Imagine Anakin absolutely losing his mind as it’s explained to him that his marriage is literally illegal because of article whatever subsection b and it’s because 400 years ago there was an entrapment scheme and that’s why Padme is being sued by the republic

Funniest possible set up for a fix it.

Padme dragged before the courts bc you had to know this was illegal there’s literally no way you didn’t know this was illegal. Naboo under a microscope bc the former queen/current senator married a jedi – and not even a real knight jedi at the time, a baby jedi!! – and is naboo trying to entrap the jedi order??? sources say: MAYBE!

Anakin, losing his mind and opening his mouth to cause more problems, says something – on live broadcast, beamed to every corner of the galaxy –about his good buddy the chancellor knowing and saying it was totally fine🤬🤬🥺🥺🥺.

“Oh, so it’s definitely an attempt by naboo to entrap the jedi order and/or claim ownership of them and/or do any of the other things we have that law to prevent huh” says literally everyone in the galaxy, “chancellor palpatine 💯 wants to Rule The Galaxy Forever and is going to extort the Jedi to do it”

which. yes, but also, no.

something something, investigations into everything naboo has ever touched, something something, hey, chancellor, why the fuck do you have a red lightsaber in your desk actually??

people who compile lore from 18232893 different sources in-game and elsewhere and make it a) easy to read and b) readily available online… thank u i lov u

I’ve never needed anyone to be in a polyamorous relationship as much as Zack/Aerith/Cloud/Tifa

Zack x Aerith? Deserved better. We were robbed from it.

Zack x Cloud? Tragic best friends to lovers. Absolutely. I’m in for the angst.

Cloud x Tifa? Childhood friends to lovers. Slowburn and pinning 💯

Tifa x Aerith? My girls had better chemistry with each other than anyone else in the game. A hundred times yes.

Cloud x Aerith? Cute, wholesome, comfort ship.

Zack x Tifa? OP and kind-hearted hotties bonding over protecting their dumbass bf/gf from getting into trouble and making out while at it. Count me in.

This is so much better than some love triangle bs. In this essay I will

My big dumb Hawke/Varric idea is that Varric felt like he couldn't write himself into Tale of the Champion as a love interest despite it being true and he complained about this so much during cards that one of the others members of the Kirkwall crew finally went "fine just make it me then lol"

And they were kidding except then everybody else spoke up and said it should be them instead, and this culminates in five slightly different editions of the book that are sold in different areas of Thedas. There are ship wars.

Sebastian was kicking his ass at cards one night and Varric retaliated by making him straight in the book

Back on this. Cassandra has read all five versions and probably has a corkboard with red string set up in her room trying to figure out the real version

So I've been playing Final Fantasy VII Remake

And never talked about it cuz I didn't have anything meaningful to say,

BUT

I just have to say that whoever was in charge of creating the bossfight with Rufus Shinra really thought "hm, how can I make these two characters that have never met before fight in the most sexually charged, homoerotic way possible"

There is no other explanation whatsoever for this shit right here

THE TEASING

RUFUS' LINES

THE MOVES

CLOUD'S LIL SMIRK AND SCOFF WHEN RUFUS SAYS HE OWNS HIM

THIS LINE

"Now it's just the two of us"

"Let's make it a night to remember"

Just say you want to rail that twink and move on, Rufus

This is an objectively correct interpretation.

Iroh: so Toph, what are your goals in life?

Toph: I’ve been banned from every major city’s transportation system except Omashu

Toph: I don’t know what their limit is but I will fucking find it

King Boomie, having exactly zero limits:

Unstoppable object meets immovable force

[Toph eventually slips up and is captured by the city guard force. Instead of being imprisoned or exiled, Toph finds herself being given audience with the King of Omashu.]
Bumi: Well, well, well. It seems I have finally met the troublemaker who has been causing such chaos with my rail systems.
Toph:
Bumi: I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with your earthbending abilities. You remind me of myself when I was a lad.
Toph: Get to the point.
Bumi: I see great potential in you, Toph Beifong. I want you inherit my title once I am no longer fit to rule.
Toph: Wait what the fuck

Why wasn’t this Toph’s future instead of becoming a freaking cop. This would have made so much more sense. 

My favorite part of this is “when I am no longer fit to rule” because

1. Implying Bumi was fit to rule at any point

1.1 except maybe in the sense that he was completely shredded

2. That he has no plans to die, (nor would death necessarily make him unfit to rule), but that he apparently intends to like. Tuck his arms and legs into himself and just roll off into the sunset.

3. Given that the Earth Kingdom has an actual ruling family that causes some drama in LoK, Toph continuing to cause monarchy confusion is both 100% in character and fucking hilarious.

Toph takes over as King Bumi the second and everyone is like “no that’s not how inheriting works” and Bumi is like “No no she’s right, I did say “inherit my title!”

When toph is no longer fit to rule, she instills bumi (Aang’s son) as her heir and he is known as bumi 3.

Her first act as ruler is to ban herself from Omashu’s transportation system, thus fulfilling one of her life goals.

But then she ignores her ban and continues to use the transport system forcing her guard to chase her and print wanted posters declaring her a fugitive.

Fortunately the clerks served under King Bumi the First and are well aquatinted with explaining chaos to the confused citizenry of Omashu. Without missing a beat they print the posters in 2 parts.

The first (read this aloud) part is a fairly standard Wanted poster explaining that King Bumi II Toph the Blind Melon Bandit Lord is Banned from the Omashu Transport system for crimes etc….

The second part (do not read this aloud) explains not to be concerned; if you see the King at one of the stations just shout “There she is!” The guards will chase her and you are free to go about your day. The King thanks you for participating in this guard training drill.
