Villainous Headcanon: The Disagreement

Location: P.E.A.C.E. HQ, Recreation Area

[One of the Golden Rule Members start a fight with a newbie superhero due to a petty reason while all the other heroes cheered on and watched the fight with excitement]

General Falchion: Hey now, is this a fight?

[The noise of the crowd of Heroes dies down as the crowd part at the sight of General Falchion]

General Falchion: [Golden Rule Member], I should have known...

[Golden Rule Member]: (rolls-eyes)

General Falchion: I heard that the PR team is still trying to cover up that maiming "accident" you caused at Rainy Hills.

General Falchion: Are there not enough Villains now that you're targeting other Heroes? Could you do me a favor and lay off them on my account?

[Golden Rule Member], scoffs: I only take orders from the boss.

General Falchion: Well then, let me ask your boss.

General Falchion: Who is your boss, GoldHeart?

GoldHeart: (glares)

[All the heroes stare nervously at GoldHeart waiting for his response]

GoldHeart, forced smile: ...It's you, isn't it?

General Falchion, laughs: We'll then now that's settled. All team leaders gather in the main conference hall, I have an important announcement I need to make.

---

Headcanon: GoldHeart being the top hero definitely has a high authority and power over P.E.A.C.E. but overall General Falchion runs P.E.A.C.E.

This is extremely far-fetched but I think it would be interesting if GoldHeart doesn't like the way Falchion runs things in P.E.A.C.E. but unfortunately has to agree with him because he is the one in charge.

GoldHeart is the next one to be the General if anything happens to Falchion but he won't quote an unquote wait "20 years for an old man to die" in order to be in charge and achieve his goals.

He can't just kill Falchion on the spot and take over, it would make him look like the "bad guy".

So he has to be sneaky about these things and "play Falchion's game" for the moment and listen to what he says while GoldHeart gains more power and sway with the public and the heroes, so that they will listen to his ideas instead of Falchion so that when the time comes when he is in charge people would definitely welcome the idea.

The next step is to blame Falchion over some crimes, something so horrible that it can't be covered and is looked down upon even in the organization. (Like giving information about the P.E.A.C.E. to villains). So that way when Falchion is arrested, GoldHeart will look like the "good guy" ☺️👍 taking over this "corrupt villain".

The only one who knows this plan is the Golden Rule Members (excluding Miss Heed) who are already loyal to GoldHeart and only follows Falchion's rules if GoldHeart says so, and agrees to help with GoldHeart's plan, knowing that they will get more power and influence as well after GoldHeart takes over.

Kuina: Chishiya and Niragi are never gonna make nice! They're both horrible in their own ways!

Heartstopper S2 spoilers (kind of)

So I watch Heartstopper with my mom and we both absolutly adore the show, me because I am gay and love to see a more wholesome queer story for a change and my mom because she likes watching series with me. But I also have all four volumes on my shelves so of course I knew some of the things that were going to happen in season 2 and I warned her that at one time I was going to cry, I did the last episode really got me and the Louvre scene almost got me. To my suprise Isaac his scenes also had a lot of impact on me, but also not suprising since I am struggling with where I fall on the aroace spectrum so like of course his story speaks to me.

But that is actually not what I started this post for. Because like I said I have all four volumes and I am an annotater when I read, which means my volumes have nice color coded sticky thingies and I write in my books with those clear sticky notes since I dont want to actually write in my comic. And now my mom knows I do this and she asked if she can maybe read the comics, both to see the differences the show made with the comics but also to see my thoughts I write in them. And like there are some pretty serious stuff in there (Cause like I am Charlie, we are one and the same so a lot of his experiences I really recognize) but I would like to show some of my favourite comments I have left where my mom will just be like "Sweetie, why did you feel the need to write this down?"

Also most of this is me cursing at David but here we go:

[niragis-thot]

My headcanon is that Niragi was manic af during this scene from taking corticosteroids for his inhalation burns

[fanficthingsworld]

Niragi: Chishiya, would you come over here and be a corpse?

Chishiya: Yeah. You do mean pretend to be a corpse, right? Because the way you're holding that rifle, you're looking a little slashery.

i really like when they adapt a series in a way that suits the new medium + provides alternate but harmonious development to the original series. adaptations don’t need to be 100% faithful to the original storyline as long as they remains faithful to the original themes and purposes

i just finished alice in borderland s2 and im dehydrated from crying, still kinda confused and extremely in love with aguni

Arisu: A psychic on the street just said, 'Why don't you come in for a reading, sweetie?' and without missing a beat, I said, 'No thanks, I can't read'.

Arisu: I bet her psychic intuition didn't warn her I'd say something that stupid.

[sanstropfremir]

(Alice in Borderland pt 2 spoilers) I think the task of transitioning from the manga to the adaptation aggravates the problem of pacing, firstly, because the second part of the manga is longer than what they put in the adaptation (I'm pretty sure it would've took another/half a season to get the same pacing and details) and secondly, because some of the games that we see with the main heroes in the adaptation are made with new characters in the manga (for example, in the 1st season, Arisu and Usagi win the bus game but in the manga, it's all new characters who participate, and only the wounded guy survives) It makes sense because having to focus on so many new characters and spending entire arcs without seeing your favorite one can be boring, but at the same time it can fuck up the flow of the story and motive/use of the characters.

i think they were right in reducing the amount of characters down for the show, because even though tv is technically a serialized format, prestige drama like this show is not actually serialized anymore. versus in a manga, where you do still have a serialized format and have a lot more time and space to introduce characters. you can't fit the equivalent amount of information that you can onto a page that you can into something filmed, because film is a time based medium. audiences can take as long as they want to read a book, but you are literally bound by time itself when working with performance mediums, so by nature you have to consolidate. that's just the way that it goes. tbh i think the pacing of the show overall was fine, and where they made the mistake imo with the second season was not the fact that they consolidated the second half down, but the fact that they weighted that consolidation weirdly. they spent MUCH too long on the king of clubs challenge that was much more focused on arisu's internal conflict, which stood directly in opposition to the fact that clubs challenges were supposed to be about teamwork. it just felt like the writers got bogged down by trying to hit specific expository beats instead of actually writing the micro conflict of two teams against each other. and then this made the back half of the season too oddly weighted with having to run through the rest of the plot beats in order to get to the final face cards before they ran out of runtime.

hiiiiii calling all AIB and Hunger Games Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes IRLs!!!! doing a source call cuz I'm lonely

I'm Arisu Ryohei and Coriolanus Snow :^) I'm looking for pretty much anyone from either media (except Chishiya, Kuina, and Mira)

I will say tho that if u double one of my friends I probably won't be comfortable with that :^(

And if you're from BOSBAS, I also get if you don't want to talk to me bc of what I did

But I'm just making the call to see if there's any of you actually out there!!!

[soyboysace]

might be a hot take but as someone that loves the alice in borderland series, they're straight up milking it now that they're doing a third season. season two felt like a satisfying end and that's because that's exactly how the source material did end. with a little red bow and everything so i think that to add to that, even if it would turn out to be good, would just be blatant milking knowing that season 2 ended the way it should've. in general, i just don't like it when a show is kept running longer than it should
