i love how eeltail has a distinct lack of the green radioactive koolaid water that you would've normally seen in the other big run maps so everytime the time tide changes it makes it feel that the salmonids are going like "well shit that plan didn't work let's try it again from a different angle"

I figured we weren't going to convince them that Gortash is the problem and quite frankly I didn't have time for this.

You Can't Change The Rolling Tide

by LiveLaughLoveLarry / @loveislarryislove

Louis lives on a tiny island off the coast of England and runs a sailboat touring company. When Niall is sidelined for the summer after his knee surgery, Louis needs a temporary new partner. Who better to fill that role than Harry, recently returned to the island after five years away? Louis is pretty sure there are plenty of better options. They don't get along until they do. Harry is bent over a thick book when Louis crawls into the tent. “Some light reading before bed?” he asks, his voice light. Harry looks up. “Hmm? Oh, uh, I guess.” He holds up the book to show the cover: a guide to the plants and animals of the area. Louis owns several himself, but doesn’t recognize this one – perhaps a new edition? “Trying to learn something I don’t know?” he says. He means to say it teasingly, but it comes out almost sharp, and Harry stills. Guilt settles in Louis’ stomach, replacing the knot of insecurity and competitiveness that had sparked there moments earlier. “I don’t know about that,” Harry says. “I just find it interesting. And I figure this is a good time to learn as much as I can. I’ve learned a lot from you these past weeks.”

Midnight: Aizawa's sleeping bag must be really sturdy since it never rips when they do that...

AllMight: Yeah & Aizawa must be pretty strong to hoist Mic up like that...

Midnight: Well, cover your ears... he's getting close...

Mic: *hoisted to top of UA flagpole in Aizawa's sleeping bag*

Mic: ATTENTION STUDENTS & STAFF IT'S TIME FOR YOUR AFTERNOON ANNOUNCEMENTS!!!

Zhehddbbs idea of showing Gorm (and any of your ocs that didnt know about humans) simple things/concepts that are cool. Science experiments like liquids of different densities with different colors reacting to each other, elements that glow a color when burned, baking soda and vinegar volcanoes, making a lightbulb turn on. Basically your blorbos looking in wonder 🫶

Oouuh that's such a cute idea! A projector and a smoothish cliff wall will make sure everyone can see what's going on! Keiki, Gorm and Merry are just openly amazed. :)

Tide's only there because Merry wanted to see the experiments. He ends up finding them fascinating too but he'll never admit it.

Elmer's kinda nervous but also interested in the "magic" going on.

"Let the tides carry you back to me." has always been among one of my favourite lines in Telomeres, and so, having listened to it again recently, a little idea popped into my head. Let me explain:

While ocean tides/currents is a very common metaphor, there's an underlying meaning to it. The ocean is a beautiful, but somewhat cruel place: tides can leave you stranded on a sandbank, or sweap you away before you even know it.

To put it in short, no object or creature that goes into the ocean comes out the same. For the tides to carry something back to you, something you've lost, it will be and always will be changed: eroded.

The cliffside will fall, the cave will crumble, etc etc.

With this in mind, we're yet again greeted with another example of Vessel asking for something he can't truly have. The person he wants will not be the same as they were before; they "collapse" into him, breaking apart, but still, to him, it's "the start of something."

His memory is warped, they are warped, and it'll stay that way.

However, what I would like to add is that, in DYWTYLM, it's theorised that instead of Vessel speaking to a second person, he's instead talking to himself.

Of course, this makes the song itself much more emotional (to me). Finding love for yourself is one of the hardest things you can do, but it has to be done to find love in others.

With that idea (stay with me here), the lyrics "Do you roll with the waves? Or do you duck into deep blue safety?" match up (generally) with Telomeres, which is mostly interpretated as being towards someone else.

So, what if some lines in Telemores are directed to himself as well?

Keep in mind, the tides don't just erode and carry objects (sediment), they also reflect. The Atlantic is one big mirror, and Vessel is staring into it's "deep blue safety" wondering what, or, rather, who, he was before he was Vessel.

Overall, the album name, "This Place Will Become Your Tomb", either being directed at Vessel or Vessel to Sleep (and being a Halo quote lmao), is more metaphorical than literal.

Who he was before Vessel sits in that coffin, not his physical body.
