#It sure is complicated lol

[skyloftian-nutcase]

Oof, I’m writing this and I’m realizing how complicated the whole situation is. The calamity for Ammon was a year ago and they won. Link is his son. The calamity was ten years ago for Tillieth and they lost, and Link is also her son.

Ammon is definitely not Abel and Tillieth is def not Sarah

I have… no idea how they’ll even figure this whole thing out 😭😭

Yeah, it’s very complicated for sure! They gotta get through layers of trust building first. Like I feel like Ammon would realize they’re on the plateau and recognize the destruction and be trying to figure out why this woman is the only one here and why the guardians haven’t been cleaned up and why everything is so decayed. And Til is trying to figure out who the heck this guy is, how he got on the plateau, what he was doing in her bed, where Abel is, and what state the shrine is in.

Til first needs to know that Ammon isn’t a threat, and Ammon probably has to start there before he can get answers. But the good thing is Til is more trusting than Abel, so she might honestly believe him with as bewildered and unsettled as he’s likely to be.

The Black Rose has Already Infiltrated Piltover and Zaun!

You know how there's speculation that this shadowy figure has to do with LeBlanc because LeBlanc and members of her Black Rose group do the eye/eye makeup glow thing?

Well the conspiracy only goes deeper! Last year, nearly to the day, an exclusive splash art for LeBlanc's Rose Quartz Prestigious skin was released on CN servers.

Do you recognize that familiar face in the background?

I do!

It's Local Cusine (LC)! You could argue that it's just an easter egg. But why is Local Cuisine in Noxus? LC's presumably a sex worker from Zaun and here he is hob knobbing in Noxus, in a splash for LeBlanc of all people.

How do we know this a Black Rose gathering? Well, we can see that the window in LeBlanc's splash art matches the same design used in the homes of other members of the Black Rose in Riot media.

We also know that many Black Rose members wear masks upon first appearance so that their identity will be anonymous to other members. If you look closely, you can even see that the shadowy figure from the trailer is wearing a mask around their eyes as well.

And can you guess which character we met wearing a mask in their very first appearance?

It's Local Cusinie!

But what does any of this mean? Well, LC could have been sent as a spy by LeBlanc herself to test the Medardas' loyalty to the Black Rose. If Swain is truly set to take power by season 2, then many powerful families affiliated with the Black Rose WILL be purged.

Maybe LeBlanc's sent LC to have them killed herself. The Medardas may be loose ends to her, because Ambessa is only loyal to preserving her family and may in fact expose the conspiracy further to Swain to her and Mel if she could.

Or maybe LC has his own agenda. Maybe LC is related to the Ionian princess Ambessa killed. You don't have to be from Noxus to be a part of the Black Rose, the organization predates Noxus itself. And frankly, Black Rose members and their related assets do their own thing pretty often, their web of plans can even bite LeBlanc in the butt.

"Sansa bullied Arya? Oh so you think she's worse than Tywin Lannister, Gregor Clegane and Ramsay Bolton??" is such a hyperbolic, insincere and ultimately non-existent argument. Literally name one person who says this shit with any sort of sincerity, if at all lol

This is up there with "Talking about Arya's importance to the North means you think Jeyne Poole's life doesn't matter!!!" in terms of disningenous talking points.

It's only ever used to shut down any attempts at considering Arya's feelings and well-being when discussing the girls' relationship.

and no offense, but why are 🫵 YOU🫵 equating the acknowledgement of a fictional child's flaws with calling her a war criminal? why are you treating it like that?? 👀👀👀

I mean, this fandom regularly says Arya lacks morality for surviving war zones with violence. They consider her a walking tragedy whose story is about losing her humanity and becoming the ultimate killing machine. Everyday Dany gets called a N@zi Barbie for not abolishing slavery perfectly. But Sansa gets clocked as a mean girl bully in the first book and y'all fall apart at the seams at that?? C'mon now

I read your disagreement on this popular sentiment that "The Jedi Were Flawed" and I couldn't agree more with your disagreement. The Jedi are not the problem in the galaxy. It's everybody else: the Sith for plotting a revenge conspiracy for 1,000 years, the Republic for being plagued with corruption in which the Sith had a hand in (but not all Republic senators were corrupt), the Mandalorians for being warmongering a-holes, the Hutts and other crime syndicates who terrorize innocent people, the Separatists for making problems worse by starting a war with the Republic, the Empire for bringing tyranny upon the galaxy, and if you're an EU fan, the Yuuzhan Vong for starting an unprovoked war against the galaxy that causes the deaths of TRILLIONS of people!

That post came about almost as a reaction to pro Jedi people constantly talking about how OF COURSE the Jedi were flawed all the time and how annoying I find it more than anything else lol. It's very annoying to have to keep seeing posts by people who I know do LIKE the Jedi talking about how flawed they are, how they make mistakes, blah blah blah.

I've had people ask me why the sentiment of "the Jedi were flawed" can't co-exist with the sentiment of "the Jedi were RIGHT" or "the Jedi did nothing wrong" and, to me, it's not that they can't coexist in a more general sense, but they don't coexist NARRATIVELY to me. "The Jedi were flawed" is just a bullshit statement because the entire point of the narrative is that the Jedi were RIGHT. So what does it add to that particular theme and storyline to insist that the Jedi were flawed all the time, or that they made mistakes? How does it add to the message about being selfless and compassionate to insist that the characters who are in the story specifically to showcase why it's important to be selfless and compassionate are in fact also flawed and make mistakes?

It ALSO bothers me because the people who most often say it are the ones who mean "the Jedi were flawed" as "the Jedi deserved what they got" or "the Jedi were wrong the whole time" or "the Jedi should've changed their entire culture to accommodate one person" or "it was the Jedi's fault that everything bad in the galaxy happened." So when fans who LIKE the Jedi and don't actually believe any of that continue to insist "OF COURSE I believe the Jedi are flawed" it just smacks of desperation, of trying to appease these other fans who will never change their minds. Why bother trying to insist on a middle ground when what they mean by "the Jedi are flawed" is not the same as what a real Jedi fan means by it? What does it add to try to find a middle ground with someone whose interpretation is so completely the opposite of your own? Why bother?

So yeah. I never say the Jedi were flawed because I don't find it a particularly useful way to analyze the story or the Jedi's position within it. The Jedi were right, the Jedi are always right, and it's not honestly any more complicated than that.

alrighty so managed to do the knock out minthara recruitment but it took me three tries because it's not at all as simple as it sounds. gonna post exactly how i did it because having it not work three times killed me

speak to halsin to get the kill the goblin leaders quest. don't get him to accompany you. id already killed gut by this point so i don't think she makes a difference.

turn on non-lethal damage. attack the guard next to minthara to get the -attitude. knock her out and deal with any other goblins that rush in.

kill ragzlin before a long rest. deal with any goblins that rush in.

long rest in the room you find ragzlin in. use free camera or w/e it's called to check that minthara is up and about in the other room. she should be up and on full health.

fast travel to the emerald grove environs and speak to zevlor, without telling halsin you've killed the leaders. he'll tell you halsins shown up already.

i went straight to the tieflings party in that convo, went to the shadowlands through the underdark, met the harpers, ran to the convo to kill the drider and get the lantern and straight to moonrise to find minthara. she was there when i did all the above steps.

there's probably other ways to do it and I don't know exactly what it was about this one that worked, but I think it's to do with making sure you kill ragzlin after knocking her out but before you long rest, because the time i long rested in between she didn't show up in moonrise.

Idk if anyone has asked this yet but does Ravage Clone eventually consider and/or go through with picking out a new name? I know one of the first thoughts I had was that she would eventually become/change to Howlback or Glit as part of her coming to terms with the (deliciously) tragic identity crisis inherent to the entire situation. TToTT

(based on these posts!)

she does, actually! it takes quite a bit of time for her to get to the point of admitting she wants a new name, but it's something she plays around with once she's bigger and staring to settle into her adult frame. i'm still playing around with what name i'm going to have her take, but atm i've been considering her taking the name nightstalker! her final adult frame ends up looking very similar to this figure of the actual canon nightstalker as well;

i haven't quite settled on if it's what i want to do or not though, and i am open to other suggestions 🤔. but yeah! she eventually does end up taking a new name and changes her frame to look different from the original ravage. i've got another ask in my inbox that i'll be responding to soon that'll expand on this a bit <3

thank you so much for the ask!! always happy to talk about this au <3

Aaaaaaaaaaaaah stop with the “ I’m gonna kill myself” jokes stop ! it’s the whole don’t make self deprecating jokes thing except worse ! just bc you abbreviate it doesn’t make it better it’s hard to respond to what do you want me to say do you want me to call suicide hotline then ?? depression and mental health is hard and coping is hard you make jokes about it but sometimes !! the things you joke about are real and can affect people and I’m tired of it just being thrown around so casually
