honestly kudos to Elementary for gender swapping John Watson in what we all thought was an attempt to make johnlock palatable to the masses and then proceeding to not only make them entirely platonic but also become the ONLY modern adaptation where i actually feel like them being platonic makes complete sense
#they are lifelong partners in a completely platonic sense and i love it#and i don't even ship either of them with anyone else#its just the one time where it makes sense#every other sherlock/john adaptation has them eye fucking every other scene#not here!!!!#they're both fully capable of existing without each other but fucking guess what#they don't want to#and that makes them better#sometimes i forget how much i love elementary#cbs elementary

hypothetical scenario for you all: the real king arthur returns. you meet him and you welcome him into your home. what is the first thing you do with him? keep in mind, this is a man from the 500s (he died in 542), and you are from the 21st century (2024).
#most chaotic answer gets a follow and reblog from me#me personally?#i would force him to watch bbc merlin and get him to read merthur fanfics#i'm so sorry for this... however#i'm just a girl#bbc merlin#merlin#bbc#bbcm#bbc's merlin#merlin bbc#king arthur#arthur pendragon#arthuriana#summoning all the arthuriana fans#regardless of what adaptation you are a fan because of#update 02/08: this has now been closed

Was looking at refs and since Viktor has two different leg braces I was wondering, do we think he wears them simultaneously?? The refs don't perfectly line up perspective-wise so it's hard to tell but parts of the one he wears during the Hexcore scenes look like they could maybe line up with the brace that he wears over his clothes, but also some parts really don't and look like they'd be super uncomfy. Also HOW does he take these on and off. Experts weigh in
#viktor#arcane#ig my assumption would be that he wears both simultaneously cause in the scene where he injects the shimmer#it seems implied that he just threw off his clothes and kept experimenting#so one might assume he was already wearing the smaller one underneath#tho it is a funny image to think of him just being like 'one sec i gotta go all the way home and grab my other brace to do this'#he can take off the back brace too cause hes not wearing it in the scene where he's in the hospital bed and you can see his shoulder#where the strap would be#but that one seems to make even less sense functionality wise#everything looks like its screwed together#or screwed INTO him#but only the top bolts on his spine are i think#in the close ups of his back brace model it looks like theres cushioning underneath the parts of it that cover the rest of his spine#so he can take it off. but HOW#what parts of it unscrew/detatch to pull open and off#does it not do that at all and he just has to shimmy it off his shoulder and all the way down his legs to get it off like a romper#the shape language of the designs are cool but like. tell me how it wooorrkkksss#forgive me if im just dumb and dont know at all how braces work and theres a very simple practical explanation for all this#any king who wants to infodump about mobility aids at me....the floor is yours#something to be said i suppose about the fact that zaunites have crazy prosthetics with wild augmentations that work flawlessly#and piltover's like. idk heres some fucking uncomfortable ass metal. salo gets wheelchair in non ada compliant place#they havent ever needed to adapt to accommodate disabilities etc etc#or maybe artists were just like 'heres a design' and everybody clapped and didnt give it a second thought#and then they just turned off the visibility on the mesh when they didnt need it knowing thered not be a scene where its taken off#dont even wanna THINK about what that rig would look like#like 40 different controllers#soft body and rigid hard surfaces needing to move together....#a cold chill just shot up my spine#<- guy who is only an animator and doesnt know how to rig#forgive the magic wand tool with zero cleanup. i am lazy

yellowfang, i wish you were here. my sister is dying.
ID in alt and under cut
ID: digital painting of Cinderpelt and Brightpaw from Warriors. They are two cats curled around each other. Brightpaw, a ginger-and-white cat, is badly injured with cobwebs as bandages around her face and other injuries. She is unconscious and lying on her side in a moss nest. Cinderpelt, a gray cat, is curled around her with her tail over Brightpaw's back, looking at her with concern. They are in a shaded den surrounded by autumnal ferns, with a pool of water in the corner, and a strip of bright sunlight illuminating their faces. end ID.
#i was thinking about how. brightpaws injury is like the first really difficult patient cinderpelt has on her own after yellowfang dies#and its her sister#but also i went back to read dangerous path and they seem to have. forgot. that they are sisters#like cinderpelt is pretty calm about the whole thing...#seems like a huge missed opportunity for drama#graphic novel adaptation please hear me.#warriors#warrior cats#cinderpelt#brightheart#art#2024#wc

the complete tonal shift between scar and gem's videos is absolutely killing me. an apocalyptic horror thriller flick about a killer immortal snail that keeps you constantly on the edge of your seat vs a coming of age slice of life film about a girl and her snail overcoming their differences and learning to get along 🩷 heartwarming ��
#once again the Family (gemjoel) are proving to be the best at adapting to the wildcards#possibly the best first two videos to watch (girl who has not watched any others)#wild life spoilers#wlsmp spoilers#geminitay#gtwscar#goodtimeswithscar#trafficblr#life series spoilers#wild life smp#smallishbeans#wild life

I’m going a little wild over the fact that Percy started feeling the effects of the chimera’s poison two minutes before he collapsed. I thought this part of the episode was weird when I first saw it because the camera focuses on him when it seemingly should be focusing on Annabeth, but then, I realized Percy’s odd behavior while he’s in focus.
He also turns abruptly, and a little late, to Annabeth, as if he just remembered to listen to her, as if he’d been distracted by something.
Then, this boy starts cracking jokes to cheer her up instead of saying, “Hey, something’s wrong; I could literally be dying.” And you can see on his face a few seconds before he collapses that the poison’s starting to really get to him, and still, he doesn’t attempt to get her attention and ask for help.
Then, when they’re at the fountain, he tells her and Grover that he’s feeling better even though he obviously isn’t, because he’s hoping he’s physically strong enough to pretend. (He falls on his ass.)
100% Percy just didn’t want to worry them and thought there was no way to find a cure in time anyway. I’M SCREAMINGG
#queued#walker scobell the actor you are#this episode STILL has me in a chokehold; I don’t know how to think about anything else#it’s just SO accurate to Percy’s character it was actually fucking mean of the writers to do that#percy jackson and the olympians#pjo#pjo tv show#pjo tv spoilers#percy jackson disney+#percy jackson#percabeth#percy jackon and the olympians#pjo adaptation#pjo ep 4#pjo episode 4

So, in the ER, we all need to work together as a single unified entity. And if two people on my team can’t work together, it kind of throws the rhythm of the place off.

'can't reach' because he is literally unreachable in quadratum. until riku

Maybe I’m just too sensitive to people using Palestinian culture for their own means (or just straight up stealing it) but I do get kinda annoyed when I see artists doing “biblically accurate” depictions of figures from Christianity and clearly using modern Palestinian clothing for it and not mentioning it anywhere. For example a thobe malak isn’t “bible clothing” and not mentioning your references anywhere contributes to the erasure of Palestinian culture. One of the aims of Zionist propaganda is the complete removal of Palestinians from both Palestine and our own cultural and historical narrative. Like sure man, you can use Palestinian clothing for your artwork, but at least say what you are referencing. Stop cutting Palestinians out of the picture because you don’t want to add another sentence to the description
#shoutout Palestinian Christian artists. they do it better than any artist on this app#also: Palestinian clothing as we understand it now is not a 1:1 with the clothing being worn at the time sure it’s definitely similar#but I see many people fall into this trap of cultural stasis about palestine and there has never ever been anything static about the levant#Palestinian culture just as all cultures around the world move like living organisms that grow adapt and change

Maomao's attitude towards Jinshi in the light novel is so much funnier than the anime made it out to be like as soon as he's anywhere within a 5 mile radius from her she's immediately like "Oh the nymph is back... look at that shameless eunuch... tempting everyone like that... such a waste of a pretty face... what a weirdo... he should cover his face it'll cause a war..." and she's like this for nearly an entire page every time he appears
#like the anime did a great job with the adaptation from what i've seen#(i just finished vol 1 so i can't really tell)#but i think the pretty pictures distracted me from how unhinged her thoughts are 💀#and that man has NO CLUE#the apothecary diaries#lonely thoughts

The reason Mr Darcy is an iconic literary character whose appeal has endured for more than two centuries is not because he's somehow simultaneously both a brooding, Byronic romantic hero and a poor socially awkward shy boy who's too nervous to talk to his crush.
The reason Mr Darcy has enduring appeal is because he transforms from a rich, conceited and utterly unpleasant snob into the best version of himself after a thorough rebuke from the heroine. Instead of resenting Elizabeth when she tells him how much she dislikes him, he realises that she was correct, that he cannot stand the person he has become either. Darcy listens, learns and grows as a person following her reproach of him. For all this, he expects absolutely nothing in return for it from her. Not her love, or her approval, or her thanks. Nothing.
Mr Darcy's character arc is a beautiful example of redemption; of a man turning into the best version of himself he possibly can be out of love not just for the heroine but for his fellow human beings... because being a better person is the right thing to do.
#pride and prejudice#jane austen#mr darcy#fitzwilliam darcy#classic lit#classic literature#very important to grasp this#there is no adaptation that even comes CLOSE to book!darcy... no adequate substitute#seeing him change from a horrible catty snob into a man that has been thoroughly humbled and is painfully aware of his flaws?#it's EVERYTHING. i do love The Character#darcy brainrot#its back baby (not that it went anywhere)
