Banana Fish Be Like

*Brennan revealing one of the main characters, a cop, is crooked* oh?

*Suddenly revealing that a whole hierarchy of crooked cops have managed to infiltrate the justice system* OH!

*Joyce, losing her shit after having a truly fucked up 24 hours of nearly dying and breaking countless laws, ready to kick anyones ass who gets in her way*

*Hopper, internally*

Hey so is anyone gonna talk about the fact that most of the paladins (bar Keith with his dimensional trip on a whale) have been gone from earth for roughly 5 years, but it’s only been less than 2 for them. Their families have been mourning them for 5 whole years, imagining them dead or, more likely, imagining missing 5 years of their lives and their children returning as adults in their early 20s. Like it’s such a throwaway line when Lance sees his family, but when he tells the youngest ones that they’ve gotten so big, they respond with “you’re exactly the same”. It’s even more noticeable with the main Garrison cadets being fully grown adults trusted with being leading pilots in experimental crafts. What a shock it must have been for the Garrison to be expecting cadets like these only more hardened with experience to come home, men and women growing up in a galactic war, only to be met with the same young faces that left all those years ago. How hard would it have been to sit and discuss war council with the legendary Voltron, while looking into a fifteen year old girls face knowing you were sending her out to possibly die. I think about it a lot. And it’s horrifying. The next question is: who is gonna write the fic where the garrison is trying to prepare for the final battle, and has to simultaneously wrap their heads around the fact that they are sending kids to fight their war? The higher ups will dismiss them despite their reputation because they see them laughing and goofing off in spare time, only to confront them with reprimands to reveal that the paladins, particularly Lance, joke to stay positive in the face of the horrors they’ve met. (And it’s obvious that these kids may be young but they have gone through more than anyone can comprehend, as Pidge offers a plan based on the horrific night of going solo against Sendak in the Castle of Lions, or Hunk absently mentioning the hallucinations they experienced prior to earth via a monstorous being and how he was going to sacrifice himself, or even Lance letting slip that he LITERALLY DIED. What can you say to these horrors?)

Everyone in Orario: “You can’t associate with people of other familias, let alone be friends! That just isn’t how familias work, you’re going to start wars!”

*Bell, 14 years old and a oblivious dumbass, grabbing Lilli, Welf, Mikoto and Sanjono* “I’m going to make these people part of my familia now try and stop me :)))))”

*immediately starts hyperventilating*

gravity falls + text post meme (5/?)

How do we never talk about the fact that Mineta was Mt Lady's intern? We all knew that Mineta really wanted to intern under Mt Lady cause he's a perverted little dickhead, and that it wasn't what he expected due to that short clip of him vacuuming her room, but why would Mt Lady take on a student like Mineta who barely stood out in the Sports Festival? Why did she not turn him down when she realised his perverted nature? I'd like to think she took one look at his application to intern under her, remembered that one loser of a kid in the festival who deviated between being a coward and making goes at the girls, and just thought; 'I'm gonna ruin this kids life.' And so Mineta goes to intern under her, thinking it's going to be a constant montage of sexy close-ups and flirting, and instead he gets absoluTE HELL. While she's known for her laid back, almost lazy personality, Mt Lady didn't get those thick thighs that could crush a mans skull when she's NORMAL size for nothing. She puts Mineta through hell training that makes him long for Aizawa's gentle touch, and backs it up by lounging in front of him afterwards like she hasn't broken a sweet while he performs tasks he's always thought to be 'the women's job'. Every chance she gets, she flips the kids' misogynistic view of the world, and laughs gleefully as he cries and wails in response. They go out in patrol and Mineta expects to stand behind Mt Lady and get glorious shots of her ass. Wrong! Mineta is too busy using his quirk to keep the structure of falling buildings stable, a job he's always thought supporting sidekicks performed (always females to him, as of course men would be out there fighting!), and by the time he's done Mt Lady has already crushed the villains single-handily. No sexy shots for him. I know a lot of people like to label Mt Lady with incredibly derogatory and sexual characterisations due to her interactions with the media, but I'd like to think that Mt Lady knows the stigma still prevalent against women in tight suits fighting 'a mans job', and performs her job as a satire of this misogynistic portrayal. She hams it up in front of cameras because she's new and that's the only way to get sponsors, but also so she has enough publicity when she's big that her fight for feminism reaches a wider audience and has FAR more impact. She's a clever and powerful woman, she's just keeping those aspects under the radar for now until they're at their most useful in impacting social stigma. (Mineta learnt to fear Mt Lady, but unfortunately she was never able to change his misogynistic and perverted nature, clearly. So instead she makes sure that any internship or sidekick gig he tries to get with other female heroes always ends up with a fellow feminist, who beats both his ass and shitty ideals until they finally break and enters pro-hero industry as an avid feminist and great friend to a bunch of women who see him as their greatest piece of feminist work).

The best thing about Blue Exorcist is that the True Cross Academy literally lets a demon that they CLEARLY don't trust be in charge of the entire school. Just like...they don't trust Mephisto at all yet they let him take care of the next gen of exorcists???? Who the hell let this flamboyant sinner take control???

"If you talk shit about my fruitcake one more time, Jane, I WILL go Magical Mom on your ass."

okay hear me out

a magical girl anime

but with moms instead

y’all are missing out on the funniest relationship dynamic of CR2

Forget about the tangled web of love that stretches between the M9 (barring Caduceus our aroace king of staying out of drama), I would love if the love triangle between Fjord, Jester and Caleb just somehow naturally fell into a little triad all on its own.

Like no dramatic love confessions, they do that shit constantly with each other in secret little ways, but just Jester coming home to her mother like

Jester: mama I want to introduce my partners to you

The Ruby: ah yes that handsome orc boy that you kept going on about, he was so--

The Ruby: wait, partners???

Jester: lmao yeah I have Fjord, who rejected an eldritch monster he was accidentally raising to get close with Mother Nature herself, but that hobo wizard who eventually cleaned himself up and became one of the most powerful casters around is also my bf.

The Ruby, the actual sex god on this plane of existence and all others: hell yeah my daughter deserves the best, get ‘em my baby girl.

The dynamics of it are so funny as well. Like, Caleb is a highly respected wizard now under the tutelage of several powerful figures, so any time he goes to some sort of elbow-rubbing-fancy-pancy wizard event he of course brings his beaus.

And people are like??? “Ah yes, members of the iconic and world-saving group you are part of Mr Widogast, they must be of such high pedigree.”

And then someone recognises Fjord as Captain Tusktooth who had some sort of fake accent going on for years at a time (and didn’t he sleep with that Captain lady who was horny for water or something??? And then get her killed by the pirate king? There was something about a forbidden eldritch god?) and is praying that Mr Widogast’s other partner is normal--

but the first thing that Jester tells anyone is: “have y’all heard about my mother, best lay in the land? I am the daughter of the greastest sexer around and my childhood imaginary friend is my personal god, anyway how are you?”

Even better, out of the three, the tiny blue tiefling is the only one who can pick up and hoist their partners around, making the comical sight of long-cat and long-suffering Caleb being slung bonelessly over one shoulder, while a blushing Fjord is held like a football under the other as Jester parades them down the street in her cute frilly dresses.

Fucking FjordxJesterxCaleb is where the good shit is at wake up sheeple
