I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

@Story: What are you reading?

Anyway, I'm going to watch one more Adventure Time episode and then go to bed.

Oops, I got distracted. What are we talking about now? Music? Okay.

I'm personally like Florence+ The Machine and Imogen Heap a lot. I mostly grew up listening to 80's rock, but I tend to listen to rock that doesn't get much mainstream airplay. There's this great station on Sirus XM that play rock from all decades. It's sweetawesome.

What are you reading?

Slice of Life. Luckily the posts now have direct links to the image in each panel starting with flight camp. Because those were pretty much impossible to read through Tumblr's interface.

@Story that links to the genre itself.

Sorry, I'm too lazy to add genre prefixes. You know what I mean anyway.

Okay, yeah, "What was Missing?" has a metric ton of shiptease between Bubblegum and Marceline. I'm okay with this.

And now I sleep.

The weird part is that that was one of the first episodes I saw. I may not have realized the subtext at the time though.

It's always sort of weird hearing people talk about that episode. I never saw any shipteasing/subtext in it when it premiered, either.

Then again, I don't really see shipteasing in anything...

I wonder about Legend Of Korra. Does it even count as shiptease when it's that blatant?

It isn't really teasing when the characters are outright discussing their relationships.

But yeah, by this point I think the only reason Bubblegum/Marceline isn't canon is because they can't get away with a gay relationship on a cartoon. Although that does make me wonder, that's gotta happen eventually, right? Wonder who will be the first to risk the wrath of the moral guardians.

Oh man, I just learned that Spike's JP voice actress voices Taro Yamada (Chinyuki Taro To Yukaina Nakama Tachi) in the new J-Stars Victory VS game. Ah, what a small world.

Post of the Day #661

your altering cause and effect.

She became popular just by being unique due to a graphical glitch, once the show runners leaned about it they then started adding her into the background on purpose. At this point she pretty much come to be seen as a symbol of the amazing relationship between the bronies and the staff.

Plus she's awesome.
