tbh it’s a crime that the go-to D.Va joke is “she’s a video game gremlin” and not “she’s a celebrity diva who’s in love with herself” like, it’s shameful that we’re not seeing at least one blog which puts Rogelio De La Vega quotes under D.Va
like that could be her pre-match pep talk the potential here is UNLIMITED and it doesn’t seem to be a slippery slope into drawing her as an actual infant with diapers and a pacifier
other Rogelio quotes that could be easily adapted to D.Va include but are not limited to:
“I don’t like the term ‘Triple Threat’ because it suggests that I’m limited to only three skills”
“I’m going to tweet my 6.3 million followers–”
“Don’t worry, I’m very easy to dress, everything looks good on me”
“SHE SAID THAT I WAS DRAMATIC?!?!”
“A Hug From [D.Va] is like a rabbit’s foot: lucky, rare, and soft to the touch.”
“I never thought I’d feeling anything but #blessed to be famous, but now I’m feeling #cursed.”
a few people have reblogged this asking “why not both?” and I feel they deserve an answer:
Because “showing D.Va as a narcissist celebrity diva who’s totally in love with herself but also really nice to her fans” is 100% in line with her canon portrayal and makes her a dimensional character, while “showing D.Va as a baby or toddler” is literally just playing off harmful racist stereotypes of East Asian women
Decided to take a leaf out of @dancing-aqua‘s book and make some Mimikyu/Fire Emblem drawings myself! It was fun taking a character that just wants to be loved and due to their insecurities changes aspects of themselves…and then combining him with Mimikyu. (the stick is meant to look like the Fujin Yumi)
I dunno if it’s been conveyed, but Amourshipping is honestly really special to me in a way that’s really similar to how NaruHina is. It’s hard to explain, but it’s really important to me and I hope I’m able to really convey that at some point.
I had a guy and his son come in tonight and they spent over $1000 on everything you can think of.
Err, okay, would any Amourshippers like to explain to me how Ash feels about Serena? Everyone knows Serena has a crush on Ash, but I haven’t seen a single hint where Ash showed some kind of reciprocating feelings yet.
The short answer is “no, Ash doesn’t reciprocate Serena’s feelings yet”. However, since we’re aping Naruto somewhat hardcore with many of the tropes Amourshipping seems to follow, the easiest explanation is that they’re waiting for a Naruto-like revelation where Ash realizes that he’s loved Serena all along and that it just hasn’t realized it until that moment. (or something, I’ve never actually watched THE LAST)
With that in mind, let’s talk about how Ash clearly favors Serena above other girls, in XY (and extrapolated, among all others).
