Ready For Battle

Forever sad for the people in North America who didn't get the poetic titles for The Circle of Magic Quartet The Magic in the Weaving The Power in the Storm The Fire in the Forging The Healing in the Vine I remember moving to Canada, going to the library and shrieking internally when it was just "Sandry's Book" etc.

Man. I dunno. I just love the idea of characters losing control over their special abilities when they get flustered.

Todoroki accidentally lights himself on fire because Midoriya said he was cute today??? Precious

Midoriya accidentally shattering his cellphone in his hands because Todoroki smiled at him? I C O N I C

Sasuke’s sharingan popping up when he goes to protect Naruto? Fuck yes.

Sakura stumbling backward and accidentally decimating trees bc Ino winked at her? Gimme.

Kaminari short circuiting and blowing the breaker in the dorm building because Bakugou said he ‘was actually kinda cute’ ? Fucking love it.

Iida accelerating straight into a wall because Sero winked at him? God tier.

Just give me these children being awkward and flustered. Give me these children being CHILDREN WITH CRUSHES. because you know that at 12. No one is smooth. No one can escape the awkward tween years. No one.

Me: Not that I’m a snob but I dont like e readers I like the feel of the paper the smell of a book

Also me: Spends hours glued the phone eyes squinting and red reading fanfiction

Someone write this please

Civil War au where everything is the same except Bucky won’t stop flirting with Tony in the middle of fights

venom booping eddie’s nose when they first talk face to face reblog if u agree

Elsa is really bad at charades 😂 this is when Elsa and Honeymaren are officially dating 🥺 and Elsa takes her to Arendelle to play charades every weekend 🥺

Just a quick reminder for people new and old to fandoms.

You do not owe someone an explaination for shipping something

You do not need to defend your ship

You do not need to prove your ship is ‘healthy’ in order to ship it

You do not need to ship healthy ships

You do not need to ship hetero, gay, or queer ships that satisfy some quota of diversity for the fandom

You do not have to ship at all

And on the flip side:

Do not try to harm others

Do not tell others they need to harm or kill themselves

Do not cross post your hate

Do not forget to tag NSFW items as people browse while on a work network

Do not post your long fics without putting it under a cut. Some people use mobile and this is really hard for them to scroll, or use text to speech

In the end, ship what you want, don’t ship what you don’t want to ship, and be courteous to one another. And as a last piece of advice, don’t focus on your notp. Post your ships instead and build up what you love, not what you hate.

Okay I’m still not over Dead Apple

Sorry if it has already been said before, but I was thinking A LOT about one parallel.

It is situated at the beginning and in the end of the movie.

Two scenes paralleling each other perfectly. But at the beginning we can 100% agree that Dazai came here to commemorate his friend, and in the end of the movie… most of us couldn’t agree with Atsushi’s words because our opinions on Dazai can vary. Because everyone of us sees him differently, and so do other Bungou Stray Dogs characters. Mostly, they hate him for what he’s done. For his actions that broke people’s souls. For everything that still itches inside Dazai’s heart.

Dazai by himself thinks that he’s evil. And yes, he’s made lots of things that make him (and us) think so.

But Atsushi doesn’t have the same opinion.

Even knowing that Dazai has done lots and lots of bad things in his life, Atsushi still thinks of him as a good person.

And I think that this parallel shows us real Dazai. Because even if he himself doesn’t think so, he changes. Slowly, painfully, overstepping his past mistakes and accepting himself, but he changes. He’s still manipulative and he’s still doing everything to get what he needs even if it means he should injure somebody.

But Atsushi still sees a good person in him despite everything Dazai did and does. Atsushi, one of the few people, believes in him and in his kindness. Atsushi CAN see through his masks and CAN understand Dazai, so both of his phrases – at the beginning and in the end – are true. He’s confused because it’s obvious that Dazai came to the grave with a certain purpose and it’s obvious that Dazai has opportunity to be good.

And Dazai is shocked. He has not so many people who have seen through him so deeply and who have believed in him so sincerely.

Dazai is not an angel. He’s kind of devilish sometimes, sadistic, pain in his soul makes him want to end all of it. He hates pain. He hates the process of living. He hates himself. He can’t end it.

But when there are people like Atsushi around him, who believe in him despite of everything, he still can manage. Dazai still has a chance to become a better person, even if it’s not what he’s used to. And Atsushi several times showed that he’s here to save him.

Just like Dazai ones saved Atsushi.
