Ah, so today was Belial's angst day, huh... I see... I hope one day he will get damn help

From Bubs episode I remember only him cry and throwing up over Lucifer's beauty

I had gore idea but you know? Fuck it.

Belial and Beelzebub gets tired of Lucilius and just... If they could revive him, then why not Lucifer? At least he would be little nicer.

Also... Lucifer don't need to destroy a world because he already fought God and then moved on with his day. It's therapeutic, I guess. Also I think I remember in first part of wmtsb that Four Primarchs have together power equal to God and like... How do you know? Did Lucifer told you? How much stronger is Lucifer? Excuse me???

Also, Lucifer with his theme of evolution isn't kind of opposition to Baha with his rebirth and destruction, again and again, like he non stop repeat some sort of loop? And God of Stars is opposite to Sky God?? And they fight to become whole as Omnipresent?? But Lucifer also is opposite AND equal in power, soo...???

I am just thinking too much about possibility that God of Stars has power to change world around her (ee, main story? Sus woman appears with Baha?), but she wants unchanging cycle as her order

While Baha wants world to be freed from that cycle, but his power can only destroy and recreate, but does it changes something?? (Baha just getting tired of trying and using Lucifer as substitute for God of Stars and Lucifer is just like "Yeah that's my deal, to evolve, I see no reason to refuse your proposition"). There is something about Lucifer in that garden, still conscious.

Yeah, once again I listened too much to Wings of Terror, version by Stella Magna. I am sure remix of this, Paradise Lost and Zero would be pretty nice as Lucifer theme *inhale enormous amount of copium and loses conscious*

weird things happen on this blog at time i swear, but yes, Belial angst. Wishing for him to get help as well.

And yeah i remember that too (Bubs being compromised by his huge ugly crush on the Lucifaces…. embarassing for him but also relatable) but yeah i also remember the Otherworlds stuff being a bit hard to swallow.

and oh god, promising.

The idea of the duo that went through all the length possible to kill Lucifer going "actually let's bring Lucifer back" is so funny to me please.

And that's a good point. Lucifer would indeed not destroy the world, he wouldn't care for that, but as for the primarches… tbh i'd be inclined to think they reckonned it by now, bc knowing Lucifer had met God at this point it really makes it like a bold comment to make.

I agree on Lucifer being the opposite of Bahamut as his thematic of evolution VS destruction, or more like, they have drastically different approach to how to let the world exist without it specifically being on a scale, so it does leave Baha on the scale with the God of the Stars/Sky God thingy. so Lucifer is kinda a representant of the skyrealm, of the people living here, who is caught in the crossfire but who's existance is the one thing that can push through, to not let destruction whip away what evolution worked so long to create.

i haven't reached the point of the main story where i could think about the God of Stars though…

That said the whole idea regarding how he would view Lucifer in all this is pretty compelling i'd say.

and HELPP. amazing brainrot going on there i see! Thanks for sharing ;D

Spent a ridiculous amount of time last night obsessively editing my hand written zines in Photoshop to take away any tiny blemishes so they were definitely readable.

Whatever. Understand or don't.

Happy Amok Time Day, friendly reminder that Theodore Sturgeon, the writer of the episode, is credited with the first positive portrayal of homosexuality in science fiction with his short story The World Well Lost (1953), 14 years before Amok Time aired. Which could mean nothing.

just remembered a fic on AO3 (or more likely LJ because it had that distinct late 00's experimental vibe) that appeared double-spaced oddly, in that some paragraphs would be spaced normally and others would have double or even triple spaces in between. it was about one half of the otp getting over the other's death (or coma, can't remember which), so all the comments were about how poignant the use of visual spacing was as a means to convey all the emotional holes in the character's life.

and then the author replied like... *giggle* guys it's NOT double spaced. try selecting the whole text

and we were all like "no WAY"

but we selected the text, and yes!!!

the "holes" in the story? they were actually lines and actions from the dead/coma character's ghost, rendered invisible to the eye by the simple trick of coloring the text the exact same as the background, revealed by nothing more than a click and a drag of the mouse

a story about the profound loneliness of losing your the partner of your life and having to make do without them, without anything to fill the holes they'd left behind, suddenly became a story about the profound helplessness of seeing someone you love suffer from your absence while you are right there, unable to do anything about it, unable to communicate that you love them enough to suffer unseen and unheard with them, just to keep them company they'll never know about

it was then that I truly realized how *superior* the digital medium is to plain printed paper, how the medium and the format can add to a story.

I think about that fic about once a year. I wish I could find it again

EDIT: FOUND IT!!!! UPDATE HERE

I kept debating how to end this short little mini comic. In the original script, they were gonna hold hands (scandalous, I know lmfao), but I didn't think it hit quite right in comic format when I tried to make it longer. Hence why it ends... like that.

Anyways I wrote like a ton of comic scripts for COTL comics that just didn't hit right / I couldn't commit to making and then when driving home from work last week in the pitch darkness I thought about how nice it is to see like actual stars. And I feel like with the cult grounds being kind of among a lot of trees and all that it might take a short hike to get a really, really, really good view of the night sky and stuff. Thus. This.

It's arguably not my best work (I'm out of practice drawing good night skies and all that) but I'm happy with it. Enjoy this thing I made

[ID in ALT] I've made posts before about Talia/Dick co-parenting Damian moments (will never happen but let me dream) and this came to me in a vision. Took me ages to finish for some reason 😭 and then even longer to post

So, I know I'm a little (very) late to the AvA stuff, but I was rewatching AvM Season 3 for the seven hundredth time and, well, I noticed something and I'm curious to know if it's been discussed before.

AvM Episode 29, Purple's story, specifically, Pink's death.

Her color changes as she dies, or is represented to have died.

It fades to grey.

Now, the question is, can we, or rather should we, use this to infer anything lore-related? Was this just an artistic choice to depict the act of becoming unhealthy/dying, or could this be what actually happens to stick figures that die over a period of time? Are their colors linked to their health?

Let's have a bit of fun with it, and presume that the fading of one's color can happen to a stick figure for health-related reasons, as the scene could imply.

This fading seems to involve loosing the saturation of one's color into grey. Saturation is how vibrant a color is, and the complete lack of saturation is greyscale.

The World-of-Alan reason for Pink's death is that she 'got sick', which is where the health connection of this theory comes from. If she did loose her color as she was dying as the notes depict, that loss of color was likely a result of her failing health rather than any other factors, like age or outside variables. A whole bunch of human body stuff are indicators for good vs poor health, including skin color (jaundice and cyanasis are good examples) so why not a stick's color for them?

What if, when they fully die, they lose all of their original color?

Now, let me propose this…

Who else do we know of who has had their color loose vibrancy?

What if Victim's color has lightened because he's ill?

if there's one thing about classic literary detectives it's that they are not conventionally attractive. doyle told sidney paget to stop drawing holmes so pretty. christie was like "let me introduce you to this short pudgy balding man who is retirement age and i hate him." sayers compares wimsey to maggots on literally the FIRST PAGE

i love it. i love them. stop casting hot people in these roles. we need our detectives to be Charmingly Weird-Looking

Another Otsutsuki?!

we’re messing up the timeline for this one. (I lost this crack idea but then it came back… the abyss stare back and I jumped in.)
