One thing that kills me about house of the dragon is that Rhaenyra, Rheanys, Corlys, and Leanor are all trying to convince us that Jacaerys and Lucerys are black. That shit is so funny to me, it’s so funny to me. It’s giving that one clip from that one movie
Alicent: who’s goddamn white baby is this?
Rhaenyra: what do you mean he’s just light skinned.
Rhaenyra is right tho, they’re light skinned and Alicent is slandering her. Team black forever!!!
YESSSS GOODDDDD
I am EXTREMELY hype about Mutant Mayhaps but also ARE WE JUST GONNA BREEZE PAST SPLINTER'S HAIR? THAT MAN HAS 4C HAIR, HES GOT MAJOR TEXTURE,
if God hates black TMNT fans why the fuck do we keep winning huh
Ughhhhh
Atp imma need Ponk to make a smp and have it just filled with black people because shit is just getting worse. Like imma need Ponk, Berleezy, Cory, Hixen, Jazzyguns, Jojo, black rose, the rest of eezygang, add some upcoming black YouTubers like Forever Nenaa and Ohnoitstusk. Add Fannita and Iyosias to that bitch too. Just black people because it’s always somethinggggggggg with non black content creators.
Like I love the qsmp but tbh this shit is tiring.
Spoilers for house of the dragons episode 10
Hotd episode 10 was leaked and most of us saw what happened to poor Luke. I find it really annoying how people are defending Aemond and this is coming from a person who likes Aemond (I’m team black tho don’t get it twisted) Stop defending this man. He chased after Luke on VHAGAR. Vhagar is in the first generation of Westeros dragons. The biggest Dragon in the show. I’m pretty sure Agon the conqueror used her in his conquest, so she’s a war veteran. Aemond chased Luke, what the fuck did he think was gonna happen? That he could mess with Luke a bit then fly off after? NO! I’m pretty sure dragons can feel their riders intent and Aemond doesn’t like Luke (for obvious reasons). Vhagar felt Aemond hated Luke and killed him.
Do I think it was an accident? OBVIOUSLY! I don’t think Aemond wanted to kill Luke just like how I don’t think he really wants this war. But his actions are a direct responsibility for the war starting. He shouldn’t have used Vhagar like she is some toy, Vhagar is a dragon! It’s like giving a child a gun and being surprised when someone gets killed. And I understand people are saying “he lost control of his dragon!” Okay? So did Luke, his dragon attacked back trying to protect him because his dragon was scared for Luke and his life! It doesn’t make what Aemond did right. Now because of his actions we are going to have to sit and watch the blood and cheese arc.
yk ive been seeing people say like "oh fyodor COULDVE predicted chuuya snapping out of the vampire control, hes smart" and im like okay yeah that makes sense...but also like...i genuinely think fyodor is in over his head atm. like his speech about "utilizing" chuuya seems so.. .gloaty? arrogant? like, chuuya being able to crush the underside of a door and swimming in a water where you cant really swim in is impressive, but this is chuuya. you know, the guy who can stop bullets and launch them back with greater force, the guy who learned how to control his gravity is a precise manner so that his punches hit twice as hard, THE GUY WHO FOUGHT VERLAINE AND THE DRAGON FROM DEAD APPLE? like my guy is made out of titanium, and the thing he pulled in mersault is honest to god just basic stuff for him compared to what he's used to doing. fyodor calling skk's bond shallow and telling dazai, THE DAZAI, that he doesn't know how to use a gravity user is. one loaded statement. that aint it chief, hes going to get his ass bitten sooner or later.
if i was fyodor, i'd be watching my back.
Hey anon!
Yeah, see the thing about Fyodor's argument that Dazai should've known that a gravity manipulator can get out of a flooded room honestly has very little to do with the utilization of Chuuya's ability. It has everything to do with the vampire guard situated in advance to warn them, otherwise it wouldn't have worked. That's... not something Dazai probably (?) knew. Fyodor choosing to make that oversight (?) about their bond is uh... definitely a targeted choice.
Fyodor's specialty is hitting people where it really hurts. Remember that he first went for Kunikida, right? Because he wanted to break his idealistic spirit. And Cannibalism only works based off of the Agency's and Mafia's respective loyalties to their leaders, Fukuzawa and Mori - he was counting on loyalty to the leaders overcoming loyalty to their orders. So, it really seems like Fyodor regards bonds and emotions and loyalty and ideals as, well, weaknesses to exploit.
But as far as amazing feats Chuuya has performed, you're right, this is really not all that notable. Like I was saying, it's more important that there was already someone positioned in advance. It is weirdly gloaty and arrogant of Fyodor, then, to taunt Dazai with the idea that skk's bond is shallow, but I'll be honest, that actually makes me more nervous.
One of the flashbacks in chapter 101 shows the moment Chuuya saved Dazai in Dead Apple. Fyodor was present for those events and likely saw everything. He was the one who had the intent of forming the singularity dragon, something that Shibusawa did not predict would occur. He clearly has knowledge of singularities, perhaps better than most. Chuuya's true form of his ability is a singularity lifeform. Stormbringer confirms there are ways to counter and defeat singularities.
Conclusion: I am deathly terrified that Fyodor has a means of countering Corruption, and is purposely egging Dazai and Chuuya on.
I have no proof but most of the partnerships we built up throughout the series have been destroyed or separated or rendered ineffective by events in this and the last arc; the only one left is the Dazai-Chuuya one. Yeah. Fear.
But see, here's the thing. I'm still counting on it being Sigma or Chuuya to turn events around. Fyodor does seem to underestimate most people who are not on the same intellectual level as himself and Dazai. Sigma seems to be close to a turning point in his character. Chuuya has a history of throwing powerful enemies and allies completely off their game. I think they can do it. Really, I do.
Moreover, Fyodor commenting on how Dazai "isn't fit to use a gravity manipulator" is dead wrong because... Dazai doesn't use Chuuya's ability at all. Chuuya uses Chuuya's ability. Dazai doesn't tell Chuuya exactly what to do and how to do it. He makes a general plan or hints at a general plan and Chuuya adapts and fills in the gaps on his own. That's why they work! I will continue to shout this as long as I need to!!!
Much as I focus on Chuuya though, I do think Fyodor successfully pissed Dazai off, and I suspect... that's not going to turn out to be a good thing for him. This is Dazai's expression (or rather, lack of) the panel after Fyodor tells him he's "unfit to use gravity manipulation":
His face is completely shadowed.
...haha. Yikes.
Anyways, I rambled a bit here but I hope this was a satisfying response anon! There's really a lot of ways this could go so it's fun to theorize.
I would like to warn all hideduo fans bc Guaxinim is going to Purgatory. Who is he? One of the guys that was in prison when Pac and Mike met Cellbit. Fit already talked about him after the Brazilian Meet-up, calling him The Racoon, the english translation of his name if it's too hard to say it on portuguese.
Let me tell you: the guy is an attacker. He's a sweetheart. But he already said that Pac escaped his first once, he's not gonna escape a second time.
Fit is gonna have to fight all Pac's ex-boyfriends a la Scott Pilgrim style before getting a date with him. Because JV is also there.

WILLIAMMMMMM YESSSS GODDDDDD
Oathbound chapter 5 spoilers
NATASHA!?!?? SELWYNS MOMMAAAAA!?!?!?
do you think tracy deonn will include a love scene between bree and sel in the next book? i'm not saying an explicit one, but a steamy, kind of fade to black kind of love scene?
i mean she's given us a lot of implications in both LB and BM:
during the dance scene Bree imagines Sel's fingers leaving marks on other places of her skin
she was drooling at his half-dressed form, in his room, alone
the WHOLE BATHROOM SCENE IN BM
HE LITERALLY CALLED HER DEVOURABLE!
He PUSHED HER UP AGAINST A TREE DURING THEIR 1ST KISS AND IF HE HADN"T PULLED AWAY WOULD THEY HAVE GONE ALL THE WAY (Bree didn't want them to stop -> and plenty of fic writers wrote smut for that kiss scene)
so yeah like i said, if tracy did decide to give us a bree/sel love scene i dont think it would be anything explicit given that the series is for ages 16+ (but then again sjm whole acotar series is basically smut so idk), but she would probably have to give us a a yr time jumo so she can be of age since she turned 17 in BM
anyway what do y'all think?
"Ramon, kill this mf"
Listen I was feeling pretty neutral towards Foolish up until Fit's little interrogation earlier today. "Well let's see if they've still got it in em." That's INSANE right like I'm not the only one who's jaw hit the floor when that was his response??
Foolish can only claim "just a silly little guy status" for so long. At some point he wanders into malicious neutrality and willful ignorance with the amount he doesn't care about the consequences of his actions and their effects on other islanders. Fit literally looked Foolish in the eyes and told him EXACTLY why Pac and Mike being arrested was such a bad thing and he still. didn't seem to care.
Hazel is at camp half blood one summer for a slightly more extended stay than usual. Frank had been extra busy with praetor duties ever since Reyna left to join the Hunters. Hazel had been getting a little bored and it would be nice to see the Greek side of the 7 again.
While she’s staying, the hunters happen to come through. Hazel just wanted to catch up with Reyna but she ends up getting along with most of the hunters really well. She spends a decent amount of time with them while they’re at camp.
Nico seems to get fidgety and agitated the moment the hunters arrive at camp half blood. He speaks with Reyna briefly, but the hunters keep to themselves mostly, especially regarding male campers. But he seems even more apprehensive when he notices Hazel spending time with them. Hazel isn’t sure why until she walks into their cabin one night.
It’s completely dark but she can see Nico is awake, sitting upright on his bed but facing the corner. “Nico?” She questions softly. She runs her hand over the wall and eventually finds a light switch. Nico seems to cringe at the light and rests his head into the corner wall. As Hazel walks over Nico seems to draw more into himself. “Nico?” She repeats, this time placing her hand on his shoulder. Nico turns a bit but doesn’t face her. His head is still down and his hair covers more of his face. Hazel noticed now that his breathing is heavy and uneven. “Are you going with them” he asks in a low even whisper. The one Hazel knows he uses when he’s holding back. “I know you said you and Frank don’t get much time together anymore. You’ve been spending a lot of time with the Hunters.” Hazel was a little taken back for a moment. “I mean, I guess I have been but..” she trailed off for a moment, looking for the right words to explain but she didn’t get the chance, Nico cracked. Suddenly he choked out a sob. His hair fell back and Hazel could see for the first time that he’d been crying. “Please don’t go with them” he pleaded “I can’t- I just-“ his words caught in his throat. They had fought monsters and titans. She’s heard him talk about Tartarus and the bronze jar. But here, in their cabin, He looked more scared and desperate that she’d ever seen him. “I can’t- I can’t loose you to them” he managed, even though his sobs were becoming stronger and more frequent. “Hey, hey” Hazel shushed him and took both his hands “I’m not joining the hunters. I got along with some of the girls but that’s all, I’m not leaving camp Jupiter, I’m not leaving Frank and I’m not leaving you, Nico.” His hands were still shaking as she held them. He made a noise somewhere between a laugh and a sob. “Promise?” Hazel made an X motion over her heart. “Promise.”
Nico pulled Hazel into him and held her tightly. Hazel was a little surprised, but she’d gotten to know this soft side of her brother. “Besides” she said “You still have to be the flower boy at my wedding, right?”
