they do say that? Don’t know what to tell you, *facepalm* perhaps. And I understand about having too much of anything on the dash. Hang on there :)
Yeah, they're comparing things like catcalling with rape, like it's the same thing... I'm sorry, but that's trivialising sexual assault, which is a very horrific experience to go through and it's nowhere near as awful as catcalling...
lordofjudgement replied to your post:THERE’S SHIT GOING DOWN ON ME DASH AGAIN BUT I...
that is probably me. XD Sorry.
Not really. I mean, yes, people still thinking the whole Mary Sue issue is about misogyny instead of just plain bad character creation regardless of sex (why do they act like only female characters created by women are described as MS like ???) is kind of old, but I was actually referring to people on my dash talking about sexual assault when it's actually sexual harassment. Still bad, but don't call it murder when it's a punch in the face. Plus I get really over sensitive with these kind of subjects, so having it en masse on my dash is really not doing me any good.
Cloud Strife and Genesis Rhapsodos.
Thank you for asking ^.^
Cloud Strife:
character: hate them | don’t really care | like them | LOVE them | THEY ARE MY PRECIOUS
ship with: Meteor (I even hooked them up in Dissidia because I’m such a nice person <3)
friendship them with: The Lifestream
general opinions: The only good Cloud is a dead Cloud! Well, a mako-poisoned Cloud would be okay too because he wouldn’t be able to say stupid things ^.^ But to be honest, I wouldn’t have grown to hate him that much if he hadn’t beaten Sephiroth because weak characters like him still have a role to fulfill.Seeing him lose in a pathetic fashion would have been hilarious XDGenesis Rhapsodos:
character: hate them | don’t really care | like them | LOVE them | THEY ARE MY PRECIOUS
ship with: Sephiroth
friendship them with: Sephiroth and Angeal. I actually dislike Angeal but…yeah…I can’t deny that they are friends.
general opinions: I love this character, which is exactly why I don’t like some things the writers did to him: While I’m only a bit angry with them for not showing more of his backstory (because at least I have my own headcanons about that), I will never forgive them for making him eat a dumbapple with Zack.

I hate Alvin/Jude, too. Um, no thanks it does not exist XD
Eeeeeeeexactly. In my world, it is not a thing that exists. I will close my eyes, cover my ears, and sing 'la la la la la' at the top of my lungs if anyone tries to convince me otherwise.

1. Favorite fictional couple?
Difficult. Extremely difficult. I tend to fall in and out of love with ships as I fall in and out of series.
However, if we're going to go with the couples that have been the most enduring in my love and continue to endure to this day, it's gonna be an eternal toss-up between Len/Luka from Vocaloids and Alvin/Leia from Tales of Xillia.
Honorable mentions would go to Heisuke/Chizuru from Hakuouki, Jude/Tsunpal from Tales of Xillia, and Kuzuryu/Peko from Dangan Ronpa 2.
2. Favorite fictional character?
Oh no. Another really hard question. This is totally like asking me to play favorites with my children. D:
But...uh...let's say Kino from Kino's Journey. This girl is so interesting to watch as she interacts with all the towns that she travels to and she has such an interesting philosophy on life. I love how she both changes and remains the same over the course of her journey. Also, while she obviously has a tragic past, it doesn't define her entire existence and I positively adore that. She's such an enigmatic character.
Leia is an extremely, EXTREMELY close second with Colette being a slightly more distance third.
5. Favorite fictional villain?
...No seriously, why did I reblog this thing? This is so difficult!
If we're saying pure villain, I'm gonna have to go with The Scorpion from The Devil's Carnival. I always have a soft-spot for villains that are just evil because. No sob story, no tragic past - they are evil because they want to be and they enjoy every minute of it to the fullest. The way this guy acts throughout his section of the story, his tone when he's singing, even something as mundane as his motions; it speaks for how much unbridled joy he is getting out of his tormenting that I can't help but love him.
8. Favorite fictional setting/universe?
Setting is very important to me in shows, so there's no way I can pick one here. Instead, let's go with three: Kino's Journey, Tales of Xillia, and Bokurano.
Kino's Journey is all about examining the different locals and their customs, so I instantly took a liking to all the variety the show provided. It's a super interesting study of interconnectedness and also complete isolation.
Tales of Xillia was a breathing, living world for me. In Rieze Maxia, each town was tailored so uniquely to their setting and particular strengths that each town had a very unique flavor to it, while Elympios was certainly in decline it also provided solutions to similar problems that were wholly unique and telling of their long split history. (Also, don't mention Lobster Dad 'cause that did about everything wrong that it could have with the setting and we don't want to send me on a rant, now do we?)
Bokurano is set in an approximation of the real world only with occasional giant robot battles with children piloting. But you know what the great thing is about it? The children act like children would in this situation; the adults act like adults would in this situation; the military acts like the military would in this situation. It is treated as a real and serious threat and not something blandly awesome. For me, that was what sealed the deal and made me really love this show; yes it's just the real world, but it is actually exploring the implications of giant robot battles to save the world on all people involved which only makes all the heartrending moments all that more poignant.
15. Least favorite fictional pet?
Uhm...this is really difficult because every pet I could think of I either liked or was indiferent towards...wait, can I include Cedric? He is a squeaky voiced owl that follows you around constantly...
Cedric the Owl from King's Quest 5.

the new maleficent movie is awesome :)
IT WAS! I had people telling me it was awful before I watched it, telling me "ugh they changed it and like she doesn't turn into a dragon but instead turns the raven into one and it's not even like the original film". I mean, forget the whole let's get deep into the character's back story and why she did what she did and forget about creative freedom, if she doesn't turn into an evil dragon, it's not worth it.
I love when villains are given a back story, not just the same all illogical "they're evil because they're evil" which I really don't like both because it's lazy and because of my own philosophic/religious persuasion ("evil doesn't exist, it's just the absence of good and nothing is entirely devoid of good"), so this was just the kind of film I was needing. Also, as the film was finishing I was so wanting it to have a happy ending, but told myself that would not happen (because of how these films work nowadays), but then it did and it made me so happy.

3. Favorite fictional TV show?
At the moment I would have to say In The Flesh. It's the only show in a long time that I like without the "what the actual fuck are they doing they're ruining it" I get at times, like every time they stop the story in Teen Wolf just so Scott and Kira can kiss and be so lovely dovey.
5. Favorite fictional villain?
Maleficent. When I was little, I watched Sleeping Beauty a bunch of times and it was partly because of Maleficent. I don't know what it is about her that I love so much, but I just do. On a side note, yes, I liked the new Maleficent film.
10. Least favorite fictional character?
Kvothe (I had to look this little bitch's name up) from The Name of the Wind. Actually, everyone from the past sections in that book, but Kvothe especially. I just... Ugh! Let me summarise Kvothe in a couple of sentences: "Look at me! I'm Kvothe! I'm an expert lute player and I know sooo much magic! See, I got into Magic University waaay before others, I was the youngest student there. Oh, I also got my Talent Pipes on my first try like I'm so awesome." He annoys me. I hate him with a burning passion.
11. Least favorite fictional TV show?
See, I could say Glee, but in order to be fair, I've decided to only choose a show I have actually watched for a long time and that I used to like in the past: Adventure Time. I loved it in the very beginning, but then it started to get too silly and the episodes made no sense and ended abruptly, a clear sign of the writers not knowing how the fuck to close each story. I stopped at S05E31. The reason I dislike it so much now is the fact that people kept telling me to keep watching, how "it gets better, I promise" and seeing it everywhere being treated as the biggest show ever. I just got tired and think it's rather overhyped (is that what the kids say these days?)
Jade Curtiss :)
This should be interesting! Okay here we go!How I feel about this character: Jade is such an fascinating character. On one hand, I feel he is respectable, witty, and powerful…..yet on the other, I feel he is very hypocritical and has an inclination to be close-minded. I think one of the things I really enjoy about how his character was written - and all the characters from Abyss for that matter - is how three-dimensional he is despite the seemingly cliche characteristics he is stapled with. I also think it’s really awesome to see older characters able to grow together with a younger cast, especially with Jade since his growth doesn’t stem entirely from the “youthful” perspective. It’s really hard to articulate all my thoughts about Jade, but the TL;DR is that I appreciate him as a character, especially his ever so subtle moments of kindness and compassion that are so carefully intertwined with his harsh exterior. All the people I ship romantically with this character:Absolutely no one. In fact, I hate the idea of Jade being romantically involved with anyone. I don’t find it impossible for Jade to love someone, I just think that it is highly uncharacteristic of him due to his logic-based perceptions of the world. My non-romantic OTP for this character:PEONY. Jade is far more level with Peony than most, if not all of the characters introduced. Although Jade has a history with both Peony and Dist, I feel Jade and Peony have a sort of unspoken respect for one another that makes them brotherly. Their interactions are also really playful and fun to watch…..so I feel like you can really get the sense Jade enjoys Peony’s company despite his claims otherwise.My unpopular opinion about this character:I don’t know if this is an unpopular opinion but….. OH WELL.I actually think that deep down, Jade has a really warm heart. Although he seems cold and emotionless, Jade is just a highly logical person who cannot see the value of bringing his emotions into light. If you look at the way Jade handles his companions (especially in critical points in the story where tensions are high) you can really get the sense that he is not just some selfish, emotionless jerk.One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon:This is honestly really hard for me to say. I really really love the story from Abyss and I am extremely satisfied with the information presented to us. It would be foolish of me to say that there is nothing better that could have/should have happened with Jade….but in all honesty there is nothing in particular I wish would/had happened to him. I JUST LOVE ABYSS A LOT OKAY?I know there’s a huge lack of detailed reasoning behind my thoughts here and I apologize. After writing this, I really feel like I need a nice little Abyss-refresher session. It’s been too long and that is not okay.
