rewatching selfishness vs selflessness for the 100th time in a row and there’s this one detail that i always notice. it hurts like a bitch every time i see it too.

in the scene where janus is questioning logan, he obviously takes advantage of the fact that logan had been forgotten by thomas and the rest of the sides when they all entered the courtroom scenario in the first place. logan was (rightfully and obviously) shocked to notice that they were enacting the scenario without him, logic, the person who would undoubtedly be the most excited to do so and would have the most knowledge about courtroom procedures.

but there is the moment where he says that there’s “always room for him” and janus responds with, “i know, that’s what i said! but patton insisted we leave you alone” and that moment sticks with me whenever i watch this episode.

logan immediately turns to look at patton with a surprised, hurt look on his face because he can’t believe that patton would say something like that about him. it’s true that him and patton don’t usually see eye to eye on things, but patton does value his input and they resolved most of their issues during the earlier stages of the sanders sides videos (although not completely).

i find that interesting because whenever janus targets logan, he always makes it a point to draw attention to the fact that logan isn’t very well liked, mostly because he embodies logic and claims not to feel anything, unlike the rest of the sides (who as thomas once put it, are too zany or relatable). he even calls out logan for this during the events of svs.

his “oh, of course you don’t” is dripping with sarcasm and janus is the lord of the lies, he would know when someone is lying. keeping that aside, it was obvious that a few minutes ago, janus’ lie about patton disregarding logan’s usefulness during the courtroom scenario hurt logan, so much so that it was visible on his face. roman’s comment of “did you see the look on his face?” was a nod to that.

so logan, in saying that he doesn’t feel anything, is lying about his own feelings.

additionally, it’s not the first time janus has used patton specifically to counteract logan and lie to him. the whole episode of “can LYING be good?” featured janus, disguised as patton, playing to logan’s likings via patton’s charm. it was evident from the first minute that logan appeared onscreen.

after that, he simply had patton reference famous philosophers, and logan clearly admired that because he seemed to be quite happy about it, even though virgil immediately became suspicious.

janus picked up on the fact that logan didn’t believe that patton would ever try to hurt him on purpose, and at least patton wouldn’t exclude him from things. that patton would listen to him. which makes it all the more sad that in svs redux, when logan said that philosophers would not agree with patton (after patton asked for his input), patton took the easy way out and pulled logan out of the situation.

it’s also why logan ignored patton when he tried to offer comfort after logan reappeared and said “i’m just here to deliver one last fact, then i will do you all a favour and spare you my company.” in fact, he ended up yelling over patton so he could get his point across and actually be heard.

i love logan and patton’s duo, and i really hope they resolve this during logan’s arc. in the meantime, sending love to our logical boy because he needs it.

(an unofficial part two to this post is now up, delving a little more into logan and patton’s relationship. i’ve hyperfixated on the glasses gays at this point /hj)

Rewatching early Ninjago seasons really is just,, Lloyd you sweet kid, you have no idea how much you’ll go through in the coming years 😭

Basically a spoiler for the whole series vvv

The list of Lloyd Montgomery Garmadon’s misfortunes:

Having to “kill” your dad bc prophecy told you to, seeing your friend die, having to banish your dad after you just got him back, getting possessed, actually having to kill your dad to save the world, having your uncle vanish with no trace, failing your mission to save the royal family and having them die on you, getting deeply betrayed by the one you love to the point you stop trusting new people for several years, having your dad come back but not remember you + almost kill you, losing your powers during the most crucial time, thinking almost all your close friends were killed by your dad, finally getting your friends back but then thinking you lost one again, literally dying and meeting god aka your grandpa, your dad leaves you again, having to deal with an electric chicken, almost dying in a lava trap, finding out your lost friend turned into a genocidal warlord who took over an entire realm and wiped out a species, thinking you’re reuniting with the dead loved one who betrayed you but finding out she’s just a simulation before getting virtually killed, having your mom be kidnapped for months, getting framed for the assassination of a king, watching your friend almost drown to death, losing a close friend bc she became one with the ocean, seeing your other friend isolate himself in a tower for a year, getting thrown in jail, reuniting with that supposedly dead loved one who betrayed you, finding out she’s behind basically every catastrophic thing that’s been happening for the last few years + she tries to manipulate you again, finding out your dad who left you has actually been chilling in an apartment for months, seeing ur dad basically loves a plant more than you 😭, thinking you lost your dad again after you just got on goodish terms with him again, finding out he lied to manipulate you, and then the god damn merge happens 😭😭😭

Not to mention the absurd amount of times he’s been kidnapped and put in a cage,, or the fact that he’s probably gonna outlive everyone,,,,

Wildbrain/post oni trilogy era Lloyd went THROUGH it man,, and he just keeps taking more and more L’s ;0; so glad ninja never quit bc I would have quit back in season 4

The other day I was rewatching Hollowtone’s vod on Psychonauts 2, which is fun because of the chat overlay. And there’s the part where you can open the powers menu and see all the nice embroidered badges and the nice signatures of the teachers that gave you them…. except Sasha’s. And this makes sense, he wasn’t authorized to teach Raz psi-blast, so it would be really bad if he’s showing off his cool badges on his bag and someone sees Sasha’s signature. So Ford signed off on the marksmanship badge. But the chat in the vod is coming up with hilarious reasons why Sasha didn’t/couldn’t sign off on it, my favorites being:

“He’s only capable of of writing in Times New Roman”

“His handwriting is bad, toddler/doctor level”

“Sasha writes exclusively in latin”

“He actually can’t write”

“He uses telekinesis for everything, if he touches a pen he instantly dies”

And I was thinking about how ridiculous they were, but when I actually think about it… is there ever a proven time he actually writes something down? Like with his hands?

He’s living in a time period where typewriters existed, and in the current time, computers do, and therefore printers… And in one of the promotional comics he’s not even using his hands to eat with a fork, he just uses his powers. He uses telekinesis for most things actually. I don’t find it out of the realm of possibility of just using telekinesis to write things down. And then, I guess he’d never actually have need to learn to do it with his hands…

Maybe Sasha can’t write.

Oh how naive I was…

Lol some of the takes I'm seeing around are boggling my mind.

Come on. No way Sand was practically crying into his drink over Ray at his dad's bar only to turn around and fuck Boeing right after he and Ray made up. Please be serious.

"A Warren. It's a family trait. So are the short tempers, the great cheekbones, the strong wills, and, of course, the powers. All blessings. All signs of where you came from."

Honestly, thinking thoughts about Warren witches and the short tempers. We see this one best through Piper obviously, but I was thinking about the way that this manifests in especially Wyatt out of all the next gen kids.

I feel like Wyatt really represses a lot of his negative emotions. Don't get me wrong, I do generally think that he's a pretty kind, optimistic person in general, but I also interpret him as someone who has this kind of fear at what he's capable of. I've mentioned this before, but the way I went about "depowering" Wyatt, for lack of a better word, to a manageable level is that he locks down most of his powers so that his control is somewhat resigned to not using them because while he's not necessarily afraid of his powers, he's afraid at their potential power. I mean, my Wyatt is currently hovering around 23ish in my next gen stuff, and that is an intense amount of power (and pressure) to put on someone who is still trying to figure out what the fuck they're trying to do right now. However, the issue is that a witch's powers are closely tied to their emotions, so with Wyatt basically locking down his powers, he basically locks down those emotions as well. The trigger for a lot of the particularly destructive powers, aka the ones Wyatt ruthlessly extinguishes in fear of unleashing tend to be rooted in stuff like anger or fear.

So when it comes to Wyatt's temper, I think it's really hard to actually unleash it. One, I think that he's just kind of hard to piss off in general. Chris and Mel have always been the two to start fighting, so he tends to take on a mediator role with them (especially bc the only other next gen kid to stand a chance is Peyton, Phoebe's eldest). So he's pretty good about letting shit roll off his back, because both of his siblings will turn their anger on him if his interference goes poorly. Two is that he's at least. kind of aware of other people's expectations of and for him, which don't really tend to be very human. He's pretty awkward with some of it, because so many people expect this saintlike, godlike figure of the Twice-Blessed and he's a 23 year old working as a library assistant at Magic School trying to figure shit out. (Especially when it comes to the magical politicking bullshit, Wyatt's so earnest and open that he struggles with it. It's an interesting time when the Marks family manages to drag any of the Halliwells to a witch event bc of the layering expectations and personalities for each Warren.) But he's pretty good at the compassion and gentleness that people expect, and he leans into that when he can sense those expectations. Thirdly, and I'll relink this post, Wyatt internalizes the fuck out of shit. He doesn't really blame someone else, even if they've wronged him. Instead, he fully takes on the blame and guilt himself and basically self-flagellates himself about it.

For the most part, he's very difficult to anger. However, when someone actually does manage to piss him off, there are two possibilities. Firstly, he basically unleashes it if he's able to, aka evil beings. Secondly, he hardcore represses it. Not even in a swallow the acid in your throat type of way, but like he ruthlessly shoves it so far down that he can't even taste the burn in his throat anymore type of way. In that case, he just blocks it out and pretends it doesn't exist until he basically believes it. The biggest thing is that when it comes to short tempers, no one really realizes that Wyatt even has one.

Needless to say, and actually the inspiration for this is that repression demons can wreak a whole lot of havoc through Wyatt if they can get to him. It'd be a source of pretty significant power to the demon and damage to those around Wyatt, and the guilt he'd have afterward? Could honestly power another repression demon. An important part of growing as a person and as a witch for him would need to be embracing and dealing with his emotions, all of his emotions, in a healthy manner instead of just repressing them entirely. I feel like that'd make some cool plotlines for growth, especially with the empaths in the family.

Spoilers!!!

You know what I just realised? Makoto’s probably never had like..an actual hug before.

Like sure, maybe somebody had hugged him in his Number One memories, but like, it’s never been directed to him, to Makoto

And that’s pretty sad somebody give him a hug

[uptoolateart]

That scene in the bedroom, in the dark...when Marinette calls herself a failure and Adrien yells that he doesn't care - 'I still love you!' And she says, 'I don't love you...not anymore.'

It so reminds me of Cat Blanc - her at his door in the rain, telling him she doesn't love him anymore. That was also done under dark lighting.

In Cat Blanc, he also protested - and later, in the future, as Cat Blanc, the way he yelled at Ladybug about not loving him anymore...sigh. There is just too much emphasis on that word 'anymore'.

After all the times Cat Noir was turned down by Ladybug, it was such a relief to see Marinette finally confess she loves Adrien - for his sake, even. She has no idea how many times that boy has been rejected. And add that to all the rejection he receives at home.

These moments when he gets so fired up over what is seemingly just first love...he's definitely lashing out about how lonely and unloved he feels as a person.

But all the parallels with what happened in the alternative time stream are concerning. Especially when we consider Monarch previously saying he would use the information about Cat Noir loving Marinette to his advantage. That has to be followed up.
