#elemental moment

Asharact Saga time guys! This essentially one of my (many) oc universes.

It’s been around for a while now (since 2020) and the characters and plot has gone through a ton of changes

(Lore copied from toyhous lol)

The story takes place on the continent of Asharcat, which is made up of 7 nations (formerly 8): Huranto, Delta, Sparks, Elocae, Glacia, Nephriss, and Xeinteria, with Lovat being the former eighth. Each nation is led by a singular ruler, with noble houses and government officials that aid them through their reign.

Each nation represents one element; Huranto with geo/earth, Delta and water, Sparks and fire, Elocae and lightning, Glacia and ice, Nephriss and wind, and Xeinteria and darkness/death.

The story is centered around the "War of Ends", a war taking place during the 57th generation's reign. Silvanus Hyde, the King of Xeinteria declares war on Huranto, led by Sparrow Luhya, with the goal of demolishing the monarchy system and reuniting all nations. The other nations are not only forced to choose sides but also gradually join the fight.

The current 57th generation consists of: sparrow Luhya, Silvanus Hyde, Darya Jendrsik, Agni Videgain, Fei Ambrose-Barnett, Remiel Yates, and Yukio Adachi

Refs cuz ye ^^^

This is probably the most developed of universe I have. I have a on going slide show for these guys that is already like 90 slides long. Just a ton of lore, character profiles, and history! I have to hold back the urge to just drop everything at once. Gotta split every bit of lore into tiny pieces and drop it bit by bit.

Since I can write sm more on here, I could probably elaborate on lore more?

Gonna share sm from this universe later (gotta share Elaine, the triplets and Aeterna!)

Ok bee bye guys

Elemental of Energy

But also bonus:

Elemental of ✨G R E E N✨

I think a lot about Leo’s tendency to push his way into the spotlight despite clearly being a natural in the shadows. Hell, you could argue that his worst moments are when he’s forcing himself onstage, and his best are when he does things no one notices until it’s already been done.

[zookie-art]

How about that finale huh? 😭💚

The rest is confetti.

Had a particularly violent revelation about what AFOhouse reminds me of a couple days ago and decided I had to make this.

Slightly enamoured by the idea that Bruce leaves Clark secret, romantic messages microscopically encoded in the punctuation of reports he gives him, under the pretense of Clark checking them over.

dead boy detectives is a show whose shortcomings and strengths make total sense when you think of it as a comic on tv, ie terribly goofy expository dialogue that sounds way better when you picture it in comic book font with every other word bolded, panel-paced conversation as our heroes figure out something very obvious, fun enormous monster set pieces that used up all the cgi budget which is why all the rooftop shots look Like That, incredible snap zooms and smash cuts in montages that hit exactly like comic panels, and side characters with bland or brilliant characterization that seems to hinge on the metric of ‘how much cunt did the actor put into their line readings’

Hey anyone else remember the episode of Adventure Time called "Evergreen" where it's revealed that the original bearer of the crown to whom it was "forever linked" was actually a neglected child (and prior reincarnation of Finn) named Gunter trying to be like his wizard father?? Anyone??? Because I had fully forgotten until re-watching the episode last night and I'm losing my mind about the implications.

(This episode is also a devastating look at how a mistreated child unconsciously learns that he must treat himself and those he has power over as cruelly as he has been treated. Adventure Time has so much sadness and madness, y'all.)

They scan my brain and it’s just me rotating this sequence from one of the bonus comics for Dungeon Meshi in horror

really love how throughout a lot of smith and jones martha is really skeptical and apprehensive towards ten (+ one of my favorite exchanges between them - "what, people call you 'the doctor'?" "yeah?" "well, i'm not. far as i'm concerned, you've got to earn that title."), not taking everything he says at face value, even doubting the fact he's an alien until over halfway through the episode.. And like. i really truly think the thing that wins her over isn't him kissing her or any of the other insane mixed messages he manages to send, it's this scene here, where he /earns that title/ in her eyes:

(+ david's bit in the commentary, where he says: "[the doctor] has actually sacrificed himself, and - i would say, that that final act of selflessness is what finally, eventually, welds martha to him. [...] and she now returns it. she returns that act of selflessness.")

this is what their relationship is built on. it isn't about martha being the second-best replacement to rose or a rebound or whatever. bc it isn't really about rose. it's about doctor-in-training martha meeting someone (quite literally, "the doctor") whose ideals she aspires to, and doing her best to be the same person to him as he is to everyone else. it's about ten in return admiring her intelligence and inquisitiveness and how she cares for human life, recovering his compassion, letting himself lean on her for support - and then remembering at the most inopportune moments that he's supposed to not need anyone and be on his own forever. And around in their little nightmare loop they go where they save each other over and over until one of them breaks

i've seen ppl look at martha and go "why she does she admire/why is she so in love with ten if he acts like that to her?" or something along those lines and like. it's not just the fact she's in love with him (in fact i'd argue she actively tries to push it aside post-gridlock). it's the fact that she knows he's the kind of person to put everyone else's lives/well-being over his own. she trusts him to save her when she's in trouble even though it's been like two days at most that they've known one another bc she recognizes that same "deep all-encompassing drive to help others" in him. and she also recognizes, much much earlier than him, that he needs someone to save him, especially when he's unwilling to save himself. and yeah for a bit she thinks he returns her feelings and is just playing hard-to-get, but she realizes pretty early on that this probably isn't the case, and i think that realization fully solidifies here:

(this is when she's listening to ten talk abt gallifrey). And idk it might just be me but i think this expression isn't just her empathizing with his loss. it's also guilt, for wanting something from him that he's clearly unable to give when he's wracked with so much grief. (and you see it in the next episode, where tallulah asks if they're together and martha says for certain that they're not, and that he doesn't know about her feelings for him. she keeps everything to herself bc she now knows that when he shut her flirting down at the end of 3x01 it was the genuine reaction of someone who a) isn't interested and b) is scared of getting close with someone else again)

freema described their dynamic as "she's keener than him" and i think about this all the time. martha doesn't really take what ten throws at her. what she does instead is constantly poke holes in his already-failing front of "i will show someone the wonders of the universe so i can ignore what is wrong with me". what she does is stand up and fight him when he tries to go off on his own. what she does is put aside her well-being in favor of helping someone - just like what she saw him do for the people in the hospital when they first met. tldr, that's the doctor and his doctor and rip martha you would've loved who's gonna save u now by rina sawayama

sometimes he gets a bit homesick

I think we should put more emphasis on how Akutagawa's love is killing him. Descriptions of his feelings for Atsushi should draw from death imagery more. Atsushi's smile is devastatingly beautiful to Akutagawa. His laughter is lethal. Atsushi's touch feels scorching hot. When he's near, the air around becomes unbreathable. He hugs Akutagawa, and Akutagawa feels like his bones are being crushed under those new and overwhelming feelings. Akutagawa drowning in Atsushi's eyes, sinking in his embrace. Akutagawa's love for Atsushi is piercing, painful, Akutagawa's heart is wounded and bleeding. Akutagawa is smitten. All contributing to represent how Akutagawa's love for Atsushi is going to be the end for him. And it was! And he is doomed by his very love, by his very ability of feeling human emotions. Akutagawa's love for Atsushi is going to be the reason he dies.

A HAUNTING IN VENICE (2023)

Based on Hallowe'en Party by Agatha Christie

[hrtgallant]

the funniest thing about the potc films is that they accidentally crafted a character of truly shakespearean complexity in james norrington. unironically, he's one of the most compelling tragic heroes in film and his epic battle with the story he's in culminates in the absolutely perfect ending

[happistar]

Nobody in the tags is talking abt the moment in the latest ep where john immediately breaks the fourth wall after saying he wouldn’t. Dumb as shit joke, absolutely loved it
