i need kitchen nightmares level life coaching rn
i do love that both yuki and kyo loopholed the curse at separate times by leaning forward to put their heads on tohru's shoulder as an alternative to a hug
these boys who have never had any real reason to hug someone figuring out a workaround because the urge to embrace and be embraced by tohru specifically is so strong
I hate when I say things like "oh I want an ipod classic but with bluetooth so I can use wireless headphones" and some peanut comes in and replies with "so a smartphone with spotify?" No. I want a 160GB+ rectangular monstrosity where I can download every version of every song I want to it and it does nothing except play music and I don't need a data connection and don't have to pay a subscription to not have ads and don't have popups suggesting terrible AI playlists all over the menus.
Gimme the clicky wheel and song titles like "My Chemical Romance- The Black Parade- Blood (Bonus Track)- secret track- album rip- high quality"
Thinking about the fruits basket zodiac curse as it shouldve been. Not when it was considered a curse, but a promise.
A promise to stay by eachothers side. A promise built on love for eachother. A promise that ultimately gave the spirits the ability to reincarnate and continually be together.
Sometimes I like to make myself sad and think about what this couldve looked like without those involved being abused physically and mentally. What a god without separation anxiety and a horrible upbringing couldve provided and gotten from having a true loving bond with the zodiac members.
Ive always wondered if the cycle of zodiac reincarnations we see in fruits basket is how it has always been, or if it grew to strain so much over the course of the curse being present in the family. I have to imagine each cycle is different. Different parents, different support systems (if any at all), a different god to watch over them all…
There has to have been one cycle everything was good, maybe hundreds of years ago towards the “beginning”. Where all the spirits were together in physical form, living in the same village/compound/estate, celebrating the news years together and no one is dreading it.
I think too much about it.
The “That’s immoral you shouldn’t write that, we need to get that taken down” discourse on tiktok right now is PISSING ME OFFF
Wdym you want censorship for a literal ARCHIVE are you fucking stupid
Ao3 was literally founded to preserve works that were largely getting taken down due to censorship
Censorship is the opposite of what Archive of Our Own stands for
The TAGS and WARNINGS are there for a REASON. Use them and stop complaining
The universal rule—don’t like, don’t read
It’s THAT simple
blurr's whole existence in tfa is so fucking funny to me genuinely. he gets introduced with a whole episode entirely about him where he gets zero lines and you're not even sure if he's sentient until nearly the end. he doesnt show up again for half a season. he gets like five lines of dialogue but theyre long as fuck. he RUNS to another planet (NOT FLY. NO FLYING. HE RUNS THERE). he dies immediately upon arriving. hes the only character in the whole show to die and not come back.
The way tumblr had me thinking he was going to have more appearances bc of how much fanart i was seeing while watching the show. Then I finally met him in his episode and was SO EXCITED and liked him a lot AND THEN HE DIES AND IT WAS ACTUALLY HELLA DARK-
I was thinking, “theres no way….”
