Rosycoconuts - Roses And Coconuts

Just found something, that could be either good or bad, depends I guess...

... Idk how to feel about this anymore.

But rejoice Pinocchio theory haters! He won't be magically turned into something he is not.

He just has to break the control over him or get the object with the Amok into his hands.

... I can breathe a little better now. This is a good abuse parallel.

what would have happened if they didn’t nerf tf outta sasuke

i’m not over this. i don’t think i’ll ever be over this

This is so cool and really interesting!

The English name “Catwalker” is nice and it works, but now I prefer/like the more clever original French name “Velvet Paws” due to what @little-mari-on-a-roof said above. I understand why the name would not translate the best for those who are unfamiliar with the saying.

I’m still going to refer to Adrien’s short lived persona as “Cat Walker” because that is how he is more popularly known in the English MLB fandom and the fist name I associate when I think about him.

I want to join the French “Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir” fandom too but I don’t understand French well and Google Translate can only get me so far.

Today the french dub for Kuro Neko came out and it turns out that catwalker's original name is Patte de velours, lit. "velvet paw" and I really love it so here's a little explanation of the name :))

In french, the saying "patte de velours" means to retract one's claws (when talking about a cat) or to hide one's true intentions beneath a friendly and kind exterior. Which is pretty much what Adrien does in the episode. His claws are physically less sharp, he refrains himself and he acts all perfect to get ladybug to like the new him.

And just like catwalker, it also hints (but in a way more subtle way) to Adrien's involvement in the fashion industry because of the word "velours"!

Extremely frustrating as Palestinians watching the world stand in solidarity with The Ukraine and suddenly knowing how to use the word occupation.

dropping this here

and this one too. they let refugees fleeing a different war freeze to death in the middle of winter while the world turned a blind eye at the frozen corpses of children who were denied asylum and died because of it. this was happening as of two months ago as well, it’s not old news

i stand with ukraine, obviously.

i also stand with those who are calling out the blatant hypocrisy in how others in the same situation were treated, as well as those who are rightfully upset in the world’s support of and reaction to of one group of people but not others who have faced the same and much worse.

and before anyone jumps on this with ‘omg not appropriate right now’ or ‘stop comparing the two’, it’s entirely possible to stand with ukraine and the russians who are protesting the russian govt, while at the same time acknowledging that the world’s eurocentric response to this situation is extremely different to the response it gives other countries in places the western world declares are “backward”, and “uncivilized”
