Normalize only talking about Rin-Venka-Kitay because I dont forgive that asian Draco Malfoy guy

[ronniekins1238]

literally they are the golden trio main characters and nezha is the asshole side villain who can't hold a candle to them

[waterandsilver]

personally if i were an artist and teenage girls happened to gravitate towards my art i would consider that the highest fucking honour imaginable

[waterandsilver]

there are certain emotions that can only be felt by teenage girls and god

I LOVE IT WHEN ENDINGS CIRCLE BACK TO THE BEGINNING!!!

I LOVE IT WHEN CHARACTERS MIRROR EACH OTHER!!!!!

I LOVE IT WHEN CHARACTERS SEAL THEIR FATES IN THEIR FIRST SCENES!!!!

I LOVE IT WHEN CHARACTERS' GREATEST TRAITS ARE ALSO WHAT DOOM THEM IN THE END!!!!!

[bluedietcoke]

y’all love the morally gray, snarky, grief stricken characters until it’s a woman. i’ve seen so much discourse regarding female characters who display the exact same character traits as male leads and are criticized for it while the men are praised. let women be cruel and vindictive. let them deal with their grief and trauma in destructive ways. let them be real. give them the same treatment you would give to your favorite male love interest.

Sring Venka from the Poppy War trilogy

[dcvina-claires]

this is so “do you love him?” “yes. more than anyone else in the world” and “fight well. keep us safe. i love you.” and “he loves her. of this he is certain” and “is there anyone in the coalition you trust?” “venka” and “lovely, wonderful kitay” and “she would draw this moment out forever if she could” and “i left for you” and “i’ll hate you for it but i’ll love you forever” and “she terrifies him and he loves her so much it hurts” and “should’ve realized that venka was trying to save her life” and “kitay. her best friend. her anchor” and “ah, i get it. you’re in love” and “did they love one another so fiercely, so desperately?” and rin and nezha and kitay and venka

[polartss]

Rin and Venka hii 🤲🏼🫠

[restenergy]

god, venka.

[scorchedhearth]

characters who dig themselves out of their graves (whether literal or metaphorical) are at the top of the list. nothing beats a character who should have died but didn't and comes back to haunt their own life and the world around them, benevolent or violent it doesn't matter, it's enthralling either way

1. Three ships

I think I’m pretty predictable when I say Steddie, but I also really like Ronance and Lumax!

2. Last song

I had to open up my Spotify for this one, since I keep a lot of low-level background music on when I’m working, but it’s “Good as It Gets” by Little Hurt.

3. Last movie

I actually just rewatched Knives Out last night because one of my friends had never seen it before, and I had to rectify that immediately.

4. Currently reading

I was reading The Dragon Republic by RF Kuang over break, but I went back to school and didn’t take the book with me. RIP. So, I started The Green Mile by Stephen King (I’ve only seen parts of the movie) and I’m really liking it so far!

5. Currently watching

I actually might be starting a rewatch of Stranger Things later today because another one of my friends has never seen it.

6. Currently craving

Sleep. No, in all seriousness, a good batch of garlic knots. But I don’t trust any pizza places in this hell state, so that’s gotta wait until spring break.

[chainsawmanthoughts]

These Yoshida panels have me in a chokehold. The way he can't make eye contact with her while apologizing and would sooner look at her severed arm. The way those two lines of dialogue have me revisiting all of part 2 just to take in all the memories of a "normal life" he and Asa share (ofc eternity aquarium doesn't qualify as "normal" but I mean hijinks with schoolmates).

I think given the isolating nature of his career/worldview, even the limited capacity of their relationship would occupy a meaningful spot in his life. I think he even had a bit of fun at times.

He chose to express his remorse while acknowledging that Asa even followed his instructions, which suggests reflection and sincere guilt. I can only imagine that he's already mourning their short-lived school days and feels that having a hand in ending them was inevitable.
