god can you imagine for a second how awful it would be to be dating vash and meeting nai for the first time?
like, you’ve been hanging out w vash for a while and he’s always talking about his cute little brother
vash says hes a little shy, maybe takes a while to warm up to people, but really sweet. he tells you nai is smart and funny, and he has no idea why nai is single? he’s a catch!
with such glowing reviews, you obviously say yes when vash invites you over for dinner
and when you get there, you’re in for a fuckin shock bc vash?? are you telling me your “sweet little baby bro” is this fuckin 6'3 gymshark model giving me the death stare from your living room?
vash is like “hi nai!! you’re home from class early!! i bought ice cream!!” and you’re like “hey man, can you maybe put the hunting knife down?”
you tell nico about it when you lock yourself in the bathroom and he texts you back like “why do you think i have his number saved as "homicidal twunk” in my contacts?“
me: “yeah I dated a guy in high school who came out as gay. it was before i knew i was a boy so needless to say it didn’t work out”
coworker: “damn dude was preordering”
other things this coworker (who is a cis guy) has done/said:
—got confused about why I’d never been a boy scout because he forgot i was trans
—told me he was gonna get top surgery scar tattoos to match me after i get mine
—laughs at all my trans jokes, even if they’re supremely unfunny
—calls me big dog (and him little dog) even though he is about as tall as two of me
— “I can’t believe she would say that transphobic thing to you. In June? Pride month?”
Once I said “My gender is whatever’s funniest at the time” and my coworker stops dead in his tracks, turns slowly and says “So are your pronouns honk/honk?” killing me instantly
I have so many feelings about Hobie’s back patch you know the spider with the letters
And for the longest time before I saw the movie I was sitting there going “SFMN? SMFN??” Like I got SM is spider man and just could not for the life of me figure out the FN
Until I saw the movie and suddenly it clicked
Friendly Neighborhood Spider Man
Like be still my HEART you’re telling me that Hobie Brown Mr spider punk still came up with (in his universe, HIS canon) that moniker and liked it enough to put it huge on his back so everyone can see
There’s just something so wholesome about seeing a punk with the title ‘friendly’ attached to them (which they are, like they are the MOST friendly) because you know most people would see him and be like Oo scary punk spider but he’s like no I am in fact your friendly neighborhood spider man read my vest
I just have a lot of feelings about this and I love Hobie and Spider-Man and Spiderverse and uugghhh
seeing a lot of people posting about “why is everyone acting so crazy lately what’s going on” girl it’s COVID. we did the research and we know for a fact that COVID gives you brain damage, microstrokes, and other serious cognitive pathology. it makes people stupid, impulsive, angry and crazy. it messes with your ability to process and store information. this is on top of the intense background stress that will make you act out even if you don’t have brain damage. traffic accidents are up. road rage incidents are up. check my COVID tag I’ve reblogged and posted a lot of information on this. every single person who got COVID of any severity is at risk of having brain damage and cognitive problems of unknown severity, for an unpredictable length of time. it’s not bullshit it’s just the data as it has been measured
Do y'all think when Wolfwood saw Vash get shot in episode 10, he thought about Livio?
Imaging losing your brother in such an heartbreaking way to protect a guy who let himself get shot in front of you.
Ok no but it really was a beautiful and heart wrenching scene. I loved how Orange handled Vash getting shot and Roberto revealing his fatal injury. We didn’t see or hear them get hurt, instead we saw Wolfwood and Meryl’s reaction mirroring the way the audience would.
In Vash’s scene, we saw him giving up through the scope; the echoing gunshot was followed by Wolfwood’s gasp, then Vash’s blood spattered on his cheek. This whole sequence was just so, so good. Vash didn’t even make a sound from getting shot. Wolfwood watched it happen and his horror and concern were so genuine and you know it’s real right there.
My favorite part of Roberto’s death scene was that his life ended with the sound of the derringer hitting the floor. Btw I’m pretty sure Meryl removed the nail after Roberto passed and that was so fucking metal in a human, caring way. I can’t find he screenshot right now but when Wolfwood found Roberto in the elevator, the nail was already pulled out on the ground next to him.
Anyway sorry for the rambling, I just loved how Orange did this and I’ll never shut up about it.
And yes I think it did remind Wolfwood of Livio. Vash was practically suicidal; both of them resolved to letting themselves get hurt.
Vash settles down with you after the events of Trigun Maximum in a quaint little town. You two have a lot of children (adopted, biological, or both) and whenever the kids are running excitedly through the town’s streets, the townspeople call it ‘The stampede’.
Vash: apologizes to every rock he accidentally kicks. Will lean down and go “sorry little guy” and pat it on the head. If there’s enough time he’ll put it back where it was so it’s not scared
Wolfwood: will offer to pray for after every mild inconvenience. If you stub your toe he’ll bow his head and go “let us pray” and won’t stop until you slap him. He thinks it’s so funny.
Meryl: goes “Oh? But can you back that up with a source?” Every time you tell her you love her. And the only source she’ll accept is a kiss. Sometimes she’ll say that your evidence is faulty which means she wants another kiss
Knives: tells you to die affectionately. You tell him you love him? He’ll just go “okay…die”
