*complaining for no reason again because i am bored* i need more ppl to know that these. are all the same person these are literally canonically all the exact same individual person im begging u

literally almost all the ganondorfs are the exact same individual and almost all the ganons are the exact same individual, almost all the ganondorfs & ganons are the same exact person just in different forms and circumstances. except for FSA and maybe whatever the fuck is going on with TotK ganondorf but i still think it’s weird that he still has golden eyes & rounded ears when even the gerudo in TotK’s ancient past dont, but anyway ashfjsbfjsn

i may be just incredibly stupid, but i really don’t undestand what the master meant when he said “become death, become me” in the timeless children. i love the idea of the master wanting him and the doctor to be equal in death, but i don’t understand why the doctor would become like the master by destroying gallifrey

isn’t destroying it the moral, selfless choice? i mean, on gallifrey in that moment there are just her, the master and the cybermasters. reducing gallifrey to ash and killing an entire new race is not even close to what the master has done. actually, it would prove once again that the doctor is selfless, willing to sacrifice herself, her oldest friend and her planet for the well being of the universe, because otherwise the cybermasters would convert the entire universe. it would be a relatively good choice, right? as good as it can be in that situation.

i guess that you could say that she doesn’t want to commit genocide by killing the cybermasters but then in the last episode of s13 she didn’t hesitate at all to feed (?) to the flux the entire army of cybermen and daleks, right? she didn’t even think twice (good for her).

or am i just incredibly stupid and was it stated that the not yet converted bodies of the time lords could still regenerate? i just don’t get it, please help me because i really love sacha dhawan and jodie whittaker’s acting choices in that scene but i don’t understand it

I had the craziest dream last night where there was a huge lore drop and the things they revealed were WILD.

In it, the Traveler basically split Leda up into two versions, the one from MotD and the one from Darkest Hour. I don’t remember why but I think it had something to do with her potential as a sorceress. But the problem with splitting someone up (which apparently is just a thing in the version of this game that exists in my dreams, because it wasn’t fully explained but somehow I still understood it?) is that it severely messes with their head, and she was crying and begging for him to undo it (there was dialogue for some reason) because she didn’t think she was strong enough to withstand it. But the Traveler was a dick about it and yelled at her and wanted the versions of her to use their abilities to help him with something, but then Darkest Hour Leda went rogue and turned evil and basically destroyed MotD Leda somehow. I don’t remember if Jack was DH or MotD Leda’s son but I’m pretty sure he was in there somewhere.

As the League fan, what do you think Vermin is? The lore left hints towards both "this is just illusion/insanity" AND "this is some objective filth within the nature of men but not everyone can handle the knowledge so dreadful".... Also, why do you think Valtr stopped seeing Vermin eventually?

That’s a very interesting question! I was initially confused too, as Valtr describes vermin “writhing and squirming” upon killing you if you attack him, despite not being able to see it himself anymore. To me it sounds a lot like by the time the player character meets him, he’s already at a very self-destructive state. I mean, not one moment after meeting him, he’s already very insistent on you joining the League, and lowkey sad when you refuse!

Could this happen because Valtr lost his faith in the League's purpose at that moment? Maybe he’s trying so hard to convince the player that vermin must be crushed because he’s partly trying to convince himself that his mission is still worthy? I mean he sounds very, VERY passionate about crushing vermin. Maybe vermin isn’t real, and an illusion shared by all who partake into the rune, hence why all Confederates in the game eventually go mad. (Henryk and his roar gesture, Yamamura in his cell, Madaras trying to kill you on sight, and Valtr going nuts about seeing vermin when you attack him).

Moreover, it sounds like he does want to be able to see vermin again, and upon attacking you, you’ll hear him shout “when you’re dead, your rank blood will curdle with vermin”. My man really hates not being able to partake in that shared illusion, and according the Impurity rune, maybe there truly is mercy in madness. Considering everyone goes mad at some point in Bloodborne, I think Valtr might find some solace in knowing he’s not the only one going nuts.

I’m not sure why Valtr stopped seeing vermin, nor if it is ever implied how he did lose it, but considering he’s actively looking for a new Master to continue on his mission, I don’t think it was voluntary. Maybe he started to loose a grip on reality, to the point of confusing what was real and what wasn’t, seeing vermin where there were none, or not seeing it at all.

Considering only League Confederates can see vermin (if it’s even real) by imbuing the rune, I asked myself if Valtr lost the ability to see vermin when he lost the ability to imbue the rune, hence why he gives it to you with a happy jolly “yes!”.

It’s also very interesting that vermin are centipede-like creatures. In folklore, centipedes often represent hidden things, and may relate to a secret or repressed desire or trait. They also represent liars in one's life, who're keeping (dangerous) secrets from you.

With that in mind, who knows what Valtr’s disclosing from us. 👀

Blinks rapidly. I need to talk about Ralsei Deltarune right now

First thing, I don’t think he’s evil. I think at worst he’s purposely naive, but most likely? He’s inexperienced. All he knew, for however long it took for Kris and Susie to show up, was an empty city. No other fountains. No other Darkners. Just him, and a prophecy to fulfill.

And isolation made him lonely. So incredibly lonely that he needed the first people he met to like him so that he’d never have to be lonely again. Kris and Susie just happen to be the first people he meets.

Which is why he’s so incredibly caring. How do you make friends? Why, you be nice to them! Ralsei has never had friends before, but if someone did that he’d instantly become friends! And since that’s the only reference he has, that’s what he does. He’s kind to a fault. To the point it comes off as fake.

But he’s not happy all the time. No one can be happy all the time. But being anything but happy would make him a downer! So he’s pushing all to the side for his friends. Every upset, uncomfortable, angry feeling is squashed. Sometimes he slips up, he’s still learning, but mistakes are quickly rehidden behind a caring smile.

To me, Ralsei is a deeply lonely character. He’s trying to form connections the only way he knows how. And in order to form those connections, he hides his true self behind a mask of perpetual happiness. Because that’s what he thinks his friends want.

I gotta get some sleep but Master Mason lore is still fucking me up man. So FINE I guess I’ll talk about him some more.

I get that the last name Mason is derived from “stonemason” and their descendants but. Did you ever think about being named after literally creating? Ever think about shaping something with your calloused hands and having that be your legacy? Ever think about centuries passing and people forgetting your origins and time passes you by?

Random thought that idk if people have already had before but:

So you know how in Ninjago, when an elemental master dies without an heir, their elemental power then transfers to another random person? Do you think there's a specific amount of time the elemental powers need to not have a master before they go to someone else? Or is it ATLA rules where it transfers immediately after the death of the previous master?

I feel like the idea of it transferring instantly is kinda disproven by the fact that Euphrasia gets powers after the merge despite Morro probably having died like 40~ years ago? So the element of wind was kinda floating around for that long? (But tbf I haven’t been able to watch Dragon’s Rising yet so they might’ve explained it and I haven’t seen it yet).

However it would be kinda funny if it did transfer instantly considering how many times the ninja “die” without having any descendants/someone to pass their power on to. Imagine if every time the ninja fakeout die some random person in Ninjago gains elemental power.

Tears of the Kingdom isn’t the first time we’ve heard the phrase The Imprisoning War in Zelda lore

It’s also the term used in the Downfall Timeline as a precursor to LttP when Ganon was unleashed from the Sacred Realm and the King and the Sages rushed to fight the Demon King and re-seal the Sacred Realm, with no mention of a hero

Could TotK Imprisoning War and the LttP Imprisoning War be one and the same, with specific details being lost to time by the beginning of the game?
