watching old stuff (like, beginning of aew) and this is kips first match of tv/dynamite. the fact that he can hang with the fucking elite says so much of the level of talent he actually has

the crowd is chanting "this is awesome" while hes in the ring, having winning offense against matt jackson

hes being put on notice here. he makes people take a double take. he doing well in a tag match against the elite. he had a banger before with hangman. he won the first ever singles match in aew history

so fucking by god tell me why is kip sabian still overlook, under rated as all hell and not given opportunities to prove himself when back FOUR YEARS AGO he was this fucking good and now hes even better

One thing I love about the persona dancing games is how pissed off the characters sound whenever I don’t clear a stage. “WHAT? SERIOUSLY? 😡” “That must’ve been so embarrassing to watch…” like wow guys thanks so much for that glorious motivation, really makes me feel better about my playing ability.

sometimes when i say i “ship” something i mean im invested in these characters relationship and how their personalities will compliment/clash to make each other better/worse and im obsessed with the way their storylines intertwine with each other. and other times when i say i “ship” something i mean i find the idea of these characters dating hilarious and i dont care about their dynamic beyond a few memes. like an actual ship vs a crackship.

but sometimes i see a ship and think “oh thats funny” but then i find out people actually ship it and have written 80k words of meta on why the ship is Good, Actually. but when i read it i am overwhelmed by the They Would Not Fucking Say That-ness of it all. and in recognizing how They Would Not Fucking Say That i am forced to think about the ship and its dynamic in detail to decide what They Would Fucking Say. and by the end i can’t even crackship it anymore. because once you think about it too hard the ship stops being funny it just starts being bad

Would introducing wild European rabbit blood into Silvers help them regain/maintain the preferred body type? Surely a few European rabbits with silvering must still pop up occasionally.

I mean, you could, but I don't think that's something that necessarily should be done. Don't get me wrong, I'm curious as to what the outcome of that might be, but you've got to also consider the ethics involved with taking a genuinely wild animal and trying to breed it to a domestic animal. Rabbits are barely even domesticated as it is - reintroducing wild rabbits to the gene pool would mean you're partially undoing what domestication has happened for them so far. The offspring would probably have horrid temperaments, which is apparently something Silvers already suffer enough from as it is. Basically it would be like... Almost trying to completely restart the breed, if not trying to restart the domestication of the rabbit, and for it to even vaguely work (outside of the potential ethical issues of breeding a wild animal to a domestic animal), it would involve a ton of culling.

AG implies something unfortunate in CF. In CF, the end of the war against TWSID sounded like a pyrrhic victory at best. In AG, we saw that Thales is willing to mind control Edelgard to keep her under his control. What if that was the great sacrifice made at the end of CF for the BE to win?

Edelgard's endings were vague enough to interpret it as her post-mind control. Her ending with Lysithea seems to support it too. Edelgard got back her "stolen years" of being young and free. She could have grown up mentally again into an Emperor but under the BE's influence.

The war-mongering Edelgard died in the war against TWSID. The mentally-a-child Edelgard was left to replace her and clean up with the BE.

Yeah, that would be awful if she killed Thales and was freed of the mind control, only to find out she killed her brother and a whole lot of other people. That's something she'd never be able to rectify just because her memories came back and people would hate her even if she didn't remember why or if she remembered why but couldn't do anything to bring back the people who died.

I did consider this might be the case for Houses, but I figured that probably wasn't the case because in AM, Thales is killed when stilled using Arundel as a disguise, but when Dimitri asks Edelgard to meet up with him, she's the same person before and after Thales dies (in chapter 19 when they defeat him in Deirdru).

It could be either inconsistency in Houses' routes' writing, they chose not to make those things canon in each route (so it could be the case in CF but not AM), or it's just a Hopes specific thing.

Actually while writing those posts I did think about adding it to the post, but I was like I'm not sure it's valid since in AM Thales dies the earliest per route (he dies later in the timeline in SS and in VW, so any mind control wouldn't be broken and Edelgard would've died before that could happen since she dies in both routes before Thales. In CF he doesn't die during the story at all so we couldn't see any aftermath directly).

Maybe since they wrote those endings the way they did, they decided to add some nods to them in Hopes. I feel like AM removed the possibility that Edelgard would regress to being twelve in Houses, but I think her memories were able to come back. In CF they don't come back even when she fights Dimitri, and Thales is still alive by then. Dimitri dies in SS and VW before either Edelgard or Thales, but in AM Edelgard remembers that she knew Dimitri as a child and Thales is dead by then.

It seems like there's definitely some level of memory altering that Thales used in both Houses and Hopes that was removed when he died in AM/AG, though Hopes might have taken it a step further and instead of just giving back her lost memories, she might have lost all her memories from her post-Faerghus childhood to the present.

We don't know for sure which it is of course, since she could still be the same Edelgard but just remembered the person she was warring against was her childhood friend, but with AG's ending it definitely supports the idea that Thales manipulated her memories and that her trauma wasn't the cause of forgetting Dimitri.

I think it's also worth noting that she remembers she was in Faerghus for a while but can't recall the name of "her first love" in her Goddess Tower conversation. It makes me think Thales specifically made her forget Dimitri so that she wouldn't have an attachment to him when the time came for her to start a war.

The thing is, Thales is smart and I'm sure he calculated things like how close the Kingdom and the Church were, if Edelgard wouldn't kill him if she knew they were friends, and that he specifically wanted her to forget her interactions with a Crest bearer since he wants the bloodlines wiped out. According to Houses, Dimitri was supposed to be killed at Duscur too, but I wouldn't think Thales just 100 percent expected him to die, like, I'm sure he had contingency plans if a Crest bearer survived that attack. I don't think he'd have all that planned out and have no backup. Since Rufus didn't have a Crest, it made it acceptable to use him to get him to kill Lambert and Dimitri, because Thales probably would want to kill anyone with the bloodline period (not just the ones who had Crests bc any of Rufus' children could've had Crests according to the bloodline lore), but Rufus wouldn't be an immediate concern and could be dealt with later.

Tbh I don't like CF/hate the way it ended between Edelgard and Dimitri because it left a bitter taste in my mouth how coldly she killed him even though he called her El. I guess it's possible she might not have heard it, but he wasn't whispering or anything so it was always weird to me how she killed him despite telling Byleth "nobody" since her "siblings" had called her that. If anyone else called her that I feel like she would have wanted answers and it'd be like a reverse AG where she wanted answers from Dimitri to understand what was going on.

Feels like missed potential imo for CF that could have made AG a parallel with him seeking her out for information.
