a lot of people are saying edward but i really hope it isn’t. i love edizzy of course but can we allow this man to have his own life outside of ed for one second. it’s what he deserves.
personally i like the idea of it being his mother.
#yknow that thing fandoms always bitch about#where ppl will learn one thing about a character#and suddenly that’s their whole personality#to me that’s sometimes how i feel watching izzy get characterized#he’s more than just ed#and when we make his whole world about just ed#not only does it flatten his character#but it also makes his character all the more tragic#it’s both super sad and unrealistic to believe he has only cared about one man who didn’t care the same amount about him#and that’s actually his whole life story nothing else#ofmd#txt#our flag means death#izzy hands

My hot take is that I think Kai did raise nya but he was an objectively bad and lacking parental figure (because he was like 7) who wasn’t able to properly fulfill Nya emotional needs and as a result (as well as the general stress of the situation) nya is as heavily traumatized as Kai.
#ninjago#ninjago kai#ninjago nya#I don’t get why some people don’t understand that just because Kai raised nya doesn’t mean she’s not traumatized#she very obviously is#Kai was a child he is going to be a bad parent that’s just a given#if anything I’ll argue that Nya is even more emotionally traumatized then Kai who is more physically traumatized#there’s a reason why Kai recovers faster then Nya#recover is in large quotations#when I say the situation is tragic and complex I mean it’s tragic and complex#no answer anyone comes up with is going to create a childhood where they’re happy#it objectively will not happen#and I think ppl who try to force that narrative are taking away from both Kai AND Nya’s character#Nya is just as affected as Kai and pretending she was happy and oblivious is stupid

I keep thinking about Durge, who, even after defying Bhaal, is never truly free from their father's legacy.
Because yes, the Urge is gone, the cursed blood of Bhaal doesn't call to them anymore. But body remembers, even if mind doesn't. Body knows what it did, it knows what it was created for. It's instinctual, bone-deep reflexes of a person raised to be the perfect murderer. It's little twitches and how easily opponents fall: foes and former allies alike.
It's small glimpses of the past, because mind doesn't remember, but the body DOES. It's the eerie familiarity of darkest corners of Baldur's Gate, it's people recognizing Durge on the streets, people they don't remember but who remember THEM.
It's the feeling of being haunted by your own self.
It's the body of Ketheric, the bloody mess left of Orin, Gortash's lifeless frame. It's the knowledge you're the last one, what this tragic story of conquer started with you and ends with you.
It's the feeling of emptiness where bubbling joy once was, the blood on the blade what brings no feelings. It's being charming, or kind, or honest, or gentle, or honorable, but at the end of the day still being the best in the art of murder - and who are they if not Bhaal's unholy blade?
Godless and fatherless, struggling to reimagine themselves.
Especially when memories come; they never return fully, never in the whole picture. But glimpses, the shards of existence what was once theirs cut deeper than any ritual blade would.
I keep thinking about Durge weighted down by the grief of the world, guilt of the world.
Alone: without a god, a father, a sister, a partner (Gortash, bc these two were absolutely insane for each other).
Alone and with whole life ahead; lost and confused and with hands bloodied.
Hero, people call them. They don't feel like a hero.
#baldur's gate 3#baldur's gate spoilers#dark urge#bg3 durge#the 'it started with us in ends with us' narrative is killing me#durge who is a tragic hero who at the end of the day is not the person they started with#and not the amnesiac from the nautilus#but the mix of both#martyr and murderer#savior and monster#also gortash my beloved. I keep having headcanon where Durge and him sworn loyalty to each other before orin lobotomised durge#swore like on infernal pact the ritual whay doesn't allow them betray each other#what links their lives together so they die as one#ultimate trust fall and safety feature#'you can't kill me because it would be killing yourself'#durge convinces Bhaal it's ok bc it only means Gortash and Durge will be the last men standing when the time comes#and when durge kills Gortash they will ki themselves too#making the ultimate last tribute to bhaal#but secretly durge is a survivor#they want to live more than they want to please father#so chaining them and gortash by the pact is a safety measure to make sure they don't kill gortash#bc killing gortash would be killing yourself and the self wants to survive#despite everything#so then in act 3 when durge dies and is reborn Gortash feels it#and when Karlach raises an axe to end up Gortash Durge cries in pain#because you can either kill one or neither#don't mind me I'm just plotting to keep rat coded evil boyfriend of my durge alive#durge has 2 hands he can have TWO rat-coded boyfriends#Astarion upon seeing the pact tattoo over the durge's heart: you too hug#and then Raphael is like 'THIS tattoo is the oath of loyalty actually. the closest thing devils have to a marriage pact'

Patalliro! is fascinating to me because of stuff like this. It's unapologetically gay - even within its anime which aired during primetime hours in 1982 - in a way that many later BL manga would never be, like the ones from the early 2000s which would never dare to call their characters actual homosexuals. Patalliro has actually aged quite well in this regard, there's something comforting about how campy it is.
#i still dont really understand how they got away with this kind of thing honestly#female VAs i get that - but first m/m kiss in an anime in episode THREE?????#theres also the maraich/thomas episode where they are *Both* voiced by women....advanced yuri#patalliro#i love how bancorans gender expression is pretty much explicitly to attract only bishounen#you blushed - so you must not be a girl#etc#i also love how joyful it all is#theres never anything sad or tragic about being gay - only that bancoran is forced to kill the bishounen spies/assassins/etc#when bancoran finds out that gay sex feels good after demian; in the manga he is elated. its basically a positive thing#he awakens to his true power...lol#also notable is that while bishounen youth is glorified maraich is 18#this means it portrays being gay as an adult as normal; not a phase relegated to nostalgic adolescent periods of time#according to the NYT japan's psychiatric body called homosexuality a mental illness until 1995#im NOT going to say patalliro changed that or anything lmao but its just significant to me that banmara get to live their lives happily#even raise children together in the manga....???#especially contrasting that with kaze to ki no uta and other manga of the time (no shade intended)#yaoi#<- for tagging purposes#obviously it also got away with a lot by being a gag manga. but still!#months later edit: want to say im not intending to moralize BL manga from the 2000s either. like gen. no hate on them.#as a gay person i just appreciate when characters who act gay are considered gay textually#and its kind of disheartening how gay-as-identity was treated as something incredulous in those manga a lot of the time#even the mere suggestion of attraction to men as a whole and not just the other male lead...yknow#this post is meant to praise patalliro for being unique in its approach to gay content compared to other titles#ive enjoyed plenty of 2000s yaoi titles despite their shortcomings lol

Every once in a while, I think about how MC and Rime’s dynamic is the funniest and saddest thing ever.
Because…MC stole his life. Then his weapon. Then his job. Then his boyfriend. And then, depending how you play it, MC also steals his heart.
#it’s hilarious#I just feel so BAD for rime the entire time#can you imagine being him? being in his place?#well I mean I guess you can because you do exactly that in Felix’s route ahem#but the one you love robbing you of a peaceful and dignified death — only to fall in love with the stranger they summoned by accident#and then that stranger ends up in possession of your power and your weapon and your role in the team#all while YOU’RE STILL ALIVE — I mean YEAH you might have come back WRONG but damn#you are RIGHT THERE#if anyone cared…they probably don’t — they seem perfectly happy with your cheap knockoff#yeah that would make anyone a little bit spiteful#and then the punchline is that you never end up getting revenge for any of that because you too become enamoured with said cheap knockoff#that’s so tragic — and so funny#I love the path where we become friends because that’s essentially how it goes#stealing his heart either romantically or platonically — both work#I miss fictif’s last legacy#I kind of fell out of the app before dorian so I don't know if they ever finished that story#fictif#last legacy#rime solano varela#rime varela#felix escellun#felix iskandar escellun

Courtney's video of Amanda and Angela "going live" really unlocked in my brain that Amanda and Angela are most likely consistently doing bits whenever they're around each other, and are just having too much of a blast + egging each other on to bother recording any of it, much less posting it.
Which, excellent for them, I fully approve, but deeply tragic for me, a person who would gladly watch hours of them just dicking around.
#its good that they arent turning their good fun times into Content. they shouldnt. but tragically i would also love to see it 🥲#i think probably a similar thing for Amanda and Shayne and Angela and Chanse and etc where theyre just Having A Blast#but something about that venn diagram of how angela posts and how amanda posts means. I KNOW there are bits. god id love to see them#smosh#amanda lehan canto#angela giarratana#amangela#just like. 3-5 more of like those waiter bits they post occasionally. ya feel me.

but if I said romance is and always has been the weakest part of superhero comics/stories...
#LISTEN just because I consume fan content about superhero romance doesnt mean I really. CARE. about seeing it in canon#this goes for batcat this goes for clois this goes for a lot of canon relationships I LIKE... I just get bored when they take up TOO much of#the story... you get it...#thats why I like when brutalia is kind of like... the tragic RESULT of the story rather than the incitement of the story or even worse#a B plot that keeps continually interrupting the story in order to be addressed... which is.. where I think clois and batcat go a lot of#times.. cough... (( again. I like these ships I PROMISE ))

Just got this art commission from the amazing @haflacky, for my fic With His Bloodstained Hands.
In it, Izzy and Ed have a more intimate relationship pre-canon, and Izzy's role as someone who commits violence in Ed's name is much more explicit. He often gifts Ed with the severed body parts of men who insult or threaten him, even as he eschews traditional affection. So this time, when kraken!Ed wakes Izzy in the middle of the night, he doesn't cut off any of Izzy's appendages... he asks Izzy to do it for him. And Izzy does.
He'll do anything to reignite the fire within Edward... even if it means using himself as kindling.
#blackhands#edizzy#izzy hands#edward teach#ofmd art#ofmd#our flag means death#Izzy picks his left ring finger for all kinds of reasons#the pinky is actually really useful for grip strength#the index finger for pointing#and the middle finger for flipping people off#it just so happens that the 'useless' ring finger is also where he'd wear a wedding ring#and that's the finger he gives Ed#the canon scene is brilliant#but IMO there's a particular tragic beauty of Izzy having agency over this moment#of him truly being desperate enough to get back any scraps of the captain he loves that he'd choose to make this sacrifice#the scene is in ch10 of the fic but it's not that huge a spoiler given what happens in canon

i was perplexed to realize the dog thing in fma is all within one chapter like oh that was it?
#i mean i could understand it being seen as this masively tragic thing if the mangaka was a master of pacing. but it isnt#i think fma 03 did drag it across a few episodes tho? so maybe thats where it got the fame from

It's okay to want to pass or to bind or tuck or things like that, and it's insensitive to imply that trans people doing so is proof they are trying to "conform to cissexism". It is okay to want to transition "traditionally". It is okay to not want that, too. What isn't okay (and will never be okay) is to degrade other people for the choices they make or for the choices they have to make.
#trans#transgender#lgbt#lgbtq#ftm#mtf#nonbinary#as always: saw something that really missed the mark somewhere else#i've seen BOTH sides degrade peoples' choices and it's bad! no matter why you're doing it!#just stop! *the sound of my scream blasts everything away from me within a twenty mile radius like i'm todd howard*#do you honestly and truly know if somebody or some rando is trying to be cissexist by transitioning?#as somebody who does want to 'conventionally' transition in many ways - you don't know. you can't know#what's more important - degrading people or protecting them?#i'll tell you when you degrade people for no reason you will be alone. you don't want to be alone especially if you're a minority#a trans person who isolates themself because they degrade other trans people - for example - will be alone when they are targetted#that's what i mean. i've seen it a lot more than i care to. it's upsetting and tragic and i hate it. i want it to stop#transition (or lack thereof) is all about you. nobody else. it shouldn't BE solely for somebody else#absolutely there are cases where part of transition is for somebody else and that's fine. but if that doesn't apply that's cool#my transition is focused on me. because i do it for myself and my comfort and my safety and prosperity. because i want to Live and not live#big L live is different than little l live

diavolo calling ik his daughter feels so much crueler when you realise the ghost of her actual dad is literally there the whole time jhsshdhjsj
im really curious abt ik's story before becoming a demon though
i was thinking about that actually!!! okay so in this au, since the rules about demons and the devildom are different, i also get to make up new lore for how demons are born
so there are natural-born demons and human-born demons, and there's not too much difference apart from the way they're created; natural-born demons just sorta spawn in the devildom, while human-born demons are created from the remains of dead humans by certain scout demons
normally, human-born demons are created by violent/angry/spiteful/vengeful/etc. deaths, and the nature + abilities of the demon depend on the circumstances of their death. ik's death was an accident while playing like regular kids do - which is why she's mostly benign, and has weird cartoonish powers
these sort of deaths are usually left to reapers, but in this case the scout demon took pity and decided to give her a 'second life' of sorts by bringing her back as a demon - though, as is the case with all human-born demons, she doesn't remember her old life at all, and is only vaguely aware of her origin
i'd place her as originating from a few centuries in the past, plus she's used to all archaic magic tech in the devildom, so she is very wowed by human technological advancement. levi shows her super mario and she is totally enthralled
#answering asks#anon asks#ik (though having tragic notes) is actually a more whimsical happy-go-lucky character here#but zhao is really Going Through It#he'd have figured out (or at least suspected) the being-turned-into-demon thing#or potentially is just so deep in grief that he'll resort to any means necessary#but he ended up dying and being stuck as a ghost because he tried employing the same sorts of occult arts that sonno was in the present#this also means sonno could potentially come back as a ghost and either ruin everything#or be stuck in sitcom purgatory where he can't do literally anything and everyone is dunking on him all the time#jtta aus#the office demon au
