I Think A Big Part Of Why I Read Way More Fanfiction Than Books Is That There’s Just A Hell Of A Lot

I think a big part of why I read way more fanfiction than books is that there’s just a hell of a lot less exposition

the first 10 pages of most books are always “these are the main characters and here’s some background on each of them and this is the setting etc etc” and it’s such a fucking hassle getting to the plot sometimes

fanfic is just like “fuck it you know all of this already let’s go”

lalody replied to your post “Do you think that the sns fans who are anti-ending, have more Problems…”

As an SNS shipper I want to say that theres a huge difference between fighting to kill someone that is in your way and actually about to do it to fighting someone because theyre trying to stop you from chasing power and not be able to kill them (see end of Part One) and fighting that person again later because you have to lose what is most precious to you in order to have enough anguish to unlock the next stage of the sharingan. IDK how you can compare them…

Why do so many people keep on regurgitating this tired notion of Sasuke “not being able to kill Naruto”, as if it’s even a valid point? Sasuke explicitly clarifies his reasons for sparing Naruto’s life while he was making his way to Orochimaru’s hideout. It wasn’t because Naruto was too special to Sasuke for him to kill. No, it was because Sasuke simply didn’t want to gain power in the same way that Itachi had done.

He remembered Itachi’s words about the importance of killing your best friend:

And Sasuke deemed that he wouldn’t allow himself to become Itachi’s puppet; he wouldn’t give Itachi the satisfaction of doing as he said:

image

Sasuke was determined to follow his own path and to gain power in his own way. Thus, when he eventually would defeat Itachi, the victory would be completely of Sasuke’s own making. That’s what he yearned for:

image

And that’s why Sasuke spared Naruto’s life. He says it himself during their first reunion, that he spared Naruto’s life “on a whim”, not due to some profound reason of Naruto being too precious.

As if that wasn’t evidence enough, those claims that constantly try to dismiss SS by saying that Sasuke always had a deep and profound reason for wanting to kill Naruto (as if that makes it any better), whereas he wanted to kill Sakura simply because she was a nuisance - are again rendered completely null and void by this one panel:

image

Sasuke clearly states here that he intended to kill Naruto simply on a whim, simply because he felt like it. There was no elaborate reason behind his murder attempt here. In this instance, Naruto was simply a nuisance, just like Sakura apparently was during the Land of Iron arc. And he was only stopped by Sai, the person least likely out of all of them to have prevented his attack.

Sasuke was more than willing to take Naruto’s life when he impaled him with the Chidori during their first fight, and again when he tried to stab him during their first reunion, and again when he tried to use Kirin on the lot of them, and again during their second fight when he was about to use the Chidori on him, but Naruto countered. So can people please stop saying that Sasuke couldn’t bring himself to kill Naruto? Because that’s simply not true; it’s just that something stopped him from doing so each time.

Lastly, Sasuke didn’t fight Naruto again in Part 2 in order to lose what was most precious to him so he could unlock a higher power. He fought Naruto again because he was in his way. Fighting Naruto wasn’t Sasuke’s goal, it was never his goal. In fact, if it were up to Sasuke, he would have just wanted Naruto to simply leave him alone, because he clearly grew to be very frustrated since Naruto just kept on interfering with his affairs:

image

And so they fought because Naruto wouldn’t stop getting in his way. It wasn’t about Sasuke trying to rid himself of his most precious person, it was about ridding himself of the last person who stood in his way.

‘…is that the freedom you wanted? The freedom to hurt Mikasa?…tell me, who’s the real slave to a piece of shit…?

but Nathan only have Max selfie IF we choose not nice to him or Victoria (like we make fun with victoria, get him suspended) and also there’s Nathan jacket in the Dark Room if we do that, so... I think Nathan doesn’t get obsessed with Max, but he want to hang out with Max like a friend (nightmare scene)

Eren/Historia for the ships ask.

Thank You!! This is one of my main otps and I love to talk about it

Ok, so at the beginning of the series, I couldn’t really ship Eren with anyone (except maybe Annie.) No one seemed to click with him just right.

Now with Christa(Historia,) I didn’t think that much of her. She was cute and sweet, but that was it. I didn’t like Ymir at all, so that wasn’t doing her any help.

but then, everything changed.

Historia dropped her facade. She was a broken, sad, girl who didn’t feel like she was good for anything. She’d just been left by her only friend, and at the time, wasn’t feeling too good about herself.

and that’s when this scene happens:

image
image

Eren is the first person outside of Ymir accept Historia for who she is. Not only that, but he also said he likes her better that way. For someone who had only really known abuse and neglect, that must’ve been huge to Historia.

The uprising arc in general is so important to both characters and they both grow together, they develop a deeper understanding of each other, and in the end, Eren acknowledges that

image

and

image

(hmm…. is that a blush???)

basically, I adore this pairing and think they deserve more love. 

Bonus:

image

idk why but I absolutely love this panel

EDIT: I have more to say on this ok??

First off, have you ever heard anything better than “King of Beasts and Queen of Humanity???” No you haven’t.

second, look at this:

image

HE’S LITERALLY ENTRUSTING HER WITH HIS LIFELONG GOAL. AND IT GETS BETTER.

SHE DOESN’T 

image

THAT IS MY GIRL KICKING BUTT AND TAKING NAMES

image

(she later told Eren she was being dramatic and honestly both of the are such drama queens)

and finally

image
Eren/Historia For The Ships Ask.

basically here is the entire quote:

“I may be mankind’s enemy, but I’m your friend, Eren. I can’t be a good girl, and I don’t want to become god. But if I see someone crying about how they’re not needed in this world, I want to let them know it’s not true.“

This is the biggest point in her character arc. Historia has finally accepted herself as she is. She in turn tells Eren that she is his friend and that he IS needed. And that is the most important point in their relationship.

They both accept each other for who they are.

How to escape after being buried alive in a coffin.

It could happen to anyone. People bury a person alive to scare them or to get rid of them. In this situation, rely only on yourself.

Do not waste oxygen. In a classic coffin there’s only enough oxygen for about an hour, maybe two. Inhale deeply, exhale very slowly. Once inhaled - do not swallow, or you will start to hyperventilate. Do not light up lighters or matches, they will waste oxygen. Using a flashlight is allowed. Screaming increases anxiety, which causes increased heartbeat and therefore - waste of oxygen. So don’t scream.

Shake up the lid with your hands. In some cheap low-quality coffins you will be able to even make a hole (with an engagement ring or a belt buckle.)

image

Cross your arms over your chest, holding onto your shoulders with your hands, and pull the shirt off upward. Tie it in a knot above your head, like so: This will prevent you from suffocating when the dirt falls on your face. 

Kick the lid with your legs. In some cheap coffins the lid is broken or damaged already after being buried, due to the weight of the ground above it. 

As soon as the lid breaks, throw and move the dirt that falls through in the direction of your feet. When it takes up a lot of space, try pressing the ground to the sides of the coffin with your legs and feet. Move around a bit. 

Whatever you do - your main goal is to sit up: dirt will fill up the empty space and move to your advantage, so no matter what - do not stop and try breathing steadily and calmly. 

Get up. Remember: the dirt in the grave is very loose, so battling your way up will be easier than it seems. It’s the other way around during a rainy weather however, since water makes dirt heavy and sticky.
