On a lukewarm take.

I'll tell you right now, most adult mainstream media is not more "subtle" in is subtext than children's mainstream media.

Why is that? Children's entertainment can't get away with a lot of literal imagery.

Like queer rep, ND rep, and or most political issues.

So it requires the use of symbolism and subtext to get through it to it's audience with enough deniability to not upset the status quo.

Symbolism I've found to be much more powerful in a lot of all ages media than in adult and YA entertainment.

That is to say, all media should be consumed with our own biases in mind.

Instead of saying, X was bad and irredimible, people should be asking themselves, "why does this character make me FEEL this way about them, how much of that is intentional and how much of it is my own interpretation, why Y character forgave them so easily, what reasons do they have".

I consume all sorts of media, and most adult media I enjoy is adult media produced by artists mostly known for children's entertainment, they more often understand nuance and earnestness that a lot of newer adult guested media does not.

Do you think kid shows are black and white? Boy, I have bad news about cop thrillers.

I jest tho it's easier to extrapolate character from simplicity and earnestness than from media that is constantly embarrassed of being "too weird and unserious".

Some people consume only adult media, (not cartoon adult media like, just in general mainstream media) and have the media literacy of a fish.

I do think is important to watch everything you find mildly interesting, wether or not it's withing your preferred générés, demographics, and styles.

But I find it iffy to imply that all ages media is mostly not nuanced, because "they have to appeal to children black and white mentality" when that's just a big misconception.

Any weird vibes check my tags

Dick bored in class thinks loudly: Are there any mind riders here?

Danny thinks back: Yeah, hi.

Dick: *Falling out of his desk with a shriek*

Teacher: Mr. Grayson! If you are going to disrupt this class one more time, I'll have you thrown out!

Dick: Sorry, sorry. *sits in desk mentally shouting* Who are you!? What information have you stolen from my mind!?

Danny: Whoa, calm down there, Robin. You were the one who asked. I thought you already knew about me.

Dick: How could I possibly know about you!?

Danny: You literally lit candles for me yesterday. You said this lovely prayer, too, though I couldn't understand it

Dick: I lit candles for the dead homeless kid i found- oh. You're a ghost.

Danny: In a way.

Dick: Did the light not guide you home? Should I light more candles?

Danny: If you like. What's that about anyway? The candles?

Dick: It's a Romani tradition. Ussually, the candle is light on your death and kept on until the funeral, but I found you too late, so I just made a circle.

Danny: That's so sweet. Thank you for including me in your people's way.

Dick: Of course. Are you haunting me now?

Danny: *Literally sitting behind him in class* One could say that yes.

Dick: Cool. What's your name?

Danny: Call me Phantom.

sometimes when chronically ill/disabled/neurodivergent people say “I can’t do this thing” they really mean “I can technically do this thing I guess, but not without pretty significant repercussions” and I really need more fully-abled people to understand the validity of that

Core Gems

So when a ghost becomes injured, they have a last ditch defense where they retreat into their core. And I mean, injured badly where their body is rip apart to the point they can’t hold a solid form anymore. And they basically go into a hibernation state until they are strong enough to form again.

Ellie, Danny, and Dan are all injured in a final battle against the GIW. The organization was destroyed and the ghosts were safe but the halfas ended up being so injured that they reverted to core form and then went to sleep for a bit. When they woke up, they were still weak but at least recovered enough to gain consciousness. And realize…they are in some kind of auction…in the middle of a heist. It appeared that two furries (one in a bat costume and one in a cat costume) were ducking it out. And they…they were a necklace. All three of them had been turned into a necklace with their cores as gems accompanied by sapphires, pearls, and opals. And frankly gorgeous craftsmanship as the metal was crafted around their cores as if to cradle them and the other gems.

Unfortunately, they were too weak to take a form properly, they could still feel the strain on their bodies. But at least they could still communicate through their auras. Then the cat lady punched a hole in the glass container surrounding them and grabbed their necklace.

However, the bat grabbed the other end and it resulted in a sort of tug-a-war. Meanwhile, Danny, Ellie, and Dan were having a back and form commentary on the situation and what they should do. Completely unheard by the other party.

In the corner of their eye, the three halfas finally noticed a third contender. Some kind of clown who was…hold on…holding a gun?! And it was pointed straight at the two fighting furies who had yet to notice him. The ghosts’ protective instincts went into overdrive and they frantically tried to shout, yell, move. Just do something to warn the two but their cries fell on deaf ears. All they succeeded in doing was faintly glow which immediatly caught the attention of the fighting duo. The two turned to look at the strange necklace but right at that moment, the clown fired and a gunshot rang throughout the auction room. Having no other options, Danny and the others poured every ounce of ectoplasm they had to try and phaseshift, making the two furries intangible as the bullets passed right through them, but in their shock, the two jumped away in opposite directions and accidentally ripped the necklace apart. Gems and pearls went flying and the three cores bounced along the ground.

Luckily, the two finally noticed the clown and went to deal with him and his minions who had appeared. Seemingly putting their fight on hold and forming a temporary truce. The three halfas could only watch as the battle finally wound down, ending with the cops barging into the place and arresting the clown and his grunts, the cat managing to escape with half the scattered gems and pearls from the broken necklace along with a few other jewelry pieces (none of their cores though) and the bat leaving through a skylight.

The auction continued and in the end, despite being broken, their necklace seemed to have caught someone’s interest. A man named Bruce Wayne bought up every piece of the shattered jewelry wear. The auctioneers appeared relived that the item managed to sell in the end and gratefully gave it to him.

Bruce had no idea what happened at the auction, but he could have sworn that some of the gems faintly glowed right before he and Selina were shot. If the necklace was some sort of magical item, then he needed to understand exactly what has been brought to Gotham. It was unfortunate that Selena had taken some parts of the necklace but he utilized his vast wealth to make sure all the other parts ended in his possession. Now he would take them back to the mansion for examination.

amedot but this is after they just had their first kiss or something

somebody run me over with a car bro I can't take them anymore PLEASE MAKE THEM CANON PLEASSSEEEE

Anyways

So like I've always thought about Amedots first kiss as like surprising to both of them

Peridot wants to try out something inspired by Camp Pining hearts (which is kissing) and so she did a bunch of research abt it asking people questions and whatnot, and while hanging out with ame one day she kind of just, out of impulse, kissed her (there was obviously build up but it doesn't rlly matter what build up ok this is all make pretendsies for me)

Amethyst ofc knows what this is and is kind of shocked Peridot is so straight forward (but tbh it's less consciously straight forward and more like I have no idea what I'm doing but I want to try it out and I dont know if what I did is bad from Peridots POV because yk she's new to like everything and kinda oblivious and very inexperienced when it comes to romance, at least in my headcanon she is very inexperienced compared to Amethyst ) and Peridot is kinda shocked she did it?? Like Peridot still doesn't fully have the hang of the subject/topic of kissing or even romantic affection in general but I love the idea that Amethyst helps her (even unknowingly) with her feelings since I headcanon/assume per hasn't had that much or actually never had romance at all because of it being such a taboo on home world. Anyways oh yeah and in my little world Amethyst flirts with Peridot a lot ok bye

From David's appearance at Planet Comicon yesterday. A fan asked him what his favorite TV shows to watch are, and then added, "And not Michael Sheen TV shows." To which David responded with a cute WTF expression and a teasing "He's been on TV?" Bless...

Classic Who — The Keys of Marinus: A Summary

The Doctor lands on a planet with a big ol’ mind-control machine that makes everyone be good instead of bad.

Doctor: “Cool machine! Anyway, let’s bounce.” Mysterious Robe Guy: “Wait—you have to help me find the keys to turn it back on.” Doctor: “That sounds like a you problem.” Robe Guy: “Well I’ve got your time machine now, sooo…”

Smash cut to: everyone being strong-armed into a planet-hopping fetch quest across six wildly inconsistent episodes.

Highlights include:

– an ocean made entirely of acid – a bunch of brains in jars that can mind-control what you see—but only if they sneak into your room at night and tape tiny plastic pyramids to your forehead – a sentient forest that tries to kill everyone – Someone: “We should split up!” Everyone else: “What a brilliant idea, what could possibly go wrong?” Cue absolutely everything going wrong. Instantly. (x3) – Ian gets framed for murder – The Doctor volunteers as his lawyer – The Doctor then proceeds to be so bad at it that Ian is sentenced to death by extreme boredom in a room where the punishment is “stare at this clock until you die”

Eventually: “Hi Robe Guy! We got the keys!” Robe Guy: is now dead Everyone: “Oh no!” Also everyone: accidentally explodes the machine

Doctor: “Well, mind-controlling an entire population is ethically questionable anyway, so… hooray for accidental justice? Byeee!”

Tempered Sword Fi

this is mostly a concept design and testing. I like this one tho

i took a lot of liberties with her design and played with it like a doll to see what comes out, making her cape¿ like if it's sharp at the edges and her legs being like needles, making her look more capable and efficient in combat (she already was. hyrule warriors shown us that. imagine this version.)

im very happy with this. i might keep it as it looks already
