PLEASE GAHD YES

Reposting so I can read later

a while ago I read this sci-fi short story from the 50s where a guy is kidnapped and interrogated by aliens using a very sophisticated lie detector, but he realizes that the lie detector works off technical truth, and with some careful phrasing and misdirection, he manages to make them believe that humans are a race of immortal, overpowered, omniscient telepathic beings. and it works.

my favorite part is when he tells them that humans are "capable of transportation without the aid of spaceships or any vehicles, just by using mental power to control physical matter". it's true, we can. it's called walking.

After going through 36 pieces of paper, and almost paying to get my overly shaky hand surgically removed, I finally finished this redesign of Ladybug’s suit. I cannot do digital art, so i did it on paper. I’m not very good at drawing so this is very bad, it would probably be better if someone who knew how to art did it.

You ask if Tanner Buchanan is queer so you can make fun of him. I ask if Tanner Buchanan is queer because I want a piece of that. We are not the same.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE GAHD

This is basically the muted conversation from the teaser:

"Hey Demetri! Moon and I had one of those emotional talks, and we realized that my constant obsession with you was more than platonic. I'm actually bi and realized when she dated a girl, it's actually fine if I date a guy. I'm also going to mit!"

Demetri: "Eli I could've told you this the whole time. It was never about college, it was about the fact that I'm deeply in love with you and don't wanna be apart. I tried to get your attention 4 seasons ago at that party, stupid."

Eli: "Are we still binary bros then?"

Demetri: "NO! Binary boyfriends."

Cue the dramatic hug because the writers can't let two boys kiss

Every Cobra Kai Character's Signature Weapon

A few CK characters have weapons they're associated with because they use them the most, Sam has the bo staff, Tory has nunchucks (and a katana that one time), Chozen has sais, Terry has a katana, etc etc. I was wondering, what if other characters had signature weapons? I decided to try and base them off of their personalities and fighting styles as I made my guesses. Without further ado, here we go:

Miguel - Miguel is generally one of the more balanced fighters in the game, leaning more towards offense than defense in a straight-forward, fast-paced style, so if I was to give him a weapon, it would probably be daggers or escrima sticks. Daggers would give him the quick, aggressive offense while also allowing a good bit of strategy and countering, while the escrima sticks have basically the same perks with slightly less damage, but more defense.

Robby - Robby has possibly the most balanced style in the series, with equal parts offense and defense, so a weapon that matches that is pretty easy to find. I think Robby would do amazingly with tonfa, it provides an amazing defense while also enhancing Robby's punches with the part of the stick above the handle. Tonfa in general are underrated weapons honestly.

Demetri - Demetri's almost pure defense, but what a lot of people don't seem to notice is his range. Being as tall and lanky as he is allows him to beat the shit out of you from slightly longer away than the rest of his peers, so a good weapon to reflect that would be a three-section-staff. It'll allow him to block and keep you away until he needs to counter, lock you in, and wail on you.

Hawk - Eli's a pretty offensive fighter, same as Miguel, but what I took into account for this is that he's kind of just inescapable. His fighting style involves running down his opponent, a complete rushdown, so I think a nice weapon for him would be a rope dart. He can swing it around ruthlessly with powerful speed, or use it to yank your ass all the way across the field to him.

Devon - Devon's fighting style, like Hawk's, revolves around offense, but she's also quite quick, so I think a decent weapon for her would be a wakizashi, allowing her to do good damage fast. Honestly, her fighting style isn't anything new so it wasn't easy to give her a unique weapon.

Kenny - Kenny's fighting style, however, is interesting because it's almost entirely composed of punches and arm-based moves. This kid is giving out haymakers like they're jolly ranchers in a playground. So I decided to give him a singular metal gauntlet. Yes, just one, he doesn't need two. This will give him a good edge to his punches while leaving a free flexible hand for grabs and such.

Now, I don't think the senseis would willingly use weapons, but if they were to, Johnny would use an axe or a tomahawk and Daniel would also use tonfa.

Miraculous: Paon Royale AU

I love thinking of Miraculous AUs, but I'm also indecisive. I don't really think I'm good at making these things and soon after I post'em they look bad to me. Even if my writing is good, I look back at it and cringe. But, I think I like this one. This is the Paon Royale AU.

 Major Change: The major alteration of this AU is that Hawkmoth doesn't have the Peacock or the Butterfly Miraculous. Instead, the Butterfly Miraculous was recovered by Fu and the Peacock Miraculous is being used by a mysterious evil miraculous holder. The identity of this holder will be kept secret for now, but the holder is related to the Agreste Family (but it isn't Gabriel or Felix).  Another major change is that Nathaniel is Marinette's childhood best friend, so Alya won't be Marinette's best friend here. A good friend, but not her best friend.

 Minor Changes:

➤ There will be a lot of Kwami Swaps. I thought about how other characters would look and act with different Miraculouses and abilities. A lot of information won't be given right now, but I'll get the obvious one out of the way. Nathaniel gets the Miraculous of the Fox. Alya won't get a Miraculous until Season 3 in this AU.

➤ The powers, weapons, and appearances of the Miraculouses will all be changed. I've had a lot of ideas for redesigned Miraculouses and they're pretty cool in my opinion. For example, Ladybug has two yoyos that look like actual yoyos instead of one yoyo that looks like a disc. Chat Noir has a staff with a wooden texture and two golden panther head shaped pommels.

➤ Marinette and Nathaniel will be a lot more confident because of being a lot closer than in the canon. Marinette won't be afraid to step up to Chloe and Nathaniel regularly tells off Sabrina.

➤ Sentimonsters will be much more humanoid. For example, Soundtrack (replacing Bubbler) will be a humanoid technological-being with a bubble wand where it's hand would be and a sound cannon where it's other hand would be. The Wild Diamond (replacing Animan) will simply be a diamond that controls all animals. Powerline (replacing Lady Wifi) will be a mass of sentient electric wires that manipulates technological objects.

➤ Chat Noir plays a bigger role in this AU. Because most if not all of the fanbase notices that in the canon, Chat is treated like a sidekick, not a partner.

➤ Gabriel does not need a Miraculous to be evil. Yeah, we're making him horrible. He's homophobic, mentally and emotionally abusive, blackmails a lot of people, and even hits Adrien when he steps too out of line. When Plagg sees this, he wants to Cataclysm Gabe on the spot, but he's got Adrien under his spell. Adrien blames himself and tells Plagg that it's his fault.

➤ Adrien blames himself for a lot of things in this AU because Gabriel convinced him that a lot of things are his fault. Plagg tries to tell the kid that some things aren't his fault, but he doesn't listen.

➤ Adrien is a closet bisexual and has a huge crush on Jean Duparc. He doesn't think what he has is a crush and is close friends with Jean. Plagg can tell though and hints at it, but Adrien is dense in this AU. Not as dense as in canon, but still dense.

➤ Marinette doesn't have a crush on Adrien in this AU because he apologized and cleared things up. She sees him as a close friend, and instead, she doesn't have a love interest until Luka. I ship Lukanette with all my heart.

➤ Since Ladybug and Chat Noir are going to have all these other powers, I realized that the Lucky Charm and Cataclysm will be kind of overshadowed. So, I thought of making them powerful and still a one time use. Ladybug can create whatever she wants with the Lucky Charm, and Chat Noir can create a sphere of destruction and aim his Cataclysm.

➤ I also had an idea of the Ladybug and Black Chat Miraculouses being able to create and destroy memories, but it's a risky power and they would need to be careful with it.

Hot Take: The ‘Oh, I need more powers to be worth something’ plotline in Elite Force should’ve went to Chase instead of Bree

Headcanon: One time, Trent visited the bionic island for a week, and for that whole week, Leo relentlessly bullied and humiliated him. No one stopped him. No one tried to tell him it’s wrong. Because they know that if it wasn’t him doing it, it would be them.

Okay but like, I’ve been thinking about what if Cobra Kai was/had a musical and the only songs I can think of are for Robby.

Either I’m Robby-pilled or he just has the most interesting life out of all of them…probably both.

Anyways, lmk if you wanna hear my hypothetical song ideas for a hypothetical Cobra Kai musical

Oh, honey.

Screaming crying throwing up at what they did to my boy Chase in Elite Force. MY BOYYYYY-
