she’s an artist. she’s got DID and it’s not villainized. her armor is a bunch of tiny freaks in a trench coat. she’s good friends with one sword and traumatized another as a child but they are rebuilding that relationship. she infiltrated the mafia. her husband supports trans rights and I think she does too but this hasn’t been confirmed and probably won’t be for at least 3-5 years in our timeline. probably more. she needs therapy but was probably one of the reasons it was invented. she’s also ginger. I’m not saying who it is but you know who it is.

when Ame and Eursulon see Suvi having her breakdown and Ame's response is "Suvi!" and Eursulon's is "Sky!" 10/10 subtle character moment no notes all respect

Tried to make a character reference for Mariya from the new Saint Seiya spinoff since I couldn't find a character turnaround 🎀✨

Mostly I drew this for practice purposes and well, for having a reference of her outfits. Might be useful in the future... who knows!

Hope you like it! 🌟

Trying to manufacture a title fight because the guy in the fastest car is incapable of doing it himself. That is the guy you want to potentially be world champion. That is the guy you want to be the face of the sport. Please, be for real.

"I am entirely normal about this week's episode." I say, from my position atop the wall i have clawed my way up in feral narrative derangement.

"I have calmed down and am entirely ready to wait two weeks for the next episode." I say, in between anguished screeches that shatter glass and cause every cat within a 6 mile radius to go into a state of panic.

saw a post of yours from a few years ago about how there is never going to be a star trek show that critiques the federation. and i agree, i think the thought processes of the people who continue to expand on star trek will never be anything more radical than their current liberal state. i also can never remove that thought from my mind of what that would look like. what i see, in a non-existent world, is star trek ending off the films and television series with a pre-planned seven season long series that ends in the dismantling and abolition of the federation, with the first season/s being usual space exploration plots and as the show goes on the more the crew (of a starship) realizes what they're contributing to. this could set up really good holosuite episodes. when rewatching ds9, it was unavoidable to me that the holosuite episodes allow for the writers to romanticize the 1960's and to propagate their idea of english masculinity. a plot i derived from its only a paper moon, far beyond the stars, and our man bashir is a distressed black federation officer resorting to 50's holosuite programs, and all the programs are whitewashed and safe and thus construct the 50s as safe. the character stays in the holosuite and due to overusage, the computers begin to malfunction leading to a more realistic 50's slowly being presented. by the time the character deattaches themself from the program, they begin to see similarities between what they saw in the program and how the federation treats itself as superior to other races; it could end with this character witnessing another interaction between the federation and the ligonians (TNG episode: code of honor), with the narrative acknowledgement of how colonial the federation is and how they deliberately misconstrue the ligonians as under-developed and savage. the plot commenting on how people say shit like i want to live in the 1950s and are so priviliaged that they cant understand that not only were people trying to gain their rights in that era but because of the perpetual lack of doing shit and because of those reactionary sentiments we still havent gotten those rights. &c &c &c &c but we could have everything if the writers weren't liberals

i just wanted to talk. this fandom is very isolating in how it talks about politics and seeing the responses from that post alleviated that for a while

yesss i love that concept. applying a decolonial lens to star trek (and sf/f more broadly) is something i spend a lot of time thinking about and i love imagining what stories in those settings could look like guided by that philosophy. for better or for worse star trek is always going to be a product of its time and circumstances but that also gives us as fans so many interesting jumping off points to talk about stuff like, say, the unintentional imperialism and colonialism written into the show. for example i like tng, don’t get me wrong, but the whole concept of “white frenchman shows up to a new place and solves all of their problems with the power of ethical thinking” is uhh, not an unproblematic one!

imo a federation decolonization arc would’ve worked really well in either voyager or ds9. voyager had a phenomenal setup for it, especially with chakotay right there, but on the other hand it’s not like they could’ve had much of an impact on the federation as a whole. if ds9 had more of a focus on the bajorans and the maquis as opposed to starfleet and really committed itself to deconstructing the whole frontier myth it could’ve worked great. in terms of possible future series i think the best case scenario is that we get something like star wars’ andor but for the maquis, but realistically even that will still probably treat the federation as the lesser of two evils

also i think it's kind of underrated that prior to dai, solas straight up murdered felassan mid-sentence, for just implying that his plan needed to change, despite them being Comrades In Rebellion for however many thousand years

but then in trespasser, he actually says "i would treasure the chance to be wrong, my friend" to a friendly inquisitor who says they're going to prove that he doesn't need to go through with his plan. even with a hostile inquisitor he's like "yeah whatever, i hate your ass but i'm not going to kill you 🙄" despite this being the most likely person to be able to interfere with his plans, and logically he should really take them out if he wants to guarantee success. that is Growth.
