How the Beybladers would react if you came out to them (part 2)
Michael: Happy for you, bud!
Olivier: Oh? So that's what you wanted to tell me? (He was expecting something more exciting)
Ming-Ming, not looking up from her phone: Let me add you to a few group chats.
Bryan: Yeah! Drinks on meee!!
Max: I'm there for you if you ever need to talk.
Giancarlo: Wonderful! You should celebrate by going shopping!
Ivan: And you just figured that out, or?
Rick: I have a gay cousin... I mean, we think he's gay. Anyway, I'm cool with it.
Kiki: [long silence] Anyway, back to what I was saying...
Yuriy: Ok.
Raul: I thought you were already out?
Grandpa Kinomiya: AND IF ANYONE IS MEAN TO YOU, THEY WILL FACE THE JUSTICE OF MY SWORD!
Day 9 of MayBlade and Mermay~
Hiromi just being cute and chill :3
Mayblade Day 26: Cosplay I managed to draw something for Mayblade! yay :D I probably won't have time to draw another but I'll seeee Hiei from Yu Yu Hakusho is one of my other favourite characters, so when I saw this prompt I got the idea to draw Kai dressed as Hiei! XD The anatomy didn't come out as well as I liked, but didn't want to spend too long on it. I just have to keep trying to improve! (I have a long way to go still)
How the Beybladers would react if you came out to them
Takao: Hey, that's cool! I love that for you!
Daichi: Why are you telling me this? ... wait. Is that the one where you change your name, or?
Ralf: Thanks for letting me know.
Mathilda: Congratulations! I'm so proud of you!
Romero: Wonderful! Bravo! Now, back to training.
Emily: I mean, science says all human traits and behaviours exist on a spectrum. (Then proceeds to talk about the Kinsey scale, penguins, and gender studies)
Judy Tate: Sure, I'll add this to my data.
Johnny: THIS CALLS FOR A PAAAARRTYYYY!!!
Sergei: You're happy? Good. That's what is important.
Garland: Of course, you told me because you knew I would be supportive, as a Siebald. I assume you are familiar with my great-uncle, Oscar Siebald, who was not only an accomplished fencer, but also an out and proud gay man. My family values honor, loyalty, discipline, we do not discriminate based on private matters. In fact, the Siebald Honor Code states...
Lee: Thank you for trusting me with that information.
Tao: In the tall grass, the wild hares see eyes and paws, but the eagle only sees hares.
Julia: Wait, you didn't know?
Kai: read at 11:28
2 hours later: 👍
some of you are saying enemies to lovers when you mean rivals to lovers and some of you are saying enemies to lovers when you mean enemies with benefits. but these are all distinct categories
unfortunately i dont think its queerbaiting if the creator is just so terminally heterosexual that they never remotely considered the same gender relationship their show is centered around could be read as romantic. it is deeply painful however.
MAYBLADE – DAY 7
👂 PIERCINGS 💎
this is how new yorkers @ mamdani
Strange racists and homophobes on the internet seem to have access to an alternate way cooler version of TV than me. "every white character on TV is in an interracial relationship" "every show has a gay couple in it" "main characters keep having to secretly be bisexual and nonbinary" "every show has gratuitous full frontal nudity" like damn promise?? What channel???
This queen really conquered Ba Sing Se like that
I love characters who would die for each other but will not, under any circumstances, communicate a single honest feeling.
i NEED people to realise foreshadowing is. in fact. a literary device. and not a Bad Thing. the audience picking up on your hints is a Good Thing. because. it makes the story and it’s conclusion make sense. and some people will not see those but enjoy seeing them on a second read through. red herrings are one thing but if your novel consists of nothing but red herrings it’s not a coherent story it’s just a collection of paragraphs that don’t actually plausibly link to one another. you're not fighting with the audience you don’t look clever you look like you don’t know how basic fiction works. be vulnerable for once in your goddamn life and don't treat writing like a game to be won where the audience losing is a good thing.
Getting to the end of a story and going "THE CLUES WERE THERE THE WHOLE TIME!" is always joyous for me whether or not I picked up on the clues leading up
If I saw the clues and caught the hints then yes! I am clever and me and the author/creator/artist etc were in on it together the whole time!
If I didn't notice the clues or got fooled but can clearly see them in hindsight then "Ha! You won this time storyteller! I am delighted by this game we play!' and then I enjoy putting the pieces together afterwards and enjoying how clever it was. I feel like the creator respects me as an audience
If there is a "twist" that comes with 0 clues or foreshadowing at all I'm annoyed. I'm pissed off. I feel like I'm being condescended to and patronised. It's not clever or interesting and makes me annoyed I ended up caring about characters and plot points that ended up meaningless.
Because it's not that these stories don't have foreshadowing or plot clues. They just abandon it for a "surprising twist"
A story that pays off the clues is letting me into the fun and makes a participant in the story
A story that just gives me a "shock" but no pay off is telling me not to engage or get attached or care. So why would I watch?
OMG! THIS!
Random plot twists that don't connect to anything in the story are not clever. If we don't see it coming because the writer didn't provide any clues, they aren't clever and it's totally unsatisfying (and I will NEVER read this writer again). These clues need not be lit up in neon with a parade of elephants and showgirls. But they need to be present
I'm a writer and am rarely surprised. Often, if I am surprised it's because the writer was a dumbass and included a "twist" that makes no sense (and therefore isn't really a twist, it's just random bullshit). If a writer genuinely surprises me, without being an absolute dumbass, I am FUCKING DELIGHTED! I will tell everyone I know to read the book/see the movie/watch the show.
Foreshadowing is the reward for paying attention. It's the story letting you in on the secret like a co-conspirator because you're the clever little audience member who has been picking up on the clues the writer has been setting up.
It even makes watching/reading again more worthwhile because if you didn't notice the foreshadowing the first time you have the joy of being able to notice the things you missed!
The Bladebreakers as quotes from the Kardashians
Kai: I may be a douche to some people, but I actually do run companies.
Hiromi: That’s so embarrassing for your life. And your soul.
Takao: I’m a big star. I don’t need to be dealing with you, peasants.
Rei: I really want to live on a farm and have chickens and raise animals and have a family.
Max: Seems like everyone enjoys me being here, but then again who wouldn’t?
Daichi: Ever since Hiromi called me a troll, I love using that word.
Kenny: I don’t have any cell service here and it’s making me have a rash.
Hitoshi: A lot of adults don’t think it’s their place to interfere with kids. I interfere all the time.
