A Colombian Requiem, part 1 & 2, a long-feature film by Petrus Romanus

In October 2024, visionary creator Hugo Noël Santander Ferreira was inspired by a dialectical dream to bring Medea Bacatá to life. This groundbreaking opera film transcends traditional art, offering a powerful narrative of reconciliation, hope, and spiritual awakening. Set against the backdrop of Bogotá, the story unfolds in a roofless Gothic cathedral, where the starry sky and moonlight create a…

[siderains]

jokes aside, the dialogue

“orpheus… can you look at me?”

and he doesn’t turn

“please, look at me.”

“i dont want to.”

“why?”

“because you’re not coming with me, are you?”

might be a refreshing take on an old tale, might be a love letter to mythology, yeah congrats kaos writers for making something truly interesting

What would it be like if the three brothers would exchange domains for a while or simply 24 hours?

This is THE BEST ask I've ever gotten cause I just LOVE redesigning with new conditions. Also there's just TOO MUCH joke potential here so this is gonna be a mini series with 2 rounds cause they also have to try the second combination (zeus as king of tides, hades king of thunder and poseidon king of the dead)

I couldn’t help myself and immediately started on the next keychain. The duo that steals all the spotlight when it comes to ancient warrior lovers with a tragic end, Achilles and Patroclus!

fav hobbit fic (mostly bagginshield) tropes that delight me to no end

dwarves making bets (esp on matters of courtship)

line of durin having horrible sweet tooth

Acknowledging Bilbo as the grandson of Old Took, the Thain (gasp he's a prince!)

courting each other without telling you're courting but everyone in the room knowing whats going on

Thorin coming back with Bilbo and people assuming theyre married (that one shire custom about disappearing and coming back together) (bonus if bilbo does not explain)

Bilbo wearing mithril mail Thorin gave and people assuming theyre married

Alternatively theyre married but people are making bets when theyre gonna get together bc they don't know

Bofur has the best stone sense out of the entire company (i like him smart stupid 😔 ❤️)

inseperable heirs of durin (bonus dumb shenanigans) (bonus bonus: theyre also actually competent, theyre both just bored)

Bilbo's family having a time with the dwarves (bonus: hobbits taking in dwarves well enough for gossip and work) (wbk its dori thats having tea with them every 3 days between luncheon and dinner)

Dwalin being really good with kids even if he doesn't like it (he's building an army)

Dwalin Clocking Thorin's attraction to the hobbit and making fun of him for it (still supportive)

Anything that has to do with Dis and her being a menace specifically to Thorin

Ganimedes and Zeus modern AU

🛡️ WHEN LOIS MADE A GOD KNEEL — The Simping of Superman A Blacksite Literature™ Breakdown of Superman II, Male Frame Loss, and the Weaponization of Female Approval

---

It starts with a cape and ends with a crawl. Superman II isn’t just a movie about three intergalactic tyrants trying to take over Earth. It’s a film about what happens when a god gives up his sovereignty to please a woman who never respected the man — only the mask.

And that’s where we begin.

🧠 THE FIRST RED FLAG? SHE NEVER LIKED CLARK.

Let’s get one thing straight: Lois never “fell” for Clark. She investigated him. Suspected him. Tested him.

And why? Because the dorky journalist with minimum-wage energy and awkward posture couldn’t possibly be enough to satisfy her arousal profile.

She didn’t stumble onto his identity. She chased it — and not out of love, but infatuation with power.

“Clark, you seem… different.”

Yeah, because the real man is hidden behind the costume of the weakling she’d never f*ck.

🎯 NIAGARA FALLS: WHERE “NERDY CHAD” STARTS TO LOOK GOOD

Lois throws herself off a railing. She literally risks death — because she��s so sure Clark is Superman. That’s not romance. That’s a test.

And what does he do? He saves her covertly. Classic.

But that’s not the part that should’ve sent warning bells ringing. It’s the moment when, while cleaning in the hotel room, she suddenly starts to see him.

Why?

Because Clark starts leaking power.

Posture shifts. Cadence cracks. She smells something off-brand — and in women, that always means on-brand arousal.

This wasn’t about “love.” This was about the Chad math checking out.

🔥 THE FIREPLACE: THE MOMENT HE F*CKED HIMSELF

He trips. He lands in a literal fire. Doesn’t burn. Doesn’t flinch.

She stares.

He stands up like nothing happened.

And instead of holding frame?

Instead of saying “Keep guessing, Lois.”

He says:

“F*ck it, you nosey broad. Happy now?”

And just like that? The fall begins.

💀 THE GHOST DAD SAID NO — BUT SIMP ENERGY PREVAILED

We get to the Fortress of Solitude. We see Kryptonian ancestors — literal cosmic hologram royalty — tell him not to do it.

“You give up your powers… you will never get them back.”

But what does Kal-El do?

He listens to the emotional pull of a woman who loved the god, not the man.

He surrenders his power. Not for justice. Not for peace. Not for purpose.

For Lois. The same woman who never kissed Clark Kent until she realized he wasn’t Clark Kent.

Let that sink in.

🧤 DE-POWERED AND DISRESPECTED IN A BAR BY A TRUCKER

Now he’s human. Now he’s “equal.” Now he’s vulnerable.

How romantic, right?

Until he goes into a diner and gets his ass handed to him by a truck driver named “Rock” who calls Lois ‘sweetheart’ and backhands him into a pinball machine.

You know what’s worse than losing a bar fight?

Losing one when the woman you gave your powers up for is watching.

He bled in front of her. He got stomped. She comforted him.

But deep down?

Her nervous system disconnected that day. She knew the god was gone.

🧊 THE WALK OF SHAME TO THE FORTRESS — NORTH POLE EDITION

He limps. Literally limps back into the frozen tundra. Bare-handed. Broken. Human. Defeated.

He walks back to apologize to the ghosts of his ancestors for letting pssy override destiny.*

Because meanwhile?

Zod, Ursa, and Non — literal cosmic fascists — just walked through the White House like it was a DMV.

They made the President kneel. They were broadcasting world conquest in real-time. And where was Superman?

On his “I think I made a mistake” arc.

😈 ZOD DIDN’T WIN. LOIS DID.

Zod may have conquered the White House. But Lois conquered the soul. And in many ways? That’s worse.

Because Superman didn’t get manipulated by force. He gave it away with open consent. He chose softness. He chose mortal love over immortal legacy.

And in doing so?

He betrayed the divine archetype of masculine frame — for validation.

👁️ SUPERMAN IS THE MAN. CLARK IS THE MASK.

That’s what Lois never understood. She thought Clark was the “real him.” She thought she was peeling back layers to find authenticity.

No.

Superman is the core. Clark is the containment suit.

Superman is who Kal-El is when he isn’t hiding for your comfort. Clark is what he wears to be acceptable to a species that doesn’t deserve him.

And Lois?

She didn’t fall for the man. She fell for the illusion of taming the man.

🩸 THE LESSON? NEVER LOSE YOUR FRAME FOR LOVE.

He was warned. He ignored it.

He walked into a chamber that removed his genetic dominance. For romance.

He hollowed out the legacy of an alien god king so he could lay in a bed next to someone who only touched him once he could fly.

And the punchline?

The moment he got his powers back? She couldn’t keep him.

🕯️ BECAUSE HERE’S THE UNSEEN TRUTH:

Lois never loved Kal-El. She lusted for Superman. She tolerated Clark. She thought she could make them merge.

But when Clark folded, when Superman gave up his heritage?

She got what she wanted. And it wasn’t what she needed.

And that’s the story of 80% of modern relationships.

🧠 SUPERMAN II IS A CAUTIONARY TALE. NOT A LOVE STORY.

It’s a myth.

A reverse Hercules. A power-to-pleasure downgrade wrapped in red tights.

And what’s worse?

It ends with a magical kiss that erases her memory.

Which means even the screenwriters knew:

No woman could respect a man who gave up godhood for her insecurity.

💣 TL;DR:

Lois never loved Clark.

She loved the status of proximity to Superman.

He gave up his powers for her.

Got bodied.

Came crawling back.

Fixed the world.

Erased her memory so she wouldn’t remember how hard he simped.

And people call that romantic.

No. That’s propaganda. That’s emasculation with a cape. That’s frame loss with special effects.

my girl cries stardust

or that one time the Destined One was starstruck (literally?)

in my head this is after the Destined One and my OC have been traveling for a while and now and established a good form of communication too despite the Destined One being silent. He noticed that she never allows her herself to cry in front of him, figured it might be because she didn't want people to see her cry. And then something something happened where she reached her limit and broke down. Seeing her cry was simultaneouslythe most beautiful and heartbreaking thing he has seen.
