KIYOTAKAWEEK 2K24 - M IS FOR MERMAID

my style has changed so much since last year LMFAO lets see if i can go through a whole week...

[buggleboos]

do you have more of Sanji + your oc interacting? I find their dynamic really funny.

i colored in some old stupid doodles JUST for u anon.

Bingqiu is so funny to me like,,, you have sexy man turned into an idea of a tumblr sexyman and uh, some guy that watches instagram reels bc “he could never be a TikTok user”

Asdfghjkl that's exactly what they are. No wonder they're so popular on tumblr XD. Sqq is that one reddit user who swears every week that he's leaving this toxic hole for good and you know you'll find him mere hours later arguing pedantry on some incredibly niche sub reddit.

And he's somehow gay married to a guy who underwent an irl sans verse swap with his evil version. Who is his 'I can fix him' blorbo. His poor little meow meow. Lbh would have an aesthetic tradwife account, you know the ones where there's some scandal about them actually being insanely rich and in some weird marriage? That's him. His recording room that looks like an offshoot of a small cosy traditional cottage is actually a renovated spare room in his palace quarters.

They're that one meme about their braincells cancelling each other out. They're so stupid I love them.

Thanks for the ask :D!

i would like to say my ideal PJO adaptation (if i was being physically forced against my will to have to pick a live action adaptation over an animated one for some reason) would be a combo like writing of the musical + casting of the show + visuals of the movies

BUT the show actually does have the playwright for the musical as one of the major writers for like three episodes and that did nothing for it. so...

Do you have any lore on fish Odysseus because I would love to learn more. Also would you be okay with fanfiction of him?

A wee bit!!! It’s yet to be thought through more but the general idea is that rather than going through the full 10 years of the sea as in the original, Odysseus was blinded and turned to a creature that can’t escape Poseidon’s domain. So even when he managed to break free of the chains Poseidon could keep going after him as he wished. I am debating to keep the Calypso thing and being trapped on the island for 7 or so years still in, maybe she kept him in a pond and released him later on. And once Poseidon is told by the other gods to leave him to go home he does so- then the whole thing with bringing him the sacrifices happens so he’s forgiven. He definitely turned into a fish after Underworld tho.

brambleclaw and my issues with the new prophecy

i recently finished reading through the new prophecy, and. yikes. it was actively a chore to read a lot of the time, especially in the later books. a LOT of the plots and decisions the authors and characters made were frustrating and just bad. there were things about tnp that i liked, but they were heavily outweighed by my irritation at everything else.

before i go into it, i just want to say that this post will not be going into the tribe of rushing water and the racism and native american stereotypes present there. those are very important issues, which i will be delving into in a separate post.

first of all, i know a lot of people do not enjoy the earlier travelling books and the amount of walking happening in them. honestly, that didn't bother me too much. i felt like they did a decent job of having enough interesting character moments and interactions that i wasn't really paying attention to it.

crowfeather is one of my big issues with tnp. as a character, i think he's interesting and mostly well done, if a bit annoying sometimes. i wish they had explored his motivations a bit more. however, as a part of two separate romances that i either don't care about or actively dislike, i'm not a fan.

crowfeather and feathertail are one of those couples that are honestly just there. i think you can read interesting things into their relationship if you consider feathertail's experiences in a shadow in riverclan, but as they are in tnp they're just kind of boring. they're a device to make us care about each of the characters more, and to make it more tragic when she dies.

they're also there so stormfur can be mad at them and get over it because he has a crush of squirrelflight that comes out of nowhere and immediately disappears a couple chapters in to his pov. for some reason. this is an especially stupid plot that i think is absolutely pointless. it does nothing for his character and makes us dislike him for being mad at feathertail for no reason, and then immediately becomes irrelevant when he meets brook two seconds later. they didn't even have any weird love triangle or even any conflict with brambleclaw and squirrelflight, either.

stormfur and brook are also a couple that just exists so that stormfur has a love interest and a reason to stay with the tribe. she has zero personality besides "cute" and "interested in stormfur" and contributes more to the native american stereotypes (which, again, i will get into in another post). she does become slightly more interesting in the later books, but it would have been nice to see something else in the earlier ones as well.

back to crowfeather, it would have been a fine end to his arc to grieve for feathertail, name himself after her, and have to readjust to clan life. however, leafpool needs her forbidden romance (for some reason. please please please erins can we just have one prominent medicine cat who doesn't have a secret affair? yellowfang was the og and the only one that was fine, it got old immediately after that and just continues to be worse) so she gets shoved together with him. they have literally no chemistry. the only times they interact before getting together leafpool is annoyed by him and has zero romantic feelings of any kind. the only thing even resembling buildup is cinderpelt warning leafpool about him on a couple occasions where she genuinely was not interested in him and/or wasn't even looking for him. then crowfeather confesses to her and she's immediately in love with him?? like what?? their relationship after that isn't even shown on screen at all. the only scene we get of them being together and in a relationship is in leafpool's wish. after the entirety of tnp is already over. it's ridiculous.

one thing that i do think was done well about that situation was leafpool feeling isolated and left out by the couples and romance around her. that was actually interesting and good setup, but i think that would have been much better suited to be taken in a different direction. leafpool could have thought she was in love with crowfeather because of her desire for romance and affection, or that he was her only chance to get any of those things. she might have realized when they left the clans that she doesn't actually want this, or crowfeather might have pressured her into leaving so they wouldn't be found out. that angle would be significantly more interesting than their pointless and boring romance that we don't actually see any of. i also think that in this scenario, leafpool would be aromantic, and might just be sexually attracted to crowfeather and mistaking that for romance.

the other option i see is for leafpool to run away with mothwing instead, or at least have a forbidden romance with her instead of crowfeather. they have so so so so so so so so so much more chemistry, and an actually established relationship with on-screen time together. even if mothwing wouldn't abandon her clan, leafpool might have gone to riverclan and midnight could have come there to get help or warn them about the badgers.

my biggest issue with tnp is brambleclaw. in the earlier books, he's fine. he's a pretty standard protagonist who does pretty standard things, like argue with someone who he thinks is annoying and doubt everything he's ever known because he's in warrior cats and that's what they do to their protagonists. i don't really like the way he treats squirrelflight, but she's usually just as much to blame for their trouble as he is.

however, the moment that hawkfrost is introduced, he becomes unbearable. he doubts squirrelflight's intentions and constantly blames her valid concerns on his dad, when she has never and will never think that he's evil because his dad was evil. he does not listen when she tries to talk to him about hawkfrost like a normal person, and dismisses her attempts to make up or start a conversation about it. once he has decided that their issues are her fault, he becomes incredibly awful to her at every opportunity, taking out his power as a warrior when she's an apprentice and his assigned deputy powers once she becomes a warrior. he constantly harasses her and ashfur, when he is just trying to make sure brambleclaw isn't awful to her every second of every day.

even when hawkfrost is part of mudclaw's coup and mudclaw tells him what hawkfrost's intentions were, even when he literally trains with him under their evil dad, brambleclaw trusts his half-brother he barely knows over his best friend/love interest who he's known literally his whole life and went on a life-changing journey with. he also. trains with his evil dad. when the whole time he's been accusing squirrelflight, baselessly, of thinking he's like his dad. and somehow thinks that it's fine and harmless???????? even when tawnypelt tries to snap him out of it????? he is ridiculous and stupid and downright abusive.

on top of all this, when he and squirrelflight finally make up, he never apologizes. never! not once. they have a whole thing where brambleclaw is like "i'm glad we're so close again that we just know the other so well we don't have to apologize or even talk about our previous mistakes or acknowledge that they happened at all", which is patently stupid and and horrible to squirrelflight, again. no wonder squirrelflight doesn't trust him enough to tell him about leafpool's kits. also the fact that firestar forgives him for almost being influenced into murdering him so quickly is ridiculous. he should not go unpunished for that, let alone be allowed to continue to be deputy!

in conclusion, brambleclaw is stupid and forbidden romances are stupid and the new prophecy is just bad. in a lot of respects. not in all of them, but many.

Who has the wooden scythe? (aka Kat goes matpat mode for like 5 minutes)

Expanded version of this post I made on the FailWiki. You might want to sit down. This is a long one. The minecraft hoes scythes are powerful weapons wielded by members of c!Failboat’s family. Using this weapon as a conduit, one can use the magic plot device cube Power of the Scythe to travel the multiverse and shapeshift and also whatever other broken abilities the writer wants to attribute to it.

Failboat has the golden scythe, Wincar has the diamond scythe, and Failwhale has the stone scythe, and also the netherite scythe… hey wait a minute, netherite didn’t exist in 2012. Also that is not an easily explainable upgrade at all. What’s going on here?! Anyways, that is a can of worms for tomorrow or the day after that, probably. The last two scythes, iron and wood, do not have a user attributed to them. (A while back it said on the wiki that Moom Mom had the iron scythe, which makes.. not a lot of sense, but that trivia point has since disappeared off the wiki, so I think it’s safe to say that isn’t canon.)

Buuuuut there are two other players that show up for like two small snapshots in Failwhale’s flashback during Divergence301, so I think we know who has those. Or had.

oh hey we’ve answered the question in the title. Purple hoodie guy has the wooden scythe, and by process of elimination that would mean the person with the green hoodie who shows up shortly after this, their dad, wielded the iron scythe. You may be thinking that this is the end of the post, and you can go on with your day now, but-

No. No you cannot. By the way, I tied you to that chair while you weren’t looking, reader. If you want to avoid having to listen to my yapping, simply never go within sight of me ever again.

I assume we are on the same page about that. Anyways, the second question I would like to answer in this crazy rambling session is, what happened to this guy? And by extension, does he have anything to do with Failwhale becoming the worst person in the Failboat Cinematic Universe?

We see purple hoodie guy for just two scenes in Divergence, and that is literally all the canon information on him we ever get. Originally, something centering around Failwhale’s past appears to have been planned after Divergence, but that never came to fruition.

Here’s the second snapshot, by the way.. huh. I don’t think something happened to purple hoodie guy, rather, he did something to someone else. That something could have turned Failwhale into the person he is now, so unfortunately I need to do a bit of character analysis on him now..

All we really have to work with is that Failwhale is a horrible waste of oxygen, and he’s really really intent on keeping the Power of the Scythe for himself. What if purple hoodie guy somehow took the PotS from Failwhale and did some unspeakable crime (like oh, I dunno, killing their dad) or did something while Failwhale couldn’t use the PotS/had lost it somehow? Or maybe something did actually happen to purple hoodie guy, and like in the other two scenarios Failwhale wasn’t able to use the PotS to prevent it. In any case, after the fact, Failwhale would think that if he had been able to use it, then whatever trauma happened would not have occurred.

Where is purple hoodie guy now? Who knows. He might be dead, he might not. I think that c!Failboat should be wary if he runs into someone who wears a purple hoodie, wields a wooden scythe, and looks a bit like his dad, though. Who knows what that guy could do..

btw i think for tadc discussion posts where i ramble abt the show (be it analysis or meta stuff or just me thinking abt it) im just gonna start using the tag Circus Discussion... i was thinking of that tag for a while and it still feels too silly but also its the only one i can think of that isnt SUPER silly. plus its vague enough so i can use it for a wider variety of posts (cus some things i dont think anything like 'analysis' or 'meta' would actually fit, cus its not alwaays really either of those, so i think discussion is more broadly applicable). im gonna work on tagging posts w this cus i have a bit to sort thru :] (this blog has 654 posts and will have 655 when i post this)

[lieutenantselnia]

I'm currently unsure whether I should be happy or stressed about the fact that there are only like 5 more weeks until the end of the semester - on one hand the summer holidays can't arrive fast enough so I can rest and have free time again but on the other hand there's still so much to finish within that time frame and ugh I'm just tired😵‍💫

At least today (or more like yesterday by the time I post this) I had a fun day, I went to a wildlife park with friends (a trip we've had planned since a couple weeks already), I'm sure I haven't been to the place in like a decade but it was really fun! I didn't think to take a lot of pictures of the animals, but here's a plush trout I got at the souvenir shop🐟
