#NO MORE GUIDANCE

[swan2swan]

Thinking about how much Nenya helped in the last episode, and how much power the rings have displayed.

This is only the beginning of the arc with the rings: Galadriel is going to learn new skills and abilities, work so many wonders, and push the ring to its potential. Elrond and/or Gil-Galad and Cirdan will do the same. They're going to become so powerful.

And then, at the end of Season 4, something is going to happen, and the elves are going to realize just how screwed they are for the whole of Season 5.

Dc x Dp Prompt #6

“I’m a twin”, Damian said one night. He could feel the narrowed eyes of his family drilling holes on his back in disbelief. Not that he could blame them. Damian had never so much as implied being raised with a companion, much less a sibling.

“I had a brother”. Damian paused to recollect himself. He had not said his brother’s name out loud in over 8 years.

“His name was… Danyal”. Damian hated the way his voice wavered, but he could not help it. Danyal was everything to him, his other half. Their heart beat as one and when one heart stopped beating, the other one died with it. At least until his family put his heart on metaphorical life support without ever realizing.

“Where is he now?” His father asked, voice filled with knowing grief and a hint of betrayal. It had in fact been 6 years since Damian first showed up on his doorstep.

“Up there”. All eyes shifted towards the specific star he was pointing to. “Right before he died, he promised me he’d guide me from the stars. Unfortunately, the stars are not visible in Gotham, so my brother is unable to be of much help unless I leave the city.”

“Your brother is Polaris, the North Star?” Tim questioned warily, most likely in attempts to not offend him. Damian was aware of how stupid it sounded, but Danyal had promised, and his brother never broke his promises.

“Yes. Danyal is with the stars now, just as he always wanted”

THE WHITE LOTUS 3.05 "Denials"

[sifuhotthot]

I know quite a few people have pointed out how Ozai sees himself and Iroh in Zuko and Azula - the soft cowardly first born and the more deserving second born - but I think something that’s neat is that it seems Iroh does the exact same thing.

Iroh loves Zuko and sees him as his own son, saying that he is a troubled young man and acknowledges all the terrible things he went through. Iroh gave Zuko constant support and acted as a guiding light, a pillar to lean on. Zuko makes numerous mistakes, life ruining ones, but Iroh is always there.

Iroh did not give that same consideration to Azula, but instead said that  “she’s crazy and needs to go down.”

Iroh would tell Zuko not to give in to Azula’s deceit and selfishness, and that he must fight her in an agni kai to take his rightful place. He sees in her his brother, a tyrant, a monster - not a fourteen year old girl shaped by surroundings. A fourteen year old who, to my knowledge, has caused less problems than Zuko in the general world. 

Iroh remembers the mistakes of his past and sees Zuko repeat the same, and tries to help him off that path before it can go too far, that he is a Nice Young Man who is simply misguided. 

He sees what Azula in the future is capable of and decides that this is what her future will be. This is all Azula will amount to. Azula will be nothing more than another cruel member of the family. Azula needs to go.

the same thing that happened to logan is happening again to jack doohan. if anyone even cares.

[zorlok-if]

Didn't have much time in April to work on Zorlok with work and life stuff, but I'm gonna soft lock either June or July 13th for the next content update. It won't be all of episode 1 by any means, but I'm hoping to at least let players experience the first night, even if all three plot paths aren't available right away.

Now, and this isn't a guarantee of which paths will be implemented first, but to get an idea of which choices people are most interested in, feel free to select what you'd most like to do from the poll below. More information about each choice/path is available below the cut with very minor spoilers.

Revisit the scene of the ritual

Return to the abandoned bungalow to hopefully learn more about what happened this evening. Was Tommy telling you the whole truth? Is there something he overlooked, missed, or left behind? Is the place truly as deserted as he thought?

Try to get answers from the witch

Clearly this old lady knows more than Tommy, she might have even known your former self. So, you venture to the shop in an attempt to learn more about yourself and your situation, but it's the middle of the night. How are you gonna get in there? And what are you hoping to learn?

Raid a neighbor's garden for food

Tommy's next door neighbor has a lush garden. Perhaps unsure whether you or the Hound need food, or just wanting some comfort after a traumatic night, you can sneak over and steal some fresh produce. Just be careful not to get caught. That could have consequences ranging from a sleepy introduction to brutal slaughter.

okay but actually can we talk about the visual similarity between these two scenes. they're both lit pretty yellow and junho is looking up at the other party in both. guys do we think inho saw a recording of the scene with the vip and his vision in the second is partially guilt for shooting him and partially guilt for not preventing what the vip intended to do to him in the first.

How to train your Loki: step one, keep a hand on him at all times uwu

TACTILE HUSBANDS MY BELOVED

Mobius says "buddy" but his hands say "mine"

It has become evident that Mobius M. Mobius operates under the belief that maintaining constant physical contact with Loki Laufeyson is both necessary and expected. Mobius is just as bad as loki, maybe worse, because he does it so casually.

Mobius treats touching Loki like it’s part of his TVA-issued training. Standard protocol. Routine maintenance. mobius is so handsy with Loki. like absurdly so. like “i was assigned this god and now i must handle him at all times” levels of physical contact.

Mobius executes all physical contact with the effortlessness of someone who has done this a thousand times before. He never hesitates, never second-guesses. It’s all instinct

The man does not need to look at Loki to reach for him. Half the time he’s still talking, barely paying attention, but the hand lands. It’s automatic. Muscle memory.

Mobius does not believe in personal space when it comes to Loki. If Loki is within grabbing distance, he is grabbing.

Mobius M. Mobius touches Loki like it’s his job. Like it’s second nature. Like he doesn’t know how not to. like he’s saying you don’t have to go. And Loki, who spent lifetimes being untouchable, unreachable, a trick of the light, lets him.

Mobius never holds him down, he grounds him. every touch is steadying, reassuring, saying Im here, I see you, I know you.

Imagine being loki. you are untouchable. you are elusive. you have spent your entire existence slipping through people’s fingers, refusing to be held. and then you meet this man. This ridiculous little TVA agent who just. grabs you. and doesn’t let go. and for some reason??? you let him. it’s all so quiet, so natural, like neither of them ever learned another way to speak. so they just touch. in small, unconscious ways. like it’s normal. like they’re allowed.

This is husband behavior. this is emotional support norse god-wrangling behaviour. this is “stay close to me” behaviour.

Grimm is a shit parent with a troupe that actually knows parenting

they're bugs

[vulturevanity]

Anyway I can't get over the fact that before the incident Lorelai would encourage Molly to speak up. Both of their parents were too in their own heads to listen to Molly's quiet complaints, but Lori is loud. And Lori would use her loudness to speak for Molly, and Lori would teach Molly to be loud too, and even though Molly was kinda bad at it she still felt emboldened by her sister's support and encouragement, if only between the two of them. The Zoo skit in the 5th anniversary vod kills me about them

Ness having lived through insidious emotional abuse and neglect & grown up to be meek and submissive… Vs Kaiser having lived through overt physical and emotional abuse and neglect & grown up to be assertive and confident……….

Kaiser being aggressive and violent because of survival of the fittest and it’s What Works, and Ness being sooo mean and judgemental and verbally abusive to others because words are what decide your worth, other people’s vision and value of you are what decide your worth, because words hurt so so much and it’s his best weapon. The people who best know how hierarchies are

the incident // the aftermath

[beebfreeb]

Little things about Marcille make me so so so sick. Reading a book with the first character that's anything like you at all in even a somewhat respectable way and falling in love. She doesn't know anything about the food her mother grew up eating. She is subtly different from her peers and has never been sure where she fits in. AND despite those experiences she still falls victim to prejudiced thinking. She and Kabru should be besties who verbally fight like rabid dogs.
