Finally started reading Eden’s Zero and can now say with the utmost certainty that Rebecca has something that Lucy should have had all along... Fucking guns. You do not understand the sense of euphoria I got from watching her pull out some guns and just shoot some motherfuckers. Like, it was almost therapeutic.
I hope that if they end up recasting someone for season 3 they get an actress that’s buffer then gina carano if only so when Din and Cara meet up again he’ll just be like
“You seem a little buffer”
and that’s it, no other acknowledgement, just thinks her muscles are larger.
I think the coolest thing about Anakin’s and Obi-Wan’s relationship is they way it really gets the eldest sibling/younger sibling bond. For instance, I’m a younger sibling and I have frequently called my sister my third parent. I see her as a parent (though not a mother) and respect her more then I do anyone else. This doesn't mean I don't see her as a sister, it just means that I have two labels for her that have blended together to create a bigger, more confusing, super label.
My older sister however has never seen me as anything other then her younger sister. She claims me as her own and really does love me, but she doesn't see me as her daughter, the most she’ll go to is calling me her child but never anything more then that. You might think what’s the difference (which is valid) and the answer to that is labeling. By calling me her kid (however reluctantly) instead of her daughter she is still maintaining that she is not my parent. Teachers call their students their kids so why shouldn't a sibling be able to do the same? If she called me her child, or her daughter then she’d be putting up a direct claim.
Anakin clearly sees Obi-Wan as a parent/older sibling/friend, while Obi-Wan just sees Anakin as a brother/best friend. Obi-Wan is maintaining that he isn't Anakin’s father but rather his older brother and friend instead. And the best thing is that Anakin doesn't always see Obi-Wan as his parent! Sometimes he’ll see him just as a brother or friend.
This is also a point in their favor. Sometime’s I’ll just feel like my sister is more my sister then my parent and sometimes it’s the other way around. The labels are constantly changing and complicated and maybe I’m just looking way too deeply into their relationship but I find it gives me comfort.
I don't know if someone’s mentioned this yet but has anyone compared how the hijab is treated in real life and how the Mandalorian’s armor is treated in Star Wars? From people trying to forcefully take it off to see what’s underneath, to people saying that they are being brainwashed for wanting to wear their collective head covering.
I don’t know, it just has some parallels that are interesting to think about.
I love Chinese bl novels because the main character will always be like, “I’m a straight male who has never had a single homosexual thought ever”
And then like not even five months later they’ll be giving out a blowjob “purely for science” like that’s a completely normal and heterosexual thing to do.
Like, I’m currently reading a transmigration novel where the mc is like, “I’m so straight,” but then his first solution to a problem that he’s having where someone is spying on him to ruin his reputation is to have a phone call in front on the spy about having an affair, go out and buy sexy lingerie, invite his “husband” to a night in a hotel, and then wait for the chaos.
My brother in Christ, what part of you felt like that was the heterosexual thing to do??
Yoooo, I still can't believe that they technically made Sasuke and Naruto soul siblings or some shit just to get the shippers to back off, and then it didn't work.
Have you noticed that the fan art for L Lawliet and Jeff the Killer looks startlingly similar at times? Because I have, and I have not known sleep for days.
I started reading Naruto fanfiction again and the words “ya know” have been violently re-added to my vocabulary.
Here’s my take on the lightsaber colors of the Batfamily. This is purely opinion so please don't take it too seriously.
Bruce: Purple, I feel like he’s constantly walking the line between light and dark and his lightsaber would reflect that.
Dick: Blue, he’s hyper focused on physicality so this would reaffirm that. He’d be a knight for sure. (that doesn't mean he isn't smart!)
Barbara: Yellow, she’ll always be oracle to me.
Jason: Red, he’d be a darksider but not a Sith, you know? Like, he’s an angry individual but also not evil.
Cass: Orange, she’s highly skilled in combat but she’s just a genuinely peaceful person.
Tim: Yellow, this color was made for him and you can not convince me otherwise. An entire faction that depends on tech just as much as the force? Sign Tim up.
Steph: Pink, I have no idea why it just seems like something she would do. Just get the rarest and most misunderstood lightsaber color like it’s no big deal.
Duke: Green, he has powers already so I feel like that would transfer over to him being more focused on the force and stuff.
Damian: White, he’s constantly being pulled between the light side (his father) and the dark side (his mother). His lightsaber should reflect less of a struggle and more of neutrality.
Question, could Injustice Superman just be considered a shittier version of Light Yagami?
To be completely honest one of the things I was most devastated about with Damian Wayne’s whole new consume and identity is the lack of stylish boots. Like, 12 year old me saw those boots and thought “yeah those are lit” and you know what? 12 year old me was right, those boots were, in fact, “lit”
But now I’m looking at his new consume and all I can think is that would be such an easier transition if they left the boots. They were fashionable as fuck and it’s a true travesty they’re gone.
