Prompt 136
There is a small child floating in the Watchtower.
They’re visibly not human, a too-big cloak of purple (what shade no one knows, all they can describe about the cloak is purple, nothing else) hanging from them as big Lazarus-green eyes glare down in something of a pout. The child huffs, blowing white hair out of their face despite it shimmering and shifting on its own already.
How the child, inhuman or not, found their way into the Watchtower- without setting off an alarm no less- is a concern. A very large concern, but it can wait because there is a four-year old (if the child is the equivalent of a human child that is) at oldest staring down at them.
“Do you know where the speedsters are?” the child piped up after an awkward stare-down, none of the league members present quite sure what to do in this situation. It was probably around time to call Batman… or they could call Flash instead.

All you are manifesting is YOURSELF

(SP edition)
Question: Can u explain in depth, like i’m 5
Answer: It's like when you think about your favorite toy and feel happy, even before you have it. You’re not trying to make the toy do something, you’re making yourself feel like it's already yours. When you focus on you being happy, loved, and in a relationship, that’s what shows up in your life. You don’t have to worry about the SP because it's about making you ready for the relationship you want.
You are changing the assumptions you hold about them since there are infinite versions of them that you can experience in your reality
Your SP is just one person, but they act differently depending on who they're around. For example, when they're with their teacher, they act like a student. When they're with their siblings, they act like a sibling. The same person has many different roles, depending on who they're interacting with.
So, when you're manifesting, you're changing how YOU see them and how they show up in YOUR life. In your story, they can show up as the loving partner you want, just like they show up as a student for their teacher or a sibling for their family
You're not actually changing them or making them do anything. What you're really doing is changing how you feel about being in a relationship.
You're imagining and believing that you are already in a loving relationship, no matter who it’s with

Delgado!Master really just jumped on that rowing machine because he knew the Doctor was about to enter his prison cell, didn't he?
He then used a towel to daintily dab at his face to get all that "excercise sweat" off.
He'd been sitting in his chair and reading a book literally 2 minutes ago. We saw him. The Doctor saw him. Jo Grant saw him.
#doctor who#best enemies#the master#classic who#he probably misted himself with a bit of water to make himself look dewy right before the Doctor came in#oh god gay people are the worst#and yeah the observation that the Master was fake!working out for the Doctor is not exactly new#I just never realised that both the Doctor and Jo would also have been AWARE of that during that scene. and that makes it SO much better#I forgot how much fun Sea Devils is#worst sound effects and background noises in all of DW. but fun

okay but why DOES solas have naked statues of ghilan'nain holding hands with andruil
taash has apparently determined that he's not smuggling it to fund the rebellion
#solas#ghilan'nain#davrin#taash#trying to work out the timeline in my head to determine what kind of weird this was#so the letters between solas and ghil in veilguard indicate that it was during solas's rebellion that ghil ascended#(presumably from a priestess of andruil. assuming the dalish held onto that detail. with priestess in effect meaning more like 'scientist')#but before her ascent they were familiar with each other as like. preeminent researchers both working for the gods#presumably people are only making statues of ghil and andruil being intimate after ghil ascends?#unless solas personally made a statue of his colleague yuri-ing out with her boss#but otherwise he what? stole a statue depicting their lesbian relationship made by their worshippers?????#probably the real answer based on taash's observations is that this whole statue collection of the evanuris is emotional somehow#like either he's pacing around the statues hating them or he has some sort of reluctant repressed nostalgia for being part of them#and so the naked statues of andruil and ghil are just a part of that emotion-driven hoarding behavior#but even then. solas. surely they make andruil and ghilan'nain statues with clothes on

You Are Being Haunted — and Science Can’t Save You.
You are being haunted. And you don’t even know it.
Not by ghosts. Not by demons. But by something far worse.
Something that follows you. From inside you. From before you were conscious — and long after you think you’re dead.
I. What Follows You Without Footsteps?
In quantum physics, there’s a term:
Superposition — the idea that particles can exist in multiple states at once, until observed.
Observation collapses the wave. But what collapses you?
Answer: Your shadow.
You think it’s a trick of the light. But in quantum terms, it’s something else:
A probability field. A projection. A permanently entangled copy of your presence in spacetime.
Not metaphor. Not poetry. Physics.
II. It Comes Back. Every Time.
You can try to change.
Move cities.
Get therapy.
Shave your head and call it rebirth.
But the shadow doesn’t care.
Because the shadow isn't a symptom. It’s a recording.
A data echo of everything you’ve been. And everything you're capable of being again.
If you’ve ever tried to escape yourself — Only to circle back into old habits, old wounds, old lusts — That wasn’t weakness. It was recursion.
And recursion is physics. Not failure.
III. Quantum Haunting Is Real. Here's the Data.
Not allegory.
Literal evidence exists.
Hiroshima, 1945.
When the atomic bomb dropped, thousands vaporized in microseconds. But their shadows did not.
人影の石 (Hitokage no Ishi) — The Human Shadow Etched in Stone.
A woman sitting near the Sumitomo Bank. Vaporized by thermal radiation.
But the stone steps behind her were bleached — except where her body shielded them.
Her final shape. Frozen into reality. A dark imprint of her last moment of life.
They call it: The Human Shadow of Death. The Blast Shadow.
But let’s be precise:
It wasn’t just a stain. It was a recording. Of presence. Of heat. Of witness.
And here’s what’s worse:
You’re leaving them, too. Right now.
IV. What Science Still Won’t Admit
There is no unified theory explaining consciousness.
We can split atoms. We can map genomes. But we can’t explain:
Why you dream of your ex.
Why trauma shows up as smell.
Why some memories scream without sound.
Why the past lives in your body.
There is no consensus on how the mind locates itself inside the body.
But evidence suggests:
There’s something watching you from within the field of you. Something that records every shame, lust, betrayal, fear — not emotionally, but energetically.
Your trauma? Not stored in the body. Encoded.
In the wavelength of your biofield. In the negative space of your choices. In your shadow print.
V. The Observer Effect (and Why You’re Fucked)
Quantum mechanics says:
Observation changes the outcome.
If that’s true…
What happens when you observe yourself?
Guilt. Self-hatred. Shame. Depression.
Those aren’t emotions. They’re echoes. They're your own wave function collapsing on itself.
And the more aware you become of who you’ve been — The darker the shadow that stands behind you.
VI. No One Escapes. Not Even The Enlightened.
Go meditate. Go fast. Go run barefoot through forests chanting mantras.
It won’t matter.
Even monks report psychological possession during shadow integration.
Carl Jung, the man who coined the term “the shadow self,” wrote:
“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life — and you will call it fate.”
But Jung didn’t know quantum field theory.
If he did, he would’ve known:
You’re not just fighting patterns. You’re resisting a mirrored field embedded into the architecture of time.
And here's the kicker: You destroy it — you destroy yourself.
VII. The Human Shadow is Not Just Metaphor — It's Mechanism
Remember Hiroshima.
The shadow was left behind. Because the body absorbed the light.
That’s not poetic. That’s radiological fact.
Let me rephrase it for clarity:
The body was erased. The shadow stayed.
And still we ask:
Is the soul what survives death?
What if it’s not the soul?
What if it’s the shadow?
What if what stays behind isn’t divine — but undeniable?
What if you die… And what remains is everything you couldn’t face?
VIII. Ladies and Gentlemen, Meet Your Quantum Stalker
You call it:
Guilt
Anxiety
The past
A bad habit
But science has a term for it too:
Quantum entanglement.
The particles that make you… you Are never alone.
And if they once interacted with trauma? They are forever linked to the energy of that event.
Even when you leave the place. Even when the person dies. Even when you heal.
The field doesn’t forget.
And neither does your shadow.
IX. Why You Should Be Scared
Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer told the story of the bomb.
But not the blast shadows.
Hollywood won't show you the real horror:
People permanently burned into stone — by light.
That’s not science fiction. That’s what’s left when energy remembers.
And energy always remembers.
You? You think you’re safe.
But the field has you documented.
Every word. Every orgasm. Every betrayal.
There is no deleting your shadow.
X. Final Revelation
You're haunted.
By what you've done. By what you've denied. By the part of you that watched you sin — and never blinked.
This is not metaphor. This is physics.
You are not being followed. You are being mirrored.
And the only way to kill your shadow?
Is to never cast one again. But to stop casting one…
You must destroy all light.
Including yourself.
And so it comes back.
Every time.
🧠 Call to Action
You are being watched. By a part of you that remembers what you’d rather forget.
Reblog if the idea of your own shadow now makes your skin crawl. Reblog if the physics of guilt suddenly makes sense. Reblog because maybe you’re haunted too — and you didn’t even know it.
⚠️ LEGAL DISCLAIMER:
This post is psychological horror, quantum theory satire, trauma field exploration, and sociocultural commentary. It is protected under the laws of literature, symbolic science, and emotionally accurate terror. If you’re uncomfortable, that’s your shadow blinking back.

sometimes ppl block me for the simple crime of loving a character they hate (misdemeanor) rather than the crime of said character being a straight man war criminal (felony) and i think that's beautiful
#don't get me wrong I DO deserve it#also for the record neither solas nor cullen are straight To Me but. for the comedic effect of this post I will observe canon#solas#cullen rutherford#many such cases but those are the primaries#dragon age#shitposting ofc

...she’s not quite fast enough to make it pass by her in a blur.
it is an INTERNATIONAL HOLIDAY aka @milkywayes's birthday!!!! i wanted to draw a scene from chapter 1 of her amazing fic "dreamt a cipher". everyone in the entire world needs to read it imo, it is a masterclass of storytelling matched only by her own skill in art!!! happy happy birthday bestie!!!!!!
#drawlings#mass effect#femshep#commander shepard#this is actually a redraw of the first cipher fanart i made#it was of a different scene but still of shepard observing neptune#but i didn't like how it turned out... i like to think i've done it more justice here <3#SORRY this is so late btw i nearly missed the end of the day for you </3#i spent a lot of time on this and i probably would continue to fiddle with it if it wasn't almost midnight for you

Something I love about how Pride and Prejudice is told through an omnipresent narrator, aside from the witty remarks and insight into other characters it allows even though it's usually focused on Elizabeth, is how it plays on the audience's own prejudices and assumptions.
The narrator tells us very early on, chapter 4, that Darcy is "haughty, reserved, and fastidious, and his manners, though well-bred, were not inviting." We've already seen that when we meet him the previous chapter, and will see more of it in those following. But it's the readers, along with Elizabeth, who take that observation as not only a list of flaws (despite only the first actually being negative) but presumes even more damaging flaws must be attached to it. Darcy can be off-putting, especially so in the setting we meet him in: he dismissed Elizabeth within earshot of her, didn't engage with people attempting to converse with him, etc. It's easy to assume the worst of him in a world so driven by social niceties, and because we follow Elizabeth, who is so lively and playful amidst the rules which govern society. Elizabeth thinks he's bad tempered? It would make sense - he hasn't shown consideration for others much socially, why would he care when he's angry? He acted from resentment and jealousy and went against his father's will? That's not such a jump after the conclusion of a bad temper, his own acknowledgement of implacable resentment, and evidence of pride. The awareness of one offensive trait so naturally leads to prejudice against it, that we easily assume still worse qualities must exist. We are as mistaken as Elizabeth.
Even the idea that 'No, Darcy was never haughty or rude, he was just shy and misunderstood, the narrator is wrong' is just magnifying that prejudice. Yes, we do find out later that Darcy is not at ease among strangers, and was always intrinsically good; his morals and core values meant he was never as bad as Elizabeth believed. But that doesn't mean he was without flaws, and it's so fascinating that some analysis of his character seek to completely remove the negative traits which he eventually overcame after acknowledging them in himself. The logic seems to be that they feel if he had them in the start that he isn't actually such a good person. It's just another example of being so prejudiced against certain flaws that it's impossible for some people to reconcile that there doesn't have to be more serious failings attached, and someone can still be a good person despite being arrogant and not always nice. It's, ironically, being prejudiced in the exact same way that Elizabeth was at the start of the novel. It's amazing that Jane Austen was able to tap into that aspect of human nature so deftly, and invoke in both in her main character, and readers to this day.
Now, of course, the story is so well known it's rare for anyone to read it blind, so it's less likely anyone will be unaware of Darcy's good qualities despite first seeing his worst. Even if they do, Pride and Prejudice has become so genre defining that new readers who are the slightest bit genre savvy will be more aware than contemporary audiences were. But even if we know the story it's still so understandable why Elizabeth feels the way she does. We see what she sees and feel her conclusions make sense. Just as, even though the narrator tells us Darcy is starting to catch feelings for Elizabeth, we fully comprehend her not noticing and believing there's a mutual dislike. And though that is concrete evidence of Elizabeth not reading Darcy and his motives correctly, we are still so sympathetic of the basis of her prejudice that her continued belief in Darcy's lack of virtues makes sense from her point of view. We can see, as she later will, that she takes it too far, and should have noticed evidence to the contrary, but her prejudice against him based on his early behaviour and her pride at reading people correctly is so understandable.
Basically, in a story about the characters' pride and prejudices, I love, love, LOVE how the narrator's voice brings out those same traits in readers the exact same way we see it presenting in Elizabeth. We're all on that journey with her, and we can likewise learn the same lessons about ourselves as she does. Pride and Prejudice feels timeless, because even though society and thus the nuance changes, the book is about human nature, and that remains essentially the same.
#pride and prejudice#jane austen#discourse#elizabeth bennet#fitzwilliam darcy#i do think P&P does this more than Persuasion or S&S#S&S has each stance exemplified by two different characters and we observe rather than experience the same journey ourselves#Persuasion features SO many different types of persuasion and analyses them and explores the well meaning/self-serving applications of them#and that the effects can be good or bad despite the motive and all the nuance of 'when do we have the right or duty to persuade others'#but that's still a more clinical look at it and we're aware we're analysing it#but P&P really makes us PART of the titular experience and I think so many people don't realise it#I think it's a huge reason of why the novel is so satisfying#austen opinions#mine

When it comes to character driven RPGs, what is considered the canon protagonist can depend heavily on not only the presence but the performance of a voice actor.
In KOTOR 1, Revan is a voiceless protagonist who's characterization is dependant entirely on player input. As such, there really is no way to determine a canon Revan in a way that would satisfy everyone, or even the majority of players. And we know this to be true thanks to the Revan book and SWTOR.
By contrast, Jane Shepard and Marian Hawke have such perfect performances in their games that, save for the incels, everyone considers them the canon version of the character.
#kotor#revan#mass effect#fem shadow milk#dragon age#hawke#rpg observation#and anyone who insist on voiceless protagonists are lame#i wanna see a good voice performance out of my protag

You've established that Odile has rather unhinged taste in people. Do you have further headcanons on that topic?
Hm... Most of the adjacent headcanons that I could talk about here would require a lot of psychological and cultural context. So let's just talk about that context!
As a child, Odile was disconnected from her peers due to heritage, temperament, and latent transgenderism. As lonely children sometimes do, she decided that she didn't need or want friends anyway, and even if she did, it wouldn't be any of these losers! They were always wasting their time on fun and social useless things that she was too weird smart and special to be invited want to do. She studied very hard and excelled in school, did a couple extracurriculars that didn't require much teamwork, and at some point during adolescence realized that unfortunately the Vaugardians were correct about the changing genders thing.
Ka Buan philosophy encourages people to understand themselves, refine themselves, explore different facets of themselves — but not change themselves, because fundamental characteristics simply cannot be changed. Accordingly, gender-noncomforming fashion and binding/padding and nicknames are fine, hormones and surgery/bodycraft and declaring yourself a different gender are not. But Odile wasn't one to let social mores stop her, so once she reached adulthood, she left her hometown and showed up at the city as Odile. And not just any city, but one with a reputation for cutting-edge craft research and certain countercultures.
You can't just show up and ask around for where the illegal bodycrafting is, though. You have to meet people, win their trust, let them introduce you to other people, repeat. Odile... honestly wasn't that great at it. She hadn't had much cause to practice social skills, so she wasn't very friendly or persuasive! But she was determined, thorough, confident, passionate, genuine in her intentions, and newly hot — and you can get away with a certain amount of blunt arrogance when you're hot. You just have to let people assume you're too cool and busy for humble niceties, which Odile did quite easily, because she's always thought of herself as such. So she found her way through the right queer punk circles eventually and completed her physical transition!
And she liked those circles. The people she met and the topics they discussed and the things they did were all so much more interesting than she had assumed any peers of hers could be! But she still considered herself more competent and correct than anyone else around her, because why would that change just because she moved? Her success in transitioning just further proved that she could do anything if she tried hard enough, that she was right all along in assuming her social failures were due not to lack of skill but lack of interest. So she ended up in this dynamic where she was impressed by the people around her and wanted to have fun with them and learn more about them, but also thought herself better than them and above such things as kindness or friendship.
And she was in that "holy shit I'm surrounded by dykes and I'm a dyke now too" stage that some queer people experience after they come out.
So, she wasn't interested in boring. She wasn't interested in nice. She wasn't interested in regular people with regular concerns, like the peers who excluded her in her youth. She wasn't interested in romance or committed relationships or being emotionally vulnerable.
And, she wasn't put off by annoyance, because people annoyed her as a whole anyway. She wasn't put off by danger, because she was sure she could handle anything. She wasn't put off by clashing personalities, because it wasn't like she was planning to go on long walks on the beach with any of her partners anyway.
Thus, she found herself drawn to the most exciting people in the room. Interpersonal drama, emotional outbursts, poorly-thought-out-choices, intense obsession, risky hobbies... it was all oh-so thrilling! Of course, she did realize that the people she was attracted to had major, glaring flaws. But Odile was determined, thorough, confident, passionate, genuine in her intentions, and newly hot. If she couldn't fix them, who could?
We know from Odile's optional sidequest that when she sees something suspicious, she dedicates herself to solving the mystery. We know from her presence at Mirabelle's side that when she sees a problem, she steps in to help, because if you want something done right you do it yourself. The one major exception? The topic that has her backing down, giving up, confessing incompetence?
Emotions.
She has long since learned that she is not actually very good at fixing those.
#odile: i am so much better than all these messy bitches#odile: [the messiest bitch of them all]#sometimes.. trying to fix them..... makes them worse#esp when you're observant and clever but not very experienced with social-emotional skills but not willing to admit your own faults#and also maybe have a biased view of what's even a problem to begin with#tbh tho i think she thinks she was worse than she really was#like people change each other all the time for good or for ill#she's not necessarily uniquely terrible for failing to have the exact effects on people that she was aiming for#plus she remembers the worst moments and assumes that's what she must have always been like#when sometimes she rly did have a net positive effect#and more often she had no lasting effect at all#she still thinks she's so special 🙄#:3#isat odile#in stars and time#ask meme answers#s.isat#s.odile#isat
