#Frank Hebert

[disbear]

truly God bless Denis Villeneuve for coming along and rubbing his dirty little liberal leftie hands all over Frank Hebert's legacy. Outstanding.

Diuna Część Druga

Diuna okazała się doskonałym filmem, który naprawdę wart jest uwagi każdego, bez względu na to czy science fiction lubi czy nie. Tym bardziej, że tego ostatniego jest tam naprawdę niewiele i stanowi bardziej otoczkę, dla znacznie poważniejszych tematów. Continue reading Diuna Część Druga

[cairavende]

Worm Arc 16 first part thoughts (through defeating Dragon and Defiant interlude) cause it seemed likely there is going to be something major happening in the rest of the arc and I might as well split it here:

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!

MY BABIES ARE FIGHTING!!!!!

I might not have made the best choice in adopting both Taylor and Dragon

Ok so it's not technically my babies fighting. It's Taylor fighting simple AI Dragon created. But close enough.

Drone robot fucked up a perfectly good barbecue. That's just criminal.

I love that the robot sent after Bitch was basically designed to get fucked up over and over. Work with what you have.

Also Bitch was so willing to listen to Skitter! Not just listen but "come up with a plan like you usually do, we’ll make it happen"! She fucking trusts her so much! GAAAAAAAYYYY!

You put Skitter in charge and she is just instantly "Ok we're going to attack the Wards, the Protectorate, the PRT, and some of Dragon's robots. All at the same time. Cause I always gotta go BIGGER!"

I will give her this though - solo teleporting into the middle of the Protectorate and Wards (except for Clockblocker) and having Trickster swap her around while she just FUCKED SHIT UP? That was badass.

And throwing herself out the fucking window? TWICE? I'm very glad Trickster was on point there cause I would have fucking murdered him if he dropped my daughter.

Piggot trying to be all high and mighty and superior. Fuck off lady. You just a cop. You're like, the worst cop. I already called you out for having a full blown villain internal monologue in your first interlude. Some of the PRT might be trying to do right. Maybe. But you are just evil.

I will give Piggot one thing. She is good at what she does. It's just that what she does is not "leading the Brockton Bay PRT and Wards to better take care of the people of the city", but instead "be a terrible and manipulative person who would absolutely set of a nuke if she thought it would kill enough capes".

Also Trickster don't be an asshole. Being disgusted when Piggot admits she's fat and doesn't sound ashamed about it. Fuck off with that. She's a terrible person, there are so many better things to attack than her appearance.

Like the fact that she upset Tattletale! She made Tattletale sad! FUCK PIGGOT I HATE HER FOR THAT ALONE NOW!

Sticking a bunch of glass in some doors and riding around town on them oh my god. These are like, the scariest super villains in town. And they are door surfing. I love it.

Azazel is fucking fancy! I'm sad it got melted down in the end.

Dragon just needed a guy badly cosplaying as a DS9 starship for a few minutes and then she builds infinitely better shit than he ever could. Cause she is awesome.

Ok so I know it was technically being run by an AI that Dragon built but I'm counting it as Dragon. For one reason.

Skitter asking Azazel stupid questions until it broke was just a little sister annoying their older sister with really stupid questions! She starts off with some somewhat reasonable ones and just gets wild with it. It was perfect. That is the type of fighting I can tolerate from my daughters.

I'm a little worried about Imp clearly crushing on Regent. He hasn't had the best moral character in the past.

Wasn't expecting them to just *have* the city after beating Dragon. Definitely wasn't expecting that to happen mid arc.

“She’s out of it. Tattletale broke Skitter when she said we won” - GAY. Look sure there's lots of reasons Skitter would be distracted after hearing that the city was theirs and they had won. But Tattletale said it and there's something about a girl you like telling you "we won" that can just stop brain from working. Besides I wasn't getting enough Chatterbug content this arc so I'll find it wherever I need it.

So coming into this arc I had been making lots of jokes about Monarch referencing Skitter vs Dragon (both were controlling lots of minions, want to control the city, they're siblings cause I adopted both of them so they fight for the crown, etc) but Dragon is out of the city for now. So I really should have been focusing on Coil vs Skitter. Which is what I expect the rest of the arc to be.

It'll be fine.

I'm sure there won't be any issues at city hall with her dad. Nope.

PRT squad interlude (Piggot interlude round 2) thoughts:

Nilbog is terrifying but god his power is wild.

I had Left 4 Dead in my head the entire time. First thing they killed was a boomer. There was a spitter later as well. And they got the swarm once they shot the flare up for the evac.

PRT is endlessly badly managed. Given the unknowns they could have been more careful and used a better strategy. If they have the resources to wall off the town they have the resources to have done things better.

There is no way Thomas Calvert isn't Coil (more specifically becomes Coil). There is NO way. It has to be him. I don't technically have any proof but I know. It's him. (The way he is described, the way he talks, just everything about him. I could write up an entire post just on why I'm 100% positive he is Coil.)

I already knew Piggot was a horrible person to be running the Brockton Bay PRT and the Wards so this interlude didn't really give new information there. But it does just lock that down on an extra level.

Frank Miller's Armsmaster interlude thoughts:

I'm very sad I had to have this interlude from his perspective instead of Dragon's perspective. But I'll live.

Sucks to be this small town.

PRT failure again. It was made clear that the police of this town in no way expected the SH9. But the PRT knew when SH9 left BB and had a loose idea of their potential travel speed. And they knew SH9's M.O. in this situation of staying to back roads and hitting small towns. So every police department in every small town within a certain distance of BB should have known to be on alert. Like ya they aren't going to be able to stop the Nine, but they might be able to reduce losses a little. PRT is just bad at it's job. (Almost like Alexandria doesn't have the right priorities.)

I KNEW DRAGON WAS A TRUE TINKER! I HAD ALREADY MADE IT MY HEADCANON THAT SHE TRIGGERED WHEN LEVIATHAN ATTACKED NEWFOUNDLAND AND I'M SO HAPPY IT'S REAL!

Plugging my ears when I Was Insecure So I Made My Stick Even Longer Man talks about playing "ten by ten" with my robot daughter. Look she can do what she wants, no shame, but I do not want to hear about it from him if I can avoid it.

Of course Dragon knows about Cauldron. I should have expected that she did. My daughter is brilliant (and also maybe doesn't have a concept of privacy so gets all the information she can without explicitly doing something illegal and goes has a little bit of a "Big Sister is watching you" vibe).

A única permanência era o fluir. A mudança era tudo que importava.

Frank Hebert.

[blacksunrequiem]

I am slowly digesting the audiobook version of Dune 1 by Frank Hebert and it is truly amazing, both the narration and the writing. Shame on me, for eluding the book for so long. (´°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥ω°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥｀)

This very last paragraph of Chapter 3 makes me feel a rare humane and soft side of the Reverend Mother and gives a subtle hint of the true mother of Lady Jessica. I am aware that the identity of Lady Jessica’s mother has been debated following the alleged “notes” from Frank Hebert but this paragraph could be supporting evidence.

The RM may have had a tough time with the Gom Jabbar trial with Paul, knowing all too well the path lies ahead for the Atreides. For her blood daughter and grandson. Still, as the RM said earlier in this same chapter:

“Jessica, girl, I wish I could stand in your place and take your sufferings. But each of us must make her own path.” “I know.” “You’re as dear to me as any of my own daughters, but I cannot let that interfere with duty.”

Duty. What a heavy word. The four-letter word that seems to drive all of the characters crazy in the spiral of control and vengeance （−＿−；）

[foreverdolly]

I am so into your latest fic, savage bonds, you’re delivering pure gold. Thank you for taking the time to write it so well, I love reading it.

you guys deserve all the best, smuttiest fics! i’m so glad that i can deliver that in any capacity. you’re my angels. thank you for this sweet compliment, my friend!

Daemon AU headcanons

(Uni has been kicking my ass, hopefully I’ll be back to posting and answering asks semi regularly, either way this is what it says on the tin. My headcanons about characters from different media and what their daemons would be)

Percy Jackson: His daemon is andromeda, she settles as a snowy albatross on his 16th birthday. The events of Tartarus and specifically meeting misery traumatically resettles her and she becomes a black mamba. The two of them end up going to therapy to deal with that after the events of Blood of Olympus. Andromeda is wise and somewhat detached, her moods are generally the opposite of whatever Percy is feeling at the moment, the two sorta synched up after resettling and neither of them are happy about it, they really valued each other’s differences.

Annabeth: Her daemon is a termite queen named Stella, they settled very early, probably only a few weeks after they ran away for the first time. I just really like the idea of subverting expectations(most people would probably give her an owl or snake daemon, while also still have a connection to architecture). Stella is brash, excitable, and oddly enough impatient. Annabeth keeps her in a small glass container that she has on her necklace.

Taylor Hebert: Her daemon is Amun, as a kid he generally took the form of owls, hence Taylor’s nickname, but started taking smaller forms until the locker in which he settled as a golden scarab. After the events of gold morning and the two of them blending together with QA he finally settled in the form he should have taken, a pharaoh eagle owl, albeit one whose wing feathers look more like those Horus is depicted with than his own species. That sort of distortion is common among daemons of people who’ve gone mad or had extremely bad mental health issues.

Hawkeye pierce(what can I say I’m a sucker for older shows): His daemon is a Russian blue cat named Elliona. She’s flighty, irritable but always down for a prank and is more than willing to harass frank burns at any given moment. She’s not especially helpful during surgery though. As the war drags on she starts going gray and chewing parts of her hair off in stress, mimicking Hawkeyes decline in mental health.

I might do a part to to this if people are interested and I actually have free time soon.

ANOTHER AU!? I know what you're saying... Gwen, you're nuts. But not only are you absolutely right, I think this one might be my most ambitious one yet. As a young nerd, there were two groups. The Marvel fans and the DC fans. And while the rivalry certainly has calmed down a bit, I was almost always torn. So, earlier in the week, I decided to do the one thing that every fanfic writer has tried at least once.

A Marvel/DC crossover.

But unlike the typical realm merger, to put it in Mortal Kombat terms, this is a universe where both properties coexist. For example, picture a group of people walking to a Big Belly Burger while listening to Just the Facts with J. Jonah Jameson. That's just a fraction. I have an ENTIRE starting cast as well.
