🖤 Lightsaber Colonoscopy: Sith Edition
Tumblr media
💬
I cracked a joke.
He calmly said, “Last guy who did that got a lightsaber colonoscopy.”
Chewed his toast. Looked me dead in the soul.
I sipped my tea like a hostage.
This is why we need a galactic CPS.

The urge to hit one of these.

I know that Master Chief isn't sitting on a throne but I don't want to use the image from the show because helmets are cool and characters who never show their faces are one of my favorite types of characters.

Castles Crumbling (Taylor's Version) (From The Vault) from Speak Now (Taylor's Version) is about Anakin Skywalker...

I have a hot thoschei take: I don’t think most of doctor who tumblr is ready to confront the idea that Missy allowing the Doctor to “fix” her was almost more a form of self-harm for her than anything else. Which makes the confrontation between her and the Master even more upsetting to me than if it was a simple ‘Missy good, old Master bad and sabotages her goodness.’
It’s more like looking on your future self and seeing her restrain herself further and further in ways you’d rather die than do, in ways that are slowly erasing what makes you/her yourself/herself. and when you realize that she will happily push you into this fate, too, (and has the audacity to preach about it), how else can you react but cut her loose.
And it also makes Missy and Twelve more interesting to me, because you can’t really argue the Doctor doesn’t know that he’s contributing to this. He locked her in a box. He knows her far too well to really believe she’d want to live so long in confinement, but he does it anyway. I don’t even think it’s that divorced from love or a need for them to come to an understanding; the Doctor just wants it to be completely on his terms and for the first time ever, that control is entirely possible and he doesn’t even have to feel guilty about it because she’s letting him.
Anon, I'm kissing your brain. And wish I could transplant it into Moffat's head.
I suppose my own brain is a bit too of a "they are characters in a text, serving a purpose to the point made by the author, not self-aware people making choices" bitch to really view it this way. But I absolutely agree this whole situation was much more effed up than fandom gives it credit for. I mean, the basic message of the vault arc is "here's the fool-proof way to develop empathy: a human lifetime of solitary confinment! Let's just ditch all those resocialisation programs in prisons and put all violent criminals in solitary boxes with only psychologists visting them! :DDDD".
Yeah, ok, that last point was a bit over the top in social engineering area even as far as fan bashing is concerned. And, tbh, I think a positive side of the vault arc is the not-sure-if-intended idea that it in fact wasn't decades of solitary confinment with Twelve coming to banter through a locked door only actual interaction with Bill that had Missy introspect, but wtv, it all just needed to go tragic in the end. I think the really unawarely messed up part here is this underlying insistence on. well, basically writing the Master as Darth Vader. There's still good in you, I can feel it!, as in just go back to being a child that I will be idealising in the penultimate episode, which frankly sounds to me the extact same as GO2 Aziraphale asking Crowley to just go back to being angels only even nicer :) (sth sth angelhood as a metaphor of pre-selfaware childhood when you can't even tell yourself apart from other people and especially God-the-Parent). Basically, the big idea being the Master's villainy isn't a result of conscious choices of a hundreds year old eldritch horror only not hearing the music whatever that means.
Of course, it was backwards engineered, in a "ah, but what if there really, really, reeeaaaallly wasn't any other way for the Master to survive than as the Doctor's prisoner?" way, which could work considering how survival focussed the character is (like, surely that wouldn't be worse than becoming a cat? or a 90s effects goo snake? or a man eating emo electroskeleton? or a tooth?)... but then we have a "yeah, but there's like an evil past that does value their independence (and evilhood) over survival, ain't that tragic?" ending.
Basically, I think the problem is not so much Missy accepting being the Doctor's prisoner, as not trying to escape even freaking once? Like, if we started off with her being dishonest about the whole teach me to be good :((( and then easing into living like this, this might have been an interesting idea? But yeah, as we are, you're right, it just. Comes off as trying to amputate a limb that got caught in a mousetrap rather than snares...

a list of people omega should meet in the rebellion except each one gets less feasible and more unhinged
rex, gregor, and wolffe (technically a reunion but it still counts)
the ghost crew + kallus
mon mothma
all the main characters of the original trilogy (specifically han, leia, and luke)
boba fett (but only if she attacks him on sight)
cassian andor
a coincidental reunion with at least one of the other vault kids (my main speculation would be jax)

Old Godzilla was hopping around Tokyo City like a big playground When suddenly Batman burst from the shade And hit Godzilla with a Batgrenade Godzilla got pissed and began to attack But didn't expect to be blocked by Shaq Who proceeded to open up a can of Shaq-Fu When Aaron Carter came out of the blue
And he started beating up Shaquille O'Neal Then they both got flattened by the Batmobile But before it could make it back to the Batcave Abraham Lincoln popped out of his grave And took an AK-47 out from under his hat And blew Batman away with a rat-a-tat-tat But he ran out of bullets and he ran away Because Optimus Prime came to save the day
This is the ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny Good guys, bad guys, and explosions as far as the eye can see And only one will survive, I wonder who it will be This is the ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny
Godzilla took a bite out of Optimus Prime Like Scruff McGruff took a bite out of crime And then Shaq came back covered in a tire track But Jackie Chan jumped out and landed on his back And Batman was injured, and trying to get steady When Abraham Lincoln came back with a machete But suddenly something caught his leg and he tripped Indiana Jones took him out with his whip
Then he saw Godzilla sneaking up from behind And he reached for his gun which he just couldn't find 'Cause Batman stole it and he shot and he missed And Jackie Chan deflected it with his fist Then he jumped in the air and did a somersault While Abraham Lincoln tried to pole vault Onto Optimus Prime, but they collided in the air Then they both got hit by a Care Bear stare
This is the ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny Good guys, bad guys, and explosions as far as the eye can see And only one will survive, I wonder who it will be This is the ultimate showdown
Angels sang out an immaculate chorus Down from the heavens descended Chuck Norris Who delivered a kick which could shatter bones Into the crotch of Indiana Jones Who fell over on the ground, writhing in pain As Batman changed back into Bruce Wayne But Chuck saw through his clever disguise And he crushed Batman's head in between his thighs
Then Gandalf the Grey and Gandalf the White And Monty Python and the Holy Grail's black knight And Benito Mussolini and the Blue Meanie And Cowboy Curtis and Jambi the Genie Robocop, The Terminator, Captain Kirk, and Darth Vader Lo-pan, Superman, every single Power Ranger Bill S. Preston and Theodore Logan Spock, The Rock, Doc Ock, and Hulk Hogan All came out of nowhere lightning fast And they kicked Chuck Norris in his cowboy ass It was the bloodiest battle that the world ever saw With civilians looking on in total awe
The fight raged on for a century Many lives were claimed, but eventually The champion stood, the rest saw their better Mr. Rogers in a bloodstained sweater
This is the ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny Good guys, bad guys, and explosions as far as the eye can see And only one will survive, I wonder who it will be This is the ultimate showdown (The ultimate showdown) This is the ultimate showdown (The ultimate showdown) This is the ultimate showdown Of ultimate destiny

Not One of The Girls: Wine, Dine...Mine?
“Welcome to Dominus, Padme.” Dominus was cathedral-like in its grandeur. Black marble floors, high vaulted ceilings that disappeared into shadow, gold-rimmed light fixtures suspended like halos above each table. The air was warm, perfumed with oud, honey and roasted spice. Velvel draped the walls. Waitstaff glided more than walked, not a tray in sight—only their sharp eyes, attuned to the mood of every breath. There were no other patrons. The tables were empty.   “Are they not open yet?” I asked, blinking up at him. “Are we… too early?” The way Vader turned to look at me made me instantly regret asking. He didn’t laugh—not outright—but something in his eyes flickered with amusement, a kind of indulgent disbelief. Like I’d said something both adorable and so far from the reality he lived in that it almost made him soft. He tilted his head slightly, and then—with a single finger beneath my chin—he lifted my face a bit more to meet his. “No,” he murmured, lips barely curved in what could only be described as the ghost of a smile. “I rented out the whole venue.” I blinked. “You… what?” My voice cracked mid-word. “I bought the night,” he said simply. “So it’s just you and me.” Just you and me
Chapter 12 is posted!! Happy reading, Lovelies!!

DBD Killer Concept: Darth Vader
Tumblr media
Heard rumors that Disney wanted Darth Vader in dbd.. so… I’m doin this. (Don’t know if it’s true, but I thought it’ll be interesting to try)
——
Killer Name: The Sith Lord
Map: Jedi Temple (during order 66) or The Death Star
Weapon: Red Lightsaber (Duh)
L. Skins: Anakin Skywalker and/or emperor sheev Palpatine.
Movement Speed: 4.4m (110%)
Terror Radius: 40 Meters
Height: Tall
Power: The Force Unleashed
Harnessing the power of the Dark Side, Vader can manipulate survivors with the Force, striking fear into their hearts and bending them to his will. (Activating it works like vecna’s power)
Ability 1: Force Choke
Hold the Power button to target a survivor within 16 meters.
After a short delay, the survivor is lifted into the air, unable to move for 2.5 seconds before being slammed to the ground, inflicting Deep Wound.
Survivors near a Force Choke target (within 14m) suffer from Hindered (-6% movement speed) for 4 seconds.
Cooldown: 12 seconds.
Ability 2: Force Dash
Vader empowers himself for 5 seconds, allowing him to move at 6.8 m/s (173% same as vecna’s flight)
While active, vader will destroy any pallets and walls in his path.
If he hits a survivor during this, they will suffer from hemorrhage and loose a health state.
Survivors will become oblivious once vader activates this ability, unless he’s already in chase.
Cooldown 20 seconds
Ability 3: Force Thrust
Vader will throw his lightsaber and use the force to direct it.
It’ll move at 145% movement and if a survivor is impaled by the saber, vader can see their aura and will pull them closer to him for 4 seconds.
Cooldown 10 seconds
Ability 4: Vaders Rage
Vader raises both hands, using the Force to explode his surroundings, affecting all Survivors within 24 meters.
Survivors near dropped pallets or windows are pushed backward (2 meters) and become Hindered (-5% speed) for 6 seconds.
If a Survivor is within 14m of you, they are dragged toward Vader.
All generators within range spark, regressing by 3% for 20 seconds
Power stops after 6 seconds, unless it’s canceled early.
Cooldown 1 minute and 20 seconds
Perks: Vader has 3 teachable perks.
1. Fear the dark
You cannot escape your fate. Only choose how you run from it
When a generator is completed, all survivors suffer from blindness and oblivious status effect for 12/14/16 seconds.
“The Force is strong with you. But you are no Jedi” — Darth Vader
2. The Dark Side
Hope is an illusion. Fear is reality
After hooking a survivor, the aura of the farthest survivor is reveled to you for 8/9/10 seconds, while all other survivors are exposed for 6/7/8 seconds.
“The Dark Side Of The Force Is A Pathway To Many Abilities Some Consider To Be… Unnatural” — Sheev Palpatine
3. Unrelenting Wrath
Your defeat is imminent. Striking him only quickens your doom
When vader is stunned or blinded, he gains haste for 4/4.5/5 seconds. Survivor who stunned him become exposed and hindered (-4% movement speed) for 6 seconds.
Additionally, the survivor is unable to fast vault for 2 seconds and this perk can stack twice.
30 second cooldown
“YOU WILL NOT TAKE HER FROM ME!” — Anakin Skywalker
Mori Animation
Vader lifts a survivor in the air and impales them, then snaps their neck with the force and lifts them up, allowing the saber to cut the survivor in half life butter before throwing them onto the ground and retrieving his saber.
Possible survivors: Luke/Leia Skywalker. Obi-Wan Kenobi. Ahsoka Tano, A Youngling— (kidding kidding)

Breaking fictional canon isn't inherently bad actually
Gonna write something out that's been on my mind ever since I watched a let's play of Fallout New California. For those that don't know about it, it's a prequel mod for New Vegas. It's mostly pretty good, starts off great, some of the companion characters are uhhh... let's just say they have a faint stink of "my precious OC" if that makes sense. The story itself is for the most part interesting tho near the end it goes into some Mary Sue crossfic bullshit that might turn some people off and turned me off at first. But after watching that playthrough, there was one small part that made me reconsider my opinion of the ending, as well as what canon means for a piece of fiction.
=SPOILERS FOR FALLOUT: NEW CALIFORNIA AND FALLOUT IN GENERAL=
So the story's big reveal at the end is that the area you play in is what will become the Divide in New Vegas and you are the Courier. And the story is about a top secret government experiment using some pre-war symbiotic organism discovered in the Marianas Trench (i think?) that makes you basically immortal. You're immune to disease, radiation, don't age, can only be killed by taking a nuke to the face, that sort of shit. And you're the child of a super mutant who somehow figured out a way to not be sterile anymore. Oh, and you're also genetically a clone of the Vault Dweller from Fallout 1.
Now I know what you might be thinking: this sounds so fucking dumb, it breaks canon in half, all in an effort to canonically explain why the game's protagonist can do the ridiculous shit they do, like surviving a headshot at point blank, not needing food, water or sleep, getting stronger ridiculously fast (i.e. leveling up) and tanking damage that would drop a normal person if not outright vaporise them. And overall it turns both your character, the Courier and the Vault Dweller from opportune shmucks whose accomplishments were a mix of skill, perseverance and luck, into deity-like figures whose accomplishments were genetically predestined or whatever.
And yes, all this is true.
BUT!
Hear me out: in the mod when you are faced with that revelation as the character, there's a Wild Wasteland dialogue option which turns into a reference of the Vader/Luke confrontation from Empire Strikes Back where the antagonist that tells you all this breaks the 4th wall and goes "Damn your canon" and it's kinda cringy but also it made me laugh. It's honestly kind of funny. And it was the devs basically laying out their mission statement "Fuck canon, rule of cool, canon isn't a divine gospel to be followed". And I like that. I'm a long-time Fallout fan and the series as a whole has some great writing and worldbuilding but it has a lot of dumb shit in it as well. Dumb shit that was put in because the devs thought it'd be funny. No, it doesn't make sense that you find the TARDIS randomly in the desert or come across a weirdo in a robe guarding a bridge and asking you to solve 3 riddles to proceed or a group of BoS knights who are LARPing as medieval knights from Camelot (both being Monty Python and the Holy Grail references) or the cast of the original SW trilogy chilling around a campfire or a fourth wall breaking cafe where characters from Fallout 1 are hanging out and talking like actors discussing their roles off set. But it's the exact kind of dumb shit as the revelation in New California.
There's more tho. If it was just funny, sure, it made me laugh but it would still be bad writing. A decent joke at the expense of the writing wouldn't negate that. I'm someone who hates Fallout 3's story and worldbuilding for shoehorning in super mutants, the Enclave and the Brotherhood of Steel just because they're "iconic" to the Fallout setting and barely giving them the justification to be there. Super mutants?
"Oh, there was a vault experimenting with FEV."
On the other side of the country. Meaning that the entire plot and worldbuilding of Fallout 1 went from something unique with long-lasting consequences for the entire Wasteland to a cheap threat you can find anywhere from Alaska to Florida.
Why are all the mutants stupid brutish savage cannibals that scream at you and keep human remains in literal gore bags?
"Uhhh... there's one super mutant who's smart, friendly and will join you as a companion."
Why's the Enclave here? They were destroyed in Fallout 2. They were literally nuked out of existence. What few of them remained off the oil rig would not have had the resources or manpower to A) mount an expedition across the continent and B) present as big of a fighting force and threat as they do.
"*cricket noises*"
Why are the BoS here? They were isolationist pseudoreligious weirdos who were almost wiped out by the Enclave. How the fuck did they get here and why are they the default good guys now?
"*vaguely gestures at internal schism*"
Okay to be fair, there is a tiny bit more justification for how and why the BoS are there and the way they are.
Why are there fucking deathclaws in Washington DC?
"*radio silence*"
You get the picture, you know the song and dance. Hbomberguy made all these criticisms and more years ago.
So why do I shit on these retcons for feeling cheap and cynical on top of ruining established canon but the bullshit in New California doesn't feel as bad?
Well, I have a lot of love for Fallout but I've also embraced the reality that Bethesda doesn't give a shit about the lore or art of the series, or the labor of its original creators, and will shoehorn in whatever they need in order to churn out a marketable inoffensive product. I have no faith that they can make anything as even remotely good as New Vegas or as stupidly sincere and sincerely stupid as The Frontier or, to a much lesser extent, New California. I don't need Fallout to be gravely serious or follow strict canon and relative realism (although that would be nice), what I want most is to experience something that makes me feel, something that was made by people who wanted to make it, who had genuine love and passion for what they were making, and the source material they were drawing from. Does it matter if it's fanfiction? Not really. Fallout London is technically fanfiction and it's one of the best Fallout games I've played. It's also the queerest Fallout game I've ever played and as a filthy queer, that matters a lot to me. (You can join a faction of punk anarchists who are actual political anarchists and not just the pop-culture bastardisation of what anarchism is. Play it, it's great). All this to say that merely breaking the canon of a piece of fiction doesn't have to be inherently bad. It matters who does the retcon, how and why. Even moreso if the creators have the balls to say "we know it breaks canon, we don't care, we just want to do it".
(Also should go without saying that retcons made out of bigotry are pathetic and "creators" who do that should be sealed in a vault with a panther)

WOAHH THIS NEW EPISODE
Oh my god first reaction that's some of the best acting and most original trilogy feeling editing we've seen from Disney's Star Wars EASILY. It also totally subverted my expectations for Captain Rennod's character and original plan and it was beautiful.
Spoilers here on
I thought that the cheesy Star Wars screen wipe after one of the scariest non-Vader scenes in Star Wars was a CLASSIC and that Jude Law's performance when threatening the children's parents was phenomenal. Speaking of his performance I almost lost it at his acting when he first saw the vault it was truly amazing. And oh the cliffhanger was so good too. Furthermore the kids acted well in the scene with the holographic parents and I almost cried. It was simply a good episode and it went by far too fast I just cannot wait another week to see the next.
