#this is crazy for me since I’m not a big shipper | Explore Tumblr Posts and Blogs

Okay so I’m taking a risk here by talking about StaticMoth (as some fans will come at your throat if it’s mentioned), but let’s do it since I discovered something interesting.

The main thing being, I noticed that throughout these last few months, there has been a steady rise in StaticMoth fanart (which would make sense as StaticMoth has gotten a lot more shippers since the Instas were confirmed as noncanon), with Viv herself liking the more comedic/wholesome pieces.

Then upon closer inspection (aka, seeing one specific artist pop up constantly and finally deciding to check her profile), I realized that the Animation Director for Hazbin and Helluva has a LOT of their own StaticMoth fanart, with Viv even sometimes commenting on it.

So I’m now beginning to suspect that StaticMoth will NOT be as abusive as we were initially led to believe.

Check it out

(Smiles is the animation director for Hazbin and Joel is Val’s VA, just to be clear) that, and if you check this account you’ll see that they are all a BIG VoxVal fans, and Smiles also mentions how she worked with them a LOT in the show.

Now call me crazy, but I don’t think this woman, or any of them would ship StaticMoth as hard as they do if one was abusive and the other wanted to get away from them. And since the art that Viv likes is actually really sweet at times, I think that StaticMoth will actually be a functional couple.

I mean they also get a playmat and the only couples who get playmats are the canon functional/going to be functional couples (ie. Chaggie, Stolitz, M&M, and Fizzarozzie)

Also while I’m at it I may as well mention that they WERE included in her Valentines post. And in that gif, we have Vox is smiling evily at Val while he isn’t looking. That doesn’t really scream “abuse!!” to me.

Ironically, the last time I saw behavior like this from the team (Viv liking fan art, animators and storyboard artists making their own cute fan art, playmats before canon, etc), it was about Fizzarozzie, and they turned out to be the healthiest couple on the show.

Coincidence? I think not. (Art below is done by Hunter B, a storyboard revisionist and Vivziepop herself)

Now don’t get me wrong, I DONT think that they will be in any way healthy, but I don’t think it will be abusive. Or if it turns out Val does hit Vox to the point of breaking his screen, I think Vox will in return rip his arm out. If they’re abusive, it will be on both ends.

And since Vox has been appearing more in trailers and promos than Val, I think he will be the bigger, more prominent character. And it has been confirmed by many that Vox will very much be as bad as Val. He’s the most powerful the the Vees, and is clearly the head of the group. At the very least, I highly, HIGHLY doubt he will be the uwu babygirl that some fans think.

I think StaticMoth will have a “evil couple” vibe where they probably aren’t head over heels, (their one true loves will almost definitely be money and themselves), but they have a blast bringing other people down together. They will be equally awful, we’ll hate them, but we will LOVE to hate them.

Or I’m dead wrong, and this post will age like milk.

seeing as it’s now been one year since the last chapter of slippery slopes was posted, i decided to make a big sappy post talking about what this fic has meant to me over the last two and a half years

i started writing slippery slopes after a bolt of inspiration struck me on this post. i’d tried writing my fair share of long fics prior, most of them remaining unpublished and all of them unfinished. i’m not quite sure what made me think i could write slippery slopes other than a strong desire to write the alenoah fic i wanted to read but that didn’t exist at the time. slippery slopes was the 30th fic posted in the alenoah tag, which didn’t have any finished long fics at the time. i think if you told 2021 pj that in two years there would be over 600 alenoah fics, many of them tdwt rewrites, their head would explode.

i honestly had no idea what i was jumping into when i started writing slippery slopes. looking back, i was very insecure about my writing. i’d actually forgotten about that until i was reading some posts i’d made while i was still writing it, where i wondered if i was going to be able to pull off the miscommunication plotline and the unplanned alecourtney friendship. almost every announcement of a chapter draft being completed included me saying i felt weird about it, or thought it was bad. i felt incredibly uncomfortable writing serious angst and when that started playing an important role in the fic at around chapter seven i feared that my writing was awful and other people would dislike it the way i had. i genuinely don’t think it hit me that slippery slopes was a popular fic until a few months before it became the most kudosed fic on ao3.

back then, i was able to understand why other people liked slippery slopes, but i couldn’t read it without cringing. i’m not sure when exactly the switch flipped—probably after i finally finished it and was able to distance myself from the writing process—but it became a fic that i’m incredibly proud of. i can reread it now and enjoy it without cringing in the slightest. i was able to see my writing as good, and well-crafted. i will always appreciate slippery slopes as a fic where i grew incredibly as a writer. i understand how to plan out long fics while still allowing for spontaneity. i can comfortably write angst. i feel strong in my choices for characterization and friendship even if it may seem unconventional. i have so much more confidence in my writing now, and a lot of that is thanks to you all.

other than desperately wanting an alenoah tdwt rewrite fic, a huge part of why i wrote slippery slopes was because i felt lonely in the td fandom and was hoping that this fic could connect me with more people out there. and boy oh boy it sure has. and not just the plethora of alenoah shippers—way more than i expected—but there were also people who didn’t ship alenoah, but still stayed for the story, and people who had never considered alenoah but gave my fic a chance and ended up shipping it anyway. when i didn’t believe my writing was good, there were many, many kind commenters who showed my fic love and encouraged me to keep going with it. and even now, there are commenters whose fresh excitement make me feel like all the time i spent on this fic was so, so worth it. and they all inspire me to keep writing.

i may be a good writer, but i don’t think i can ever fully express what everyone’s support has done for me. i still struggle to wrap my mind around the fact that there are dozens of drawings of my fic that you all have made! that’s crazy! i am so, so lucky to have such wonderful readers, and i hope you all know how incredibly grateful i am. slippery slopes would not exist without you. this was a joint effort. it’s amazing to me how a spontaneously started fic for a crackship ended up changing the total drama fandom landscape the way it did. who would’ve guessed that a simple whim to write an alenoah fic could become quite the slippery slope.

i’m so confused as to how everyone seemingly came to the collective consensus that the dream premiere was some huge pivotal moment/statement for taekook. i don’t rlly understand how them showing up to a movie premiere together is a huge deal? it’s not like they waltzed in holding hands or anything like that. it very well could have just been two close friends/bandmates going to a movie premiere together bc why not? if any two other members had gone to a movie premiere together it would be seen as completely platonic and normal so why is tkk going made out to be some crazy brave and “wow” moment for them? everyone knows they’re friends. is it just bc jk was shy? bc that’s pretty normal for him tbh especially given that it was his first public outing since being on hiatus for a long time and only doing weverse lives from his house/gym.

also everyone seems to have concluded that they were definitely intentionally wearing queer coded clothes when honestly their outfits were pretty normal. ppl just dug extensively into the background of every item they wore and found some far-off connection to queerness/tkk when rlly it’s so unlikely they planned each article of clothing out like that. bc for what? they’re not actually trying to come out so why would they plan queer coded outfits as some “secret sign” ? like ppl really think jungkook looked up the exact quotes of the print on his jacket and traced it back to being vaguely alluded to something queer? and then said to himself “yes this is what i’ll wear to show the world” ?? and ppl genuinely believe taehyung intentionally wore the brand juntae kim to symbolize the connection of their two names together…like rlly? it’s just a brand…we talk so much abt how shippers connecting clothes/accessories to prove a relationship is stupid yet we’re out here doing the same and making it one of our biggest moments?

don’t get me wrong i love the dream premiere, it was cute, but i rlly don’t get why it’s been made out to be THAT much of a big deal. like i get the kappa tshirts thing bc those r clearly the exact same shirt on the same day but in what way is going to a movie premiere together some “huge step” ?

Vibes, my friend. Vibes.

Let me start by saying I also don't put much into the clothing. They may have been styled for it, they may have chosen themselves. Who knows? But I also wouldn't be surprised to find out it was deliberate. Tae is knowledgeable about queer culture, British music and art, etc. I don't think it's a reach to assume he knows who Morrissey or Oscar Wilde are. But ultimately no, I'm not factoring it into my thinking.

I found videos of a couple of other times two members attended a thing together.

Joonie and Hobi at Love Your W 2022 photowall.

youtube

They do heart poses together but when you watch the video, they are both completely focused on posing for camera. I'm not implying they're not close but there's a business-like vibe to it. Joonie was there to perform, it's on schedule etc.

I also found Jimin and Hobi at Dior in Paris.

This video doesn't show it but they arrive seperately, do photowall seperately* then sit together at the runway. They're on schedule.

(* there are some pictures showing them together at photo wall but they're edited.)

These both feel a bit different to:

👉 An off schedule event to support Seojoon.

👉 Tae going to his best friends premiere and taking a plus one.

👉 Being together at all points of the event from arriving in same car to leaving together to then continue being together with Wooga after the event.

👉 Hyungsik and Wooshik posed alone and they're super close. This might be because Tae and JK are grouped as BTS though.

👉 The pair of them having a number of moments of eyes on each other rather than anywhere else.

👉 JKs extreme giggliness which, though I see your point about him being shy, seemed excessively nervous.

👉 The fancams of JK stopping and Tae encouraging him.

👉 JKs somewhat pensive live later.

👉 This picture:

(I know it's a still photograph of a millisecond in time. I'm just being a dork.)

Vibes.

Thanks anon. It's good to look at this stuff twice and compare. If you know any other times two of them attended something, let me know! 💜

Hi anon!

Personally, I don’t see Dream premiere as the ‘they’re making a statement’ some seem to think it is. I think it was important to them personally, because they got to do something just the two of them.. that would come closest to being couply as they publicly can. I think it’s something Tae especially wishes for and possibly this was a real moment for them because of that. Just.. being somewhere together knowing themselves that they are a couple.. I think it must’ve felt satisfying to a certain degree.

I don’t think it was their way of telling the public they are together. I don’t think they specifically chose those clothes to make a statement, rather I think it’s clothes they like from brands they like. I would like to say though that I think both Tae and Jk are aware of what’s behind the brands they choose. I don’t think it’s them making huge statements, but rather them having preferences which are based in them being queer. I also think Tae would be aware of the Oscar Wilde reference. To me that is much more pointed than the brand he’s wearing. They probably are aware of the way fandom scrutinizes everything they do and wear, and I believe the wearing of queer brands is a choice.

I don’t fully agree with your assessment of Jk being shy. Having seen him solo, I know that man is capable of moving past his shyness and introverted tendencies. I don’t think it’s something he unlearns during the times he isn’t in public much. BTS members have trained for these things, they have learned through experiences how to deal with being the focus of everyone. So for me his shyness during Dream does not stem from being in the public eye again after a while.

If I were to go all sappy (I’m gonna… fully aware that my interpretation of this doesn’t proof a thing 😂)… it’s just in the way they look at each other. The way Tae seems all proud and endeared by Jk. How they hold eye contact for a bit and then look away cutely. How Tae reassures Jk and Jk goes giggly. It’s soft to me in ways I maybe can’t explain correctly.

Hello Melon! I’ve been shamelessly stalking your blog lmao and I just? Loooooove you analysis of Sanji and of Sanji/Zoro dynamics. I’m a huge Zosan shipper lmao but also seeing them _objectively_ makes me insane because like? They’re so intertwined, their stories and characters are just so connected ever since the beginning. Like what you described of Sanji being inspired by Zoro’s fight w Mihawk, and now Zoro having the weight of Sanji’s life on his shoulders just- Aaaah yknow? And GOD finally I get someone that feels like Zoro needs a breaking point!!! I’ve discussed this w friends and they’re always like “but the nothing happened! And the begging to Mihawk!!” And I’m like no!!! That didn’t break Zoro!! If anything that made him stronger, wiser. I need to see that man break fr, and I have a (horrible, I might say since he’s one of my OP faves) feeling that Oda will eventually deliver, and we’ll suffer. I don’t even know what I wanted to say really lmao but yeah thanks so much for sharing all your thoughts about these two, big fan.

FRRR I NEED ZORO TO SUFFER!! NOW!! HE NEEDS A BREAKING BREAKING POINT WHERE HE FALLS TO HIS KNEES AND THE WORLD COLLAPSES AROUND HIM!! WHERE HE LOSES ALL COMPOSURE AND HAS NOTHING (HE THINKS) LEFT!!! I NEED IT SO BAD I NEED TO SEE ZORO REALLY SUFFER HRNNNGGG

Also THANK YOUUUU like yeah Zoro and Sanji as a ship BANGS but they also just have SUCH a good dynamic AS IS as well. It doesn't HAVE to be romantic by any means, but the push and pull they have while still being foils of each other and still having complete faith and comfort in the other is SOOOOOOOOOOOOO...UGHH!! They're sooo good Oda went CRAZY when he made those two up like DAMN! The perfect wings for REAL for real

I hope you know how much your Sabosopp art has altered my Sanuso/Sabosan shipper brain. To the point of creating the Sabosanuso tag and more than ready to spam every little thought I have about them there-- Going a bit crazy, honestly. Also!!!!!!! Love your art???? They look so cute in your style!!!! <333 Sabo listening to Usopp go on and on about his stories makes me melt <33

Thank youuu 💕

I read your post about them. It’s very cute.

The basis there for me was basically “well sabo wanted to be a writer right? usopps the story guy”

I also think Sabo should get to know the straw hats better. I think he would want to know his brother found good people to surround himself with. Bonus points since they’re all so fun and interesting.

Also I must admit that at the moment I’m kind of just putting Sabo next to other characters like I’m comparing paint swatches to see what fits. Sabo and Usopp was cute to me when I thought of it, Sabosan is also interesting because of how they parallel and then there’s probably some all blue symbolism since blue is Sabos color but like. (waves my hand.) big fan of sabolaw. big fan. saboala is also cute.

Anyway, thank you again. I’m glad I appear to have reached my target audience. If you post more or have any thoughts you’d like to share ab them I’d love to see ✌️

Other things to focus on in this season of HSMTMTS, because I’m kinda tired of seeing nothing but Rina vs Portwell in the tags.

1. Kourtney and her anxiety plotline. I love that they turned a “haha teens can’t survive without their phones” joke into something that actually means a lot to her, since she can’t communicate with her mom when she’s panicked. I even went back and watched Camp Rock (for the first time in forever), because they said it’s her comfort movie, and now I see why.

2. ELTON JOHN CASWELL!

3. Maddox and Jet’s relationship. I LOVE SIBLING STORIES! Their past is infinitely more interesting to me than the love triangles. If love triangles are your jam, that’s great, but I LOVE SIBLING DRAMA! I think it’s partially because they give me Connor and Zoe Murphy vibes from Dear Evan Hansen.

4. Ashlyn’s “make way for Belle” attitude. I was really annoyed with her at the beginning of the season, but now I think this is a valid arc for her to go through. When you’ve spent a lot of time playing side characters, then suddenly get the lead (when you’re not someone who is normally cast as a “princess” type), then get put in the ensemble during something you saw as your big break, it can be...a lot to process. She’s had an entire season of Big Red telling her how amazing she is (and she IS amazing), but something every theater kid needs to learn is that every show is different. You will not always be the lead. You will not always be in the background. Nothing is certain in theater.

5. ELTON JOHN CASWELL!

6. Ashlyn is definitely going to be bi now. Realizing you have feelings for someone of the same gender while you’re already in a very happy relationship is a crazy journey to go on, and I want to see her deal with her feelings (but I swear if she and Big Red break up, I’ll cry).

7. Everything going on between Ricky and Jet. I love that Ricky is a full fledged theater kid now, and he sees so much of himself in Jet. I love that he’s trying to bring Jet into this world (and yes, Ricky is also a bi disaster, you love to see it).

8. ELTON JOHN CASWELL!!!!

9. I really hope they don’t drop Carlos being angry at always being an inanimate comedic character and trying to change the cast list. I wonder if this will come back at some point now that they are specifically trying to stir up drama.

10. I don’t have anything against Val’s character. I like Meg Donnelly, and I was super excited for her to be in the show...but she isn’t serving too much of a purpose right now other than to push Gina and EJ’s plotline foreword. I want to see more of her.

11. This season is really showing how much pressure you can put on one person before he snaps. Let EJ take a nap.

12. I feel like there could have been an opportunity for Ashlyn to be kind of upset at not being cast as Elsa, specifically because she and Gina have always had the more sisterly bond. I feel like they’re so much farther away this season.

13. What’s up between Kourtney and Jet? They keep dropping little “blink and you’ll miss it” interactions between them. Don’t know if it’s a couple thing or a friendship thing, but I think it’s kind of cute!

So anyway, I’m happy the shippers are having fun, but this is where I’m at right now...

#hsmtmts #high school musical the musical the series #i think i'm the only one who didn't see the elton john reveal coming #i'm over here looking for gifs of young jet and maddox in a sea of rina and portwell

Episode 1: Seeing Ash after watching Horizons. My heart wasn’t ready for this y’all. Even the narrator is gonna make me cry hhhh 🥺. Looking back, I do love seeing Pikachu’s past but at the same time, was it really that… necessary? It didn’t add that much but maybe that’s just me. It’s still cute seeing him as a Pichu regardless. Now the journey starts today is an absolute banger. This song doesn’t get enough credit and I’m tired of not seeing any love for it. Kangaskhan feeding Pichu the Oran berry. Cuteness overload. The whole Delia scene of her patting Pikachu hits different when you realize that’s what Kangaskhan did to help Pichu sleep. I think a lot of people forget that Ash and Serena didn’t attend the same camp. Goh and Chloe went first and the next time, Ash went and encountered Serena. It’s weird that younger Goh has the same voice as older Goh. Doesn’t match his age and it’s throwing me off. At least Chloe sounds a bit younger. I hope this rewatch will help me understand Goh but at the moment, I’m still not that big on him, sorry. I love Chloe’s sass. Wish we got to see her sass alongside Serena’s. Also I’m sorry but I’m just gonna stay it. Goh and Chloe = Childhood friends. Ash and Serena =/= childhood friends. We only knew one confirmed encounter Ash and Serena had which we see multiple instances of Goh and Chloe interacting when they were younger. So realistically, a childhood encounter best fits Ash and Serena. Plus I feel Ash probably would’ve remembered a childhood friend right away but Serena was more of a stranger(not trying to start a war, it’s just a personal irk of mine when people say Ash and Serena had a past like Goh and Chloe when that’s pretty clearly not the case ^^;). Kinda wish that since Journeys was Ash and Pikachu’s last series, that they would give us a Pikachu and Kangaskhan reunion. One of the ones most needed alongside Ambipom. Like imagine during the last episode of MPM, they encounter the Kangaskhan and their journey in a way ended where it began. That would be an emotional fanfic(someone make it happen! 😭). I love seeing the same scene from I choose you. I think this episode really gave a lot of hints that it was the last for Ash and Pikachu. Pikachu backstory, callback to the beginning and even showing a scene similar to their very last.

Episode 2: Pikachu trying to wake Ash by slapping and electrocuting him is a mood. Something I think pet owners can relate to. One of my dogs barks at me while the other will rub his scent all over you and the bed, attack you with kisses and sometimes scratch the hell out of your head. Delia getting excited over seeing the shops. Imagine a shopping spree between her and the Pokegirls(especially the ones who love to shop). YAMPER. Boy I sure do hope it doesn’t get pushed aside and forgotten about for episodes at a time. Chloe just walking past Ash dead on the stairs. That’s a mood too. Oh and yes, we stan Chloe here. Yes she had wasted potential but I still enjoyed her. And yes again that includes Eevee and the eeveelution focused episodes. Who would win a sass off, Misty, Iris, Serena or Chloe? How can they predict a super rare Pokemon showing up?? Like what? XD. Psyduck showing up and just staring at Goh makes me smile every time. I’ve really grown to love Psyduck. Think it’s time I got a plushie of him. If I remember correctly, doesn’t Lugia end up being revealed as Mew? Do you think Lugia is a Satogou shipper? Random question but Pokémon do seem to ship people. Rainbow scene with Ash and Goh!! I may not be that big on Goh but I can’t deny how great of a ship Ash x Goh is. They got some crazy hints. I think Goh blushes at Ash just as much as Serena did. Aw Horsea! I don’t bring up Horsea enough. I’m actually a fan of the Pokemon. Have been since watching Misty’s Horsea as a kid. Ash being annoyed with his mom XD. If Goh did pick a Kanto starter, who do you think he would choose? I could see him being a Squirtle person tbh

my fav podcost is the one with janet/zack d Dante because for so long ive heard zutaras call aang losing appa =throwing a temper tantrum/ no big deal/ horrible that he compared it to katara losing her mother.. and Zukos VA talks about how r important appa was to the group since without em there is no story the gaang can't go anywhere they're stuck.. they did almost die in anon without him in that desert.. Appa was a very important member of the group and zuts always treat him like garbage and it drives me crazy how they can be so cold to such a lovely animal while claming to be the more compassioate/caring side too.. i'll never understand that fandom

bonus for zack telling dante zutara was all in his head.. its so cool they managed to find aangs voice actor id love for him to cameo in those movies somehow but it probably wont happen

no, you don’t understand… appa is only narratively significant to them when he’s spending his time bringing them together, such as in episodes like the southern raiders or that one image when they’re sleeping together on appa. other than that? appa’s deadweight, “just a pet,” has no relevance to the gaang, etc.

good on dante for highlighting the importance of appa! additionally, in comic con revolution 2023, mae whitman went on and on about how amazing appa was and how important he was to the gaang - in addition to (jokingly) berating zach for not choosing appa as his other favourite character. if the captains of their ship - dante and mae - love appa endlessly and understand his importance narratively, you’d think that would spark some sort of realization inside of them.

also zach was hilarious for saying that, regardless of the amount of shit he got from the shippers. it’s very clear that zach and dante are just joking with one another and clearly like to poke fun at each other on when it comes to ships. I saw many comments stating that zach was bitter, jealous, upset, rude, etc. he’s a grown ass man who just learned what shipping was like 2 years ago. he’s clearly just joking. even if he wasn’t, who cares? I’m sure the other VAs can stroke their egos. just go rewatch the zutara tiktoks by dante.

omg ok since you gave me permission!!

MCU thoughts

Disservice to Bucky

I remember someone said wow Bucky spoke in the Falcon show more than he has in the whole MCU like exactly bitch let that man speak, he didn’t ask to be on the run and confused and scared AGAIN and so you’re telling me Stucky are gonna fall in love right after that man stops getting brainwashed absolutely not if he wasn’t into Steve when he was a stick then that’s not gonna change what cause now he has muscles? Like WHAT also the way stucky stunts both Steve and Bucky’s growth of any kind! Like maybe if they were murderers with a shared madness that type of obsession and isolation after “finding each other again” would be cute but absolutely not

Disservice to Tony

Tony was your fucking friend (and full disclaimer I’m a Steve/Tony shipper) but like you really are gonna unveil all these emotions about Tony and Howard and his dad “building Steve” alongside steve learning about the modern world and finding his footing and then the SECOND Bucky reappears appears have Steve be like yea let’s kill Tony WHAT

Disservice to Steve

You’re going to tell me that up until then Steve, who called out what was going on when he woke up from ice was, who demanded that he be allowed to figure shit out on his own is gonna silence Bucky and be like actually no decision making for you these people who took me in and were my friends and helped me find a current purpose in this crazy world literally mean nothing to me like ok what?? can’t even have a cup of coffee or something to let everyone chat?

This is sooo incoherent I’m sorry but I’m still raging about MCU characterizations and stucky shippers are DELUSIONAL

Okau to continue off from the last ask I just answered, yk how caws is all oh gee captain America learns once again that he’s the only trustworthy person in a sea of foreign controlled enemies wah wah wah and maybe that would stand alone better if as you detail ca3:cw wasn’t the worst fucking movie of all time but bc it is we’re left believing that somehow what Steve gets from that experience is that he alone knows what’s best for the world and he must do whatever it takes to lead the UN to understand captain America alone understands corruption and justice. FXGFGCHFHB LIKE. and then bc of caws all these ppl were like wah it’s not Steve’s fault that he doesn’t trust anyone 😢 when the movie gives the impression that it was not in fact even the US leading the charge for that one since they were already controlling the superheroes anyway like the avengers are government pet project but he doesn’t have an issue until the rest of the world wants a say in what captain America is doing. GIVE ME A BREAK. NONE OF THEM TRUST ANYONEEEEEEEEEEEE THEYRE ALL CRAZY HE IS NOT SPECIAL. see comics Steve is established as enough of an asshole that you can have him being shitty without sacrificing his overall characterization but they whitewashed mcu Steve so much that this much assholery is just shitty writing. And when you have cacw come right after caws it’s exceedingly clear that the entire point of winter soldier was to set up Steve’s paranoia but all it ends up being is imperialism. AND DO YOU KNOW HOW EXTRA IMPERIALIST YOU HAVE TO BE TO BE NOTICEABLY IMPERIALIST IN THE IMPERIALISM CINEMATIC UNIVERSE? And like you said he becomes so unbearable that he only continues the pattern of completely removing buckys sense of self ownership like at no point in winter soldier or civil war is it about what Bucky wants it’s all about uhhhh Steve actually can’t let go of the past and we’ve wasted twenty hours of character development up until then for no reason 👍🏾 like Thor is not the same person in ragnorak that he was in the first movie tony is not the same person he was at the start of the franchise to who he becomes by im3 and it’s sooooo jarring to see the diff in character development for the other big 2 and then compare that to Steve who?😭 well ok. And it’s not even convincing stagnation! Comics Steve is convincingly stagnant! Thor’s sense of grandeur and Tony’s commitment issues don’t go away even w the development so it’s not like they can’t keep the whole man out of time thing in a way that makes sense. but it just sucks!!! AND LITERALLY ITS SUCH A DISSERVICE TO BUCKY. First of all the 1920s was gayer than 2014 so its not like Bucky of all ppl needed to learn gay is ok be serious. Maybe you can buy that w Steve but see even comics Steve is clearly just saying no homo before railing twink of the month in the military. AND AGAIN. IT WAS 1940S MILITARY. GRINDR HAS SEEN LESS ANAL SEX IN EXISTENCE THAN ONE WEEK WITH THE USO😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 so yep it just comes across as oh so they only fucking now bc Steve is buff? Grow up. And the sort of narrative of mcu stucky that their shippers built in their heads makes Bucky little more than just Steve’s little sidekick or comfort toy into the end of time. He doesn’t get to exist… I’m cacw he’s still just a pawn and the only thing that Steve can control in a rapidly crumbling life. Like first of all Steve needs to have a full mental breakdown and he can’t do that if he’s using Bucky as a facking fidget spinner the bastard. And I actually really do like Bucky 🥹 but like many noticed mcu bucky is infinitely better off w Sam than Steve. 17th of all stevesam is a better ship for winter soldier than stucky you ppl just can’t let go of whiteness for 20 seconds. movie starts with stevesam basically measuring palms and dicks are you kidding me. See me I’m honest enough to admit idgaf about anyone other than Tony. If stucky fans could just admit they dgaf about anyone other than the version of Steve they made up in their head we’d all be happy

And don’t get me started on how #THEY talk about Tony. First of all Steve is no longer a poor kid from Brooklyn he’s captain hegemony so get off your fucking high horse he has no problem using Tony’s resources and money to help him access all he does in caws😒 second of all we are all picking a war criminal from the war crime saga. at least MY war criminal’s opps are all other rich white men ur opps are the made up 3rd world country that got mad you destroyed their capital so let’s not start counting sticks. Third of all if they had the brain capacity to watch anything other than stucky amvs then they’d know that Tony’s first 20 minutes on screen are about him learning what colonialism is…😭 of course it gets watered down in time for avengers and that stupid ass philanthropist line but my war criminal starts off being sad about the war crimes, yours starts off by becoming a war crime NO ONE CAN CAST THE FIRST STONE. 50th of all it was always so transparent that they only hated Tony starting from cacw bc rdj was old GGHRJBKHUDGCHGJHNN LIKE SORRY BUT. AGEISM FIRST WIN

But yeah anyway I don’t even care I’m totally so chill about this I don’t have any opinions on anything and I’m normal. I fuck

Tbh one of my biggest worries about Nuzi is like... the ages (if that makes sense) because iirc we don't have a confirmation on how old N is, nor Uzi, I think all we know is that they're both teens?? I think?? So I'm hoping we get some confirmation on that so I can breathe easy before I ship them lol

Also, in regards to the ship being forced in due to the fanbase or not... I don't think so, at least imo.

Also also... do you think you-know-who is dead? I feel like it's a fake out, but at the same time??? I don't know??? God this episode... definitely need some time to digest before I can rewatch.

the age thing is a valid point i was thinking abt that the other day😭since we know the dd’s have BEEN around Copper 9, probably since Uzi was a little kid since they got Nori?

I don’t think age is a super big concern with these characters though, seeing as they are robots and would not age in a typical way. Personally, I don’t see it as a problem, but everyone is entitled to their worries!

Plus I don’t think Glitch would tease and joke about them (which like has BEEN happening. Hello the Ep3 teaser w the plushes and Ep3 in general) if the age gap was a problem. No way they’d joke abt pedophilia or smth😭😭😭

I didn’t think Nuzi was forced (even if Ep6 was a little NOT SO SUBTLE) but Tumblr got me worried since a LOT of people were so upset about it and I am a listener of the people.

I was PRAYING Nuzi wasn’t fan service to appeal to the pre-teen audience. Isn’t Glitch’s whole thing creating shows for a teen-ya audience since most animated shows are for significantly younger or older audiences? Following the wishes of pre-teens seems kind of against that but idk

And a kind Tumblring soul informed me of some potential Nuzi tease back in Uzi’s concept art w the I♡NY pin. Not solid proof, but yk. The two have had chemistry in some form since Ep1. I’m no crazy shipper but I will remain a Nuzi fan😔👊

Personally I don’t think V is dead nor do I think there’s a way she really COULD be. She’s been cloned. Maybe she’ll be gone for a bit, but just put her programming and memories in another V body and she’s good as new. As Cyn once said, “We can no longer be thrown out,” which might not mean anything in this context but we know it’s not at all impossible to bring her back.

And do you really think Tessa would let one of her babies go for good? She loves those bots

Thank you for giving me an opportunity to rant even though none of that was coherent probs

When I first started reading tumblr, I naively thought I would find people having logical discussions to try to determine whether Sam and Cait are together (boy was I wrong!). I believe that they are, but I’m still genuinely confused about a lot of aspects of it. Have you ever seen any blogs that calmly and rationally try to refute the things a lot of us question? Most of the things I’ve seen seem to dismiss it all as a showmance, PR, imaginations of “those crazy shippers”…without any real thought. To me, there are so many more “receipts” out there that can’t be easily ignored or rationalized, and I don’t get why no one seems able to politely discuss those. What do you think? Appreciate your thoughts!

Good points. You're right that there is a mountain of receipts. They started accumulating in 2013 when we, and they, were too naive to know that it shouldn't be that way, and snowballed...until they didn't. That sliding stop between Flirty Thursday and the IFH is as big a receipt as any imo. Since then the goodness has been harder to find but it's still there. It can't be contained for long. Through it all there have always been different levels of shipping within the ship, some more extreme, some downright intrusive, some bordering on conspiracy theorists, some more casual and my people, the zen shippers. There are levels of nonshipping too -the only's, the exshippers, the haters...It sounds ridiculous when I try to describe it all, like a script from an old Vincent Price movie. To answer your question, do I know of any blogs where receipts can be discussed calmly and rationally? Hahahahaha...no. If they're out there I've never seen them. The argument against anything we offer up is traditionally along the lines of "Suck eggs you delusional old hag" and an opponent like that is hard to debate. Shipping is the weirdest damn thing I've ever done. I don't even try anymore to put it into words for my real life people.

Little Lee

Day 4 Of Lee Tommy Week; Lee Mood! Link for the prompts: https://fizzthelee.tumblr.com/post/690344255616663552/ah-why-ello-there-what-is-this-a-lee-tommy-week

Lee!Tommy, Ler!Wilbur, CC’s :] (all of these will probably be cc)

warnings: tickling that is meant to be “intense”, pinning, swearing, nervousness

SFW & PLATONIC. NSFW & SHIPPERS GO AWAY

Tommy woke up, smile on his face and blushing. For god knows what reason, he just had a fucking tickle dream, and woke up in a lee mood!

He was staying at Wilbur’s for the weekend as well. He questioned how else this day could possibly go.

When Tommy stepped out of his room, Wilbur immediately caught on to what was up just by the look of his flushed face and fidgeting. How lucky unlucky could Tommy be, Wilbur happened to of woken up in a ler mood.

“Goodmorning, Tommy. You alright?” Wilbur asked, a smile forming on his face. Tommy failed to notice.

“Mhm.. m’alright,” Tommy muttered, loud enough for Wilbur to hear him. Wilbur decided he needed to be nice to the boy in the morning, but he’d get him in the afternoon.

“Want me to make you breakfast, Toms?” Wilbur asked in a soft tone, and Tommy smiled lightly.

“Yes.. pancakes, please?” Tommy replied, his voice a bit higher in pitch which caused him to blush more from embarrassment. “Sorry, voice crack..” Nice save.

Wilbur chuckled, “you’re good, mate. And the pancakes shouldn’t be too long!”

“Thanks Wil,” Tommy’s smile grew. Wilbur was the best big brother figure anybody could ask for.

Tommy went to go sit on the couch, deciding to put MrBeast on the TV since they had the option for apps on the TV. Tommy decided to watch the video where they gave $1,000,000 worth of food to people in need. (i think everyone reading this knows what happens in that video)

Tommy was laying in a pretty strange way. One arm on top of the couch, the other dangling off the couch, and his legs spread out pretty widely. He looked like a starfish that took up the entire couch. Wilbur looked over at him and giggled.

“Tohommy, what the hell are you dohoing?” He smiled at the blonde teen, who picked up his head to look at him.

“Watching MrBeast, wanna watch?” Tommy asked as the scene of Karl being taped to the boxes came on.

“Sure, but not too much. Gotta watch your pancakes, y’know?” Wilbur said as he looked at the TV.

“Karl, can you get out of it?” “I don’t think so..” “So, Chris, does that make you wanna..” Jimmy guided Chris’s hands toward’s Karl’s torso, and Chris smiled evilly then started tickling Karl anywhere he could.

“No!” Karl yelped before letting out high pitched giggles while squirming. “Karl is super ticklish,” Jimmy spoke before it cut to the next part of the video.

Tommy was blushing like crazy, and he immediately switched from being sprawled out all over the couch to laying on his side, curled into a ball.

Wilbur giggled at him, “you alright, Toms?” He noticed his blush spread to his ears and a bit down his neck.

“Yep! Just fine!” Tommy called, hoping the subject would be changed.

“I thought that was pretty cute, don’t ya think? I mean Karl couldn’t get away, he was trapped and just had to take it!” Wilbur decided to mess with Tommy a bit before going back to finish the pancakes.

Tommy was just a mess on the couch, but he ignored his growing lee mood and decided he’d just text Ranboo and Tubbo.

“Toms, your pancakes are done!” Wilbur called as he set the plate on the table.

“Fuckin’ finally, Wil! I’m starving to death here,” Tommy joked, and Wilbur smiled.

“Aye, good food takes time to make,” Wilbur said as he poked Tommy in the ribs. He didn’t miss the flinch and the muffled squeak that came from Tommy before he started eating.

Later on in the day, the crimeboys were on the couch watching movies, Tommy in the position he was in while watching MrBeast before.. that.. happened to Karl, and Wilbur just sitting normally on the other couch.

Wilbur decided it was time.

“Hey Tommy..” Wilbur said, trying to supress his evil smirk.

The tone Wilbur used caused butterflies to erupt in Tommy’s tummy, and nervous giggles bubbled in his throat. He knew that tone all too well.

“Y-yeah Wilbur?” Play it cool. Play it cool.

“Do you really think I haven’t caught onto your mood yet?” Wilbur asked, letting the smirk grow on his face.

Tommy choked and looked away. “Wh- whahat mood?” He cursed himself for letting a giggle slip. He didn’t notice Wilbur get up and stand over him.

“You really think I don’t know you’ve been in a lee mood since this morning?” Wilbur suddenly grabbed Tommy and set him on the ground, sitting on his thighs before he could get away.

“I- whahat ahare yohou talking abohout?” Tommy exclaimed and finally the giggles erupted from him.

“Oh, Tommy, don’t think I don’t know that you want me to absolutely wreck you. To wiggle my fingers up and down your sides, to scribble my fingers all over that adorably ticklish tummy of yours, and don’t worry Toms, I’ll make sure to get your giggle button as well~” Wilbur poked Tommy’s tummy, and Tommy flinched and giggled.

“Wihihihil!” Tommy whined through his giggles, the poor boy just wanted his tickles, damnit!

“Yes, Toms~?” Wilbur wouldn’t keep this up for long, he wasn’t that much of an asshole. But he still wanted to see if he could get Tommy to outright say that he wanted the tickles.

“Juhust- juhuhust tihihihickle me alreheheady!” Tommy spoke very quickly, hoping Wilbur would comply.

“Sure thing, Tommy!” Wilbur exclaimed cheerfully before drilling his thumbs into Tommy’s hips, to catch him off guard.

Tommy squealed, “AAHAHAHahaA! WIHIHIL NOHOHO!”

“Aw, but you asked for this, Toms~! If I can remember right, a couple seconds ago you said, and I quote, ‘juhuhust tihihihickle me alreheheady!’” Wilbur mimicked Tommy’s giggling, and Tommy let out a flustered groan. Wilbur switched to wiggling his fingers between each of Tommy’s ribs.

“Dohohohon’t mohohock mehehehe!” Tommy giggled as he weakly pushed at Wilbur’s hands for a bit before settling for covering his face.

“Nuh-uh, none of that, little lee~,” Wilbur gave him a smile as he grabbed both of his hands and pinned them underneath his knees, careful not to hurt him.

Without warning, Wilbur suddenly dipped his finger in Tommy’s bellybutton and wiggled it around, while also squeezing up and down Tommy’s sides. Tommy screamed bloody fucking murder.

“WIHIHIHILBUHUHUR! NAHAHAHA NOHOHO!” Tommy squirmed as much as he could, bucking ct his hips and trying to get his hands free.

Wilbur leaned down to whisper in Tommy’s ear, “tktktktktktktk~!” He then blew a raspberry on Tommy’s neck, which got a loud, high/pitched squeal out of him.

“FUHUHUCK! WIHIHILBYHEHE!” Tommy immediately looked away from Wilbur once the nickname slipped, and Wilbur stopped, leaving Tommy confused. He turned back to look at Wilbur.

“Wh- why dihid yohou stohop?” Tommy asked after about 25 seconds of silence. Wilbur had a wide yest soft smile on his face.

“You just fuckin’ called me Wilby!” Wilbur exclaimed. Tommy wasn’t sure if his face could be anymore red than it was.

“Shuhut uhup!” Tommy tried again to get his hands free, missing the evil giggle that came from Wilbur.

“Did you just tell me to shut up?” Wilbur asked, a smirk forming from his originally fond smile.

“No! Noho I dihidn’t!” Tommy tried to defend himself, and failed miserably. Wilbur slowly lifted uo Tommy’s shirt and stopped at his ribs.

“Ready?” Was all Wilbur said before leaning down and blowing a fat raspberry right above Tommy’s bellybutton while scratching at his sides.

Tommy shrieked, “WIHIHIHIHIL! NAHAHAH NOHOHO! CUHUHUT IHIHIT OHOUTT!” He didn’t actually mean that, but he was reaching his limit now.

Wilbur switched to smaller and quicker raspberries, Tommy’s laughter still being very shrieky and high pitched.

Wilbur giggled into Tommy’s stomach, which had absolutely no reason to tickle just as much as the raspberries!

Wilbur blew one more raspberry mixed with nibbling along Tommy’s stomach, which was enough for Tommy.

“OHOKAHAHAHAY! MEHEHERCYHEHE WIHIHIL! PLEHEASE!” Wilbur stopped and got off of Tommy immediately, pulling the boy into a hug and rubbing his back soothingly.

“You alright, Toms?” Wilbur asked as the boy calmed down and let out his remaining giggles. Tommy nodded and Wilbur picked him up then sat on the couch, Tommy still in his arms.

“You took that like a champ, mate,” Wilbur said, carding a hand through the teen’s hair. Tommy looked up at Wilbur.

“Pogchamp,” Tommy spoke with a smile.

“Pogchamp,” Wilbur repeated. The two sat in silence for a bit, aside from whatever the hell was playing on the TV.

“Wil..?” Tommy suddenly spoke up, and Wilbur looked down at him.

“Yeah, Toms?” The boy looked like he was about to fall asleep.

“C-can you give gentle tickles, please..” Tommy muttered, his face flushing pink out of embarrassment. Wilbur cooed at him.

“Aww, Toms. Of course,” Wilbur smiled as he lightly traced shapes into the boys side, producing giggles sweeter than honey. Wilbur loved moments like these, where Tommy wasn’t focused on streaming or content. Where he was just a soft sweetheart that loves physical affection and bonding with his friends.

Tommy loved these moments as well, especially with Wilbur. He’s like a brother to him, and he wouldn’t want things between them to be any different. He knew he could count on Wil, for anything.

They’re brothers, your honor.

You like Tony x chris? <- that's not hate or cancellation, incredibly interesting weirdly horny dynamic if you do would love to hear your thoughts on it and how much ade deserved better

Hi, thanks for the question!

So to answer your first question, do I ship Tony and Chris- well, kinda? I don't really "ship" anything at all to be honest lol. But I guess that I enjoy reading fanfic and making memes about pairings that have interesting, weird, and toxic dynamics- like Chris and Tony. I also think that Tony x Johnny Sac and Tony x Artie have some potential lol.

There are a few things that I like about Tony and Chris: the power dynamic, Tony's mental and physical abuse, Chris' devotion regardless of the abuse and mockery, how Chris desperately wants his approval but Tony doesn't gaf, how Tony forgives him over and over- until he doesn't and kills him with his own two hands lmao....

Tony claims that he views Chris as a son but he clearly doesn't. Look at the difference between how he treats AJ and how he treats Chris. He never wanted the mob life for AJ and basically allows him to be a flop lol.. Meanwhile he spends the whole show essentially grooming Chris to take over. When AJ attempts suicide and almost drowns to death, Tony saves him. When Chris is on the verge of death after the car crash, Tony kills him. So anways, Tony views AJ as his son, an extension of himself, while he views Chris as a pawn. I'm not saying that Tony never loved Chris, maybe he did at the beginning, and you can see that in how he allows Chris to get away with things that anyone else would've immediately been killed over; but that clearly dissipates as the show goes on and Chris continues to fuck up and Tony becomes more self obsessed and paranoid.

I mean Chris gives up his fiancé for Tony (there are other reasons like the infertility obv. but y'know, not relevant ig) which is insane. Also that scene where he cries because Tony makes fun of his big nose ijbol... The more stern Tony x crybaby Chris dynamic is kinda funny to me.

And yeah, you're totally correct about the "weirdly horny" thing lmao!! There are many scenes where Tony scruffs Chris by the collar, shoves him against the wall, and shouts at him in a very intimate manner,,, Like the homoeroticism vibes were insane... So yeah basicallyyy I find Tony x Chris interesting because of how twisted and repugnant it is lol. Unfortunately there's only like 2 fanfics on ao3 which is kinda crazy imo. There's tons of WaltJesse fanfic (incredibly similar dynamic that was obv based on Tony and Chris) meanwhile there's nothing for the pseudo incest shippers🙄.

Moving on to Adriana,,, yeah she totally deserved better. I'm not one of those "Adriana was innocent" people, because obviously she wasn't, but I don't think that she was a bad person or that she deserved anything that happened to her. Her main faults were that she was incredibly naive and dumb unfortunately... She had multiple chances to leave Chris but did not take them, which was infuriating to watch but also realistic I think.

I honestly do not like Chris at all actually. He's one of my least favorite characters because his abuse of Adriana was so grotesque and painful to watch. Like I don't rlly gaf that he was depressed or an addict or abused by Tony lol... there are zero reasons to abuse a woman.

And I suppose you might be asking yourself why Tony x Chris is okay but Chris x Adriana isn't since I did say that I like toxic couples... well, the simple answer is that I don't like to see women being abused, and idgaf about what men do to each other lmao. Especially two terrible people like Tony and Chris.

Anyways I hope that answers your question! I’m not the best writer so sorry if this seemed like word vomit lol.

#the sopranos #ask #rats thoughts #anon ask #my first ask and it's about pseudo incest shipping ijbol #that checks out tbh
