting to keep you in his field of vision, but it was a challenge to get him to leave you be
"kyo, i can assure you, i'm fine," you let out a sigh as he continued to trail behind you. he persisted, "y/n," he sped up until he was in front of you, placing he hands onto your shoulders, keeping you in place. "something does not seem right. you are sure–undeniably sure–that you feel alright?"
it was difficult
the strength of kyojuro's gaze weighed heavily on you, and it was difficult not to cave beneath it. you held your ground and lightly placed your hands over his, "kyo, i feel just fine." his eyebrows furrowed, "but–"
"no buts," you gingerly removed his hands from your shoulders, sending a smile his way. "i appreciate your concern, truly kyo, but you don't have to worry." you gave a ligh laugh before pivoting on your heels and tugging at you uniform, "now, i'll see you later. i'm going to go clean off this dirt from our mission."
all kyojuro could do is stare after you, a subtle frown tugging down the corners of his mouth
Tumblr media
as you disappeared around the corner, you quickly changed your route and made a beeline to shinobu's estate.
for as long as you could remember, you had always had complications with your heart. unfortunately, money was practically nonexistent within your family, so you were never able to obtain an answer to your problem.
your late father had frequent chest pains as well, so you were at least certaint it was hereditary. you and your mother were certain that was the cause of his death, but the cure was unknown, if it even existed.
the smile that you flashed to kyojuro had been wiped away as soon as you turned away from him. the fabric of your uniform that covered your chest was tightly clutched tightly into your shaking fist.
your balance was off, staggering as you continued your trek to shinobu. the burning pain exploded across your chest, your breath became ragged due to longer breaths causing more pain.
you knew something was wrong.
upon arrival, you were greeted by a bowing aoi, "good afternoon, l/n."
"how many times must i tell you," you took in a sharp breath, causing the girl to instantly raise her head and rushed over to help you. "c-call me y/n."
"come," she said sternly, disregarding your statement. "i will take you to lady shinobu."
"thank you," you smiled weakly. "i was just on my way there."
aoi admired you greatly. you were so strong in her eyes, and the eyes of others, so witnessing you experience such great pain brought a frown to her lips. after watching you effortlessly support others for years, it was hard watching you be the one who was in need of the same support.
but she was happy to offer it to you.
you both neared an examination room, and she aoi sat you down in a haste. "i'll go fetch lady shinobu. i promise to be quick."
she quickly scurried off to find shinobu, not wanting to leave you in this state much longer.
the pain in your chest subsided slightly, allowing you to breathe normally for the time being. a frown tugged your lips downward, remembering these same events happening to your late father.
"oh my," a sudden voice appeared. "aoi was right; you do seem to be in a lot of pain."
you smiled weakly at the insect hashira with a confirming nod, "that, i am. but i do not know why."
shinobu was quick to examine you. placing her hand against your chest, shinobu's eyebrows furrowed at the level of arrhythmia(irregular heartbeat) she felt from your chest. she didn't even need any equipment; she could feel it, and that raised many concerns for her.
she asked for other symptoms you have experienced, and you listed them off: shortness of breath, severe chest pain, nearly painful heartbeat, and irregular heartbeats. total concentration breathing even became excruciating.
"y/n," shinobu looked at you carefully. "has anyone in your family have similarly issues."
"yes," you nodded. "my father did."
she frowned, "you most likely have familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. it is a disease that thickens part, or all, of the muscle in the heart." she placed her hand back on your chest, feeling your heartbeat once more. "because you the muscles have thickened so much, it causes your heart to beat much quicker than it should."
"o-oh..." your shoulders dropped as an inquisitive frown took over your features. "i suppose that explains my erratic heartbeat and the pain." shinobu nodded.
"yes, and your shortness of breath, it is due to your left ventricle having less room to hold blood."
mulling over the information you'd received, you connected the dots to your father's sudden death.
"i suppose...that explains why my father's death was so sudden." shinobu solemnly nodded.
"yes, but with you being in such great physical shape, i say you can still live a considerably long life."
"so...there is no cure then." by the way she tried to keep you in a positive mindset, you already knew the answer.
her solemn silence confirmed it.
"all i can do is provide you with this salve," she handed you a small wooden tub. "it will lessen you pain greatly, but...your demon slayer duties must come to an end."
you didn't like that, not at all.
there were people to protect, and not a lot of demon slayers to provide said protection. but...what could you do? the strenuous movement, training, and breathing would only worsen your condition. all you could do was give an understanding nod.
"i understand...th-thank you, kocho."
----
it's only been a few days since your examination, but that's all it took for a certain flame hashira to know something was amiss.
you hadn't accompanied him on any missions, nor have you took on any of your own. no one seemed to more devoted to aiding others than you, so when he heard from a certain medic that your demon slayer days were behind you, he couldn't help but let our a hearty laugh.
"you know how to jest, shinobu!" his shoulders bounced has he laughed before calming down. "now, where is y/n? and please, no jokes this time! i would appreciate a true answer!"
"i'm afraid i am telling the truth, rengoku-san." shinobu answered mournfully as she was wrapping a bandage around an injured hinoto's arm. "she is in no condition to fight any longer."
kyojuro froze.
what did she mean? what had happened to you? were you injured? did something happen on the latest you both went on? you said you were fine, but were you lying? are you in critical condition? and...why didn't you tell him.
"why...what happened? is she here? in your estate?" kyojuro was prepared to hear the worst news.
"no," kocho shook her head, finishing the slayer's bandages. "she is within her own estate now, but with her heart condition, she cannot carry out her duties any longer."
kyojuro's face became firm. "what condition?"
her eyebrows furrowed, "she did not tell you?" he shook his head.
and with that, the insect hashira explained everyone. kyojuro clung to every word she said, and his heart plummeted to his stomach. he couldn't fathom you going through so much pain, and all alone no less.
kyojuro gave a firm nod, "thank you, shinobu."
the flame hashira was quick to make it to your estate, his feet carrying him all over the place to find you.
emiko, a little girl girl who assisted you around you estate, called out to him, "rengoku-san!" to which he turned to them, watching as they pointed him to the field of your estate with a beaming grin. "lady y/n is out there! in the garden!"
he gave emiko a grateful smile, ruffling her hair before going in that direction. "much obliged, little one!"
as he hurried outside, desperate to find you, stopping in his tracks once his eyes finally fell over your seated form.
you were draped in your favorite kimono, one that was gifted to you by the flame hashira himself, sipping on the warm tea shinobu had advised you to drink to keep you calm.
you looked so beautiful.
kyojuro calmly made his way to you, trying not to startle, which he did successfully before taking a seat beside you. of course, you knew of his presence before he was seated, but you opted to say nothing. it wasn't an uncommon occurrence for him to show up and you both just enjoy the company of one another.
although, this time, you knew something was on his mind.
"kyojuro," you spoke gently. "what's wrong?"
"why didn't you tell me?" his voice was firm, but he wasn't angry. not at you...never at you.
a moment of silence was shared between you, contemplating what to say. you're a smart woman, so you knew what he was referring too.
"i...i didn't want to burden you with this," you looked down at the cup of tea you set on the grass. "you have your own life, your own burdens to carry. i couldn't possibly trouble you with this, especially something that is inevitable."
"my y/n," kyojuro slid closer to you. "you know you could never burden me. not...not when i carry so much love for you."
there it is.
the confession you knew long ago. you weren't blind, and you'd be lying if you say you didn't harbor so much love for him. you loved him so much it was nearly frightening.
you gave a sad smile, "i know you do, kyo. and...i carry much love for you as well, b-but..." your smile slowly vanished from your face, causing kyojuro to tenderly cup your cheek.
"but what," he gently urged. "what is wrong?"
"i couldn't possibly ask you to tie yourself down to me," you shook your head slowly. "not when my time here is uncertain. i...i cannot promise i will be with you in 10 years, 5 years, 3 years, o-or even tomorrow." your lip began to quiver as slow tears fell down your cheeks, and kyojuro gently wiped them away as they fell. "how could i asked you to stick by me, to love me, when it would do nothing but break your heart in the end. that...that would be to selfish of me."
kyojuro understood where you were coming from, but he didn't agree, not in the slightest, and he was determined to make you see that.
"oh, sweet y/n," kyojuro wiped your tears with his thumb. "more than anything–right now–i want you to be selfish right now."
"w-why..." you frowned. "i'm not sure how much longer i have."
"i know that," kyojuro smiled. "that is why i wish to make the rest of your life as joyful as i can. if we are not guaranteed next year, or even tomorrow...let us make today the most memorable day of our lives."
he pulled you into his lap, gently tilting your head up for you to look at him. he gently brought his lips to yours, sealing them in a sweet kiss. his smile couldn't be helped as he felt your arms wrap around his neck, pulling him closer as you melted against him. after slowly parting from one another, kyojuro rested his forehead against yours, bestowing the most loving gaze upon you.
"i promise to give you a lifetime of love with what time we have left."

Astrid - voiced by Boone Williams - Female Celestial Skywing elf. She's mysterious and there's 'something cool' about her design.
Character based off Moonberry Surprise.
A new Startouch elf. Possibly the Merciful One (they/them) from the Sea of the Castout statues.
Tumblr media
Upcoming for main characters;
Callum - every time you do dark magic, it becomes harder to come back from it. Info on Callum birth-father. (Callum and learning Moon Arcanum - Giehl's opinion is doesn't want Callum treading on Rayla's thematic territory and stealing her thunder). Rayllum note - how would Callum using dark magic affect the trust and friendship they've been building up?
Rayla - On the curse coins - too spoilery, so they won't answer questions related to that. On Rayllum note. Would Rayla do anything for Callum? And what would Callum call upon her to do if that was the case? Questions getting asked next season, just to make you suffer.
Callum, Rayla and Stella confirmed visiting the Starscraper.
Tumblr media
Ezran - sticking to his ideals and pacifism will be tested. Rough and tough decision(s).
At some point Ezran and Callum will visit some 'weird' ruins.
Soren - has had lighter seasons so far, but is about to face darker questions. There is trauma that the writers haven't told anyone about that will come to light at some point. Soren is getting an opportunity to confront Viren about what happened at the Storm Spire (they did meet up in S4E7, which is covered in the short story Strangers, but writers felt it lacked the satisfaction needed, as neither really was in the headspace to talk), but uncertain if this is just a therapy thing or if Viren lives.
There's going to be a funny Soren and Corvus story later on.
Claudia - S5 she was under a lot of pressure, and it's not easing up. How will Claudia be impacted by Viren's decision - further into darkness or pulled back into the light? Claudia being willing to risk life and limb for her goal(s) - and then actually paying the cost of a limb - what does that mean for her and Terry?
Karim - is about to get in over his head. He doesn't realise the kind of alliances he's making.
Amaya and Janai don't get enough love in these interviews. 😢
Zym - Goes with Soren to find Zubeia. Spoiler indicates Zym has a heart to heart with her
Characters we'll be seeing more of;
Aaravos - there's a lot more of him coming in S6.
Kim'dael - 'big plans' that even go beyond the show, though specifically refused to answer if she'll met Rayla again (they met first time in Bloodmoon Huntress graphic novel).
More with the pirates and Scumport (however, Finnegrin while not confirmed dead, won't make a reappearance in S6/7). Scumport set up a bunch of stuff for going into season 6.
Kpp'Ar - confirmed there'll be more stuff about him in both S6 and S7.
Mukho - the mushroom mage, Earthblood elf who's a world expert mycologist.
More shadowpaw content.
Possibly Ellis and Ava briefly, but could be S7.
Lore -
The lore about Stars primal and Startouch elves and other mythology will be explored. How you kill a Startouch elf will be answered - including more info on Laurelion (mentioned in the Death of an Immortal poem).
(Going by how the graphic novels releases are generally introducing things that are mentioned in the next season, Puzzle House's emphasize on unicorns, and how there is a big bit of unicorn lore mentioned in the novels, is a good hint that this unicorn lore is getting explained in show too. But, just to clarify, it's not confirmed this is happening - however, it is a impactful bit of backstory and there's only 2 seasons left).
Most likely information about how Primal Stones are made - specifically how a storm was trapped from the top of Mount Kalik to create the Primal Stone Callum smashed. Ehasz mentioned that something brought up in the second episode will be expanded on in S6, and the info about the Sky Primal Stone is the only info that hasn't been addressed elsewhere from E2 that I could pick out.
More lore about golems (as in the rock guardians and Elmer)
Other notes;
Season 6 will have an explosive start.
Questions raised by Ehasz;
Was the dragang moving Aaravos's prison smart or would it have been safer to have left it? It's something they'll grapple with right away.
Is Aaravos being honest with Viren about what's going to happen? (I'm wording it as being honest rather than saying is he lying, as Aaravos's thing is manipulative truths and misdirections etc, rather than outright lies).
No context: 🔥 (Can't help looking at the use of explosive start by the NYCC notification)
There's stuff in Season 2 that will get explained in Season 6 - while they're not exactly clues, there will be referencing from S2.
Keep an eye on changes in the openers - they're continuing the hints - like when they swapped out Viren with Callum to let you know Callum and dark magic/Aaravos is going to be in the episode.
Season 7 will be Book 7: Dark.
The next graphic novel will be about "family and building trust." Update: Title Dreamer's Nightmare
Tumblr media
Can young Ezran and Callum quell the brewing storm in the quiet town of Noct, or have bad dreams come to haunt for good?
Giehl says this story has Ezran as the lead character and the artist said they enjoyed doing the many animals.
There were hints dropped at NYCC 2023 that there may be other projects based on the Dragon Prince world, but they'll come under a different name. TDP will only be the 7 seasons. (Most hints I've seen suggest they may be working towards an Orphan Queen film/series, but it could also be a continuation).

Hey God it's me again. Back by nobody's request once again: Me, 🦝.
Can we talk about Heizou?
Trick question. I WILL talk about Heizou and YOU WILL listen.
I like him so much the little skrunkly Mr canon daddy issues. Mr I want my father to be proud of me and it hurts. Mr I need to be the best and I'll still not be enough.
I love him a lot. I know I'm usually here to be horny but tbh today I'm not. I just feel bad for him. We all talk about Kazuha's my-best-friend-died-in-my-arms story but Heizou's is completely ignored. It's the ptsd for me. It's the family issues for me. It's the other people have a false image of the nature of his being for me. It's the hidden insecurities, the silent overthinking for me. Like bro did anyone ever pay attention to how careful he is with the traveler because he doesn't want to scare them off. It's the no friends (only mildly derogatory) for me.
It's the everything for me. My brain pointed at this little dude and went "that one" and now I think about him. All the time. I just want to hold him. Like bestie is u good? Do you need a hug? Some comfort? Some therapy? I will smooch him very lovingly mwah mwah
✿ 𝙨𝙖𝙛𝙚 𝙞𝙣 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙖𝙧𝙢𝙨 ✿
characters: heizou x nb!reader
warnings: angst, fluff, PTSD, reverse comfort, insecurity, heizou’s just having a very very bad day😢reader and heizou’s not in a relationship yet
notes: SAME 🦝 NONNIE! i’ve reached friendship lvl10 with heizou and i read all stories of the characters whether i like them or not and heizou’s just made me cry😭😭😭 his only friend died out in public, in his arms, saying “i… i came to see you too”. i just cosnfijdnfjsjf
also i wrote this while listening to mitski and shed good few tears here and there 🦝 anon😔👍
Tumblr media
detective shikanoin heizou of the tenryou commission is a name that’s widely known for it’s incredible intelligence, witty remarks and boy-ish charms. however that’s not all there is of heizou.
at 2 in the morning, when someone knocks on your door and wakes you up from your nice dreams, it’s safe to say that you’re ready to throw hands unless it’s an emergency. but then again almost every time you’re awoken at an unholy hours is because it’s an emergency.
‘this better be something good ‘cause i have a long day of commissions tomorrow’ throwing on a haori on top of your loose yukata, stumbling to the front door of your little house, the least person you expected to wake you up was the renowned detective of the tenryou commission.
immediately thinking of what you did that could’ve been considered law-breaking, one came into mind. but hey, you had to sock that guy because he was troubling the traveler when they were on the brink of collapsing!
“…hey, sorry to wake you up so late” heizou’s voice snapped you out of your little mind-ramble.
“oh no, it’s fine. would you like to come in?” nodding and quietly shuffling into your house, heizou seemed just so… quiet. most of the times he would spend time with you, he would be rambling about the newest case he got, how the criminals are getting dumber and dumber everyday or just about things in general.
asking him if he would like something to drink and sitting in your kitchen at 2am with the detective just silently staring at his glass of water was concerning. moreover there were dry tear tracks on his face and his clothes seemed half-heartedly thrown on.
after a while of just sitting in a deafening silence, heizou started to talk. about how he wants to be seen as the perfect reliable detective, how he wants his dad to be proud of him, about how his only childhood friend was a fraud and a thief, how after a year of staying out of contact, he met his friend again only for them to be bleeding out on the side of the road of the festival.
when recalling how his only friend had told him he wanted to see him as well, while holding a bloodied green pebble from his wallet which had no mora, only the pebble, the tears that filled his eyes fell. choking on his words, trying to apologize for dumping all of his problems on you, this was also heizou.
the same shikanoin heizou that throws around flirty remarks with you. the same shikanoin heizou that catches criminals left and right like they were just passing by him in the streets. the same shikanoin heizou who proudly declared he wanted to stop evil.
“i-i’m sorry hic i didn’t mean to dump-oomf!” being held close to your chest and telling him it was okay and that you understand was the last breaking point for him. sobbing out loudly like a child and clinging to you like a lifeline, this was also shikanoin heizou. your heizou.
after exhausting all his strength, you simply carried him to your bed for him to rest.
to heizou he felt like he was being gently cradled by the sun. so soft, warm and inviting.
to heizou, you were the only one to truly see who he was and not run away.
to heizou, you are the one he fell for and damn did he fell for the perfect person.
to heizou, your arms felt like home.

POV those stranger things fans
Billy Hargrove: is a sexist and racist white man who abuses Max and bullies middle schoolers and is generally a massive asshole with absolutely zero redeeming qualities to the point where the writers only even bothered to give him screen-time to make ppl hate him and to give Max character development for when they killed him off. Also he literally was meant to be like Stranger Things’ Henry from IT.
Some fr ppl: awww poor Billy 🥺🥺 it’s only cuz he was abused 😢😢 he doesn’t deserve the hate 🥺🥺🥺 it’s not his fault he’s racist and tried to run over Mike Dustin and Lucas and made Max’s life 10x worse than it already was 😢🥺 he’s just my rlly attractive hot uwu mean white boy that’s all 😍🥰
Meanwhile Mike Wheeler: incredibly traumatized 14 year old kid who loves his friends so much but grew up with an emotionally absent father and a mom who tries her best but still defers to their father a lot and noticeably hates him, super adhd coded and probably also has bpd or autism, by season 4 he has virtually no support system whatsoever and a sister who’s just as emotionally distant as both his parents, not to mention he’s a repressed queer kid growing up with a conservative father in a town like Hawkins, Indiana and enough depression and abandonment issues for me to write a whole essay on-
Those same fr ppl: ugh he’s so lame. Such a lame character. He was good in s1 ig but then his character completely fell through, he’s badly written and he’s annoying and his trauma isn’t an excuse for him to be acting the way he is and he may as well just die next season cuz he’s so boring and useless 🙄🖐🏻
….y’all see the problem here right?

Astro Observations 2
✨cancer in mercury natives threaten to leave the friend group their with in a joking sense, which isn’t bad but gets tiring at points 😭
✨having Sun in the 9th house can often indicate your father left you in a certain way, I have this placement and my father gained a condition that doesn’t make him the same anymore mentally while a friend of mine does not have their father in their life period 😢
✨people that have a libra midheaven are often pretty, I think it’s because of Libra’s desire to beautify things so having a pretty face in the workplace makes sense
✨Mars in the 1H can mean exceptional strength, but bad acne and or scarring of the face in some way shape or form
✨surprisingly enough, most millionaires or people with a lot of money have Uranus in 2H, I’d assume it’s because when in this placement it’s more or less of a high highs to low lows kinda vibe, if anyone does get windfall with this placement be sure to Manage your Money Wisely 🚨⚠️
✨people that are queer can usually have the following aspects in their chart:
moon trine Mercury Δ
Uranus trine Mercury Δ
Uranus trine moon Δ
HM: Venus in one of the mutable signs (Sag, Pisces, Virgo, Gemini)
✨Sag rising= Thick thighs save lives (loll)
✨Lilith in the 2nd house can mean you have self confidence issues 🥺
✨Fire signs seem to be very emotional, like sometimes a LOT more than water signs ig it’s because fire can be really destructive sometimes and they can’t contain so it just erupts, kinda cool to think about 🔥🔥
✨Pisces in Venus cannot see those red flags oml😭, if y’all have some good friends pls pls plsssss ask them to help you identify them if any, on the flip side tho, they can be single for a while and be quite content with it since Pisces rules isolation.
✨ Capricorn placements cannot see to save their lives😂
✨ I noticed air signs always have the habit of attracting friends that are really really intimidated by us🥴, i still don’t know why, but its like a thing, can anyone explain this???
End of thread, hope y’all enjoyed the observations
(Likes and reposts are appreciated! 💙)

This video is also uploaded on TIKTOK Ko-fi Website: Click Here
Tumblr media
A continuous battle and I am scared(URGENT) - you can click on the image to direct you to the Ko-Fi Site.
Dear Friends, Right now I feel despair, and hopelessness. And I feel so tired. I deeply apologize for tagging you all again, please don't get mad. I just really needed help.😢😢 I just got my life back, and recently recovered from my debts from my previous battle in between 2021 and mid 2023. I really felt so ashamed in writing this, because I am avoiding as much as I can to ask help financially again. 
You were there for me during my darkest hours, and for that, I will be eternally grateful. But now, I find myself in a situation more dire than ever before, and I am trembling with fear as I implore you to lend me your aid once again.
The video you see attached to this post is a painful reminder of the recent loss I've endured. Uncle Dindo joined our creator last March 24, 2024, after battling Stage 4 Lung Cancer for a month. His passing has left a void in our souls, and also drowned us in debts too. I am helping with expenses as much as I can, that it also drowned me. My Father died of the same illness as well. I made a post more than a month ago with the Title: FIGHTING AGAINST CANCER sadly we still have zero donation and sales from our Emotes and Digital Stickers sale. 
I do not know how to approach all of you again, but I am so scared right now. The reason I made this new post is I've been doing my best to make ends meet, trying to loan to a bank to be able for me to start my Treatment again(but mostly got rejected). I am already back to work eversince the fourth quarter of 2023, but the income is not enough as I earn only $12-$15/day with 12 hours plus of work.  I am really really scared right now as I am writing this. First, I need to settle my rent within 12-24 hours which cost $500(water & electricity is unstable). My landlord is threatening me that he will lock the house, kicking me out and leaving my pets behind. My cats and my dog are my life. Update(05/02/2024): I asked helped from a local council here to help me talk to my landlord. We have an agreement and I am given enough time until Saturday of this week - May 4, 2024. To settle the rent and for me and my pets to leave the apartment, we found a new one but we need a 2 month deposit. And payment for a rental truck. I need to pay my landlord too - so, I can be able to transfer to another home, and he will let me leave peacefully. Which will have another cost, as I need to rent a small truck because I have my pets with me. I have written this on my previous blogs before that I have been sexually harassed(this SCARES me so much too), and stalked by a former friend. He was jailed, but he is back again(already reported it to police). But for safety transferring home is needed. My trauma is still not yet recovered. We still need to prioritize as well my Aunt's treatment, as her health is rapidly deteriorating too(Stage 3 breast Cancer is advancing, her right breast has already been removed). And I need to start mine again, it spread in other parts of my body(I am holding on). I'm really scared right now. If you can spare anything—money, support, anything at all—it would mean the world to me. I hate asking, but I don't know what else to do. Any amount is appreciated, or you can purchase from my Small Shop as well. Thank you so much. Please take Care. Love, Jasky P.S. Sorry if my writing sounds scattered. I don't have proper sleep at the moment.
Sorry for tagging again, please do not get mad at me. I really help so badly. Reposting, or if you have any at least $5 or buy stickers it will really mean a lot to us, to me.

The Responder S2 (spoiler free review)
So, I just finished watching the 2nd season of The Responder.
What. A. Ride.
After the very excellent 1st season (still mad about the BAFTA snub(s) btw.), I wasn't sure if they could pull off the same level of quality again. Ok, the trailer looked great, but I think we can agree that trailers can be deceiving. But let me tell you: they did pull it off. Season 2 is as good as season 1 and I maybe even better.
We don't need to introduce most of the characters any more and dive right into the drama. Season 1 was dark and gritty, and this one is even darker and grittier. That's usually a turn-off for me, but we have that very subtle, very macabre humour again, which I loved (and needed).
The new characters were amazing additions. Bernard Hill (RIP 😢, felt so bittersweet to seem him) as Chris' father and Adam Nagaitis as Franny were both excellent.
The storylines were all very interesting and well executed. There were so many moments where I just mumbled to myself "Jesus Christ, how can it get worse?", but it's never over the top or unbelievable. Just a lot of very bad decisions by most of the characters who have to deal with the shit life is throwing at them and not knowing how to handle it. Really loved Rachel's storyline.
Martin must have loved filming season 2- there is so much more swearing! 🤭😂
Very, very good season!
PS: Don't expect any gifs from me until next week, I am leaving for a short vacation tomorrow (London!!).
@khorazir I am so glad that I waited. 😉

omori spoilers, also alcoholism and domestic stuff
ugh. the part in omori where you hero and kel go to aubreys house is just. it hit me like a truck. i know it's coming every single time and it never gets easier.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this dialogue bro. like. this is so realistic and i just can I CANT😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😢😭
iit hits so close to home... the pure reality of aubreys situation is just so insane to me. her home was always like this (it is said that things got considerably worse once her father left, but i mean given that her friends never came over idk i think something was definitely wrong. like her parents argued or fought or something? alcoholic dad? idk)
but to think that like. 12 uear old aubrey had an awful home life and was just so . happy. she was so little :((
idk if any of this makes sense it just amazes me how. realistic aubrey is.
also somebody pointed out that nobody mentioned how bad her house was. hero talked to her like normal and just tried to sort things through and cheer her up. the closest anyone came to mentioning it is when hero said 'now let's get you out of this house'. which i jsut:( in that scene hero is such a father figure to aubrey it makes me want to bawl
i just love how despite only now seeing aubreys home life for tthe first time, kel sunny and hero treat her the same and don't bring it up. j think it goes to show how thhey all still care about aubrey. even sunnys dialogue when looking at stuff in the house is the same. i love them .

Things I LOVED in NATLA Episode 7 - The North
Lt Jee actually being worried for Zuko!!!!
And Iroh tenderly bandaging Zuko's head 🥺
Zuko desperate to make sure his father doesn’t truly think he's turned against him!!!!!
A FANTASTIC set-up for his eventual ACUTAL turn against his father
Zuko genuinely thanking Lt. Jee 😢
And aaggghhhh!!! Zhao being a tricky slimey mf
This is a slick way to get Zuko being blown up without the pirates - though they're fun characters, I think this set-up enhanced the themes they were exploring in the season more
TEAM AVATAR!!
So cute that Aang excitedly tells his friends he made a connection with Zuko - Sokka is unimpressed while Katara has hope that people can turn out to be good.
Agna Qel'a!!!!
It looks GORGEOUS! And love that it has a name now!!
Apparently it was given a name in one of the books, but they never did name it in the show, so I'm glad they did it here
I don't even care that they know it's the Avatar right off bat and they're ready to welcome them in - it was cool as shit flying over the city on Appa
Maybe they had scouts out that saw Appa flying and brought news to the city, same as the scouts who saw the Fire Nation fleet - I'll accept that
Them treating Aang like a weapon rather than a person 😡
It's something that comes up a lot in the series and I'm glad they aren't shying away from it
Lol Katara's sibling jibing at Sokka staring at Yue 🤣
I love these little sibling moments - they're just so cute
And Sokka now hard-core staring at the ground instead of at Yue because Katara said he looked like a weirdo doing that 😅
Zhao's overacting at how pissed he is 🤣
Then his 'omg I can yes and this. I can SO yes and this!' as Iroh tells him what he 'think's happened
Oooohhh Iroh's understated insults at Zhao's qualifications
And Zhao's comeback about no record of failure unlike Iroh😐 bitch, that still doesn't make you qualified!
More Azulaaa!!!!
I really love this added storyline to see exactly why Azula is the way she is
It's great to see that her place as next-in-line isn't a shoe-in here - she's desperate to show her father that 'she's the one' and will do anything to get there
Sokka's heart eyes 😍
Stewed sea prunes 😭😭😭
"It tastes like home" 😢
I like this intro to Pakku - like with Sokka, they're not doing a comical level of sexism, they're making it more realistic
YUE IS A BEEENNDDEERR!!!!!!
Also, using it for the most important things: dessert
Sokka's absolutely abysmal (bet very endearing) interaction attempts with Yue 😅
Her little fake gasps as he keeps saying the wrong thing, but smiling because she knows what he means, she's just teasing him 🥺 incredibly adorable
Love that they have a conversation that actually has substance!
Don't hate me, but in the cartoon, they never had a substantive conversation ONCE. It was just Sokka flirting, Yue giggling, then Yue freaking out and running away - rinse and repeat like, 5 times in the course of 3 episodes.
Omg Hahn isn't a dick!!!
I like the more mature tone they've taken in the live action - they can have jokes, but for serious topics like…idk, a battle against the Northern Water Tribe being genocided, they make the characters take it seriously
GOOOOODDDD the adults expecting Aang to be a master strategist and offensive weapon!!
This actually makes sense that they'd believe he could do it - Aang is the culmination of all the past Avatars, so they'd assume he has all their knowledge and power.
The poor kid just got out of his iceberg, though!!!
"Airbending is primarily a defensive discipline"
You tell them, Aang!!
"But you're not JUST an airbender" :( don't bring logic and reality into this, Arnook
"I did it with the help of my friends 😊"  sweet baby Aang
And here's Pakku, telling Aang what a lot of watchers were frustrated about this season: uuhh maybe you should have been focused on your training
While that's a legit comment, I think the live-action showed why Aang didn't pretty well
Love love LOVE that we're introduced to healing with respect rather than the distain it was shown in the animated series
Healing is a wonderful and beautiful skill and I'm glad we got to see Katara interested in it (and it being used) rather than Katara sadly moping into the igloo filled with children learning healing
Sometimes, when people try to make things less sexist, they end up making it more-so. I think that happened with the animated series where healing was actually put up in conflict with combat - where combat was clearly shown as the 'better' skill and healing was 'stupid and bad, we don’t want to do that'. The live-action showed that healing is an important and powerful skill, the only issue comes when you aren't ALLOWED to do anything else. Healing itself isn't the issue, the fact the women are kept from combat IS the issue.
Nice Hahn and Sokka fishing for info about Yue
Avatar Kuruk RESPECT!!!!
LOVE Yue getting more character here!
She can pop into the spirit world! It makes so much sense with her having part of the moon spirit inside her!
The live action fleshed her out soooo well!
Poor Sokka not understanding AT ALL why someone would want to go to the Spirit World for fun 😂
"Don't do that. Don't make it less than what it is"
Such an important message for EVERYONE. You don’t have to have the most tragic of backstories for your trauma to be important. This isn't the oppression olympics - we aren't doing the whole 'well someone else has it worse so you can't complain' bullshit.
Everyone has hurt in their lives and everyone deserves to have their hurt taken seriously and healed. It isn't 'strength' to pretend it's nothing - it's strength to face it and accept that it was important, not something to shove under the rug
Yue reminding Sokka about what makes him special - his care for his friends! He's not a selfish guy - just because he wasn't the best leader or warrior when he was 13 doesn't mean he has nothing to offer the world
"Hahn is everything a girl could want. But he is not the boy of my dreams" 😭😭😭
"Being the Avatar means being the one who bears the burden: alone."
The thing is: like in the animated version, this advice MAKES SENSE! But it's how you USE the advice that makes the difference
No, you can't put all the weight of responsibility on your friends, but neither can you do it without any help - or without caring for others. It's very much advice coming from pain: all the Avatars got hurt because they DIDN'T abandon their friends and so they're giving a skewed version of the advice onto Aang to try to spare him the pain they went through.
It's Aang's job to find the balance
Sokka's fish carving that Yue thinks is a bear 😭😭😭
I wanna see it, props department!!!!
Yeess!! Katara's first confrontation with Pakku!
I like how she still tries to lead with diplomacy, making her case, and Pakku has 'reasonable' excuses not to let her fight
Instead of him being cartoonishly sexist, he's much more realistic giving 'logical' reasons for Katara not to be in combat, but she stands up anyways because she knows it's wrong.
I can see how some might find Aang not wanting Katara to fight to be jarring, but this is in line with the animated series
When they're going into particularly dangerous missions, Aang does have a tendency to try to do it himself and tell Katara to sit this one out - he does it in The Winter Solstice: Part 2.
He's just been told a past life's love was killed because he didn't keep her out of his fight, he has no idea how he's going to win this battle, and he's realizing that he does see Katara as someone incredibly important to him. It's in line with who Aang is to try to keep her safe and away from the battle
Zhao coming up with nicknames for himself 😑
Iroh straight up calling Fire Nation 'info' propaganda!!
While some people could see this as 'treason', when you're in positions of power in high-control groups, you KNOW it's propaganda - you HELP CREATE the lies and when people are going to do something stupid (like attack the North without a solid plan), you let them know that they're being stupid if they're going to make battle plans based on the lies you've helped spread.
Zhao and his dumb bitch destiny 🙄 he's such a great villain - he's one who's bought into his own lies
"The plan is to prove my father wasn't wrong to trust me with this mission. The plan is to go in and capture the Avatar once and for all. The PLAN is to reclaim what is rightfully MINE!! 😤" - "So, no plan? 😐" - "I'm working on it uncle 🥺"
This exchange = gold. Pure gold.
"It's almost as if he's working for someone else - someone much smarter"
WOOOOWWW Iroh, throw that shade a little more, why don't ya 🤣
Though I LOVE that they're giving Azula her brainy due - she's smart and she's the one not to be underestimated.
AZULA'S LIGHTNING!!!!!!!
Love how she stood up to her father, but because she was able to 'prove' her strength, he respected it rather than punished it
"Set me loose" AAAAHHHHHHH
SUPPORTIVE BROTHER SOKKA!!!
Love how matter of fact Katara is "I'm going to challenge Pakku to fight" - just like that. She's decided, so it's going to happen.
Sokka admitting Katara was right 😭😭😭😭😭
"Who's talking sense? What I'm trying to say is: go kick his ass" FUCK YEAH THAT'S RIGHT!!!!
Aang trying to go forward and help Katara, but Sokka holds him back
Love the sibling solidarity!!
The fight is almost beat for beat the one from the animated series!!!
I love that the live action knew exactly which sequences to put in almost 1-1 from the animated - this fight being one of them
"Is that all you got?!?!" FUCK YEAH!!
"They'll just say I lost" "Did you?"
The fact that it wasn't just Pakku's opinion that would change everything - Katara's actions inspired everyone else, even if Pakku didn't want to change his decision.
Change isn't made by changing one man's mind - it's about standing up to them and inspiring others (like in the Imprisoned storyline) to stand up too
Even inspiring Aang to realize that the conclusion the other Avatars came to from their pain was wrong - that Katara was right and that EVERYONE gets to choose whether to fight or not for themselves
Avatars aren't the only ones who worry about protecting people - it's a human, family thing, not just a mystical force of balance thing
Only Aang can write his own story - not anyone else.
This is a great through-line for the whole series where everyone has expectations put on them and they have to decide themselves who they want to be
Don't eat the sooty snow, Momo!!!!!
"Ok, time to fight"
I like that we end on the fire nation ships arriving: next episode is going to be THE BATTLE

The Story of Minglan
I probably won't be able to pull off a whole episode tonight but I. Must. Know 😭😭
***
The way she keeps begging her worthless father for even a crumb of acknowledgement that he had any feelings whatsoever for her poor mother, smh.
Tumblr media
***
Oh, fuck you.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
All he ever thinks of is his dick and his pride. I don't think he has ever truly loved anyone except for himself.
***
Oh, baby 😢
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Why are you even still expecting anything from his worthless, selfish ass?
***
YES. SEE HIM FOR WHAT HE IS.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He deserves neither your love nor respect. Please stop crying because of him!
***
Ugh, this evildoer.
Tumblr media
Don't worry, I have no doubt you'll eventually get yours too! 😡
***
Who?
Tumblr media
What are the names of those two princes again? Yan and Yong?
***
I am suuuuuuper confused.
Tumblr media
Are Consort Yong and Duchess Ying the same person?
(Also, finally! These Yan and Yong people appear! I have been trying so hard to remember these names because this drama keeps hinting they will be important.)
***
No, not the same, because Consort Yong is a princess, not a duchess, smh. Then what are they both wearing pink for? A little consideration for us face-blind people would have been nice!
***
So.... let me see if I've got this straight.
Tumblr media
The Princes Yong and Yan are the current Emperor's brothers?
***
Oh, wait, I just realized that this toxic gossip is Yanran's shitty younger sister!
Tumblr media
I didn't recognise her in fine clothes, lol.
What the hell is her problem? She's still mad about being beaten at a game of polo?
***
Jesus Christ. Now she has the attention of these witches on her.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is all Qi Heng's shitty doing. I hate him more than I can express 🤬🤬
And it's not just Minglan, these Imperial fuckers can ruin her entire family too!
***
LOL, who's the little whore?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Is there a single woman in this drama who doesn't have a problem with mistresses, concubines, serving maids and prostitutes? 😅
***
NOOOOOO, DON'T GO MEET WITH HIM!! 😭
Tumblr media
AND THIS CREEPY WITCH SAW!! 😭😭
Tumblr media
***
STUPID. STUPID. STUPID.
Tumblr media
Minglan, where did you lose your brain??
***
WHO GIVES A FUCK ABOUT YOUR MISERABLE BODY
Tumblr media
YOUR EVIL MOTHER BEAT A WOMAN TO DEATH BECAUSE OF YOU. FUCK YOU AND FUCK HER AND FUCK YOUR ENTIRE HOUSE
***
There is no chance this will not pulverize both her reputation and that of her entire house.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
First of all, the Emperor would never offend his parents by granting this marriage and second, the scandal of it will do soooooo much damage to her and her family. Just imagine how pissed off his parents will be, in addition to every other snooty noble who is very much going to take her trying to marry above her means as a personal insult. Sheng Hong has neither the power nor the mental capacity to deal with the fallout of that.
***
LMAO, where did his stupid ass come from? 🤣🤣
Tumblr media
He's like a jack-in-the-box, always popping up, it seems.
***
LOL, bribe him with the cake to keep him quiet 🤣🤣
Tumblr media
***
Yes! Finally, somebody is speaking some common sense!
Tumblr media
All her stupid maids to is enable her because they think it's sooooo romantic 🙄🙄
***
Yes, baby! Here for you and your petty goals! 🤗
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
***
Oh, nooooooo 😬😬
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Of course Buwei gets blamed. Of course!

I love Harwin Strong so much and I just want him to be happy. 😢🤧Can you do a Harwin Strong x reader with them living happily ever after?
Tumblr media
Harwin my beloved!! Hope you enjoy this! Its just a little headcannon about a life with him.
ser harwin strong x female! reader
pretty much the ask :)
word count: 634 words reading time: about 4 minutes warnings: none
headcannon
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊Both you and Harwin have known each other for years, growing up together due to you being a child of a Nobel family
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊The pair of you took a lot of time to begin your relationship, for the pair of you took some time to come to terms with your feelings for each other.
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊You were one of the few people kind to Larys, seeing him for more than his disability. The pair of you loved to gossip about other Nobels, often whispering to each other.
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊It was one of the defining factors as to why Harwin loved you. Despite what others may say or the rumours of others, you still treat them the same as you do anyone else.
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊But what really made her fall head over heels for you was when he caught you arguing with someone over something they said about him. Though he did not care for what others said about him, it was strange to see someone else did.
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊The way you spoke to this person, was full of fire and venom. He could not help but say it turned him on. When the person went to raise their hand at your words, he was quick to step in.
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊Though you expressed you did not need help in the situation, you thank him for it, a kind smile on your face.
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊When it came time for him to ask you to begin a relationship with you he was beyond nervous. It took Harwin some time to gather the courage, for he wanted everything to be correct.
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊But what he thought would be an extravagant event turned out to be something that was a spur of the moment. A confession at night in the rain, both of you fueled with adrenaline.
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊The pair of yours relationship was quickly whispered and gossiped about. Not that the pair of you minded, for you had each other.
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊You both were a power couple, Harwin was a strong and intimidating man while you could cut down a person with simply your words.
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊With simply glances, you both could have a full conversation
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊Harwin, Larys and yourself had been known of gossiping about others. Sharing whispers at feasts and parties about the guests.
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊When the pair of you finally had children, Harwin was with you the entire time. He would refuse to go anywhere once the due date comes closer.
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊ The man would be worried something would happen to you, that there would be a complication. Or maybe there might be something wrong with the child. He needed to be there to tell the maesters what you wanted to do. Less the maesters simply do as they please
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊By some grace of the Gods everything went smoothly and you both had a healthy child. Harwin seemed almost intimidated by your child, his hands being used to hurt others. But once the small child was cleaned, wrapped in blankets and placed in his arms it seemed to calm him.
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊Being a father suited him, he cared greatly for his children but was not a pushover. Over time you both had three children, each one he cared for deeply.
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊ He tried to connect with them separately, doing things his children liked together. Making sure to spend equal time with him, not wanting them to feel as though he had a favourite.
𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊┊With you and his children by his side, Harwin felt complete. A happy family was all he wished for. Something he made with you by his side. A life he could have never dreamed of.

Okay! My honest opinion on "Miraculous World: Paris"?
Tumblr media
It was AMAZING!!!!
Lot's of action, some funny moments, very emotional and lots of tension!
One thing I especially love is how the Special wastes absolutely no time with getting straight into the action!
Something I hate about many movies is how they just waste so much time setting up the plot that by the time it finally gets to the good stuff, half the movie is already over!
The writers really have my respect for not doing that here! After the opening, they waste no time and immediately get straight to the actual plot!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Another thing i really love about the special is the way they handled Shadybug and Claw Noir!
I kept saying that Shady and Claw have the potential to become the best Miraculous villains ever, even if they get redeemed, and as far as I'm concerned, i was totally right about that because these two are officially my favorite Miraculous villains!!! 🖤
[WARNING!! SPOILERS AHEAD!!!]
For one, I love villains like Shadybug who are driven by a desire to not be hurt anymore!
I felt so bad for her when she cried while reading Marinette's diary! 😢
Tumblr media
And I found it so touching how she first acted cold and rude towards Sabine but quickly backtracked on her attitude, when Sabine continued to speak kindly to her!
It showed that Shadybug wished she'd have a loving mother like that and she'd actually be grateful for it!
Tumblr media
I am truly touched by how vurnerable she looked throughout that entire scene!
💔💔💔
🖤And I absolutely love how sassy and unhinged Claw Noir is!🖤
The guy freaking cataclysmed himself ON PURPOSE FOR NO APPEARANT REASON!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
At least I can't think of a reason why he did that! And even while cataclysmed, he still managed to put up one heck of a fight throughout the entire special!!
And It's very interesting how his motivation is a lot like Monarch's, but at the same time not!
Claw Noir does want his mother back, but he seems more hurt by the fact that his father doesn't seem as upset as he is!
Although it's not that hard to read the signs that Shadyverse!Gabriel infact is impacted by his wife's death!
If I had to guess, it looks very much like Claw THOUGHT his father easily moved on and continued to focus on his work as a fashion designer and forgot about Emily, while what he was really doing was using the butterfly miraculous to create superheroes and trying to stop the Supreme, most likely to create a safe world for their son!
I also love how both Shady and Claw wear different masks to hide their sadness : Shadybug acts cold and unfeeling while Claw Noir is more outgoing and unhinged! Claw is basically that one character who is a little b*tch but is just too charismatic to hate!
[SPOILERS OVER]
There might've been a few things I had hoped to see in the special that weren't there, but that's okay because a lack of one or two good possible elements is still better than the presence of multiple bad elements — which mind you was NOT present in this special at all!
The show often has some moments that really made me cringe, but I couldn't find a SINGLE bad moment in this special!
[SPOILERS]
So the fact that we didn't get much personal father-son drama between Batterfly and Claw Noir (Which was justified since, contrary to what i assumed, they don't know each others secret identities) or the fact that neither CelesteCat's white suit and hair nore Claw Noir's giant Cataclysm triggered Ladybug's Chat Blanc PTSD (because we don't talk about this enough in Season 5) don't bother me much!
My worries about Ubiquity, despite being featured heavily in promotional material, barely appearing in the actual special (because she only had one appearence in all the trailers) were also put to rest! Even though Alya isn't Ubiqity for long at first, she still gets turned back into her a few times! Giving her enough screentime that I see no reason to get mad over her being promoted so much even though she doesn't actually stick around throughout the entire special!
[SPOILERS END]
Whoever says this show lost it's touch should definetly watch this!
Which is another little meta detail I really love in this special :
'Hope' is a central theme in the special, and it was so good that it also gave me hope that the show can return to it's former glory!
Despite a lot of controversy surrounding the show for quite a while now, this special proves that, just like Shadybug, Claw Noir and Batterfly's world, the show itself can also still be saved!

Gentle Touch - B. H.
Tumblr media
Summary : Just a peaceful and quiet moment where billy is being comforted and loved.
Warning: not proof read 😢 , super soft
Tumblr media
She ran her fingers gently through his beautiful golden locks. Caressing the outside of his ear before doing the same with his cheek.
He sighed quietly, rubbing his face against her stomach as they slept side ways on her bed. Body relaxed and anything he used to worry about gone from his shoulders as he enjoyed the kind scent of his lover. Billy really loved these moments the most.
The little moments he had with his kind girlfriend. It was weird at first, having these moments. He was always on guard, tense, afraid that she would … hurt him some way even though he knew she never would and would always try to keep to himself in these intimate moments with her because of what his father always told him when he acted this way but — he was so fortunate, so lucky to have landed someone as kind as her. Though — most of the times he thought of how he didn’t deserve her at all, but he still relished these moments. These heart warming moments.
Billy loves this. They didn’t have to talk, they didn’t have to have sex, they didn’t have to do anything besides cuddling quietly. Her presence had him like this after they’ve been together for a while now. And after a while of long awkward hugs, he was finally able to be comfortable with her enough to even do this with her. She was able calm his fiery temper with just a touch of her smaller hand on his back as well now. And she calmed him the most when they hugged like this and just lazed around in her room.
He hummed against her stomach and rubbed his head again her stomach again, his hair tickled his cheek as his eyes kept closed and arms stayed wrapped around her medial body while she had an arm under her head and the other moved to continue to touch him lovingly.
“ m’love ya “
He whispered quietly against her, body warm against her own as he sighed in content, he wish they could stay like this forever really.
She smiled down at him, bending her back a little as she kissed the top of his head as much as she could, happy that billy was like this with her, even if it took a while to get him to relax with her like this, it was all worth it to have him this comfortable.
“ love you, billy “
She spoke with a soft voice, caressing his back kindly with her hand as he smiled against her. Yeah, his lovely love truly had a gentle touch.
