Monstrosity trailer analysis part 2! Part 1 <

The environment (+ a theory on what the monsters are)

This is the topic I've been wanting to discuss for the longest time. The environment and the ecosystem in general. To start, it just feels so alive. Everything from the flora to the terrain feels eerie in such a good way that I paused the trailer and clapped. It's gorgeous, and it feels like the place looks back at you when you look at it. The use of empty space and hidden context is also ingenious. You see bridges and landmarks and carvings, and you just know someone or some people were here before Kai. Maybe the human inhabitants of the realm? Or the ones living in the homelands the guardian dragon was talking about? What really happened to them then? The forests are so empty and filled with greenery that it makes it feel untouched. A place where no human should be let alone live in. Poor Kai, I hope he has fun.

Another thing I like is that there are different landforms. From plains to forests to hills to mountains, it's like we were put in Kai's shoes with the sheer scale of it all. Each area has their own specific monster/s to that region, and it makes the idea of the realm being unfamiliar really tangible. It makes you think and theorize what the food chain is or if there even is one. Are some of the inhabitants herbivores? Or are they all carnivores? Maybe omnivores? Are they all organic? Maybe some have different skin? Are there supernatural elements? What if some are capable of speech or sentience? There are just so many things to pick apart and analyze that you can't really help but rewatch the trailer every five minutes while it's on the lowest speed just so that you can catch every detail. Or is that just me. Please dont say it's just me.

One thing that i find kinda funny is that there are also bodies of water. Like, legit large spaces of sea and river. From oceans to lakes to just flooded plateaus (I don't know the term, sorry), there was even a shot where Kai was just in front of a sea full of broken shipwrecks. It makes you think if a water-based realm was merged inside of it or! This is a theory! If the realm of monsters is a parasite realm. A realm that infects others and therefore grows bigger with each new land consumed. A theory I saw on here was that each monster was an elemental master consumed, and that's what the centipede mural is for. What if the rom (realm of monsters) was just a regular realm before its elemental masters got hit with a curse of some sort? Maybe that's why the guardian dragon is pissed. What if the monsters need elemental energy to survive? That's why there are SO many of them that are huge? What if they fed on the guardian dragons? What if that's why they're extinct?

Maybe that's why they're so hostile. They can sense Kai is an elemental master and one of the elements of creation as well. It's why the mech and dragon want to help him. They won't let another master become that.

The merge also caused a giant surge in elemental energy, so another reason why they are so many of them. Maybe they procreated using that energy.

Ooooooo I can't wait for this. I'm definitely checking if I'm right when monstrosity comes out.

The true meaning behind FNAF princess quest

You guys are commenting on the fics you read right? You’re at least leaving kudos on the Astarion smut and the pairs that have less than 20 fics for them too? You’re bookmarking stories you really like that are still being updated and ones that haven’t been touched in over a year right?

You know that even the smallest interactions are like cocaine to fic writers right? You understand how important a string of emoji hearts left behind on a chapter at three am is right?? Right????

You’re treating AO3 like a community and not a content factory….right?

[disgracedaantt]

ok wait. hallucination/dream jackie actually brings up a great point! shauna is possibly the worst communicator out of the yellowjackets! she deceives, she lies, she covers things up and then gets mad when people don't know what she wants. like girl, jackie had NO idea that you didn't want to be called shipman. she didn't know you liked jeff, she didn't know you resented her or how inferior she made you feel because you never fucking told her! the crux of like 99% of jackieshaunas issues stems from the fact that shauna is incapable of communicating issues before they bubble over into fits of rage! which shauna knows! because when she told jackie she was bothered by the dress/randi hookup thing in season 1 jackie immediately dropped it! COMMUNICATE SHAUNA!!! pls for the sake of literally everyone COMMUNICATE!

DO NOT ASK NEIL ABOUT FAN THEORY

Michael babygirl, I apologize now for the close-up screenshots of your mouth I am going to put on the internet. Call Neil if you have issues with it, it's his fault. Brain-rotting brought on by the lovely @melbatron5000!!!

Honey, why are you chewing on a ball bearing? I was going to be lenient and say it's a glint off of some saliva but nah are you sucking on a damn pie weight. I didn't see you take a bite of any dippin dots??? Who let her near my stash of Buckyballs that I've been hiding from the Consumer Product Safety Commission? Just because you are bbgurl doesn't mean you get to eat bbpellets.

monologue

[thepandalion]

ok no I need to talk about this

the reason ralsei is changing is because of susie

the way he said it, darkners that are based on memories of loved ones can "only appear in specific darkness". meaning, originally, ralsei was kris' memory

and, similarly, gerson was presumably Alvin's?

except. gerson came back. it's the third sanctuary. a different dark world. but he's still here. and why?

because SUSIE remembers him. she wrote alvin the letter from him. she fought him and won and came back to look for him. because now he's in her memories, too.

following that logic, of course ralsei is in her memories too. more prominently, too, each time she returns to an adventure. he strays further from the blurry memories kris has, into something that's both theirs and hers

and, while we're at it, maybe ours, too. we shape him with our choices because we're part of this team too

Various gifs of how I think the mercs smile (Defense ver!) ∠( ᐛ 」∠)＿

RED Demo - He's quite cheery! He's always in high spirits (just like the gibs he blows up) and his smile is just as happy. Physical embodiment of this here :D

BLU Demo - Has a bad case of RBF (he is often thinking about the kills he whiffed) but he's a charmerrr <3 his smiles are s-m-o-o-t-h

RED Heavy - Big, BIG smile - he often gives this smile before mowing a person down or giving them a big hug. Hope it's the latter!

BLU Heavy - More quiet and reserved and more likely to frown, but he's always happy to pass a small, quick smile to let you know, you're doing good

RED Engineer - Usually he's milling about with a tune on his lips, but once he sees you, he'll give a sweet, if a bit shy (if a bit embarrassed), smile

BLU Engineer - Big thinker whenever he's not running around moving his buildings. His smile's always a little off-guard but never unwelcoming (unless you're a spy)

Loose theory: Pomni liked urban exploring in abandoned buildings. What if she found her VR headset in a building she broke into? That would imply the office is empty and the company has been shut down. Which would maybe explain why none of the characters have been taken out of the circus- if they're all in an abandoned building.

Danny: Hey, I need you to be my boyfriend for a week.

Jason: What.

Danny: My parents are coming over and I've apparently accidentally talked about a partner more than once and only realized when they said they wanted to meet them.

Jason, currently still solidifying his power as a Crime Lord: Excuse me?

Danny: Let me get this out of the way, I do not consider you at all a person of romantical interest and a friend. But I need you to act as my partner for only a week until my parents go on their merry way over to my sister, okay?

Jason: Is there, quite literally, no one else to ask this?

Danny: You're my only friend who lives in Gotham, plus we share the same apartment.

Jason: That's almost sad.

Danny: You in?

Jason: Sure, why not.

Maddie: Danny, honey.

Danny: Yes mom?

Maddie: I don't mean to.... question, who you choose as your parent but. Well, me and your father was just wandering if he was a... [Maddie gestures with her hand] you know, one of those.

Danny, uncomprehendingly staring at his mother's hand: What.

Maddie: Oh dear, how do I bring this up. You know, one of those.

Danny: Mother I need more context.

Jack: If your boyfriend a crime lord!?

Maddie: Jack!

Jack: What? Beating around the bush wasn't helping!

Danny: Say WHAT?

===

Danny: Hey dude, thanks for helping with this even though you didn't need to!

Jason: No problem, I wasn't doing anything too [Crime Lord activities flash through his mind] important.

Danny: Can you believe my parents thought you were a crime lord though? Weird am I right?

Jason:

Danny: Jason. You are scaring me.

Jason: Haha, yea that's weird isn't it?

Danny: Jason.

Jason: Well, I have to leave now to attend to my totally real and totally not crime related job at the ice cream shop.

Danny: [Squints eyes]

Jason: [Internally sweating bullets]

Danny: Suuuuure, bring me back some ice cream though.

Jason: [Thumbs up and leaves]
