(via A new hope has just begun)

Andrew pulls William and Elizabeth behind his back. He didn't know who could've been approaching. But after a while, he realized these weren't human footsteps. Instead, he heard claws scratching along the dirt as whatever was making those noises approached closer.

RedMaigc Commission

Red was skeptical about VR. He couldn't believe it was as "real" as people said it was. It was just looking at a glorified computer screen, right?! Three hours in and he already feels engrossed... and engorged. He's certainly not expecting what'll happen when he takes off his headset. ~~~~~ Commission for RedMaigc ~~~~~ Red (C) RedMaigc Art (C) Me

Months have passed since Hyrule was saved. Things are settling down and stabilizing. Its almost summer, yet...Blue can't seem to shake the cold of winter. A part of him knows that its from being frozen months ago, but the other part is still denying it. Until the others start to prod him into figuring it out.

Dread consumes him, at the results of his little 'journey.' He is shaken to his core.

This wasn’t supposed to happen!!

Here is that fic I teased, like, a week ago!

writing is such a magical thing someone can do like. how do you write what how how could you make stories about some guys and write them i could never

[covertblizzard]

i know most of these aren't actual foreshadowing because his death isn't even planned at this point but the accidental foreshadowing / warnings of jason's death

The ones I have no comments on, they're very on-the-nose in a sense (although many were probably not intentional).

“I was a fool to call out for him... he’s so obsessed with proving himself... that he’s liable to plunge straight into death!”

“Wanting to impress Bruce is one thing-- but I can do without his tears at my funeral.”

“I’m Robin and being Robin give me maigc. It saw Dick Grayson to a pretty ripe age--”

“By replacing the fears with a different fear... the most terrible fear I could conceive.” (in the background, Bruce’s imagination of a tombstone that says “Here lies Jason Todd, 1974-1986, Murdered by the Scarecrow”)

Jason’s near death after an encounter with the Mad Hatter. The quotes “... my beginning... and my probable end.” and “There is no hope in Crime Alley.” both ring particularly haunting.

Some imagery (not all of them when Jason is near death).

I do wish you would make the joker pay for the blood of a boy. I missed when he was willing to kill for jason lmao

His determination to stop the drift between himself and Jason and to be there for the boy (can he bring this energy back for post-death Red Hood Jason also please?)

And of course, one of the most devastating, Jason stopping him from killing the Joker.

Also the Joker nearly killing the first Robin (+ more imagery)

MAGIC ATTRIBUTE: Light magic (?)

GRIMOIRE: Four leaf clover

BACKSTORY: Elaine Lou, she is the youngest child of the Lou household, she is actually a product of her father affair with a maid, Evangeline, her mother died of childbirth, everyone in the house knows but no one is allowed to talk about it in and outside the house, the only person who knows and isn't part of or works for the Lou house is her best friend Ruby Beaumont, who Elaine told during a breakdown when they were younger. They act like a normal family of nobility at social events, but no one except Ruby is aware of the way she is treated inside the house, the servants love her but she was often the object of Ron's tricks when they were little, of Sophia mistreatment, and of Philip indifference. Despite studying with Ron and living with them, she doesn't eat with them and passes more time helping out the servants, that's why they love and cherish her, and also because they took pity on her, especially the head maid and the butler, she is the one who teaches her the way around the house and he is the one who insisted with her father to give her an appropriate education, because he saw her learning speed. She dreams of becoming a Magic knight to escape from that house she'd been imprisoned since her birth, because despite being despised by her family, they couldn't let the possibility of staining the Lou name out in the open. Her dream stops at becoming a Maigc knight, she never thought beyond that, what she will do after becoming a Maigc knight, is still to be discovered...

Vampire Brat character. Feeds on other peoples discomfort. Has the most uncomfortable healing maigc in existance, blood weaving. Basically reversing whatever got you injured, so you can feel the pain again. but in reverse. Great healer, but no offensive capabilities to speak of.

Umineko EP3. Replay Part 3

She probably expected it but giving out so much of her trauma away just to not even be believed must have hurt a bit...

Yeah...

Again, obviously using this story as a device to talk about herself. K Beatrice never really considered suicide like that, the one that did was Yasu. The way the story says that Kinzo and Beatrice's love is one-sided is interesting - that's not how its portrayed in ep7, though I can imagine that's how Yasu saw it, due to how her life was fucked up by Kinzo.

The referring of Kinzo as mage/magician/blacksmith is pretty interesting to me. I think it shows how yes a complete dismissal of 'maigc' we see in Battler and later Erika is bad and can hurt people who need help the complete enabling that Genji and others did of Kinzo's magic is bad, too.

B-batler theres another more obvious and clear definition of the "miracle of creating life" here stop getting frustrated!

There are like a hundred million hints here Battler! No wonder Beatrice is starting to get frustrated with you. The only bigger hint she could give at this time is basically force-feeding the answer.

Awkard phrasing considering that's not even true aside - you can tell how their dynamic has changed a bit by now. By this point at the last chapter Battler was talking about how she was evil and would never accept her.

He's starting to get it but then he forces himself out of taking the story seriously.... Ronove tries to get him back on track though.

Woah I didn't realize they gave actual dates here... honestly, I don't have the timeline of events 100% clear in my mind on certain stuff so maybe I should work on that with this reread....

He's able to get the general gist back, though! Thanks, Ronove!

Ronove chastises him for trying to use Beatrice as a sacrificial piece here too - obviously a hint that we should look into the people he loves.

Here is Rosa basically talking about the time she heavily considered suicide and then there's her brother and her sister making fun of her for 1. Not trying harder and 2. Being a failure at what she likes. I sit really any surprise Rosa ended up as fucked up as she is?

Man, this so fucked up.... not allowed to know anything, completely stuck inside one man's delusions....

I think the fact in this episode you spend time with a younger Rosa and Eva a very interesting a necessary choice for the game - here you meet an Eva before the realization that her dreams will never become true and a Rosa before she was thrust into adulthood with a million unresolved traumas and no support system - I think this was a very necessary choice so that we could see this characters not as people to scapegoat for all the misfortune but as complicated people.

Yes, that's a better assessment, as her entire life has been a trick by and for Kinzo...

This must have really fucked up Rosa a lot - I imagine she felt so so guilty about it. I don't really think you can blame Beatrice or Rosa here - the fault lies with Kinzo grooming someone to be so defenseless and naive to the point they can barely understand danger.

Beato has had enough of having Battler try to blame an ethereal 19th person now, Battler is forced to play like a big boy now.

I think this is probably referring to how Kinzow is unable to take any results other than Beatrice being brought back to him... other people might think of ways of moving on with their life and accepting their misfortune.... Kinzo chose to spend the rest of his life chasing something impossible and ruining the lives of many people in the process.

I can't really express it very well here but holy shit an animated CG.

I might be overthinking this but the fact this episode, outside the meta, refers to the previous episodes is a hint that this one was written a bit after the other ones - the contrast between episode 2 and 3 Shannon is kind of interesting but ultimately it's not that different, Shannon doesn't believe that a real future with George is possible so she's fine with dying after getting the highest attainment (the ring) she believes she can possibly achieve. It's just her death here came earlier than it did in ep2.

Ouch that line about crying himself to sleep over being furniture hurts....

These conversations are pretty interesting when you consider it is the same person struggling with their own thoughts, the part that is fine with killing themselves after getting a ring since that's the happiest they will ever be and the part full of regret and bitterness...

The lines of pure self-hatred are pretty tragic too...

With this board being the first one to go really off the rails the fact Genji died so early probably has to do with it, lol, that's kind of hard mode for Yasu.... of course, the narrative purpose is Tohya knowing the board didn't go as Yasu planned I and to hint us towards how it actually went down in actuality.

Huh.... they bring this up again right after they bring up how Kinzo's wife did the same thing when she thought/knew Kinzow as having an affair.... I guess Natsuhi suspected that as well.

You can tell this episode isn't written by Gohda anymore because Gohda has a scene without someone remarking that he is a snake and evil.

The fact original Beatrice roughly means "played a lot of pranks" is pretty funny.

Battler going uh uh I can't take this anymore here always felt a little weird as if this was any weird than the Kanon goat fight in epsidoe 2... that was due to the changed plans in 3 probably though.
