#going to the lake

[if-you-fan-a-fire]

"Le lac des Castors," La Patrie. July 25, 1943. Cover. ---- Des foules nombreuses se rendent tous les dimanches au lac des Castors, au mont Royal. Ce ac constitue un attrait pour toute la population. Au peint de vue paysagiste, c'est une perle.

Pour fournir l'eau courante au lac des Castors, on a foré un puits artésien. L'eau est amenee au lac par une pompe actionnee par l'electricite. Ici des enfants s'amusent prés de la cascade qui tombe dans le lac.

Les parents, qui vont passer de belles heures au lac des Castors, ne manquent pas d'y amener leurs enfants. Même les plus petits s'y amusent et s’intéressent aux petits voiliers et aux canards blancs.

going INSANE. what is he thinking. why did he say this. why does he do all of this. i am thinking so hard.

we know he's seeking arceus to recreate the world bc in his eyes the world is cruel and unjust and it needs to be destroyed and remade. he's set himself on a mission to create the better reality he's envisioned for his whole life.

but everything else he does. the way he spends his time on pasio making people smile with togepi. even if he justifies it as something purely transactional to get more customers, we know he doesn't really take his merchant job seriously. the way he loves his pokemon so much that they will pop out of their pokeball to excitedly tell whoever will listen how much they love volo back. him trying to capture these moments of happiness tangibly because they never last long and can be wiped away any second.

he still hangs onto hope so much despite what's implied to have happened to him. in spite of all the anger and bitterness that's festered in him, he doesn't really want to destroy everything as he says.

it all started with a wish for the world to be a better place, for the good in the world to outweigh all the cruelty. he's still trying to spread what happiness he can.

but at the same time his past drags behind him and reminds him that he can't afford to trust in the goodness of the world.

that self-assigned mission to usurp arceus's power and rewrite everything.. to him, it's his duty now. he has to do it for himself and, as he rationalizes to himself, for the world.

so he ignores the flaws and holes he finds in his own reasoning. he can't help but seek out the brightness and happiness and goodness that does exist in the world, yet he has to dismiss it to justify his goals.

... all this to try and explain to myself why volo's asking all these questions and making all these comments that seem to go against what we'd expect given his ulterior motive and plans. and it's like he's asking the few friends he has to remember him as the one who seeks joy, even when he does the worst to fulfill his dreams

Alright I’ve been promising a face reveal/Genderbent Ahab cosplay for a while now and I’m finally delivering

I went looking for those Great Lakes whales

I didn’t see any, but I know those motherfuckers are out there (that’s what I’m thinking in that last pic)
