Shoutout to adorable, dorky, yellow nerds with spiked heads and glasses and an obsession with human media and a drive to make their favorite characters become real and a tendency to screw up badly and then sweep all their worst mistakes under the rug rather than come clean or make amends.

Gotta be one of my favorite Undertale tropes.

I LIED ACTUALLY THIS IS THE LAST ONE BECAUSE I FIGURED OUT HOW TO GET IT TO FUCKING WORK!!! (Hopefully, I may post it and everything may immediately die hopefully not)

It’s a little bit crunchy but its animated and hopefully readable. This comic gave me so much grief on twitter its not even readable over there oh my god. It sucked too because I was so proud of the little animations and I really liked the concept.

Doggo can only see things that are moving right? So the ‘stars’ in waterfall probably sucked balls. But now, they’re on the surface and shooting stars move so… teehee.

Does anyone remember the ‘my persona 5 protagonist’ sheet that went around ages ago. yeah well uhhhhhhhhh i decided to remake it (again, but entirely new) for all the new players that are likely playing through the p5r remaster across other consoles. have fun with it! go nutty! Blank version below ↓

(btw feel free to send this to other ppl. i know it says “do not steal” but that’s more like “don’t claim this as YOUR edit”)

NEW CRAB ZORA OC!!! I love him so much his name is Zeffrim

I was gonna wait until I finished my other Zora oc but I couldn't wait to post him, I got so excited 😭

[zlobonessa]

two things about julius that do not let me sleep at nights are 1) tappei saying that crusch actually defeated him once in a sword fight and never ever elaborating on that and 2) the fact that his father left his nobility status and i presume knight status and married a commoner because it's like. such a ruch opportunity for characterisation

[drsteggy]

I am down to hand sewing some stuff on the doublet so that should be done tonight.

I moved on to this officially

[veveisveryuncool]

an unlikely duo, but somehow their shared introvertism and silent neurodivergent-to-neurodivergent communication are enough for them

Every time I go to hyrule castle I remember that video about the royal guard weapons and how they were shiekah tech created to mimic the master sword (and failed - they're powerful but brittle and no more effective against the calamity than anything else). And I just remember the little detail of the wings on the hilt. On the master sword, they face up when the blade points down. On the royal guard weapons, they face up when the blade points up.

And to me, that little detail is very indicative of what they thought about the hero and the cycle.

The wings face up when fi is at rest. Waiting. Sealing. Not lifted.

For them, their swords face up when they brandish them, when they raise them against their enemies, when they wave them around and cheer.

That's what they think the hero does. That's what they think they can replicate and take for themselves.

That's not what a hero does at all.

Sure, he spends a lot of time doing that, but it's a fraction of the whole. The hero does not do it for glory or pay or fame. He is kind. He helps everyone who asks. He gets things for little kids and listens to their stories and helps people find their pets and goes out of his way to leave the stranger a little happier them when they met. He spends hours crawling through mazes and enemies to find something he can use later.

He does not raise his sword in anger. The job is not done once the villain of the day is skewered on his sword. It needs to be sealed, the darkness pushed back until the next generations can take up the call. It's passing on the torch to yourself. The master sword must seal evil during those intervening centuries.

The heroes soul is one, by breath of the wild, long forged in faith and love and determination and the flames of war and loss. The curse of demise makes it so that only one strong enough to stand against it can push it back. The heroes soul is one that is pure. It's a long reset game, and everyone knows the way it plays out.

And under rhoam, hyrule believes it knows all there is to know about the hero and the cycle. It thinks that it can shove the pieces where it wants them, that with the aid of the ancient technology it can force the warnings of history to bend to it's desire. It thinks enough violence will solve the problem entirely. It makes the master sword mimics with the blades facing up.

And it gets it wrong.

The hero reduced to a silent weapon, a shadow of the royal family, the princess helpless and unable to act, unable to access her own power.

It tries to force the issue with manpower and restrictions and piling societal pressure on the children, and hyrule falls.

Immediately, zelda is able to unlock and channel the full extent of her power, she can make a plan and not have it dismissed, she sends link to safety and travels hyrule setting the parts of a constantly moving puzzle into place, she meets ancient spirits and talks with the master sword and seals ganon on her own for the century it takes for link to return.

When he does, rhoam does not order link to save the princess. He does not pile titles and restrictions and pressures on him. He asks him to save his daughter. The hero finally gets to act at his own pace, and he chooses kindness. He chooses to go out of his way to talk to people outside his station, to listen to kids stories and leave strangers a little happier than when they met. He gathers allies loyal out of trust and not forced respect for things he hasn't done yet.

By choosing kindness and not violence (though there is an incredible amount of both), link becomes able to defeat the calamity and save zelda and the kingdom. Zelda is able to guide him and trust him to come. By working together as respected equals, they save the world.

And afterwards, the master sword is returned to her pedestal, triumphant, blade down and wings raised high.
