https://www.tumblr.com/rist-ix/749015401700229120 not you reblogging this when you ship bloom with the man who murdered her family 😭
Bloom's into ppl who slay! Hope this helps :3
#alright snark and ship wars aside i get where you’re coming from tho#if you're genuinely interested in my thought process here i would love to elaborate#which is exactly what I’ll do!#first of all! the post you linked is about headcanons#which my brain kinda wants to put into a whole different category than ships — fandom ships in particular! — but i can leave that aside#because there IS an argument to be made that relationships are an extension of characterization and personality traits#if you wanna go that route i would wanna explain that Bloom's and/or Valtor's interest in the other is in fact based on canon#(even though I don’t really think ships need to be established in the source material. make shit up that’s what fandom is for#1) the Andros episode speaks for itself. Valtor specifically tells the Trix to back off because HE wants to be the one to fight bloom#2) the episode before that he asks questions about her (and only her; even though he has more powerful enemies to worry about)#demonstrating curiosity about and interest in her#3) that same episode (or the one before; can’t remember) is their infamous first meeting#where time LITERALLY slows down as the pass each other on the stairs#they get IMPACT FRAMES#the whole color palette changes!!!#idk about u but I eat that shit up. love the drama of it all no one does it like them#I’m gonna skip all the instances where Valtor is spying on Bloom through his little scrying spell because oh god who has the time#let’s go straight to Bloom#if I had a week I would not be able to collect all the moments where she growls his name in pure fury and single-minded determination#she gets a little bit obsessed with him over the course of the season and I personally think that’s very sexy of her#Bloom is known for her tunnel vision when it comes to her past and origins and Valtor's existence fits PERFECTLY into that#it ties in neatly with her overarching story of the past 2 seasons#literally PERFECT foils#which always makes for the juiciest stories#4) she singles him out for a duel in the museum episode#5) she can literally feel his presence#6) the mere mention of his name sends her into her weird faux enchantix#of course there’s no romance in canon but there’s TENSION AND CHEMISTRY which is all u really need for a ship#all their animosity and bad blood is what makes it so INTERESTING to wonder how they COULD work. it’s the spice that makes for good fanfic!

thinking about how the only reason sunny started reconnecting with the world and realising he deserves love is because kel never gave up on him. even though sunny isolated himself from everyone kel still called him and tried to reach out. and it’s so pivotal it’s literally the key choice that determines whether or not you get the good ending. the path to healing and contentment depends on whether or not you take the hand kel offers you. and sunny learns to forgive himself because he keeps making that choice. he opens the door for kel, and therefore chooses reconciliation and personal growth. it’s why he’s able to save basil in the end. because kel is strong and resilient and kind. because kel is lonely and has grieved in silence for years but still looks for sunny everywhere he goes. because they’re both invisible. because everything that sunny needs, kel has.
kel saved sunny’s life

CORIOLANUS AND LUCY GRAY ARE THE REVERSED BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
I know this sounds crazy but hear me out.
In the original tale, the Beast keeps his roses hidden, and wants no one to touch them. The tale starts with the Beauty asking her father for the purest rose he can find as a gift from his travels. She could have asked for anything, trasures, money, jewelry, but she only asks for a single rose.
In this story, roses simbolize the human side of the Beast, that wants to remain isolated and never be close to someone again after being cursed. The Beast shows only the monster, hides the human. Similarly, the Beauty asked for something kind and sweet as a gift, for the simplest act of love and humanness.
Now, let's get back to the Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.
The first thing Coriolanus does when he meets Lucy Gray is gifting her a rose, and the first thing she does is EATING it.
Coriolanus doesn't hide his human side for selfish motivations (gain her trust), using the rose to cover his monstrous and wicked one. Lucy Gray didn't ask for a rose, she didn't want or expext it, and when it's offered to her she eats it, consuming it like an animal would. He acts like a human and she acts like a monster, but the truth is the opposite.
They both act like this because they're performers. All the story is just a long performance that breaks in this two points. Coriolanus shows the human because he's the Beast. Lucy shows the monster because she's the Beauty.

For a long time I had this idea that even though Hathellang lost his hand to the Forsaken Reaver his ultimate victory would be that he and Leonys would not be going to Umbar or entertaining any nonsense with regards to the weird beef he builds up with the PC, instead going home to get on with their lives. But that was before I knew there were other hands at stake

Honestly what with him being stuck in one unaging, unchanging state with his only remaining connection to his former self being this vague notion that he must fight and protect and sacrifice with no regard for his own well-being - there really is something of The Ghost Knight in Mytho.

been thinking so hard abt the mask and the moon. this has Most Definitely been said before by a bunch of ppl but please indulge my ramblings for a bit anyways cuz i cannot get over this. it just makes so much sense to me to look at them as (at least partially?) a metaphor for skull kids ugly feelings that stem from his abandonment issues. the fact that one of majoras bossfight phases is called majoras Wrath....... the way the mask is said to be the cause of skull kids actions, and then is revealed to have been outright controlling him. the way that thing states that it shall consume everything and then it flies off to the moon (yet another, but more uh . non-theoretical, direct ‘manifestation’ of the kids anger) and u go inside, supposedly to the core of it and are met with the peaceful field and the tree and the five children. four of which run around wearing masks of the bosses of the dungeons u had to go thru in order to get to the giants. four of which play hide and seek with u, and Theyre the ones who hide. and one child, sitting all by himself, wearing majoras mask. one who u confront after ‘everyone has gone away’ and who suggests that u play good guys against bad guys w/ him and states that ‘when youre bad, you just run’. also this visual parallel

Anyone else thinking about the biblical references contained within Jake English and how he's narratively a loaded Chekhov's gun.

holy shit just had a big brain revelation
drawing another piece for cringetober and its the gijinka one and what do you know. ofc im drawing the mxes entity as william because. and my plan initially was to make his skin just normal but as i was coloring it, i made him be a similar (blue purply) color to the entity overall, skin included, but i was curious how he would look like with normal human skin too so, im coloring his face and neck and thinking, hey how could i include his springlock scars, since the pale skin is asking for some of the markings
and the fucking. the white lines all over the entity's body are the springlock scars
thats it thats my new Thought.
my new silly headcanon based on absolutely nothing besides a what if

@ Kunikidazai shippers y'all should really take in consideration Kunikidazai The Good Place AU because it'd be perfect fit for them!!
#bsd tgp au#Really fascinated by the concept of Chidi! Kunikida... Kunikida is far more confident and decisive than Chidi–#but there's something about being true to their ideals that makes Chidi's role so perfectly fitting for him#Kunikida would be all like “I CAN'T report Dazai (as much as I'd want to) I MUST be coherent with my kantian ideal of keeping my word”#(Btw Dazai would totally take advantage of this. He'd totally scheme to make it so that the only person to know he doesn't belong there–#is also the one that is the only one perfectly incapable of reporting him)#Also I like how Kunikida's far too idealized profile of soulmate we know he has in canon–#translates in him not having a soulmate in heaven... Except he does but it was not how he expected it (if you know you know)#But it does relate to Chidi's grief for not having a soulmate in episode 5 of season 1 very well#Meanwhile Eleanor's evolution towards becoming a better person can be fairly paralleled by Dazai#It would work pretty well with sskk too though!!#Differently from Kunikida Atsushi would perfectly match Chidi's perpetual anxiety and nervousness ahah#And intellectual university professor Atsushi is so cool...#And I just want. Atsushi and Akutagawa helping each other become a better person. Yeah that. That would be good#Akutagawa very reluctantly having to ask Atsushi for help despite he'd rather die again than do so I'm screaming. Atsushi being there like.#dude I don't understand do you want my help or not????#Akutagawa is perfect foil for Eleanor because he's literally all about hating people better than him#Great now I want to read this so bad 😭😭😭#Please watch The Good Place if you haven't it's SO good#bsd#doppo kunikida#osamu dazai#kunikidazai#atsushi nakajima#ryūnosuke akutagawa#sskk#bsd au#mine#My problematic trait is making tags three times longer than the post#q.
