re uh reblog if you are awesome or severely inlove with a fictional character

the way that this page in particular was adapted just OOZES studio trigger tbh. like I know everyone likes to joke about studio trigger being the horny studio, but the quick jerky animation direction is what truly makes their work recognizable to me. I can practically see Lio Fotia bleeding through the pixels in that 5 frame animation of Falin peeking through her fingers

it is so jarring and weird when a fantasy book is like “ok let’s go around the circle and have each character talk about which lgbt umbrella category they identify with” like ok your fantasy world doesn’t have to be feudal europe but can it not be 2023 twitter please

talking to people while holding a beverage is awesome because you don't have to know what to do with your hands and when you don't know what to do with your face you can just take a sip

I cannot believe there's absolutely no way to watch free shows and movies anymore, there are too many paid streaming platforms and pirating websites have viruses and ads preventing you from watching it uninterrupted((.)) id rather follow the rules and purchase media moving forward because it is too inconvenient. Seriously, free and no ads or viruses with 1080p streaming is DEAD.

Marcille and Falin are the obvious OTP, but I've been thinking about it and I don't think Marcille actually knows how she feels about Falin until after she disappears post-resurrection.

Even in that panel of them in the bath, Marcille is unsure. She pulls away - protesting that Falin should save her mana, but actually looking uncomfortable. Up until this point she's seen Falin as a friend - specifically, a young sister figure. You see it in the way she tutors Falin at the school, or the way she insists on looking after her. It's very much a "protective big sister" vibe.

But after she disappears, Marcille's attitude shifts. She was already willing to break laws for Falin, but now she'll do far worse: she'd deal with the devil itself to bring her back. Her stint as Lord of the Dungeon is all about her feelings for Falin. It's her complete motivation at this point.

And after all is said and done, Marcille's approach to the restored Falin is much more affectionate and direct. Maybe she still doesn't realise it's romantic love - after all, her succubus was a very fictional elf hero stereotype - but it's different than before.

Falin is harder to read, since we don't get to see as much of her, but her affection for Marcille is pretty evident. Also maybe not love just yet, but there's something there.

Anyway, I reckon Falin's leftover dragon bits probably extended her lifespan considerably, so they'll still have each other in many decades' time.

also post-canon Falin deffo has a cock

"Marcille likes Animal Crossing" "Marcille likes Dwarf Fortress"

We have a canonical answer to what kind of entertainment Marcille likes and it's sprawling romance epics that span multiple human generations. Marcille plays JRPGs that are more cutscene than gameplay to the exclusion of all other games. Marcille is still trying to convince people that FF14 1.0 wasn't all that bad.

Also Dark Choco showed up

Not in the main story but in a memory thing you can unlock via the Treasure Chests

This seems to have been his battle with Pitaya (which Pitaya also mentions in a conversation with Purple Yam)

Also also, as you can see, in this fight Pitaya offers to free Dark Choco from his sword and give him a new one, but he declines. Like buddy I get you’re guilt ridden and partially possessed/being influenced, but you had an opportunity right there (he just like me fr)

But now I want someone to make an AU where Dark Choco takes Pitaya up on their offer, gets freed of his sword, and now gets the Lava Sword. Put it in either Ovenbreak or Kingdom, since that’s the one with his kingdom still there
