I had a brain dead idea after suffering from wriothesely brainrot courtesy of catching up to the Fontaine story quest uptill version 4.1 story. I haven't finished 4.2 story yet.
Meet arranged marriage idea, ft. rizzly (wriothesely) + fem!reader
Tumblr media
What if the reader is some high class lady in Fontaine and has been brought up with a silver spoon. They end up marrying Wriothesely because their father sold them off for political power and status and over all terrible family dynamics between the reader and their aristocratic family. The reader is treated as a burden in their family, constantly nitpicked on (sticking to etiquette and eloquent behavior is hard.)
Wriothesely who's permanent abode is the Fortress and is the king of a no man's land, doesnt leave the Fortress much, isn't seen by many. When the reader first enters the Fortress for the first time they are like lowkey grossed out like "what is this dump?" and casually offending prisoners because thats the way the reader has been brought up and childhood teachings aren't changed in one night.
Yes, the reader is bratty because it is a weird change of pace for someone who grew up in lavish white halls and greenery getting sent into dark, eerie depths of the sea.
And the prisoners don't like their new Duchess (reader) and neither does the reader like the prisoners. Wriothesely tries to make the marriage work out by taking the reader on tours, throwing small surprises, showing them various fishes through the clear windows, attempting to cook homely foods for the reader with sigewinne's help, probably telling nem about fortress's past , how the prisoners are actually nice, doing cute fun things to get the reader to like the Fortress and convince them that it is a good place in it's own way.
The reader starts to like wriothesely (who doesnt like rizzly tho-) as nobody had done so much but still wants to return back to the overworld and its luxuries because of sense of longing.
Reader ends up helping someone who didn't had coupon vouchers out of generosity because that prisoner was starving and nobody could help because they were saving their coupon vouchers and that person is grateful to them and then they return the gesture by doing something sweet and then all other prisoners like the duchess too because they realise that the duchess (reader) is nice and the duchess is accepted as a part of the Fortress family.
The reader is like touched and agrees to stay but then her sucky family comes back to take her as whatever the marriage contract was, ended but the reader is like
"No I am staying here."
"But daughter, the contract of your marriage to the duke ended."
"Well father, who said I can't marry him again? You don't see me complaining."
Tumblr media
I dont know, it sounded cool in my head.
BUT LOOK AT HIM WOAH?

90% of the posts I see about TSATS are just showing me that virtually NONE of you understood what the book is actually about. If you’re complaining that Will and Nico are “out of character” please just stfu. Prior to this book we had almost NOTHING to go off of about BOTH of them. Especially Will. All we had was that he’s a medic, sarcastic, generally a pretty chill and caring guy and that his mom is a country singer. That’s about it. I loved how Will was portrayed in the book. Everything he did made sense to his character and to the situation he was in. For those of you saying that Will was “whiny and annoying” please stop talking and read the book again. Will is a child of the sun, of LIGHT. Of course he’s gonna have a negative reaction to somewhere the sun doesn’t exist. The whole point of Wills arc is him learning to accept that darkness isn’t all bad. That darkness can be just as beautiful as light. That’s something that he LEARNS!!! It’s frustrating to see almost no one understand that. And as for Nico, he’s a traumatized teenager doing his goddamn best. Of course he’s gonna be cracking stupid jokes and making idiotic comments in the middle of Tartarus. And for the love of gods. THEY ARE 15. OF COURSE ITS GONNA BE CRINGEY!! THATS THE POINT!! It would be WEIRD IF IT WASN’T! Anyways I’m probably gonna make several more posts about this and go more in depth on some of my thoughts and analysis. But for now if you’re gonna take anything away from this post it’s that please read the book again if you think Nico and Will are out of character. Because they aren’t. You just expected a version of them that the fandom created.

im sorry for complaining about this again and im gonna remain frustratingly vague as usual but to me it feels like there are some fundamental misunderstandings when it comes to jaime and some of the things that are being explored in depth in his arc and how, and a lot of that misunderstanding is deflected with the “redemption vs no redemption” discourse where that very concept isnt even meaningfully defined, especially in the context of his story. his character is very often simplified down to an extreme (and also confused) dichotomy that does nothing but force all discussion of complicated characterization, themes, and actual difficult choices being made (and why, and how those choices are restricted by external or internal factors, and what desires of his are selfish or commendable) to a halt by virtue of being frustratingly reductive. like a lot of ppl just dont engage with this character properly because of the “complex asoiaf characters being locked inside of fandom created boxes they dont fit” phenomenon. one of the greyest characters in asoiaf is just not allowed to be grey because of the redemption dichotomy. he either has to be a golden retriever with no agency of his own when it comes to the evil he does or enables who is only making selfless choices since jumping into the pit (as if this kind of simple linear trajectory is a requirement for an arc to be one thats exploring reformation and the struggle with atonement & redemption, among other things) or a morally black villain with all of his redeemable and heroic aspects diminished, whose difficult position of being in the middle of a lot of conflicting oaths that is full of moral grey area (so many vows speech) and cannot be made to compromise — as well as his house (including his 8 year old son) being under existential risk — is just outright ignored, his internal conflicts, guilt/shame, and self reflection misconstrued, his development denied, and everything he decides to do being read in bad faith to neatly fit a specific narrative that actively rejects the questions proposed through his character arc (that the author himself openly talks about in interviews, if you still refuse to believe it is the intention). and please stop acting like george is even trying to give you a straightforward easily digestible and resounding yes/no answer to these questions. like theres an actual allergy to complexity here, and i cant even act shocked when i see some of the most basic aspects of his character being missed. and for me it is especially easy to recognize when certain talking points are being regurgitated rather than actually thought about meaningfully or independently bc ive seen every opinion on him under the sun, and it is really not that hard to spot

Frozen genuinely works SO MUCH BETTER as a stage show then it does as a movie, probably because with musical's you have a lot more time to unpack everything, and Frozen is a VERY heavy story. Anna and Elsa's trauma is given so much more room to be explored in the musical because it doesn't need to be condensed for plot progression. We're allowed to just pause everything for like 3 minutes just to get a glimpse into what's going on in Elsa's mind, which I feel we really didn't get enough of in the original film. The extra time also gives them more of a chance to flesh out Anna and Kristoff's relationship, which, while I still think pairing them off at the end was unnecessary at BEST, does at least make them getting together make more sense then it does in the movie. They were also allowed to lean into the darker aspects of the story a lot more, since parents are less likely to take their kids to see a broadway show than they are to take them to a movie theater. The horror Elsa feels at the prospect of hurting people, or more specifically Anna, again is touched on so much more in depth in the musical. She also like, actively contemplates suicide that one time? "Do I kill the monster" - Elsa, in reference to herself. That would NOT have flown in the movie, I'll tell you that much. They're also allowed to be much hornier??? Which isn't necessarily a good thing, more neutral all things considered, but it is funny so I'll count that as a plus lmao.
Weirdly though, despite all the extra time, they did not take a minute to properly foreshadow Hans being the twist villain. Which you knew I had to bring it back to because complaining abt that fucking plot twist has been the only thing I've done in this fandom so far. In fact, I'd say the reveal is almost WORSE on stage, because they can't use all those camera angles that help build tension in the movie, and because the twist is so out-of-left-field there's literally no way to know it's coming unless you've already seen Frozen, which tbh I think the people that intially adapted the movie for broadway might've taken for granted. They took the time to give Hans his own solo number with TWO REPRISES, but don't take a moment to show the audience that he's actually the bad guy until the "if only there was someone who loved you" moment. Tbh it's kinda ironic, since the Hans plot twist is the #1 thing people tend to have a problem with in the original movie. My biggest issue with the Hans plot twist overall is that it really clutters the movie and just feels like a weird aside that distracts you from the actual. Plot. But since they have more room to work with it in the stage show, it didn't have to be that way! If they had revealed Hans' true intentions during, idk, maybe the end of the first Hans of the Southern Isles Reprise, it would've helped build tension in the later scene, because WE understand that Anna is in danger, but SHE doesn't. But alas, complaining about writing chocies you didn't like on the internet won't change them, so I am forced to look on the bright side. What is the bright side, you may ask?

isthefnafmovieout reviews the fnaf movie (SPOILERS)
Pre-movie thoughts (written 10/25):
I get to see it a day early! YAY!
I might have hyped this movie up in my brain a little too much, because I'm SUPER anxious.
The polarizing reviews i was seeing throughout the day were definitely a little nerve wracking! Lots of good and bad reviews, lots of weird contridicting statements. I saw lots of people complaining about the lore being "wrong" or whatever but... Eh. It has already been established that this movie won't have the same lore as the games, so I won't mind any lore changes. They're like the Silver Eyes books, in their own seperate canon but with similarities to the games.
Overall Im keeping my hopes reasonably high. Horror films and video game adaptations tend to get a bad wrap from even the fairest critics. I'm a die-heard fnaf fan, have been for all 9 years of its existence. If Dawko loves it then I will love it I think 🫡
Okay, now with that out of the way...
Spoiler free review, posted on my letterboxd:
Tumblr media
Post-movie thoughts (written 10/26):
The way they incorporated Mike's dream sequences into the narrative was really interesting, how he tries to use his dreams to find out who took his brother. He and Abby were really sweet :) I like how their relationship drives the plot along, with how they befriend Abby but only as a front because they want her to "be like them," and how Mike is caught up in the past and realizes that he needs to focus on protecting Abby, not bringing his brother back. Its surprisingly emotional, i really resonated with their story. Josh Hutcherson and Piper Rubio both did well!
It's basically everything I expected, and I liked it! I think it's story was good, with its focus on childhood innocence.
Vanessa is great too! Different from her game counterpart, but thats okay! And the twist that she's actually William aftons daughter? Holy shit I gasped like I was watching a soap. Thats so interesting!! I loved how she just FELT suspicious. I know it's very different from the game lore, but I expected the movie to be, and I liked what they did! I got chills when Vanessa showed the picture of her and William to Mike and you could see her holding the plane that Mike's brother used to have.... my dad thought that was the creepiest part. Speaking of william btw...
Matthew Lillard, man. wow. What a great William Afton. They do some subtle implications that hes William in the beginning and if i didnt know it was him already i would've been surprised. He hams it up like he did with Stu Macher and it's great! I wish he was in it a little more, and they expanded a little more on Williams character through Vanessa, but yeah, he was good! I hope to see more of him in any sequels!
I wish the animatronics showed up a little more, thats probably my biggest critique or whatever. But they are so well made and cute. I liked how they befriended Abby, and that they rlly honed in on the animatronics being possessed by kids and that their violence is from William Aftons influence. I wish they went more into depth about how William influenced them though, and why it's all the pictures drawn of what happened that control their vision of what happened. What we did get from them though was so cool! Jim Henson did so well with these guys, they're so cute yet can be so scary.
The kills were pretty tame on the surface, as I expected, but some of the implications were quite disturbing to a point where it didn't rlly take away from it for me. Especially Max's, it gave me a "Ada in the laser room in the re4 seperate ways remake" vibes. Same with the security guards death to the faz-trap in the beginning.
There were some pacing issues, theyve definitely cut some things i wouldve liked to see, there was some goofiness (that fort making scene made me laugh so hard im sorry, it was cute though), and some story elements that needed a touch more expanding upon, but this movie was still really fun! For non-fans, honestly i dont know how they'reresponding as a whole besides those really weird reviews im seeing on rotten tomatoes and such, but I saw it with my dad, who knew very little going into it, and he liked it, especially the story with the missing kids! For fans... well, If you like fnaf, are are willing to forgive some lore changes for the sake of telling a coherent story, then you'll love it!
Also why was Matpat there lol. isthefnafmovieout, out. See you on the flipside.

Rody Soul Propaganda
I was gonna let someone else make this, but there’s been no other posts so I will step up to the plate. 
First and foremost, Rody Soul is one of the characters I have imprinted on the hardest. As an eldest child myself, I believe his character development and portrayal was perfect and he desperately deserves more attention in canon and manga. That being said, I will list below exactly what attributes I think make him a “best bnha character” qualifier, provide videos, and of course, share the link to vote for him once you inevitably decide that this boy needs to win. 
Tumblr media
He came from a pretty well-off, middle class family. So when his father disappeared and he was stuck living with his siblings, he could’ve easily complained about his lot in life and fallen apart. But he didn’t! We never see him bemoaning his financial problems, his main issues are with his father leaving and worrying over his siblings’ future
Even as a young boy we see he really loves and cares for his siblings, to the point where he’d rather spend time with them than alone. This not only works to explain his motives in the movie, but also is a great portrayal of eldest siblings. While we’re independent people, we grow up with our younger siblings for so long that there’s a special fondness and connection that can’t be replicated by anyone or anything. 
Rody constantly brings up that ‘he isn’t tied to any sense of morality’ like Deku, and straight up refuses to listen to the police when they order him to stop running. He really said ‘fvck the police my family come first,’ and he’s so valid for that
As a ‘morally grey’ character his actions are built up very consistently throughout the movie; he steals his boss’s bike to get to his mission quicker, participates in a jewelry store heist, jumps on top of a bus to avoid paying the bus fare, and contacts the villains who are trying to destroy the world just so he can return the case and go back to his siblings. You’d think this would make him predictable and stale, but no; there’s actually a lot of complexity to his motivations and decisions
We especially see that in his final choice, to defy Flect Turn and help Deku instead of taking Flect Turn’s offer, of sparing Otheo (where his siblings live) in exchange for the disc. When he’s lying on the ground, barely conscious after just shutting down Flect Turn’s bombs, he asks “Was I as cool as you?” to Deku, revealing that protecting his siblings isn’t his only goal. He also wants to be someone his siblings can admire and look up to, the way he used to look up to his father. By risking his siblings’ lives, he didn’t act out of character. He was simply striving his hardest to exceed their expectations and be the best model for them he could be, which honestly made me shed a few tears when I realized it. 
I haven’t even mentioned yet how queer-coded he is. Like this man is SO flamboyant and sly, he’s honestly a pleasure to watch just for his jokes and elegant animation. He’s constantly teasing and bantering with Deku throughout the film, and they have one of the most naturally pleasant and healthy dynamics I’ve seen in all of bnha. They bounce off each other so well which makes me wish he was canon even more
He has so much charm that Deku even chooses to save his random ass over completing his mission and returning to Endeavor, and this is DEKU we’re talking about. Mr. Does Everything by the Rules, Mr. Goodie Two Shoes, Mr. “Least Likely To End up On a Wanted List in a Foreign Country” DOES end up on a wanted list in a foreign country only because he decided to help Rody out 
His quirk is the bird, Pino, who expresses his emotions constantly. It is literally impossible for him to lie as a result, which I know some people think “thats a lame quirk” but it works so well for building him up as a character and giving him more depth. We know when he’s putting on a mask in front of Deku because Pino is freaking out when he does, and it’s especially clever how he covers Pino’s mouth when talking to his boss. It shows how, at the start of the movie, Rody was in a state where he was constantly stifling his emotions and true desires in order to carve a better future for his siblings, which makes his future acts even more poignant.
He gives off closeted homeschooled kid vibes in a /pos way
Oh yeah did I also mention he knows how to pilot planes and helicopters? Because he does, that’s just how badass he is
Just watch these videos

I love ur analysis of dsom. I read it a couple years ago and got so frustrated thinking "this is the book everyone is raving about??" The magic system and world has such potential but the characters drag it down. I remember a scene where Kell is up in his feelings about his whole. Incredibly fucked up "family situation". And Delilah is essentially like "well at least you HAVE a family". And the narrative seems to frame that interaction as her being cool and edgy and the voice of truth or whatever. And Kell is like. I guess youre right :( ill stop complaining. But the story doesnt grapple with that any further??? Doesnt use that moment to build out either character beyond "Delilah is so cool and also right (and an asshole but thats what makes her cool)" and "Kell's complex feelings about this are now solved/set aside after this clap back". Family is one of the themes of the book but even this scene doesnt really explore the concept in depth. I may be misremembering it but that one scene just summed up for me everything frustrating about the character writing and the way the story uses the characters. Maybe the issue is revisited in later books. I wouldnt know, bc very little about the writing makes me want to read any more.
Yeah!! Yeah!! That scene was… argh, you’re exactly right. The main source of frustration for Lila for me is that the narrative frames her as right almost always and especially in that instance. And like, if I’m willing to engage with it, it is a telling character moment of hypocrisy where Lila is lashing out in grief after losing Baron (?? I dont remember his name) and is displacing all those feelings onto Kell. But the way it’s handled, like you said, makes me assume that no, Schwab didn’t intend for it to be that deep. It’s so frustrating because the world and the characters have so much potential! With a few more drafts and edits this could be a really good book! But as it stands it’s a 400 page book with little to no plot, hardly any interesting character progression or arcs, boring flat fight scenes, and uninteresting prose. The masquerade scene is there bc she thought it sounded cool. The elements are there bc she thought atla is cool. The fake eye is there because she likes bebop. There’s no actual substance. I have read books half the length that have succeeded in all of these places. I’ve heard similar criticisms of her pacing in other books from people who did like darker shade so, idk, it sounds like she needs a better editor honestly.
And like, yeah, maybe this is revisited in later books, maybe her writing gets better, maybe the second book is fantastic. I honestly had a lot of the same criticisms when I read the Founders Trilogy, but the difference there was that i ADORED the characters and the world building. They were so solid that I HAD to continue even if i had some issues with the writing style and pacing. This series has none of that appeal for me. If she had ended it on a cliffhanger, if she had actually set up this world to be as dark and edgy as she thought it was, if Kell had to use his wits as a smuggler to survive in a place far from his family leading him to conclude that yes he does love them, if Lila had to fight to survive trapped in white london and then come to grips with her violent nature and that its not actually a positive, then I would be all over the rest of the series!! Idk, other reviews mentioned that they were disappointed with this after reading some of her other worlds like viscous, so maybe I’ll give that a try when I feel less burned.

I agree with everything non said but i think they missed a few points.
Its not that no creator can make anything perfect (while yes that is true since we're all human)
But its more of what the medium and genre the creator is trying to portray/show
You can't tell a horror/gorey themed and focused show to be more child friendly, that breaks the whole purpose.
Similar to how you can't tell a child friendly show to have heavy topics/themes that are 18+
People think that children should be exposed to those things to learn and while yea i agree to some extant, those same people seem to not realize the impact it could have to those childrens mental development.
But that topic is not the vocal point of this.
What i am trying to address is creators focused genre (you made a great point in the notes of monsta PSU universe being catered to specific audiences)
It is obvious, so so obvious that bbb is supposed to be a comedic feel good show, and that fact is actually part of its charm. Its why people remember so fondly about the old bbb series
And monsta has a story to tell, they gave a story that focused more on chatacters relationships and humor (og bbb series).
People wanted a more plot driven nerative and when it was given (galaxy series).
People are now upset because they want a character focused nerative and when that was also given an attempt (Fang's and Hang kasa's backstories)
People are now complaining its not enough and it should've been in the show not in comics
People are now complaining your show is boring, doesn't have depth, too child friendly, too many ads, and it should be this or that
People want more
And more
And more
Season 2 is already set in stone. We already know the story its going to tell. Yet theres still complaints it should go in a different directio- oh no wait you have to stay FAITHFUL to the comics. Do it exactly like in the comics but add this and that
These are people.
Stop treating them like workers and act as if people know best or they are now the boss.
Critics are fine, no show is perfect. But the moment it shift from "hey this is great, sadly it seems to be too A and B. Maybe you can...." and changes to "stop doing this and start doing this and this and that"
Thats a problem.
This is in no way directed to you or the anon, take your time with your AU, i do have a question. Do any of the power spheres still exist in your AU?
Another anon! Yes you
ARE
RIGHT!
Tumblr media
'But you don't understand! Why they not incorporated some of the scene from this issue!
'Why they make it too childish? Isn't this a bit weird for the future series?
'Why they put too many ads? One is enough right?
'Why they still kept Papa Zola? Where's the action?!
'Is Monsta now discrediting the Kokotaim gang with this issue? Why only Fang got his background character development?!
'Why—
Tumblr media
Why this and that did not matter when it's already been published publicly. Have you noticed how many times Monsta correcting their mistakes in the past for make this series a better show to please everyone? Rebranding their logo, reorganize how each chapters work and sensible? Boldly to make a deeper story and in depth situations from a simple show with just a basic troupe : 'a child that has superpowered friendly assistant for an adventure' ? We got lots of show with that btw, Doraemon and Pokémon being one of biggest example.
Uuuuuuurh I got carried away.
Some complaints are valid not gonna lie, but at the same time, it makes no sense when people wanting this and that, and this, and that.
In the end they want what they see and demand to do the same. And worse made a petition to authors for begging something what the fans want, not what the creators think.
It's... It's really unhealthy...
Like I said, Monsta did great job to expand from one series into other for catering different target audience. But they still linked into one grand show for a family show.
And as I said before, Monsta tried to use a marketing strategy that's different from the usual one for different demographic target area.
Risky for sure but hey, you cannot apply everything from every country culture to yours anyway.
Aside from that.
Oh oooooooooooooooooooh you're the anon that asking me about the power sphere! Innalillahi I forgot to answer you! I'm very sorry, anon! T^T
Where's the power spheres in this AU you ask?
Hmmm...
"it doesn't make sense...! You promised to keep power sphere save! People trust us! We trust you!"
"HHA HA HA! What I did, young man, is only to gather and reinvent of what my people stupidly use in that sizable sphere."
"What...?"
"Oh you don't know? Such a shame, your kind are using it worse than ours, don't you think?"
"Hey don't you dare—!"
"Do you?! With all the proof I gave to you, you are still defend it?!
I had hopes from you, _____..."

it should NOT be a hot take to recognize that smeyer is just... a really bad writer. even if you love twilight, you need to be able to understand how shallow it all is. the characters, the plot, etc. every time i bring any of that up to a twilight fan they get super defensive and they shouldnt imo 😭😭 she just doesnt know how to write characters with depth and flaws and an actual backstory and thats literally a big part of the charm
Lol, I'm 🤐🤣
There were some ways in which she succeeded in telling the story she cared about telling, and I have some amount of respect for specifically the fact that she was clearly just kind of doing whatever she wanted (Like, "I don't want to write action scenes, so I won't."), but the ways in which she failed to think of her characters' actions or behavior from anyone else's perspective seriously harmed a lot of what she was trying to do, which is why we get a lot of characters being praised for traits they never demonstrate and a lot of characters being disparaged for traits they never demonstrate, etc. The thing is, she knows how to write her protagonists being flawed, but she doesn't quite know how to perceive the flaws as such in any real way, which is why any character who holds something against the protagonists is wrong and also bad.
For me, I don't mind her areas of ineptitude in and of themselves, but a symptom of her self-centered writing style is that we end up with a lot of casual racism and "If you're not a baby factory then you're not a woman" stuff, which became a steeply increasing problem as the series went on. Like, if it was just "A lot of the wording is very silly," or "She is clearly writing this with a target audience of Stephenie Meyer," then honestly Steph live your truth and write your self-indulgent teen fantasy, but a lot of the stuff that stowed away there was super insidious.
I wish I could just have a comprehensive list about everything people have complained about Twilight for and just go through it one by one and say whether it's actually a problem. Like, the sparkling? Awesome. I love it. The child grooming? If there was a good way to handle that concept, it was certainly, certainly not used!!

it's star trek update time. last night we watched ds9's "profit and loss" and tng's "genesis."
profit and loss (ds9):
i was EATING! what an amazing episode. even though there was lots of quark and he's not normally my favorite
entire section with quark on his knees begging or whatever. that post thats like "gay people never flirt normally it's always shit like this"
my favorite part was that, in spite of all quark's begging and bribery, odo was like "yeah no i was gonna disobey orders anyway bc justice. this was fun though thanks" like my absolute KING and best friend odo startrek.
also, odo's complete and total disdain for the idea of romance........please. he's SOMEWHERE on the ace and/or aro spectrum. idk where but he is
AND GARAK! i'm sad he only had one conversation with bashir but i was so excited to see him and find out even a little bit more about him. i was like aw cm,on hes harmless hes just a little guy hes a gay little tailor and then they strongly implied he used to be an assassin and i had to pause the episode bc i got lightheaded
at first i didnt understand the end...like he informed on them and was gonna kill them to get back to cardassia and then just RANDOMLY changed his mind? but he told you what he was gonna do in his very first scene. it's loyalty to the state before loyalty to loved ones - or, yes, even the self. his 180 was a little abrupt, but i totally got it once i thought about it. the depth of the love he has for a place that ??? tossed him out ??? i guess? is pretty amazing
my only real complain about this episode was that they fumbled quark a little. that episode where he was in a quasi-romance with that cross-dressing ferengi actually gave us a good set-up - he does have a soul/conscience/whatever and IS capable of caring about other people, even more more than he cares about his assets (like the bar) - in both this episode and that one, he was perfectly willing to throw away the bar for a love interest. but in that other episode, he wasn't willing to live and be with that other ferengi unless she conformed to HIS idea of how women should be. in this one, he was briefly entertaining the idea of throwing away his entire life to go fight this lady's cause with her (which i don't think he could have followed through with), but absolutely nobody brought up "if you love her you have to give her agency and let her do what she wants ie leave" or at the VERY least "it's creepy/selfish to try and blackmail her into more or less marrying you." like, no, you don't need to spoonfeed the audience, WE know it's creepy, but her students going "yeah no let her stay!" was bonkers. and then when he did let her leave (and decided not to go with her even though he'd offered to do that earlier) it was just because he...had no choice?
idk, i feel like "quark sold food to starving bajorans even though it was illegal" does a LOT to humanize him, and in a GREAT way because plausibly he could go "yeah well the bajorans had money and i like money" to deny he has a conscience or whatever. AND IT WAS A THROWAWAY LINE. meanwhile he spent half this episode being creepy to this poor cardassian lady and it kind of undoes all that...? i'm not saying i DON'T want quark to be selfish and secretly a goody two-shoes, but i do want him to care about SOMETHING in a way that's like, if not totally unselfish, at least in a manner that has depth. "i like this lady so i want her to stay here forever and forget logic and also whatever she wants" is pretty much the least complex kind of romance you could give him. it works as a STARTING point, but if the endpoint is him just letting her leave because he quite literally has no choice, there wasn't much of a point to any of it plotwise, even if his non-sexist antics were extremely fun to watch in this episode
genesis (tng):
if spot transformed into an iguana right as she was finished giving birth to her kittens and they were a day old when data and picard found them, that means those newborn kittens did not eat for a full 24 hours and picard and data left them in data's quarters without feeding them or caring for them at all, which is perhaps the gravest sin either of them has ever committed
newborn kittens can only last a few hours without nursing - after half a day, they'd all be gone. and SOMEHOW they're still alive even though NO ONE HAS FED THEM and they don't even stop to feed them like we SAW them leave you can't even pretend they just did it offscreen between scenes. like are you kidding
ALSO, spot and all the other cats aboard this fucking spaceship should be fixed??? i hate to accuse my best friend data of being an irresponsible pet parent but there it is :/
i would never take my cats into space. they don't even like car rides. how can you drive this ship into a planet when there are children AND CATS aboard?? i hate tng so deeply
anyway, doing all of that to worf was racist and worf biting deanna in the bath was rapey. no wonder the actors hated worf e deanna almost every single one of their scenes together has been awful. -1000000/10 this might be my least favorite episode of tng i've ever watched
TONIGHT: ds9's "blood oath" and tng's "journey's end" and yes ik what that one is about and i am full of dread

So, have you read Re:Zero Mimagau IF/Genderbent If? What do you think of this if route? A lot of people have complained that it's boring because it's basically just changing the names and keeping the general plot the same, but I personally kinda like it a lot?I didn't expect Tappei this troll to come up with something like that,but maybe he just ran out of ideas and improvised...
Some of the little details that were changed because of the gender reversed were interesting, like ram jokes on subaru are more refined and less aggressive in general ;male rem behaviour after (s)he was saved changes from female rem into a positive, smiling and relaxed version of him, but they way he bonds with subaru is different from rem, to avoid problems(sexual offenders), imagine it kind of like reinhardt is with felt etc.
But I'm a bit disappointed with the male Emilia's personality, I personally thought that since he's a male elf he'd be a bit more cold and reticent than was in the main canon, and then the male version of satella's name is actually "Luna"! I don't know if Tappei is hinting at something or he's just trying to troll with us lol
Although I enjoyed Mimagau IF, but some of the later plots and scenes can be very weird and even creepy because of the whole gender reversed.
my apologies it took a long while for me to answer to this ask T^T i put it in my drafts bc i wanted to think about the topic in depth bc this is Super interesting..... and then i forgot about it on and off oops HAH. but no i havent read the genderbend if!! i WOULD but there is only so many rezero side stories i can get to and so mimiagau is only at the bottom of the list bc like you said the plot is similar to canon anyway and i got other side stories i need to finish!! but im Definitely intrigued by mimiagau thats for sure <3
HAH yeah maybe tappei ran out of ideas and decided to make a genderbend au for funsies but he Has shown an interest in playing with gender a bit via the natsumi arc..... and yeah keeping mimiagaus plot similar to canon is, you know, a good way to save time and effort on it but i 1. really adore all the names that tappei chose for everyone, given the vast majority of characters are gonna have their names changed bc biological sex changed, and 2. i also appreciate the minor changes tappei makes bc it Makes Sense thatd it change bc its a genderbend au. some things will just Inevitably change bc of that fact, yeah. bc of societal gender norms and other things like that. plus the fantasy worlds opinions on gender are interesting bc its Definitely a mixed bag....... like how rezero in general is a mixed bag in terms of how misogynistic or not it wants to be. like rezero will read like r/menwritingwomen bc of all the times tappei INSISTS on mentioning boobs, or female characters sometimes having questionable designs, but then rezero turns around and creates truly iconic characters like echidna or anastasia or *insert many other great female characters here* aljsdlf or the beautiful character arcs that beatrice and emilia have in arc 4 for example HAH.... a mixed bag for sure!! and the fantasy world has all sorts of stuff... like you know theres all the world ending powers and powerful positions various people can have regardless of gender, the royal candidates in canon being all women but theyre referred to as "kings" either way, but then theres stuff like crusch wearing masculine clothing being a Big Deal + general emphasis on ladylike behavior, etc etc... also homophobia and other such things like that exists HAH. so its interesting to me.
again i havent read genderbend if but the changes you did mention are interesting yes!! and it makes sense... male ram making more aggressive jokes with female subaru Would be more frowned upon and you know the way male ram and rem present themselves would be more frowned upon if they acted exactly the same as they do in canon. like you said, theres just different expectations there bc their genders are flipped o.O societal expectations both from us the viewer, the world of rezero, and tappei which is very much what the point of a genderbend au is - i mean the moment you make a genderbend au it shows your opinion on gender whether you like it or not i think :o youd definitely have to think on how thatd change the plot in minor or major ways!! and its like every person is gonna have a different take on rezero genderbend au fr T^T which i also find super interesting.
yeah so as for male emilia / emilio - the idea of him being more cold compared to canon is fascinating.... i have slightly mixed feelings on it though bc im like "WAIT BUT WHICH DETAILS WOULD CHANGE AND WHICH DETAILS WOULD NOT CHANGE BC OF THE GENDERBENDING" as i said earlier. like you could go in so many directions with this. is (female) puck gonna be more lenient with emilio???? is female puck gonna be just as controlling as male puck in the same exact way, or is it different since emilios a boy with slightly different societal expectations????? would luna and emilio by proxy be feared Even More bc theyre guys now?? (probably not bc rezero fantasy world just recognizes Power above all else right bc theres equality there. but still important to ponder about ig.)
but yeah anyway SO MANY QUESTIONS are swirling around in my brain about this bc genderbend au = you can do SO MUCH with this. so much. but yeah as for emilio, my personal thoughts on it is that emilia and reinhard in canon mirror each other A LOT. they have softer personalities partly bc of their trauma helping to shape them, partly bc thats just who they are, partly bc theyre kind of admired (reinhard) and feared (reinhard and emilia) by the whole world so of course theyre gonna be softer to combat that bc Anything they do can be taken the wrong way. so like while i think adelheid might be a little softer than reinhard and emilio might be like a little more uptight and formal than emilia bc Societal Things i Personally think emilio and adelheid would likely still act pretty similar to their canon selves. bc emilia does have moments where she acts cold or a bit uptight so maybe emilio would have more of those moments bc that (being Softer and vulnerable) would Probably be a bit more frowned upon as a boy yeah!!! while adelheid i can see having to balance like. noblewoman expectations vs sword saint expectations too bc the energy i get from canon is that attitudes towards sword saints are mainly the same (intimidation,, fear,,, admiration,,, theyre tools for the government,, etc,,,) but the vibes to me is like. female sword saints vs male sword saints are seen a Little differently. just a little bit. if that makes sense. more societal norms at play here HAH. then again there Are female knights theyre just not on screen that much unless youre a sword saint.
and luna!! :D great name imo i love that name choice. i think its probably bc emisuba / emilias moon motif in canon + tappei had to find an astrology name aljsdlfj i wonder if he has more reasons to choose luna though? or maybe the dude was just like "hmmm i cant keep satella ig...." though tbh i kind of thought hed just keep satella pfft cool that he chose luna. bc again - emisuba moon motif!! :o bc the phrase "the moon is beautiful isnt it" = "i love you" also................. and yeah tappeis a troll too theres that HAH
as for the later plot beats being weird and creepy bc of gender reversal - they were already like. weird in canon though tbh with everyones canon genders aljdsfljsdlfj i think its just more apparent with gender reversal partly bc societal things and partly bc maybeee male characters torturing female characters happens often enough throughout fiction anyway?? not that the other way around doesnt happen but like. i dont know how to explains this HAH but yeah gender reversal makes things feel a little wack but it was ALREADY wack in canon tbh. i think as long as its treated with nuance its fine though hah and also as long as. subaru doesnt get magically tortured More bc shes a girl now. if that makes sense. no misogyny or misandry please!! though. im gonna be real i think tappei would be more fair with the now male cast in genderbend if. just bc rezero and its tendency to either hate or love women either on purpose or on accident HAH.
OK ALSO AS FOR SUBARU people always have different takes on genderbend subaru (my take is that subarus ALWAYS genderqueer either way okay...) and i think its interesting how people interpret subarus like. interest in isekai too + subarus personality in general......... like what changes bc of the gender change??? is subaru still interested in the same KIND of isekai stories?? does subaru gravitate towards shoujo now or is subaru still like into more shounen esque things bc either one can happen!!!!!!! is subarus personality more disapproved of now that shes a girl or is it less disapproved of - in the sense that people might interpret a girl doing it vs a guy doing it differently. and then theres audience opinions too bc like if subaru WAS a girl from the beginning people might have different opinions on her but also some people think subarus annoying either way (which fills me with sadness...). but also fem subaru had HER OWN NATSUMI ARCS OKAY... THIS IS REAL TO ME. TAPPEI BETTER HAVE INCLUDED IT. BUT ANYWAY yeah. interesting ways to take genderbend aus theres a gazillion different directions you can go in. this was not very coherent i think but genderbend aus are very interesting to me!!! though of course my own opinions and experiences regarding gender and gender roles are showing aljsdflj bc that IS the nature of genderbend aus.
ALSO toxic masculinity in rezero is like. a Very Important thing with characters like subaru and julius so its like. youre gonna have to find a way to explore that in Different ways with genderbend au bc those kinds of issues arent gonna go away. theyre gonna manifest a bit differently, probably. and its probably gonna affect the Now Male cast too.

Oh, death course, okay. Do the Toads also do this???
Okay so this is what we're doing now. Doesn't like mushrooms. Forcefed it. Now its bodyhorror??? He accepted this very quickly. Please give me Luigi ba- HOW DARE YOU USE "HOLDING OUT FOR A HERO" YOU WILL NEVER BE SHREK 2
Is it gonna be that he can do it better when he doesn't eat the mushroom because we saw him to parkour good earlier
No he just needed to montage okay. ... No he got got. Okay they're friends now. YAY BOWSER TIME, BREATHE SOME LIFE BACK INTO ME JACK oh this is immediately better
What are those things though?
Most powerful turtle in the world? Ahem, a certain group of Heroes In Half-Shells would like a word, bitch
Oh Bowser is into, oh fuck what's the term uhhhh not neko girls that's cats uhhhhhhh not yandere TSUNDERE right? Whatever the Immovable Tiara line was funny but didn't elicit a laugh
Whomst is voicing these Koopas I KNOW HIM he does cartoons... who is thissssss
Okay so thats just- Koopa's just don't need Skin. Understood. That was also funny.
Doesn't sound anything like Jack Black but like in a Good Way, that ruled. LUIGI IS BACK
AWWWWW TINY BROS FLASHBACK I too will tackle the child bullying Luigi as Mario did
The audio mixing in that "They're all counting on us! No pressure?" Was wild and bad.
Ouch Peach just kick him in the nuts why dontcha. He doesn't even care- Toad tagged along??? Okay um I don't know if I liked you that much Toad.
LOTR style landscape montage, nice, kind of still giving Latte Foam When You Wanted A Full Sip but whatevs.
Oh the song everyone went nuts for- ah there's Jack Black lol. Well that was short! God this Koopa is the fucking Fongoids!!!!!!!!!!!!
JAM WITH ME PFFFFFT Oh he's settled in for a gossip sesh- nope finger breaking sesh. Bowser is a Sith I guess.
I REALLY am not feeling the weight of Mario and Luigi being separated tbh. Not at all.
So did she come from a different pipe or did she fall down the sewer????? So is this another dimension or just another planet...
I'd complain about the shallow romance foundation but its not lacking depth more than anything else so far in this movie.
God Luigi is having The Worst Day. This dymanic is already way better because Liigi and Bowser feel actually like... Characterized. And like their VAs are. Trying.
OH LUIGI YOU GAVE UP SO FAST lol "They do if they have good taste."
That was it??? That was all the Luigi and Bowser?!?! Dammit
This star is... weird. What's your deal, little guy?
Jungle Book Moment.
"You ready?" "Euh... sure?" That about sums up the energy of this movie anytime its not on Bowser or Luigi.

3, 6, 9, 10, 13, 17, and 25 for the ask game? 🥰
woah thank you!!!
3. screenshot or description of the worst take you've seen on tumblr
i remember seeing a post a WHILE ago (not sure if it was actually on here or somewhere else) stating that anyone who says "the killjoys aren't mcr" is just lying to excuse writing rpf. which already on its own is just Incorrect, but then their evidence for this argument was essentially that, if the killjoys weren't mcr then more ppl would ship party/kobra bc there's nothing in canon that says they're siblings 💀
6. which ship fans are the most annoying?
i think id have to say funpoison AND I SHIP FUNPOISON OKAY- i just think they're by far the most popular ship and they tend to be the default dd ship for most ppl, which leads a lot of especially newer fans to bring the up at Every Possible Moment even when the content they're interacting with isn't funpoison based (stuff like "wow i loved this story but i think id work better if it was funpoison instead of poisonstar"). its not a super huge or common occurrence, but in comparison to fans of other ships i think funpoison fans are just more likely to be annoying like that bc theres a lot more of them and its the main ship for new fans
9. worst part of canon
THE RACISM. the whole "japan takes over the world" thing is a gross and racist trope that stems from WWII propaganda, the way the director in particular is portrayed in the comics is just FILLED with racist stereotypes of east asian women, and the comics in general severely lack actual characters of color. this post and this post go a lot more in depth into these issues and id highly recommend reading them for those who havent heard a lot on this subject
10. worst part of fanon
ALSO THE RACISM. the best part of fanworks is that creators have the ability to improve upon parts of the original text in their own works, and yet there is is this refusal from white fans that fans of color have pointed out time and time again to acknowledge said racism in canon and how it carries over into fanon works. i know i was absolutely guilty of this in the past and im trying to do better, and i know the only way for us white fans to do better is to LISTEN TO PEOPLE OF COLOR. stop using aave as killjoy slang, stop turning jet star into the motherly one/making him an overbearing caretaker, stop recycling racist shit from the comics in fanart/fics
13. worst blorbofication
jet star. people just looooove giving my poor girl ZERO personality aide from "oh they're the mom friend" "oh they give the best advice" "oh she the one who takes care of the girl" LITERALLY SHUT UP AND GIVE HIM AN ACTUAL CHARACTER TRAIT FOR ONCE PLEAAASE. GIVE HIM SOME DEPTH SOME STORY WRITE HIM LIKE A REAL FUCKING PERSON
17. there should be more of this type of fic/art
SHOWPOISON!!! i love them sm they're such an underrated ship imo, i would KILL to see more of them. also i need more art/stories of ghoul and kobra just fucking around and doing dumb shit together i LIVE for that shit and there will NEVER be enough for me THEYRE IDIOTS AND I LOVE THEM AND I NEED TO SEE THEM BEING DUMB TOGETHER
25. common fandom complain that you're sick of hearing
uhhhh yk i honestly cant rlly think of a common complaint thats not actual valid criticism.. OH maybe ppl who talk about actually genuinely wanting a danger days tv show. we have such a good thing going here with the lack of canon there is NO WAY any possible show they could make would be a good idea that wouldn't cause massive chaos in this fandom. and like i reallllly dont trust gerard or netflix or whoever the fuck would be in charge of this show to actually make it good im sorry i just dont its a bad idea on all fronts we gotta stop unironically talking about it 😭

Manhwa: Depths of Malice
Tags: Smut, NSFW
This manhwa is an abso lute banger. Its fun, its satisfying, hot people, hot FL who's a psycho as well as a schemer. Hot ML, who's also psycho. Power couple and all that.
This is a rant as well as an appreciation post.
Tumblr media
First off, the FL, Verta, is dead set on revenge and SPOILER she gets revenge. Its so satisfying to read. And I think its so refreshing
Verta doesn't hide who she is. She actively gets revenge on those who wronged her. And she's a good actress. No scratch that, a superb actress! She has people around her thumb. Its honestly terrifying.
Another thing is, she doesn't care about other people. She doesn't care who she has to use or take down to get her revenge. And thats so badass. Its so refreshing to see a FL like this, who isnt just rude or puting up a facade. She's here to slay and we're here for it!
Tumblr media
And most of the men here are awful. Just horrible human beings.
Exhibit A:
Lawrence, her then-fiancee
Tumblr media
This bastard enjoys watching other me violate her. Specfically bis subordinate Baron Jacob. Honestly an ass. He dies by the way. Killed by Jacob beating him to death, due to a drug that increases one's stamina (that Verta gave).
Exhibit B:
Jacob
Tumblr media
He's a sexy motherfucker. He's in love with Verta, but he cant do anything to help as he's under Lawrence. No excuse though. The fandom collectively agrees thst he's a prick. Love or no love, he let her be hurt. Due to the drug, He ends up killing Lawrence in a rage. Goes to prison.
Exhibit C:
Marquis Proud Carter
Tumblr media
Another sexy motherfucker.
Caused Verta's (before posessing her body) mother do kill herself. A pedophile. Kidnapped a princess to make her his love-toy. Instigated most of her suffering. Gets exposed and executed in the end. Die you bastard!
Exhibit D:
Baron Ralph Maximilian
A mildly good-looking bastard.
Tumblr media
Tries to violate Verta. Is a prick. I dont like him. Personality like shit. Is canonically a looser (said by his wife) and utterly pathetic. Gets killed by Verta. So badass of her.
Lets forget about the bad boys, lets look at the good boys.
A: Nathan

He's actually not a ML. He's actually a subordinate of Proud Carter, which makes him our(the fandom's) enemy too, but from the comments I've read, he's not too bad, other than the fact that he's an underdog of Proud. I almost forgot! He's a deuch to his fiance. She's so sweet. But he doesn't like her for whatever reason. His loss.
But he's head over heels for Verta. If Im being honest I don't think he's that bad. He's actually kinda sweet. And like a softie for our FL. Too bad, FL had to seduce him in order to kill him so that she could use his body for someone else's vessel.

I honestly think he ranks second in my books as ML. We love a guy who'd die for us to be together in the afterlife (eventhough Verta technically tricked him). Honestly I love him.

He's the wizard that helps Verta. Good guy. Not a ML but still that pretty face earns some brownie points. Also, he uses Nathan's body as his vessel after he dies fir personal reasons. Very helpful to our FL. I liked his face. Not complaining cause Nathan's face is fine too.

A hottie. The actual ML. Marris Verta in the main story line. A physco in his own right. Tried killing his sister. Manipulative. Very sweet to Verta. Awesome chemistry between them both. Sexy. Very suave. Head over heels for FL. Honestly very good ML.
I have to make separate post for the Prince.
