I can't stop thinking about how Kory looks exactly like the goddess X'hal. How they look identical while unleashing their power and how meaningful that is. How Kory is the image of the goddess her people worship 🥹

Die Kaiserin | 2.05 – “Der Wald in uns”

[bitter69uk]

“This is a woman who is fine with transactional sex even if she rolls her eyes at some of the men after her, and this is partly because Lady Lou (West’s character in She Done Him Wrong (1933)) loves sex so much that even bad sex with a seemingly unattractive man excites her. It is this above all that makes West still seem as dangerous as she ever was, and as threatening to conventional morals … Some of her older screen men are physically repulsive, yet she seems to respond to their sleaziness just as enthusiastically as she responds to the pretty boy looks of Cary Grant and Gilbert Roland … West is a born outlaw, a queen of the underworld who knows that two and two are four but five will get you 10 if you know how to work it.” / From the essay “Mae West: Pleasure Woman” by Dan Callahan in Bright Lights Film Journal, 2022 / Remembering cinema’s incomparable and risqué High Empress of Sex Mae West (17 August 1893 - 22 November 1980) on the anniversary of her death. As film historian Ken Wlaschin concludes, “She could be considered the Lenny Bruce of the 30s, daring to talk about the unmentionable.” Pictured: portrait of West in 1935.

first post, not in character

so I don't really know much about roleplay, I'm just trying to have fun!

this character is Yzma after the events of the emperor's new groove and the emperor's new school. She is no longer an advisor, principal, or Kronk's assistant. She has fled the scene and is hiding out in the mountains plotting her next become empress scheme!

Her current brilliant idea is to disguise herself as Yasmine so she can live undercover and get closer to the throne.

But she is also just trying to enjoy life, make friends, and live out her dreams and life goals.

She is kind of lonely without Kronk around, or Chester whomst he took custody of after Kuzco Academy tore the secret lab down due to health hazards and it being illegally there.

So she is eager to meet new people and reminisce about the old ones in her life. But she is still pursuing her mission, to become empress Yzma once and for all! 💜😈👑

So I know we collectively hate time reset/dimension wipe theories about S5, but.....maybe it does need to happen?

Assuming the last couple seasons of ST weren't some elaborate manifestation by Mike to deal with the trauma of losing Will, there are some problems that seem like they can't be fixed without some kind of a reset.

El. Just El in general. Owens was able to give her a fresh start, a new name and a chance at being "normal", However, too many people know about her telekinetic abilities and the ability to open and close gates to the Upside Down. I think she would be in danger of being kidnapped and studied/used as a weapon forever. She can't just kill off/destroy the entire U.S. government (if only), so her file will probably be available for years and even if not, enough people know about her existence that bad actors could target her.

Now that the UD is merging with the RU, will it be contained to Hawkins? Will it spread throughout the country? The world? Even if it is all a hive mind, if they killed Vecna and somehow closed all the gates (it exhausts El to even close one) , would those spores or whatever still be floating around and infecting things in the RU? How could they ever get rid of all of it or ensure that it was all contained in the UD?

As long as both the UD and El exist, even if Vecna is defeated, scientists/governments will always track her because trhey will want to know more about/study/find lucrative applications for the UD. They would still want to use El or use her to find their own way to open gates.

If all this is true and Will/El/the Party need to destroy the UD to make sure no one ever crosses over again, is that really fair? Even if Vecna harnessed the dark particles and created dangerous monsters out for blood, it is hinted that the UD is not inherently malicious. Sure, the Party want to kill Vecna, but if he's gone and the creatures are just minding their own business, would they be fine with destroying it?

And even if they wanted to, could they? How? If it turns out we're right about Will having powers, how would he use them to destroy the Upside Down? I highly doubt his powers would be like El's or involve gates. If he had some kind of creation powers, would he just recreate the UD with glowy light particles and make it beautiful? But even if he did this, wouldn't scientists still want to find a way inside to study it with El"s gate-opening powers?

On the other hand if he (or someone else) has some kind of time powers,, when would they reset it back to? Or what would they go back in time to change? Is there something out of space and time that doesn't belong? (Somehow I am reminded of El saying she doesn't belong anywhere).

If Will or someone else wiped out the dimension that contains the UD (or banished it to another dimension), MKUltra would still have been doing their telekinetic children experiments, right? And if they went back in time, how far back would they have had to go? Back before Henry was taken to Brenner? Would El have been created at all if her mother wasn't part of the MKultra experiments?

Bonus thoughts about a reset: we know how much the Duffers love The Neverending Story. Spoilers for Neverending Story after the cut:

At the end of the Neverending Story movie, Fantasia (the world of fantasies and dreams a bowlcut kid has been reading about in his book) is destroyed by the manifestation of emptiness that is the Nothing. Bastian ({the bowlcut kid) realizes he has the power to make Fantasia (the world of his fantasies) anything he dreams.

After he takes ownership of his role as master of this reality (by giving rhe Childlike Empress a new name 🤔), the entire world of Fantasia is wiped out and it's just Bastian and the Empress together in a black void. All that remains is one grain of sand (a glowing particle, if you will).

The Empress hands the particle to Bastian and tells him his wishes will recreate Fantasia. He recreates it the way he imagined it, and notably brings back all the people who died as a result of the Nothing.

Even more tellingly, he exclaims:

"It's like the Nothing never was!!"

Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion, C.C.'s Empress —Aesthetic

C.C.'s Reign

Due to C.C.'s close involvement in the rebellion as Lelouch's partner and the Black Knights' second in command, she's considered the acting Empress Consort of the Britannian Empire. This title was never made public. C.C. is also never seen dressed in royal attire, nor is she married to Lelouch, but the Emperor showers her in luxury. He even has a little chair set beside his throne for C.C. in the throne room.

I love it when I say "Harumi was never evil but her actions were" then get people accusing me of saying Harumi's actions are excusable because it reminds me of this twitter meme

"I don't think Harumi is evil but I'm also not gonna defend her actions because her actions are absolutely evil" "So you think Harumi's actions are excusable?" no i think she's a deeply traumatized person who lashed out violently because her adopted parents neglected her and she basically blamed lloyd for having ever been neglected in the first place which made her lash out violently even more

Sissi's in action! | TGR.com Play Play CoCo

Totally awesome! She's not working at Lyoko, nor the Team Bouquetz or the Kadic Sirenz 6, The Young Empress works solo, and she's a Vtuber and a Superspy girl who is truly revealing herself as a super styling popular diva school bully spoiled brat with her girlies.

She's a super star, and she's always super smart.

After Sasha had returned her own belongings, she turned around & took one last look at the big red sofa, which had taken the previous spot of the big flip-out bed shaped in one of the mounted O's of Bouquetz took deep, trembling breaths, struggling to keep the burning tears from falling down her face.

Since it's her mistake.
