So there's an actual in game reason you can't get lynel weapons anymore??

So I was looking over the monster statues, just examining the design, when I notice something I'd seen but never really twigged:

Those are nuts and bolts. Huh. That's not natural, that's been added on. In fact, you can still see part of the original scratchy lynel horn from botw underneath, even if it has mutated a bit like all the other horned monsters.

See, lynels, with lizalfos in a lesser way, are the only enemies in the game with the intelligence and cunning to forge weapons. A lizal can only manage one boomerang, shield or bow with varying spikes and occasionally repurpose some hylian armour (and often loot anyway), but lynels are capable of creating their own unique metals and using it to completely outfit themselves. Armour, bows, shields, spears, clubs, and swords, complete with sheaths and harnesses and decoration!

But in totk the particularly pointy ones are missing, leaving only shields, armour, and bows. Their weapons were subject to the Decay as well, but instead of trying to use them anyway, what did they do? They broke down their own weapons and repurposed them as enhancements to their own horns! Extra defence and a new devastating attack!

But... For what reason? They could have kept using those weapons just fine, everyone else is! It probably would have been more practical to start attaching things to the end, like the goblins have all started doing (albeit with mixed results, they seem to inordinately favour mushrooms). Why would the most feared enemy in the game feel the need to put more points into defence and intimidation, even sometimes utilising the rock armour?

What would they be feeling the need to so strongly defend from, even to the point of sacrificing huge attack power over it?

...

Link. It's Link.

The 5 nothing hero of hyrule, who built a whole community of speed running, styling on, brutally murdering lynels almost exclusively again and again and again. Moldugas, hinox, talus, they haven't changed a bit! They weren't at the center of every flashy slow mo clip since the first game came out!

But lynels in totk are running scared, they're building bigger horns to look scarier and armour to hide in, because once they need to get their short range weapons out its already over, or maybe link will just stop farming them for top tear weapons XD.

Tldr: unlike other monsters, which have branched out to kidnapping, riding flying monsters and rolling big spiky balls, lynels have gone entirely the other direction in order to try and scare the hero off after the last round of stylish massacres, and attached their old decayed gear to their horns.

Tldr tldr: botw link is the reason you can't get lynel weapons in totk because he scared them too much.

Even if you don't agree with incarcerated people having access to education, monetary compensation for work, or whatever, I really hope you acknowledge that so long as you provide the state incentive to imprison people (free labour or whatever it may be), the state will continuously imprison people - especially for non-violent crime.

Umbrella Academy Appreciation Week Day 1: Favorite Character

fashion brand company sells this dress printed with dr evil's monologue from when hes talking to the therapist and its great. i mean its a really swell piece and certainly a personally coveted one. but every time i see it im struck with the desire to own an item of clothing emblazoned with the full text of the ginger ale scene from 2008 11-dollar budget student film eagles are turning people into horses (available in its entirety on youtube) . but the thing about 2008 11-dollar budget student film eagles are turning people into horses directed by brian mcelhaney and filmed over the course of just 48 hours is its not a cultural staple. nobody thinks oh lets sit down and watch a movie and searches up that film about eagles who turn people into horses on youtube. yet another example of societys pure hostility towards envelope-pushing art

My favorite thing to do after I finished a show is to go back to the first few episodes and rewatch them. To see the characters, I've just spent hours and hours getting to know and see grow, at their first appearance. They're so different, they've changed so much.

I just saw this on twitter and immediately jumped to post it on here because this is EXACTLY how I view Watari in relation to the Wammy House project. He does care about orphans, we know that from the fact that he's founded and funded dozens of normal orphanages around the world, but the genius children at Wammy's House are the sacrifices; the ones who are indoctrinated into either seeing justice/competition as their reason d'etre or groomed in a way that'll make them want to live up to Watari's expectations no matter the consequences. It's no surprise that Watari brings all of them directly to Wammy's House when they're at their most traumatized and most malleable; many of them (if not the majority) wouldn't have chosen this way of life/thinking if they hadn't been raised in it and praised for it. That's why they're all willing to die for the cause and why some of them are even willing to kill for it, that's why everyone at Wammy's House is obsessed with either L or Watari, that's why it's been stated that "once a Wammy's kid, they're always going to be a Wammy's kid"
