Best Served Cold VS Best Served Hot

[keferon]

Snowbot/Monster hunter Shockwave: *probably smells like lavender or something* Yeah that's nice ^v^

Mecha/Spellbound Shockwave: *Stands three feets away with a spray bottle in hand* DO NOT TOUCH ME!!

Spellbound Shockwave would be so unbelievably sad if you were treating him like that.

How could you see him being like this and not want to give him a big warm hug?

i don’t think Reaper is talked about enough. whether you’ve consumed the book or the movie, his character might seem small but his role is so important. Suzanne Collins has managed to give him so much with only so little screen time. from his protectiveness over dill to killing a peacekeeper back in district 11 to his deal/exchange with Lamina. He wanted to survive and take revenge on the Capitol and then started making a statement while he was still alive in the arena. The audience thought he was crazy, a preposterous action to gather up dead bodies and they were even more enraged when he tore down the flag. To the Capitol’s eyes they couldn’t even see behind his actions and what it meant to cover up the tributes, the victims of the hunger games, with the flag. President, Gamemakers, mentors, audience, they are all complicit to the murder of those kids. To paraphrase Peeta, their lives were never theirs and neither were their deaths. While they were thrown in an arena to kill each other, they were never the real murderers. The blood wasn’t on the tributes’ hands but on the Capitol’s. And with his last, remaining moments alive, Reaper laid down beside them, knowing and telling them that they killed him. All those unjust deaths under the pretence of order and for the sake of entertaining the eye of masses hungrier than the people in the districts. because while they could satisfy their gluttonous desires, there was one thing they were never full of: a spectacle.

I'm just thinking about people who say Snow despises Katniss because he sees Lucy Gray in her...but what feels more painful to me is that Katniss (and Peeta to a certain degree) not only embodies the qualities that the capitol despises the most regarding the districts, but Snow can see so many people involved with those 10th hunger games tributes in her:

He sees Lamina looking at Marcus in pain and killing him out of sheer mercy in Katniss shooting Cato as a mercy kill.

He sees Reaper Ash's burial and defiance by giving his fellow districts a dignified death and sepulture when Katniss remained by Rue's side and decorated her grave with flowers.

He kind of sees Coral, albeit in a much more ironic way, this girl who was ruthless and embraced such violence with the purpose to protect herself and her district partner, the one she nurses back to health and refuses to leave behind, with the wish to have either one of them survive the games, only to realise it was all for nothing once she loses him and is about to die, when she loses her frail little sister at the hands of District 13.

He sees Sejanus standing for the revolution and fighting for others in detriment of his own safety, maybe not even taking the best judgement at times, in Katniss and not only her protection of Peeta, Rue, Mags, Wiress, but also her general place in the rebellion and restless pursuit of saving Peeta.

He sees Lucy Gray, who stood by Jessup's side until his last breath and refused to abandon him, that never conformed to what the capitol expected from her, and her long lasting and unbreakable heritage and print in Katniss' during the entire saga, but especially in the song that haunted him once as a reminder of the monster he truly is, and that came back to haunt him again in his downfall.

But most importantly, he sees himself, a man defined by his sense of survival, by his practicality and selfpreservation, in this less than 18 year old girl, and that's what terrifies him the most about that district 12 girl: the fact she forces him to confront that he caused so much pain out of a hunger that was never justified, that he could have made SO many things differently, and that most importantly, different to what he would try to say to himself, there was always another choice, and he might have not chosen the correct one every single time it came to deciding what path to take.

Thinking about how pale ore is eerily chill to the touch

about how PV's spells, likely learnt from its father, take on the same shape as nails made out of an ore allegedly related to its parents

about how those spells are pretty much a solid state of soul for a few moments about how solid state of matter is often the most "cold" state, generally speaking

about how cold it's often associated with lack of emotion and corpses

Also thinking about how the knight's spells, learned from the snails, is more raw, more volatile

stated and shown to literally burn opponents, more of a hot blast than a proper solid mass

shaped and named after haunting ghosts, spectres that do not lay to rest, despite soul itself being present in the whole environment and not necesarily directly linked to sentient beings

about how it is strong emotions what fuels their transformation into their more powerful state through the usage of void, a volatile yet maleable substance, and the opposite of light

if you want to, you can get this drawing in full quality and ready to be a phone wallpaper at my kofi page completely free of charge (although i wont be mad if you leave a lil tip)

“This wife you have,” Bird said at last, deeply contemplative, “did you pay a great deal for her?”

“She cost me almost everything I had,” Jamie said, with a wry tone that made the others laugh. “But worth it.”

Ashes & Snow

Ha , yet another one of these types of IchiRuki posts from me I feel like I can always recycle many gifs from Rukia's bankai episode , as it's THE episode that just keeps on giving and giving - that , and of course IR is just THE eternally matching pair - ha , it's really not an exaggeration to say such about them

Petition to call this ship "Scissor Shoulder" simply because I think it would be really, very funny

in my reaper brainrot era because how on earth do you not stan a boy who was so defiant to the end that even as he died, he never begged or pleaded or cried, just calmly accepted his fate, because he was never going to give them the satisfaction of putting on the show they wanted, would never allow himself to be a pawn in any of their games, because fuck that and fuck them and fuck anyone who had anything to do with it
