Same Energy As “if I Didn’t Become Famous By 30, I Would Become A Serial Killer”

So we all know Dabi has a body made to deal with the cold, right? So that paired with his survival at that the peak and that weird glow in his chest have lead to a theory of mine, which is Dabi is using the excess heat in his body to burn hotter. Constantly cooling his body would allow him to survive the heat, and would account for the miracle of this garbage panda-hot topic fusion to have survived this long with his lack of self preservation instincts. Just my theory, though.

Spin this wheel of ~300 AO3 tags three times.

wait is Manny Jacinto’s character in The Acolyte really and truly called Darth Teeth?

because that’s hilarious and I love it

remember when we all thought Maul was a silly-sounding Sith name?

Darth Teeth

It even has matching th sounds to make it hard to pronounce without spitting a little

REblog if you are Asexual, support Asexuals, or spend most of your time actually thinking about Superheroes.

At this point, I'm counting on it.

Considering Jinn and Ambrosius, what if the other relics were a giant muscular Amazon and a femboy twink?

For those wondering, this is his reaction to his dog getting kidnapped.

It’s funny looking at the reactions of those around him once Kaon loses his cool

The question is what part of the combiner is Minimus, since I have this funny image in my head about Rodimus realizing that he's getting chewed out by Ultra Magnus's leg. Plus the thought of the minibots being so organized that they made their combined form both symmetrical and color coordinated is entirely in character for Minimus.

Another AU

This one is about Ultra Magnus again. Everything is the same EXCEPT Ultra Magnus actually consists of several combiners and when they de-combine they all turn out to be the same size as Minimus Ambus. One second they are Ultra Magnus, tall and proud, then they accidentally de-combine and now there’s five minibots running around and shouting about rules and regulations.

"every major baddie problem in the lmk universe is caused by SWK not dealing with his shit properly"

exept he dealt with all the shit and i'm tired of people ignoring it to paint him as an ignorant, uncaring bastard.

(very very minor s4 spoilers, so the cut)

Demon Bull King? Got his ass whooped and was sealed away for however long years it took for an entire ass megapolis to be built literally on top of him, causing absolutely no trouble to anyone whatsoever. Oh, and what sealed DBK? The staff. And if you'd care to know SWK outside of the LEGOverse, you'd realize how strong was SWK's resolve to seal DBK - keep him relatively safe, one might say - by using his trusty staff. The guy would literally die seven times over than let go of this thing.

Also people like, ignore the fact that canonically SWK stuck around the area (for the most part to stalk MK, but still), so he was literally there to deal with the DBK family if something went southwards? He didn't, because MK was able to hold the staff and the legend of the Monkie Kid then began.

(also zero antagonistic feelings towards DBK from SWK, like, whatsoever. i bet the dude actually wanted DBK to be free, cuz he felt bad abt it)

Macaque? In a morally gray manner, still very dealt with. SWK killed the dude. He was literally as dealt with as it can be. Or what, should SWK have predicted that after thousand upon thousand of years later a spirit (he dealt with too) would pull Mac out of Diyu? Yeah, I'd like to see that thought process.

SWK isn't omnipotent, he isn't even that far-thinking. Never was, actually. So holding that against him is like, very stupid. Especially because you don't do it to any other character in the show. 

Spider Queen? Wouldja look at that, also pretty much dealt with. We don't really know how exactly, but we know that she lost literally every ounce of power she had and had to resort to living in the sewers, prolly never to cause troubles ever again because, well, we never even heard of her until the special. SQ was pulled onto the scene by the Lady Bone Demon.

Which is, again, something SWK couldn't predict even if he tried.

And now into the fun part.

Lady Bone Demon? Was sealed away by Tripitaka and also didn't cause any trouble until DBK decided to use this freaky coffin he knew literally zero things about for his plans.

"But he should've killed LBD!!!"

He tried. Believe him he tried. This decision just wasn't his, and if you hold it against him and not Tripitaka, shame on you.

"He should have told the crew about LBD!"

He really couldn't have.

And people thinking that are blatantly ignoring SWK's character. Not that obnoxious fan favorite uncaring bastard one.

SWK deals with things on his own. That is just how he is, how he always was and he never learned to do it the other way around. If that's a fight, he'll do it, because he's damn strong. If it's to scout the mountain, he'll do it, because Bajie is a lazy ass motherfucker. If it's to find food for Trip, he'll do it, cuz he's fast and his eyes are awesome.

Same applies here.

LBD? Tried to kill her and Trip didn't let me -> Basically I didn't do the job right -> WTF I always do my job right, I am Sun Wukong hello???

It was, dare I say, a question to his pride, and SWK will forever be prideful. And when he acts on his pride, he does it with style and flare, in the most stupid way possible.

Hence all of the s2 off-screen investigation arc.

"Well, he should've told about the Samadhi rings!"

It would've endangered Mei, questioned his at this point in time very shaky authority and ability to handle shit, and prolly would've fucked Mei up a very whole lot.

You don't go and say to a person that they are a part of the most dangerous seal in the world and could die and destroy everything they love because you fucked up long time ago (again, very much jabbing at his mentality of 'Sun Wukong can do no bad job, and if he does he'll better fucking die trying to make it right').

Was his plan a shitty one? Obviously. Like, no question asked, it was a shit show of a plan. Very in character, though (SWK handles all the shit because he thinks he can).

And this little character arc of SWK not learning a damn thing results in him, oh golly you would not believe it, running off to do things on his own because he thinks he can handle it, because he's THE Sun Wukong who already handled this in the past.

Who woulda thought.

MINOR S4 SPOILERS START HERE

And the new addition to the baddie group, Azure Lion. Won't be addressing all 'SWK is a betraying bitch' because the show refuses to give us SWK's perspective and I hate it.

But you already know what I will say, because you know the truth. He was dealt with. Got his ass whooped and sealed away in the inky scroll. To be pulled back onto the scene by a third party that Wukong literally couldn't have known about.

See a pattern?

SWK deals with the shit, some unknown variable meddles in it, suddenly SWK is an incapable asshole who left the problems for the poor lmk crew to deal with.

MINOR S4 SPOILERS END HERE

Wukong did his job. Someone fucked him over by undoing his job. He tried to deal with it again the only way he knows how, but the solo play doesn't fly anymore, so he made it kinda worse.

He's not an unbearable, incapable asshole because of it.

And I'm tired of people not seeing this.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk, I am Sun Wukong Apologist till the day I die.

Have a nice day!

If I remember correctly he is described as having an air of sleaziness.

"You could go any direction you like with your interpretation of (OG/Shang Qinghua), just come up with a characterization from scratch. I guess I imagine him being even slimier and more resentful than SVSSS Shang Qinghua, hungry for respect and lashing out at all perceived slights." So he's Su Mingshan.

Basically. Jin Guangyao is also a top contender for sample characterization, depending on whether Original Shang Qinghua was capable of being charming / likable. I want to say something about the intelligence of Jin Guangyao vs. Su Minshan here, but JGY let his spite and resentment make some truly foolish and evil moves, so I don’t think it really matters. 

I don’t think SVSSS ever makes it clear whether the public perception of Original Shang Qinghua pre-betrayal was more “What a helpful and upstanding [martial] family man! Shame about his mediocre cultivation and low background.” (Jin Guangyao) or more “Oh, that guy.” / the main thing most people remember about this guy is the earworm diss track 13-year-old Lan Jingyi wrote about him that got mysteriously popular (Su Minshan, I assume).
