What if Violet didn’t marry Xaden to save Tyrrendor… what if she married Bodhi?!

while in agreement with the (very valid) post going around about ice aesthetic being more than just The Dragon Cops i have to say for me personally i deeply enjoy the problematic aspects of the ice flight from a horror perspective. following a deity who considers himself the sole judge of what is or is not "natural" and obeying his decision without question. taking on this enormous responsibility to guard and protect when nobody wants or has asked you to do so. considering the scorn and thanklessness all part of the job. knowing and seeing evidence that youre in the wrong but still choosing to victimize innocents rather than risk letting the guilty walk free, because you've seen horrors no other flight can imagine and you keep that shit to yourself instead of inflicting it upon the people who hold you in contempt. i love how fucked up it is.

I’ve been having a rough few days, but I’ve been feeling a bit better so I decided to make some lil thingies for some spiraling upwards kitties :3

Is your url supposed to be a PJO reference? Like “my grand plan is that I will be remembered?” Because every time I see you on my dash I start singing the song in my head

Hi!! yes, it 100% is and I would say that I'm surprised you noticed if it wasn't for your url 😂

But I've had this blog since like, forever, and I used to mainly post about musicals before I fell in love with Young Royals but I love this url too much to ever change it

Sometimes I think that if I was a character in adventure time I would be one of the candy citizens due to my name

[lightningmcqueeniloveyou]

Sometimes my day is going fine then I think about the theory for Mater's tall tales series where everything Mater said was real and Lightning didnt remember it because in the first tale, where Mater did the stunt thing by the cliff, Lightning did fall down the cliff and kinda died and Doc had to rebuild him completely so now he has holes in his memories.

i sorta wanted to reply to syncro anon about clemont and his inventions because realistically, it is really interesting!

while yes, his inventions blowing up is mostly used as a gag, it's also kinda funny becuase a lot of things (especially technology wise) tend to malfuction or just kinda "self-destruct", and trying to move that into a visual form is a hard thing to do, so it's done via the explosions. (though HOW he (and the others) survives them is a completely different story.)

technology either can malfuction or "self-destruct" for the smallest of reasons like a code was inputted incorrectly, overheating, excessive use, or going above the limit then what they were designed to do, and so on forth. so realistically, all of this is possible, albiet with less explosions.

ofc we also have to take account just how much time clemont had to create these inventions, has he tested them out? has he polished it? all of those things are pretty important when it comes to creating something completely new. and even if he had; it takes a lot of re-working on the device again and again until its finished.

and like you said op; besides all of those factors, it could also just be from clemont himself, putting on failsafe's, him being an S rank worrier, and of course having his past mistakes tower over him and having him fumble, or, again like you said, being put in a pedestal of perfection (after all he is The inventor lighting up the world.) and with all that pressure he just messes up (Gifted Kid Syndrome, anyone?)

so yeah, lots of different factors. But of course, if we put the knowledge of the other media's pokemon has put out besides the anime, clemont so to speak does, make it big. creating an invention that another region uses; The RotomDex, with clemont being its creator

-⚡ (again sorry for jumping in! clemont's explosions is very interesting to me, and i sorta understand his furstrations/disappointment whenevr it does fail as a person who codes every now and again)

Hmm, you raise some very (very) good points. I've tried to code in the past and it never stuck, but I totally get what you're coming from! It does take a lot from the internal and external part of things, from coding the program, making sure it's compatible with the device, making sure the device has all the working parts it needs, and of course testing it out (because theory rarely plots itself perfectly to reality).

We don't see Clemont actually go through the entire process of building his inventions, but he feels like the type of guy to just rig one out very quickly to me especially as they're on the road (there are some he totally made in a few hours or overnight). He's making them for theoretical scenarios that may come to pass after all, which might also explain how they may not be as refined as, say, the Clembots (where he has a defined reason for their existence and probably put more time and thought into building them) (which may also explain how Clembot mini especially survived! Because it does have a lot of its basis on the OG after all, which he has not only made but fixed up as well). I do agree that the explosions are probably just for dramatic effect though, very sound theory! To be fair, he could have also went to attach some parts wrong just as easily as made a wrong turn in coding, but yeah coding would be harder to depict visually for sure. And also coding is super finicky, from what I recall heh. Considering the environments he's in compared to the much more isolated lab back in Prism Tower, he's bound to make a few mistakes here and there.

Gifted Kid Syndrome is such a Clemont thing though, and his past issues would totally haunt him through the machines themselves. Plus the worry too!! He's the inventor lighting up the world after all! He's gotta be perfect with them! He's always got to be on the move, on the next invention that will change everything, irrevocably, amazingly. Sometimes he's going to burn himself out, or stay up too late or work on too many and get mixed up with the details. And that has just as much consequences as anything, if not worse. And as you've said, frustration is going to be natural for him to feel. And maybe that also fuels some of his mistakes, but it has just as much power as to fuel a bit more introspection as well. The good kind, anyways.

But that's totally not to take away what he's done! Even in the anime proper, in the first few eps he literally makes a Pokemon Translator! Like that is so OP even if it didn't work quite as intended lol. And stuff like helping to make the Power Plant aren't small things either. Even with the fails there are wins with him and in the end, it really is just about a matter of growth and gaining a good eye for details and a steady hand for the rest (and some luck as well).
