So in movies or books, why is the chosen one always that person who has no idea what’s going on and is confused for the whole story?
And why is there ALWAYS that one person who’s like "Yeah, you’re a loser, I would have been a better chosen one than you, at least I know what I’m doing". And let’s be real, somehow, that person almost always ends up as the love interest.
Like why? Give me a ‘chosen one’ with a brain. Give me side characters who actually help the mc understand what’s their job instead of being jealous dicks-
Me: *randomly starts singing at like 2 am*
Me (a few hours later): Why the heck am I so fucking tired
So you know how we usually imagine Life as like, this happy going person with a white outfit and all colorful while Death would be this dark, calm, slightly depressed person with a black outfit?
Well what if it was the opposite?
Like, Life would be the dark and calm one. Seeing their creations dying over time made them lose interest and motivation in their job and they’re pretty much bored all the time because of it.
Death, on the other and, would be the one who’s always happy and full of energy. I think they would be like that because of how depressing their job is. I feel like they’d want to make it better somehow, for them, and for the souls they have to guide to the afterlife.
I think that could be an interesting way to represent the concept of Life and Death.
Be weird, switch them up and see what happens!
Can we all just end the "What’s Yamato’s gender/pronouns in One Piece?" debate already?
Yes, Yamato is afab, but he still considers himself a man. I don’t care what the vivre card says, Yamato canonically uses masc pronouns in both the manga and the anime. Kaido calls him his son. Hell, Yamato even went to the MEN’s bathroom!
So please let’s just end it there. In canon, Yamato used masc pronouns and considers himself a male, so let’s just do that. It’s not that hard. I never understood why this debate was even a thing to begin with tbh
I’m at that point in life where I just don’t care and I shamelessly traumatize my friends by telling them about the fics I read about, destroying their image of me instantly.
The horror on their face is gold tho, so it’s all worth it.
If Klaus is immortal, then how did he die in the first apocalypse?
one day i’m gonna end up writing a miraculous rewrite because this stupid ass show has way too much potential to let it go to waste more than it already did
Batman’s secret identity gets revealed to the public and now when asked about it bruce fully plays into it in a way that makes it sound like an obvious joke.
"oh yes of course i’m the batman, i keep all of my secret bat-gadgets in a secret cave under wayne manor and i definitly love dressing up as a bat during my free time, it’s very freeing haha"
Then batman starts publically beefing with bruce wayne for impersonating him.
"bruce wayne is an idiot and has always been. this is why I never go save him when he always gets himself kidnapped like the incompetent bastard he is"
Somehow this strategy succeed in making everyone stop believing batman is bruce wayne. Except now people think they act like salty exes
Being a multishipper while trying to write your own story is terribly hard because you start shipping every characters with each other even if it doesn’t make sense for the story so you start thinking about fanfictions about a story you didn’t even finish yet
I have to say, I don’t think I ever came across a fandom that depicts nudity as beautifully and with as much humility as I’ve seen the arcane fandom do it.
And I don’t mean nudity as in nsfw fanarts and other sexualised fanarts like that. I mean nudity as in fanarts of characters being naked in such a natural way. Kinda reminds me of nude statues or a muse or something.
I just think it’s beautiful to see it being depicted that way and not always seeing nudity being sexualised, because nudity doesn’t alway = sex. It’s a nice change of pace tbh
Okay so most of us are expecting (more like hoping but wtv) to have buddie becoming canon this season. Season 8 is expected to be around 18 episodes or so, episode 4 comes out tonight (I have yet to watch it), but if it's really to become canon in s8, I do not want it to happen before the second half of the season and that's being generous. Don't get me wrong, I want them to get together as much as anyone, but if I see it happen in 3 episodes imma be real disappointed. As long as it happen, the longer it takes, the better tbh.
Now, why is that? Well, there's still a lot of things that needs to happen first;
Eddie needs to come out as queer (gay, bi, doesn't matter, as long as he comes out as queer and realizes he likes men)
Buck and Tommy need to break up (I refuse to have buddie start on a cheating scandal. God knows we've had more than enough of that storyline not just in media in general but in 911 as well. Not to mention Eddie literally just got out of one)
Both Buck and Eddie need to realize they have feelings for each other
And finally, they get together
Some of these can happen at the same time, like Eddie could realize he likes men by having the realization he likes Buck. Hell, that could happen before Buck and Tommy break up, giving us some good old jealous Eddie with "one-sided" pining and "unrequited" love (for now). Point is, as long as it doesn't start on a cheating arc, we're good.
If all this happen in 3 episodes, I'm genuinely going to be mad. It's just going to feel rushed and I'm pretty sure most of us would hate that. It needs to be a slow burn. The slowest slow burn ever seen. It could be beautiful.
Which is why I think they need to become canon at least during the second half of the season minimum. The latter the better.
That's not to say they can't have feelings for each other before that though. By them becoming canon I mean them actually starting a relationship. They can pine, they can flirt, they can have their own angsty moment thinking it's unrequited. But actually legit dating?? No. That needs time. It's just going to be better in the end.
If you were to ask me what my best case scenario would be, it'd pretty much go something like Eddie realizes he likes Buck (and consequently men, or vice-versa) while Buck is still dating Tommy, causing him to have to deal with his feelings while still trying to be supportive. Then Buck and Tommy break up for an unrelated reason (I'd like to mention that while I know a lot of people dislike Tommy, this is Buck's first queer relationship and I want it to be a good experience over all for him so an amicable break up sounds better to me but that's just my personal opinion on the matter) leaving Eddie kinda relieved but also trying to be good supportive friend. Then it's Buck's turn to realize he has feelings for Eddie. Cue some moments of pining and flirting, that can go on for more than one episode, ideally a few. While this happen, they can both talk about it with other people, like Buck with Maddie for exemple. Then something happen and they realize their feelings are mutual. Now, would they get together then or would they try to take things slow depends on how it plays out.
That's just how I like to imagine it happening. I'd love for it to last a while before they actually start dating, or at least before they make they relationship official enough to tell the others about it. But I might be biased because I've always been a sucker for a well made slow burn.
Anyways, those are just my thoughts on the matter, we'll see how it actually goes (if they become canon at all).
Still manifesting buddie becoming canon, if not dating then let at least one of them canonically have feelings so we can start going somewhere eventually
