ever think about how in tnp bramble is suspicious of hawk until the /moment/ they visit tiger together? and then gets mad at squilf for expressing an opinion he used to agree with?
Actually! The moment Bramble stops being suspicious of Hawkfrost is when he's jealous of Squilf's magical telepathic bond to her sister. It's like spite. It fascinates me that you can read it as though Brambleclaw is being consumed by jealousy, trying to have everything that Squilf does, as though his "hatred" of her is coming from envy.

I've been watching Hazbin Hotel in prime. Just watched episode 5 and I gotta ask
Why, oh, WHY DON'T I SEE MORE PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT "MORE THAN ANYTHING" WHEN TALKING ABOUT THE HAZBIN HOTEL MUSIC???
Like I get it, the song before it "Hell's Greatest Dad" Is a bop reminiscent of other music from the era its parodying. I loved it.
BUT why are you only putting clips of that song when this MASTERPIECE comes a few minutes after
I honestly don't even know where to begin with this song. The visuals are beautiful, especially when we get moments like this where you can just see the absolute LOVE this man has for her daughter is so sweet and Heartwarming I just-
The voices are fenomenal but what else can you expect from the broadway talents of Erika Henningsen and Jeremy Jordan.
There is also the whole Symbolism with passing the baton to the next generation and stuff. I- I can't even get into the specifics right now Im too emotional.
But above all else THE LYRICS
ESPECIALLY THAT LAST ONE
"I'M GRATEFUL YOU ARE MY DAUGHTER/FATHER MORE THAN ANYTHING"
DO YOU WANT ME TO CRY?? CAUSE I AM. I AM BAWLING MY EYES OUT RIGHT NOW.
It's just so fucking beautiful man. Probably the best song I will hear all year. Obviously my favorite from Hazbin.

And there's a lake
And at the bottom you'll find all our friends
They don't swim cause they're all dead
We never are what we intend, or invent
and other song that also fits for y'all retro lovers:
In the town of broken dreams
The streets are filled with regret
Maybe down in Lonesome Town
I can learn to forget

happy art vs artist 2023 season!
this year has been a bit tough for me, not only with art but personally as well. my creativity's gone up and down a lot and i haven't always had the motivation to create, but if there's anything to say is that at least i've stopped taking art so seriously. i've done a lot of silly doodles whenever i wanted, and although i didn't make as many 'high quality' pieces as usual, those that i did i poured my all into, just because i truly felt like it.
so to another year, and even more art!

Ok girls hear me out I have seen the future. I just read that Honda and Yamaha will get big concessions for next year, here's what I propose:
Marc wins the title next season and then he's interviewed by the media and as always they compare him to Vale like "so Marc you've won a title on a Ducati, something Valentino couldn't do" and Marc answers "well I guess his ambition outweighed his talent" (yes I know he wouldn't say this, he lacks Vale's mean streak, but let a girl dream) and then he drops the bomb: he's going back to Repsol Honda to replace Mir!
So now in 2025 we have Marc vs Valentino at home and Honda has abracadabra'd their way to a good bike and Marc wins the title again! On a Honda! Everybody liked that! And then he's interviewed again and they say "congrats on your tenth title Marc, you have surpassed Valentino" and I think Marc is extremely happy about winning on a Honda again but at the same time, surpassing Vale isn't at all the catharsis he thought it would be because sometimes closure is impossible and I think he's surprised about how much it still hurts because the pain has dulled a lot with the years but achieving what Vale couldn't achieve is both a knife and a warm embrace and the tears fall because of overwhelming joy but also because some things are gone forever and yet the scars remain.

What gets me about DOTCs is ot could've been better. Like, it's by far the worst arc in Warriors.
It kills me because they completely wasted so much good material from the field guides. COTC could have been repurposed into a 6 arc book where you follow the code as it's made, from the First Battle to the Law of Loyalty, to the rise of deputies.
But, they're unable to kill off characters they like too much, so they just slaughter powerless women to make the male arcs sadder and plunge us into fucking insultingly bad "drama" between the boys.
And by "drama" I mean Gray Wing playing defense for his brother's shitty actions endlessly, Thunder being sooo sad his Real Dad doesn't love him, and whatever the fuck they were going for with that Clear Sky Redemption Fart.
Sometimes i hear someone caw like "I like it because it's like tpb because the cats are fighting again!" And like... go read TPB because you clearly don't remember it.
In TPB, Brokenstar is dethroned in BOOK 1. Its prologue OPENS on a battle at Sunningrocks. Don't @ me that DOTC is anywhere near that level of a rollercoaster when Gray Wing cries that self defense makes him Just As Bad every 5 minutes

I’m thinking about Natlan and I just need one thing off my chest
If the theories are right and the Pyro Archon is currently dead and will be resurrection like the title of the chapter suggests, I want her to be a strong and respected woman.
Like, I know we’re already getting Murata and she’s gonna be a Murata Himeko expy (which I kinda don’t like but sure whatever Hoyo) from Honkai Impact 3rd, but idk I just feel like we need a single female archon that doesn’t have a bad relationship with her people AND is powerful.
Right now I think it’s safe to say that the power scaling of the archons is Zhongli, Ei, Venti, Nahida, and then Furina (I know she’s not an archon anymore I’m just including her bc I like her and I’m bias). Also, as an aside, this got to long so I’m putting it down here. I ranked Venti over Nahida not because her powers are weaker than Venti’s but because Venti has more experience. He can fight and knows the full extent of her powers and survived the Archon War; while Nahida would outsmart him no problem, Venti would overpower her physically I just wanted to clarify
Zhongli and Venti are from the OG Seven and have positive relationships with their respective countries. They’re both powerful and well respected.
Ei is hella powerful, but she did steal everyone’s visions so I don’t think she’s respected exactly. She’s more feared in my eyes. Like, absolutely, they respect her because she’s their archon and is powerful and is trying to change, but the people of Inazuma are very aware that Ei is capable of hurting her people if it means achieving her goal. OBVIOUSLY Ei herself doesn’t want to hurt her people and that was the puppet being tricked by the Fatui that did all that, but the people themselves don’t necessarily know that, so they just think Ei had a change of heart.
Nahida’s whole storyline in the Sumeru Archon Quests was reinstating her as the highest and most respected authority. Everyone loves her and for good reason! She’s great, and she’s doing her job as an archon really well. However, she is possibly one of the weakest archons due to age and experience. I can see her being a MIGHTY archon when she’s older, but how long is that gonna take? We’ll probably never see Nahida at her peak.
Then there’s Furina. Her storyline was AMAZING, I think we can all agree the Fontaine Archon Quests were great. However, Furina was seen as a joke or mascot by her people rather than an actual mighty archon. They just followed her because her voice was loud and she played the role well. Furina was never strong or respected, not until AFTER she lost her divinity for good.
Ei is strong but not respected, Nahida is respected but not strong, and Furina is not strong nor respected.
And this isn’t me trying to say Zhongli and Venti are bad or anything. There’s absolutely a discussion for misogyny in Genshin, but I’m not really opening that can of worms right now.
I’m just looking at the dynamics we have for the Archons and am hoping that we get a strong and respected female archon at some point.
It could be the Tsaritsa for all we know! The Tsaritsa is incredibly badass and there’s some indications that the intentions behind the Fatui aren’t that bad but their actions are, so it could be that the Tsaritsa is our strong AND respected Archon.
Yet, Childe’s line about her makes me think that people have their doubts, so is she really that respected as we think?
That just leaves Murata, and I am hoping that if the resurrection thing is about her, then I hope Murata is very strong and highly respected.
But if the resurrection is about someone else, say,the Pyro Sovereign, then I am BEGGING Hoyo to make the Pyro Sovereign a woman. We lost a female archon to a male sovereign I don’t want it to happen again.
