Crow: I don't know... I haven't spoken to Jolyon since Glint raised me.
Petra: You used to be inseparable. It's not just anyone who would follow you into the Black Garden.
Crow: I thought you'd want me to keep my distance.
Petra: Queen Mara wanted to protect you from Uldren's memories. I think, we're past that.
Crow: [laughs] Yeah, probably...
Petra: You should reach out. Jolyon is a good man.
Crow: I'm a different person. That probably goes for Jolyon, too. The last time he saw me... [sighs]
Petra: Let him make that decision. You were close. Chances are, you could be again.
Crow: I... I'll think about it. You know, you still give good advice, Petra.
Petra: Yeah, well... I never take it.
seeing characters be stripped of their personality so they can be shipped with another character in the "dynamic" or whatever the person who's using them wants makes me so angry like you guys have no idea like why ?? Just find a different character that fits that criteria actually ?? At this point it's not the same character anymore ??? Do you even actually like that character if they have to be shaped the way you want them to ??
And same with the friend/canon partner or love interest of the character being villainized for no reason because they need a bad guy for the "alpha strong" person of the relationship to protect the other from like omg guys
Characters being villainized just because they're "ugly" or a girl even when theyre only a foil to the ACTUAL VILLIAN that killed thousands of people and regrets like nothing
Ignoring female characters that are complex and interesting for a random male side character
aloy in the slack channel: everyone should be added now and assignments have been sent for the month so refresh your inboxes and ask gaia if you have any issues
erend: Go team!!
talanah: @everyone anyone want to hunt an apex stormbird with me, meet me by the west exist in 5min, bring your own arrows
varl: aloy when are you updating your icons, yours and talanahs are still the default so i keep getting you both confused
avad: Hello Am I Using This Correctly? How Is The Weather Out West?
anonymous: If you continue to fill this message board with prattle, I shall install a virus into the network that restricts you all to five messages per day before all your focuses will crash. Consider yourselves appropriately warned and do not touch the lab door for the next twelve hours, as I have cultures growing and the lab must remain at a certain temperature.
aloy: Sylens I know you know how to use mute so shut up and leave if you don't like it
alva: Hi everyone, and hi Sylens, just to let you know, I don't want to be presumptuous or anything but the plural of "focuses" is actually foci! Quen scholars have debated this rigorously, and colloquially the Old Ones said focuses all the time, but grammatically I just thought you might want to know the more accurate word!
alva: ALSO I'm so glad we can chat here now, I'll upload you all some files here so we can learn and use some terms that the Ancestors used! TTYS!!! (talk to you soon)
beta: Aloy keeps forgetting to respond to my request for admin access formally so I've hacked her account and am assigning myself a fellow moderator of this chat just to tell everyone this is for WORK ONLY. I'll make several separate threads for any other idle chat or interests, but please keep it on topic here.
kotallo: Hello, everyone. Apologies for the message, I'd just like to test that this text-to-speech function works. Send. Oh I needn't say "send"? Thank you, GAIA.

wild how Miorine didn’t appear once but how often she was invoked in this episode. Shaddiq’s (disgusting) accusations towards Guel not taking responsibility with her, Petra’s only wish to survive and demand a proper date from Lauda, Chuchu telling Nika that she needs to tell her the truth and the entire truth, otherwise they can’t even start on the path to forgiveness. The Greenhouse being crushed underneath a Gundam, the article that was sent to Suletta in the beginning. Earth House unsure how to handle it, Suletta back in class, zoning out.
I hate it when they destroy Levi's character for the sake of shipping him with somebody and romanticize every decision he makes like NO HE HAS A MIND OF HIS OWN.
What pisses me off the most is when people romanticize the promise he made to Erwin. People have to understand that Levi carried the weight of a hundred dead soldiers. Imagine the guilt that comes with that. Levi HATED unnecessary deaths. In one of the episodes/chapters he literally ordered his soldiers to stay alive. By fulfilling the promise he avenged all the fallen Scouts that died at the hands of the Beast Titan. Which is why he sees THE ENTIRE SCOUT REGIMENT in the last episode because he owed it to all of them INCLUDING Erwin and Hange.
He's also one of the most emotional characters in AOT and his character has a lot of depth and placing it entirely under romantic influences is actually disrespectful to the effort put into writing the manga.
I personally don't mind the ships. I like Levihan as a ship but to a certain extent and completely based on their interactions in the show/manga. But you know it's a problem when it starts interfering with the actual plot of the show and is an insult to the amount of work put into creating the masterpiece.
And before anyone says he's "just a character", shut up. I'm saying this as an aspiring writer who would hate it if someone completely missed the point of my story and because it really sucks when someone destroys your comfort character, a well written one at that.
(btw this isn't about headcanons, those are cool)
PS: I'm also saying this because I've seen the amount of anon hate towards certain bloggers for merely expressing their views, all because they(anon) want to enforce their ship or are too dumb to differentiate b/w headcanons and canon content.
n then i said- what if i saw another one that has the jesse i picture in my head (bcs ive seen fanart of him before watching the game n the first walkthru im seeing has a jesse that doesnt look like the one i saw)
TELL ME WHY THE STORY IN THAT ONE CHANGED ENTIRELY??? HOW DID PETRA N GABRIEL SWITCH???
I will defeat the false goddess. I will save this world from those creatures and give humanity its freedom back!
Should the one leading the people of the world be someone with humanity or a creature that can merely masquerade as a human at will?
The children of the goddess have been defeated at last. The shape of the world will be forever changed.
Humanity is free now. The world is ours once again.
You are a child of the goddess. You must not be allowed power over the people!
Brigid :
The Demon's hair exhibits new color. It is like something from one of Brigid's old stories.
"One will be chosen by the spirits and granted their protection. And with that protection, great power."
In Brigid, we have legends. Stories containing people who have a spirit living inside of them.
Those spirit people have much strength. They are maybe able to fly in the air or race across the ocean.
Hair that shines and eyes that glow...
They have qualities that are not unlike what you are looking like, Professor.
Do not have doubt, Professor. The powers you have are like the powers of the legends.
Silly Petra, hopefully in Tru Piss and Supreme Bullshit, she's fully Adrestianised and understands her foolish savage folklore were only lies and deceit spread by those vile creatures masquerading as humans to keep control over Fodlan, but savage and ignorant as her people are, they prefered to buy those lies instead of "defeating" them all to free the world for humanity.
And people say Imperialism BaD, go figure!
But if Petra remains uncivilised and ditches Adrestia's warm embrace, she allows those creatures to rule over humanity again, propagating her foolish and ridiculous tales :(
