Actually you know what, I'm gonna post this. Check it out, I'm fiddling with this PMV. Spoils the whole game ofc. And the name of the song is pure imagination by Fiona Apple!

Also I'm apparently a big fan of drawing moon laying down 😂 total count including scrapped drawings is 5 (technically 6)

i can't stop listening to the 'purpose is glorious' track from this season's ost and thinking about how lovely the title and its meaning are. it's just such an amazing underlying theme in this show, and - while i do have criticisms about some of the choices made for the series finale - i really do feel the writers wholeheartedly delivered in sending that message home. for me personally, loki's ending is so gratifying and a large part of that is solely from viewing their arc's conclusion with the perspective of this theme in mind. to have spent years watching this character i hold very dear to my heart struggle to find belonging, to feel as though they matter and there is reason in their existence, finally get a chance to show - and recognize - their worth was so, so rewarding. and honestly, i think the message behind the phrasing of 'purpose is glorious' is all the more meaningful because of how loki's arc finished. yes, the outcome was bittersweet; yes, we're left knowing loki didn't get the happiness they undeniably earned after everything they'd gone through. it smarts something fierce to know their journey up until they deviated from their timeline and became a variant, as well as seen their eventual intended fate. the ache is only worsened after witnessing everything that happens within the TVA and the entirety of loki's character growth leading up to a redefining moment where they willingly choose to undergo a nightmarish amount of time in the endeavor to do the right thing. of course we want them to emerge victorious when they've struggled for so long, but that's not the point. loki's final moments are them forfeiting their right to a happy ending to preserve the stories of others because all stories matter and should inherently reserve the free will to be written; as sylvie says, loki makes their choice so their loved ones and life across the multiverse still have a chance to belong somewhere and embrace their place in the world. the take away is that even burden can be glorious. even with all the hardships of life - all the inevitable heartache, disappointment, and grief we encounter just by being alive - we have meaning in our existence. there is meaning in the trials we face, and the suffering we endure in order to overcome them. our pain gives us purpose; it gives us the ability to love, to grow from and for each other, and choose to sacrifice our happiness for the benefit of another. loki's purpose was forged in the bonds of those they met in their time at the TVA and the sense of value they gained from their companionship. their sacrifice perfectly conveys how the human capacity to love is one of cosmic greatness, which can ultimately surpass our instinctual desire to preserve one's self. we can move immovable mountains and challenge insurmountable adversity in behalf of the ones we love and their welfare. if that isn't an act deserving of glory, I don't know what is.

tldr; loki's purpose is the friends they made along the way = as the saying goes, 'tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all'. or: our own lives have purpose because of the connections we share with others, even when we are met with great loss.

Another Izzy Hands Bingo 2024 fic finally posted, this one to fill the prompt 'secret admirer!'

Also the first proper horror/thriller fic I've written in a bit, so do mind the TWs that I've noted in the fic summary.

To give you a bit from said summary: Ned's moved away. Izzy's moved too, even if he's still in the same city. But Ned's nowhere near his new flat, and he's safe enough. Until he isn't, and the nightmare starts anew, in a horrifying and mysterious new way.

Also, are you willing to say what script you wrote?

I did a feature length adaptation of very roughly the first 6 books of The Aeneid.

What I did was the fall of Troy (literally the night the city fell is when it starts), following Aeneas getting his family out of Troy, realizing his wife has fallen behind, and being stopped by Aphrodite (his mom, if you don't know mythology- and I used Greek names because the Romans wouldn't exist for another 500 years or so).

It focuses on the surviving Trojans escape to the fledgling Carthaginean empire and Aeneas' romance with Dido coming on the heels of his wife's death (and noting it took several months to get to Carthage, but not including those adventures or mentions of them), and the conflict being stirred up by Hera against Aeneas via Anna.

Act 3 is the Trojans escaping Carthage, Aeneas' abandonment of Dido, her death, and the curse she lays on the Trojan descendants, with a final set of end cards that reveal to the audience that Aeneas' descendants are the founders of Rome itself, which annihilated Carthage in the Punic Wars.

That way, it ends on a note that's satisfying for the viewers, but also plugs neatly in to a sequel if approved (the entire Aeneid would be done as a trilogy).

The professor told me Day 1 of class when I said that was what I wanted to write that it was going to be impossible to impress her with my script, because mythology adaptations were stale and formulaic.

And on the last day of class, she announced that I was the only student in 20 years of her teaching the course to receive a perfect score on the final draft.

Gosh, I still remember when Terminal Velocity posted their Megaman X video and everyone in the community (all 10 of us) lost our frickin MINDS. It was so good and so funny and so well-animated, and frickin LUCAS GILBERTSON reprised his role as Zero just for this video (and then there was that little ZeroX bit at the end that left us all in shambles for weeks).

I frickin miss the MMX days man. Yeah, we were always starved for content, but we had such a fun little community and it was so much fun writing fanfic and tormenting friends with sad AUs and gushing about robots with Juliana Wint and Saling and everyone. I miss thattttttt.
