#The other :

[kitkatmonsterfox]

Here's my fan interpretation of the other, aka The Duke, I didn't like the first attempt of drawing him. In fact, I hated it, so I'm happy how this came out!

follow by sketche draft of the progress

First draft

Second draft with sketches

[ubtendo]

This is how I imagined how the interrogation in Ep. 19 would have started

I made the sketch for this last week at work, and thankfully I remembered to bring it with me today, but I kind of rushed this so it kind looks meh to me

(Anyway here is the sketch as well and i actually like this more than the final)

The main Saiki friendgroup and pk psychics are mostly seperate group right? And Saiki acts deferently with both of them so what happened is someone from the main friendgroup (like Kaidou or sth) witnesses some "weird" Saiki behavior? Like Saiki being more sarcastic and mean or even violent thowards Toritsuka, while hanging out with him. Or he hears Saiki calmly saying "kill yourself" and he's shocked that Saiki, who is so nice and calm could say something like that, even to the germ. Or Teruhashi overhears a conversation between Aiura and Toritsuka that goes like: "Yo wheres Saiki" "oh he's stalking that guy again" "again? Damn he needs to leave that poor guy alone" and she's like "what? Stalking? I never thought Saiki was like that". Or the groups combine and they’re playing "who is the most likely to..." and there’s a question like "whos most likely to tell you to kill yourself/beat someone up" and the psychickers are automaticaly like "Saiki" "Saiki-san" "Kusuo" and everyone else questions if they even know him.

Okay, a fact we all need to get straight is that Time Lords are walking around saying "Thanks, Omega" (meaning the same of "Thanks God") without knowing what ABO is. Oh, the blessings of being an alien.

When you encounter the gaze of the Other, you meet not a seeing eye but a blind one. The gaze is not clear or penetrating, not filled with knowledge or recognition; it is clouded over and turned back on itself, absorbed in its own enjoyment. The horrible truth … is that the gaze does not see you. … You are on your own; the gaze of the Other is not confirming, it will not validate you.

—Joan Copjec

The Other said something in a language that Will did not know; his voice was like the cracking of ice on a winter lake, and the words were mocking.

Every now and again I feel like you have to make a drawing you really hate and this is the one for me

But I'm posting it anyway cause I didn't sit here for two hours for nothing

A Master’s Thesis for a university no less

-----

Yep, I’ve seen that!

at least that people got some dedication, I nearly died when I wrote mine but it wasn’t for shitposting so maybe that made it even more tedious lol

But I’d say, how can you even write a Thesis about something as empty as Fodlan? I think the writer mentionned how Supreme Leader didn’t attack civilians but... while we don’t see her do it, Ashe mentions they’re starving, Baldo’n’Waldi must come from somewhere (the experiments started in Remire, before the War, but obviously to be used for said war in, basically, Supreme Leader’s maternal territories!) and I guess the religious people fleeing the Empire or not bothering to send letters to their friends who don’t hear about them anymore since the war started must have been busy Zumba’ing with Rhea in the 5 stars Enbarr resort.

As someone from SPE (!) mentionned, the Fodlan games take explicit care not to have anyone seriously challenge her beliefs of criticise her, or give spotlight to her main, self-perceived, nemesis who... well, is either fridged, exists off-screen or gives infodumps before dying.

Which makes any discussion about a “Just War” completely moot - Watsonian wise, especially if you take Fodlan as this entity functionning under the Crust System - same, Doylist wise, with any comparisons with real world Conventions (iirc OP mentionned that one of they juries asked if taking a dragon prisoner could be considered a war crime or something like that lol) because, hey, it’s a video game basically centered around a gameplay mechanic of depleting a red unit’s HP bar by hitting them with a weapon.

This is basically a really good shitpost which shows a lot of dedication - and that’s the kind of stuff fandom thrives for (remember zigludo chan sama senpai’s wiki page?) !

but as a serious/discourse/meta piece...

It’s basically the same redshit 10k words, with a bit more formatting and no word limit.

I mean, I used the search engine for “nabatean” and found nothing, and I think you can’t valably discuss Supreme Leader’s motives, ignoring this 

“You are a child of the goddess. You must not be allowed power over the people!“

part of her reasoning to fight against the Church.

Not wanting to give that chamber pot any credit, but if they sprout heinous arguments to support their fave, imo, it’s basically because even the members of that hellpit noticed Supreme Leader’s, uh, fondness for Nabateans as a species, and since she can’t do anything BaD or be wrong, it means the species are BaD.

SPIDER FIT CHECK: KAINE PARKER

Woo! Time for round 2 baby! This time looking at Peter parkers edgier brother, Kaine. He has a few less than Ben, but his looks are more....varied.

Clone Saga: 8/10 

Kaine begins his costumed career as a caped vigilante in the clone sage who is very much obsessed with killing other clones. I like the pink ripped up cape and exposed veins crawling around his suit, really sells the whole ‘failed clone’ thing. Also this starts the trend of Kaine having just the nicest hair.

Dark Reign: 7/10

Getting alot of Resident Evil Mr.X vibes from this one.The locks remain flowing and lucious, despite the fact he is in fact a complete garbage man who probably eats rats. Cool coat tho

Tarantula: 8/10

Hell yes freaky monster man Kaine. In the Spider-Island event Kaine was revived from the dead by his dead beat dad as a giant spider monster. This is not the only time that Kaine is going to be a large spider monster

Big Time Suit (Stealth Mode): 9/10

Kaine finally gains his color scheme! After Peter frees him from being a spider-furry Kaine dons the Big Time suit Peter had worn earlier in the run, swapping out its normal green for red. I think it works extremely well.

Scarlet Spider: 12/10 

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

The primarily red suit with the black shoulder coating, taking his brothers name and symbol to honor him, the second Scarlet Spider suit is a banger. i love this costume so much.

The Other: 9/10

Giant Monster Kaine returns! This time he has a bit more fur on him, and is more of a spider centaur? I dig it. Thankfully he can do this on command and isnt stuck like this.

Kaine might have less suits than either of his brothers but hey, quality over quantity.

Ursula K. Le Guin:

If you deny any affinity with another person or kind of person, if you declare it to be wholly different from yourself—as men have done to women, and class has done to class, and nation has done to nation—you may hate it, or deify it, but in either case you have denied its spiritual equality, and its human reality. You have made it into a thing, to which the only possible relationship is a power relationship. And thus you have fatally impoverished your own reality.
