Elite Overthinker

She/ They Forever Jay from descendants and Bakugou lover I’m never consistent, I just be talking

[ashwoods-21]

To the people who said “MHA gets good after like the 4th and/or 5th season! Keep watching it!” This is my sincere apology for not believing you. But you also can’t blame me, my ADHD brain and the fact I wait two years for hype to go down on anything, both got to me and prevented me from watching.

I have spent 6 years at this point trying to complete MHA to no avail until today. Keep in mind, I was already getting spoilers and watching people react to some scenes so I felt like I knew enough on the show and movies. To the point I made Bakugou my favorite character. I last stopped the show in the middle of season 4 like two years ago and finally felt like I could finish it. And I made a big mistake.

I should’ve been finished this, it was amazing. I got more obsessed with Bakugou. Somehow Deku became tolerable to me in the 3rd movie and stayed that way (Still don’t know how that happened, I was so tired of seeing him and he was the main character). Bakugou’s still my favorite. I was crying actual tears. I sided with everyone at this point (except Endeavor and AFO, burn in hell both of you). Did I mention that Bakugou is and forever will be my favorite and that I need every possible thing of merch of him or I will go insane? No? Well now I did, deal with it.

Also who tf was going to remind me that Kirishima has never called Bakugou “Bakubro” (aside from once in the manga I heard), that he also doesn’t have two moms, Tsukauchi’s quirk isn’t a lie detector, and Bakugou’s parents are just stated as designers and not fashion designers?? Rude, the lot of you

Anyway, ships, anyone tell me yours, I’m a multi shipper to an extent (I’ve tried seeing BakuDeku / Dekubaku and I’m sorry but I can’t, I swear I’ve tried). So I will mostly agree with your ships

How it feels to read fanfics from fandoms that you’re not apart of

[greenbergsays]

"Oh, I don't have strong opinions about that," I think, very naively.

and then someone gets it wrong. it turns out I do have strong opinions about that.

[ashwoods-21]

You know when you want to get into a fandom and know all the lore and stuff just for one single character but it’s so much of it that you know good and damn well you won’t have the attention span for?

Well that’s me with Jason Todd (Red Hood) and I absolutely love him and have been finding out information about him little by little but nothing can make me sit and read all of the Batman/dc comics, watch the shows and movies or play any game.

But Jason Todd has taken over my life on and off to the point it’s 6 AM and I almost just watched some of Batman under the hood but (thankfully) got distracted by tumblr and fanart and fics.

Anyway, if someone wants to tell me how I can just know everything about Jason and possibly the batfam too if necessary, then please let me know. If there’s no other way then to go full on into Batman…I’ll cry but understand (I probably still won’t do it at that point).

Don’t you just hate when your comfort/ favorite characters have very little merch unless it’s online and expensive?

I found Bakugo figures in a whole different state because of this and I can’t find almost anything Marvel to get anything Bucky related. I did find a book I saw on TikTok but that’s besides the point (The Winter Soldier: Cold Front by Mackenzi Lee).

I want more stuff that isn’t online and expensive before and after shipping. Just give me a Bakugo Q Posket!!

I need more merch stores dedicated to certain shows and movies that aren’t in Japan because I will gladly make that trip again and go with less clothes just to get and bring back what I want.

[ashwoods-21]

He heard me hehehe

[ashwoods-21]

Went on a trip to see a friend and said “I don’t need much room in my suitcase, I won’t be buying much of anything to bring back.” And uh….

And this isn’t even all of it…Next time I’ll shut up and bring less clothes. Sadly this was all of Bakugou

The curse of going back to a hyper fixation that you completely forgot about bc it’s been years (and ADHD) is having no one awake to talk about it with

It’s almost 4 AM and I want to talk about Holes 2003

I just rewatched the movie (on accident) AND I FORGOT HOW MUCH I LOVED IT

And what do you MEAN there was a sequel to the book!? Why hadn’t school given me this information?? I had to find this out 8 years after 5th grade??! I’m pissed and happy

Also, still love Zero and Stanley, just all the D Tent boys in general. I love them all, and also Sam and Kate, they were done so dirty

Why did I just find out this movie was done by Disney…I can’t believe that

Jay should have been Mal's closest friend

The movies REALLY lean into the idea of Evie being Mal's best friend, even though in the first film they don't even act that close. They say they have a "sister" relationship, and ignore the potential of a sibling like relationship for Jay and Mal.

The books tell us that Jay and Mal have stuck by each others sides, but in the movies they don't have many moments. Jay and Carlos are paired off, and Evie and Mal are paired off.

I mean, just look at the differences in their relationships. Sure, in the first film the girls build a friendship, but in the second? Evie ignores Mal's cries for help. Her friends is DROWNING, and she just adds to the pressure. She's more concerned about Mal's DRESS, and even then she ignores when Mal says that she can't breathe. She's trying to get her to stop using magic, despite knowing that Mal isn't just a fae but also Hades daughter (in other words, no human in her at ALL), which is something I have issues with as well but that's a different post. She's even the one who pulls Mal away from Carlos and Jay, who have arguably known Mal (friends for Jay's case) much longer than her, and even seemed upset when Carlos called them back. That's a red flag, right?

(Also, what was that thing about pulling her away from Ben?? Twice?? At times when Ben and Mal are saying goodbye, no less. It's not like they're going off somewhere or anything.)

And the third film... just didn't sit right? I don't know how to explain it.

As for Jay, and more of this is from the second movie but the third does have its moments, he seems to care more. He's protective of Mal, he's always right there. He's the one that says he'll take her back to the Isle (and I'm certain he'd stay, I can't see him leaving her there). He's been her friend since they were little. Why didn't we get to see them more? Is Disney against male-female friendships or something?

I'm not saying there's anything wrong with Evie as a character, I just don't think the girls work as best friends.

[ashwoods-21]

I miss Jay, and his smile, and his beanie, and his laugh, and his stupidity, and his angst fics

Can someone please write more Jay fics, especially on Jay and Mal friendship? Rereading is starting to get to me

Justice for Jay and Mal's friendship

Jay and Mal were BFFs before Carlos and Evie even got involved. Yet in the movies, their friendship is ignored in favour of Mal and Evie's.

This is not fair - he's shown to be one of her biggest supports in D1 and she should have gone to him with her struggles in D2 because he would have actually cared unlike Evie who just basically told her to shut up and suffer.

I want justice for their friendship - ship preferences aside.

“Robin x Finney” “Finney x Ernesto”

Make Finney Gay and happy, that’s genuinely all I want

Give me Mason Thames and Miguel Mora in another movie together, I settle for them being the best of friends in a movie I don’t care. Just give me my favorites together and happy

And get both of them, along with all of the dead/missing kids, and the Grabber OUT of the ships because it’s pissing me off and it’s fucking sick

Also, maybe I’ve watched Coco too many times and been to my family’s home countries too much but I can’t be the only one who heard “Ernesto” and finished it in my mind with “De la Cruz.” Which now that I type it out…these two are so polar opposites except for their first names and I’m so thankful for that. I don’t think I could handle Ernesto being murdering musician

If you’re planning on watching tbp2 and don’t want spoilers, don’t continue reading this

Decided to go back to an old hyper fixation of mine which is The Black Phone before remembering that there is a sequel that I was actively avoiding spoilers to until I could get myself to watch it. And I’m so glad I did that so I could go in fully blind into something for the first time in a while.

Can I just say, I rarely like sequels but I loved this one, FINNEY YOU ARE FOREVER GOING TO BE MY SWEET BOY AND IT BROKE ME TO SEE YOU CRY (I don’t care that Mason is only a few days older than me, I meant what I said)

And then Miguel… did you have to do this to me? I’m so glad you came back but as Robin’s little brother?? And still sweet??? I loved you when I was 14 and I love you still now, so glad you didn’t die on me this time

Gwen, your comebacks are still perfect and I wish to have your brain and speech to get those words together and out with the same sharp tongue that you have

I still fucking hate you Grabber/Bill

With all the pleasantries out the way, why tf did it feel kind of like Finn was an afterthought?? Did he not talk to the dead a lot in the first movie which helped him in escaping? I know Gwen interacted a lot with the dead or past too but I feel like her dream abilities are used more so to help people pass on. I don’t know, words are never on my side to say what I actually want to say. But like I would have liked to see Finn involved more with interacting with the dead kids to either help them, himself or both. It was fine to have it more Gwen focused, it was still a great movie that I can’t watch again like first because holy shit it was scary. But I wish Finn got more chances with his ability too. I see him as more as like a daytime medium and Gwen a nighttime medium with their own different styles in how their abilities work.

Also, I saw a few people talking about the phone call with their mom at the end and I’ll be so honest, yes I did cry. They were all emotional ok!? I’m a punk. But still, this is what I kind of meant, why couldn’t Finn hear that phone call too and talk to their mother and maybe Robin? In my mind at the time, Finn not hearing the phone felt like a way for Finn to finally be able to move on from everything at least a little bit. But I’m neurodivergent and hate change so I feel like he should’ve gotten to talk to his mom too and then he could finally move on.

Yes, I went on a weird rant, this should be expected by now when I get involved in something

When I learn digital art, it’s over

I’m drawing every single character I love, I’ll need everything taken away from me to go to sleep and eat

Jay of the Isle, Neil Josten, Jason Todd, Bakugou Katsuki, none of you can hide from me and my pencil

[ashwoods-21]

Joining any fandom will make music not the same anymore. I thought I’d be done with putting characters like Jay, Bakugou, and Jason Todd in every song I listen to

WHY IS ALMOST EVERY CHARACTER FROM AFTG TORMENTING ME ON MY PLAYLIST

I need Neil, Kevin, Andrew and Jean to leave me alone, I don’t want to play anymore

[ashwoods-21]

Since I’m on the very last pages of TKM, I’m just going to say my thoughts in order as I read because I have no one to talk about this with:

1. How are the Trojans so nice?? What is this? I think this series as me too used to attitude and rudeness

2. KEVIN CHANGED HIS TATTOO!? I knew this bitch had queen energy but holy shit ITS A QUEEN CHESS PIECE!

3. How are none of the Foxes throwing up with even the thought of playing against the Ravens? I’d be throwing up every single day and night and I hate throwing up

4. Does anyone like Matt’s dad before I become rude?

5. Kevin: “My father comes to all my games. That is enough.” Wymack trying his hardest not to show any emotion: “your mother would be proud of you.” Meanwhile I’m just SOBBING

6. The thought of Abby threatening Wymack a gruesome death if he didn’t say something nice and uplifting to his kids was the comedic relief I needed because I’m shaking

7. The stress is unbearable, I started pacing while reading

8. Am I hallucinating or did these pieces of paper just tell me that Kevin is playing with his left hand now and that score is 8-8? I have to be hallucinating right?

9. THEY WON!! THEY FUCKING WON!? KEVIN DAY YOU CRAZY SON OF A BITCH HOW?!

10. And here go Riko’s bitch ass- wait… LETS GO ANDREW!! Hit him in the head next!

11. …. The way I can’t even begin to get happy about Riko’s death because I was so scared for Neil. Anyway. FUCK YOU RIKO. But also damn by his brother is crazy

I can’t believe I just finished this book and I have two more to read. Holy shit I’m so happy I can breathe

[ashwoods-21]

Just need to know if I’m being weird

Am I the only one who will have a book and it will be the last few pages and instead of reading them, you’re just thinking about what happens next and suddenly you realize it’s been a week since you’ve picked said book up?

Anyway I’m almost done with The King’s Men and I don’t know what to expect
