"Encounters are like books. And rivers. You never put your foot in the same one twice, a Greek philosopher said. And you never climb the same mountain twice. It’s different, like reading Pinocchio at age ten and reading it at age fifty."

luca marinelli character FIGHT: Round One Part One

ARGUMENTS (spoilers below, and feel free to reblog with your own!):

Gabriele:

only one who seems to know what he's doing on a boat despite almost all of waves taking place on a boat, even if he is largely clueless about everything else

DOES kill a man despite appearances (and steals his stuff, based on how you view it)

one of two characters to actually survive and the other is barely a character anyway

he means a lot to me

Diabolik:

kills a lot of people. a Lot

the phrase "meeting diabolik means meeting death" is repeated like 3 times in the movie, so he's got that going for him

HORRIBLE person but he's fun to make fun of

manipulate mansplain malewife!!

his hair isn't THAT bad you're all just mean

Mod Comment: watch waves 2012 today

The title definitely is way harsher than Atle said it in his direct quote (he adds "...and I understand him"), further into the article. Also him saying that they can't be practising together anymore is, on its own, pretty much non-judgmental, after all they don't practice with the French or the Italians either. But I very much commend the journalist of vg and hope they'll join tumblr and/or ao3 one day bc I looove their vision.

so me and Sam FINALLY watched the last season of Capaldi's Who

and tell me how, after literally over a decade and for perhaps the first time in his fucking career, Steven Moffat wrote a not just tolerable but really actually good two-parter and fully stuck the landing. like the editing and pacing were still a bit off but the storyline was original, fun, interesting and emotionally invested, and most importantly, rather than ending on a damp fart or the most furious autofellatio in history, the final part didn't fumble it and ended in a way that felt emotionally satisfying and like it made sense for the characters. like the last time he successfully wrapped up a multiparter in a way that didn't feel cheap and hollowly disappointing to me was literally The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances, and a) that was in 2005 and b) tbh The Doctor Dances is about a tenth as compelling and memorable as The Empty Child.

so after 12 years of either hackery or great ideas that fall apart in the second act, Steven Moffat writes what I would genuinely consider to be a memorable Good Doctor Who serial. it ends with bittersweet pathos, a solid closer for all the main characters, and sends Moffat's showrunning career out on a genuine high despite failing ratings and budget cuts (and the fact Doctor Who hasn't been consistently good since about 2009). good job Steve. with grudging respect I admit you pulled it out of the bag on this one.

wait what's this there's one more episode left? and it stars Mark Gatiss? and you literally spend the whole episode inexplicably just shitting all over the legacy of Doctor Who by inventing a version of the First Doctor that bears literally no resemblance to the character that William Hartnell actually played, just so you can spend the whole episode saying misogynistic things to run yourself off to how much more Totally Feminist your version was than the version you made up in your head of what Doctor Who was like in the 60s? and it added literally nothing to the season except to take all the wind out of the sails of the actually good finale you already wrote?

even when he writes a good episode this fucker still finds ways to disappoint me.

A letter from prison

My love, another letter from me, seeing as I’m stuck in here. You might think that being in solitary means silence. On the contrary, the row of cells here is full of noise, echoing with cries and clanks of metal.

This afternoon I imagined I was in a sailing boat out at sea. The daylight hours were shortening, the air cooler, the direction north. Days without wind, no movement in latitude or longitude, days skewered stiff as if by a butterfly collector. I refused to go out into the exercise yard for a breath of air. So I stayed in my cabin and gazed at the maps on the ceiling.

I recollect the years when I was locked up in cells with prisoners who toiled to turn them into studio apartments. Then the guards tossed them and turned them back into cells. It's better in solitary. There’s nothing to gather up nor put back in place. In here, you forget about being a body in this world.

In here, there’s a pile of reasons to stop believing in things. My solution is to stop believing in the cell.

I know you've drawn Lucas, but what about Ness? If you're up for it, could you draw them meeting? I know they're not from exactly the same game, but it'd still be silly to see them meet. :)

Here is a ness and him meeting Lucas for the first time!!

I headcanon that Lucas only knows Japanese while Ness only knows English, so the first time they talk is tense and awkward. Eventually they start to understand each other through hand gestures and body language, neither really gets a grasp of each other's language. But, they manage just fine as time goes on :]

also sorry for such simple drawings anon!! i'll probably draw them goofing off another time, but it's late where i am, and i just took sleeping meds ^^" Thank you for the request!!

[Start ID: Three simple drawings on an off white canvas. At the top centre is a drawing of Ness looking at the camera with his eyes close sticking out his tongue. The two bottom drawings are of Ness and Lucas, the first drawing has both looking away from each other with the text between them reading: First meeting. The following drawing is of ness asking Lucas a question but Lucas looking confused. Under Lucas reads: Only knows Japanese and under Ness reads: Only knows English. End ID.]
