#so I sort of split the difference?

They do say all public school teachers are superheroes, after all...

my trials as possibly the one singular person who cares about the larger worldbuilding lore of the riordanverse is figuring out what the difference between harpies, sirens, and bird nymphs (from Artemis' retinue) are. what are the distinctions between these bird women.

Love posting my Spotify receipts for the month bc you can always tell when I’ve had smth big to write for one of my classes bc the one Jash song (Dream (Outro from Calamity)) will make the receipt. I did not end up a Jashinator but I do like having a song I can rely on to make me write things.

I feel like I see much more complaining about innocent sad mom girlboss fandomized Artificer than i actually see innocent sad mom girlboss Artificer. Past like, jokes about them being a girlboss. Which don't count.

the MOST terrifying thing is getting a surprise message from someone you genuinely despise

Oh look at this cover art. Look at the detail, the sheer brutal messiness of it.

It invokes a very specific feeling, and I feel like Tarn's servo here is very well detailed

fun fact, I've noticed that sometimes he has claws, sometimes he has blunt digits. I suppose it could be a blue eyed Brainstorm situation, but who knows. I personally like him better with the claws. Sue me, I love giving characters claws.

actually i think in a post-canon world where shadow is "brought back" (aka made fully corporeal again because at the end of the manga he is Very Much still alive which i thought was Awesome) he should get the chance to actually make proper friends with link. i know popular fanon consensus is that link was never reformed at the end and green & red & blue & vio all remained separate but i think it would be interesting. there's a lot to be said for the friendship that i think would grow readily between zelda & shadow since it WAS her words and her capture by the dark cloud at the end that ultimately pushed him to aid the light (because he was scared FOR her, which is IMPORTANT) but for all that the friendship between vio and shadow was based on false pretenses there is absolutely no question that they DID grow attached to each other, enough that when vio attempted to smash the dark mirror shadow was very visibly upset and after the four links reunite vio is very much...i wouldn't say regretful, because he knew what he was going to have to do from the very beginning (because shadow WAS very much a threat and i don't blame him for it), but saddened. and the thing is! at the end, when shadow aids the four, they respond in kind—it's green who finds "vio" and instantly tries to get him to lean on him and offers him a hand to help him stand. it's blue that notices that "vio" is having trouble turning the sphere and turns it for him. it's vio that pleads with shadow as he lay dying to just hang in there, and it's green who ultimately tells shadow that he's one of them, which leads to shadow finally letting himself dissolve in the light. it is all the parts of link that surround him in death, and so i think it would stand to reason that if shadow were resurrected he should get to properly befriend the whole person whose parts all accepted him in the end. and honestly i think they'd get along great.

one of my favorite cryptid/monster creation theories is that something, even if it was entirely made up, becomes real purely because people believe it enough, and I keep thinking about that in relation to henry's powers/the way he wanted to change the world

like, rather than it being actual timeline splitting or time travel in order to change things (thinking specifically of that shot of him rewinding the grandfather clock, literally manipulating time), it's just like... he wills these things to happen because he believed hard enough in it? if that makes sense?

like he still has powers, that's all real, but rather than it being actual time manipulation, it's closer to like... faulty or changed memories that then retroactively become real. as a tiny example, like brenner's hair inexplicably changing style or graying too fast is just bc henry remembered it wrong, but that doesn't mean it's not real

i just feel like it's an interesting thought since henry leaned so heavily into making false memories or interactions with his victims (chrissy's mom in the bathroom, the cop saying he recognized fred, max seeing her mom after leaving the letters for her family) but they all stemmed from the truth, and perhaps could have become real if the victims believed it hard enough and gave in to their pain and fear

idk! like... i feel like it would be a cool twist to have it be a manipulation of memories that retroactively changes stuff, but the old version still leaks through, rather than it directly being like time travel and stuff

just spent 30 minutes doing research on the star trek in universe shift hours and it’s remarkably consistent and lines up across series. im amazed by this the one thing trek has continuity for is watch hours. RESPECT!

Birth by Sleep is actually the best game because you get to beat the shit out of Peter Pan

This is the funniest thing I could have learned about the game honestly. Here I am reeling in laughter bc the characters from TWEWY look so weird with 3D models, and I find out that I get to look forward to Peter Pan getting beaten up by Sora and Riku. Comedy gold.

huh. we just actually 100% do not have the ability to know who we are without mirroring or comparing to someone else

[malcreation]

the band is recreated into walking corpses during their first international tour, meeting & partying with a mysterious and, frankly, stunning woman they meet after their Edinburgh show (this is Ethel, also known as the butcher of Marylebone — in a particularly devious mood this night, she seduces the lot of them in a way, and instead of devouring them whole, leaves them torn apart and ready to be remade, like molding clay back into their image)

they wake up sore & alone, aside from each other — surrounded by blood, bones, debris of viscera… Ethel nowhere to be found. with no body and no evidence of any wounds, the gang packs it up and gets the hell out of that strange, crimson-coated apartment. figure it was one hell of a party. they begin to understand their transformation in varying ways and levels. kt & grim find themselves consuming some drunkards in the wee hours of the next night. louie holds only a loose control over her cravings, begins to eat raw meat in secret, which only barely sates her. randy accidentally slaughters a few strangers as he desperately searches, despite Bernie’s insistence to leave it alone, for Ethel. Bernie, throughout all of this, is striving for normalcy, but is plagued by this nagging feeling that he’s forgetting something. He sees a woman in the shadows, everywhere he turns. He ignores the burning in his stomach and tightening of his throat and tries to outrun it.
