Owl House: Who was your favorite character at the start and at the end?

I FINALLY FINISHED THE SERIES! So can finally answer this

Okay, so at the start, it was Eda, of course. I would be so surprised if Eda wasn't everyone's favourite at the start, and to a degree, she is still my favourite. I still aspire to be Eda when I grow up, she is my icon

BUT NOW, I have like, several favourites for many different reasons.

Like Hunter, King, The Collector and Willow are just MY BABIES! THEY ARE MY KIDDOS! I just want to adopt all 4 of them, for different reasons but I do! Willow is quite like me and I just want to shield her from shit, whereas Hunter is completely unlike me, but I still saw his struggles and how difficult his life is AND JUST WANT TO SHIELD HIM TOO! The Collector, for obvious reasons, he is just a kiddo! And he did bad things but they didn't know they were bad! They just need love goddamn it! And King, the little guy that since the beginning I have just wanted to adopt and hug for the rest of my life

However, I also love Eda, Darius, Lilith, Alador and Camila for being parental figures to different people, and being the guardians I wanted in life! they mean the world to me, they are so funny but also adorable to me

Gus and Hooty i adore for their one liners! I NEED MORE PEOPLE TO LOVE THEM AS MUCH AS I DO

AND RAINE! AND EBER! AND, literally any character I have talked about, they are beloved by me

However my top favourites (I won't be able to choose just one, i am not a decisive person!) are probably Eda, Alador, Darius, Camila, Luz (SHE IS AMAZING OKAY), Gus and King. The collector is up there too but you know. AND THAT IS A LOT OF PEOPLE BUT I have a big heart (i have been described as heartless before but shush) so they can all fit there

Okay I just realised this but Vasco's two moles under his eyes reminded me of this old saying that two moles directly under the eyes mean you get bad luck in relationships. Intentional or not, this detail is a nice little easter egg to his relationship with Machete and any he had beforehand!

Hey a question. It is true that Tumblr will shut down? I read it on another account and i dont know if is true or not.

i'm going to kindly encourage you to do your own research on the matter instead of asking Random People Online, who likely have their own misinformation and biases & will no doubt give you a skewed answer <3

Anybody else notice how the Entity is getting not only more complex with every update, but also more and more alive? To the extent that it can now get up and walk? To the extent of implied organs, implied magic? And meanwhile, coincidentally, Grian seems to be losing his sense for his own durability. Stood right there and took a hit from a trident thrown straight up, expecting to live, but didn’t. The surprise in his voice when Keralis was able to take him out in one punch. Having less health than he expected to have is becoming a trend...except for that time in front of the Rift.

“...I didn’t die?”

You know. The last near-death incident before the over-estimations started happening.

Debt is a powerful, powerful thing. Perhaps the Rift, and the Entity it spawned, know that. Perhaps that loan of life to Grian was the permission they needed to start taking back their due - slowly, of course, so that he never quite notices.

Slowly, of course, one sip of life at a time, so that the thing at the other end of the straw can feed in steady peace. Because debt and deals might rule the eldritch, but equivalent exchange rules nature, and the Entity is above all else both. Life cannot simply spring from nothing, not without cause, not without fuel. Grian is the reservoir of life that the Entity is pulling from. As it grows, he depletes.

Maybe the Rift is a conduit, the pipe for the transfer to take place - or maybe it’s the mastermind, or an impassive observer, or hey, maybe it’s just a coincidental tear like any other tear. Randomness is a law of nature too. But the idea that the Entity’s growth will be capped by how much life and power is left to be pulled from Grian is terrifying in MULTIPLE ways and I’ll be turning it over in my brain for the rest of the day at least

'It is not madness, lady,' he answered; 'for I go on a path appointed. But those who follow me do so of their free will'

...

there came the Lady Éowyn after him and called to him. He turned and saw her as a glimmer in the night, for she was clad in white; but her eyes were on fire.

'Aragorn,' she said, 'why will you go on this deadly road?'

...

For a while she was silent

...

She paused. 'Lord,' she said, 'if you must go, then let me ride in your following. For I am weary of skulking in the hills, and wish to face peril and battle.'

'Your duty is with your people,' he answered.

'Too often have I heard of duty,' she cried.

...

'A time may come soon,' said he, 'when none will return. Then there will be need of valour without renown'

...

And she answered: 'All your words are but to say: you are a woman, and your part is in the house. But when the men have died in battle and honour, you have leave to be burned in the house, for the men will need it no more. But I am of the House of Eorl and not a serving-woman. I can ride and wield blade, and I do not fear either pain or death.'

'What do you fear, lady?' he asked.

'A cage,' she said. 'To stay behind bars, until use and old age accept them, and all chance of doing great deeds is gone beyond recall or desire.'

...

'I say to you, lady: Stay! For you have no errand to the South.'

'Neither have those others who go with thee. They go only because they would not be parted from thee – because they love thee.' Then she turned and vanished into the night.

I didn't comment on this conversation yesterday bc I didn't have the brain Get-Together to do so and I still don't really but I'll just carve out some basic shapes

I read this out loud once and by the end of it I'll be honest my heart was racing. Éowyn is so full of fire and longing and bitter anger with nowhere to put it!!! Aragorn's words are gutting, true or not, and that itself speaks to something very deep and painful--that he can be all calm and lordly and yet, even speaking so wisely, completely fail to be what she needs.

And it's not required of him to be, of course. He could hardly do otherwise than he does, and his own duty is heavy on him. But her last words hit like a zinger. The men that follow him down this road seek his service as a leader, and he gives it. But not to her. They give him their love freely in a way she cannot. How many times has she run up against something that felt like this. How many more times will she have to endure this. Aragorn is no misogynist but since when has one person being chill about my asexuality fixed all my problems? Yeah, no. God but I feel for Éowyn.

She reached out for him as a hope to escape the tomb of her own heart, and found nothing to aid her.

Wonder what she'll do next...

[kakusu-shipping]

Hi, I would like to understand why do you ship Mario and Luigi? You don't have to answer if it's not comfortable for you. 🙂

This soooooo immediately reads as a bait question, but I'm trusting you here anon I'm trusting you asked this in genuine good faith which I don't know why you would but if you want to know;

The short answer is Because I Want To and I Like Them. Plain and simple, there doesn't have to be a deeper reason. Sometimes we just ship things because we want to. Understood? Okay cool.

A slightly longer answer would be because they're the kind of Ship Dynamic that brings me the most comfort. I love a ship where they are each other's other half, they understand eachother and support eachother and just get eachother in ways no other person ever could. Loving eachother, being together is all they've ever known, they can't imagine a world where they're not together, side by side.

Platonic or Romantic aside, Mario and Luigi are a perfect pair, that's their entire thing. Mario is Reckless and Headstrong, Luigi is Calculating and Sturdy. Mario charges forward, Luigi holds the line. Mario picks mushrooms out of his spaghetti, and Luigi eats them. They fill in the gaps the other leaves, they compliment and communicate and trust one another undoubtedly.

I love a love like that. Of course it's you. It was always going to be you. It could never be anyone but you. I am not me without you, and you are not you without me. They are eachother's everything

They are a bonded pair, do not separate.

[theneighborhoodwatch]

TNW, I need to ask you something. It's been on my mind for weeks. I've been losing sleep over it. Please, tell me: Do you ship Wally with his house?

[widowshill]

24 (What other character from another fandom of yours that reminds you of them?) for Roxy

Thanks for copying the question here buddy I appreciate that a lot (I can't load the post on my phone or my own blogs at all still)

Uhhhh honestly, Roxy's pretty different to a lot of my usual other blorbos. I could compare her to Labrys from Persona 4 Arena in a sense that they're both robots with horrible trauma that have been forced to do things they wouldn't dream of doing otherwise, but that doesn't feel like a great comparison ngl

I could compare her to a lot of blorbos though. Like Bracken from Ni No Kuni 2, Unit #024 and Labrys from Persona 4 Arena, for being chronically underutilized by the devs. Maybe PURL from Kuni 2 but PURL feels more... Like an opposite to Mimic? The first attempt at sentient AI in that world, determined to answer the question of what colour is the sky for herself... Only knows a few things, a child her closest friend, and accidentally takes over the wholeass factory in her attempts to see the sky again after like a decade of being deactivated. And also because the devs couldn't think of anything interesting for a new Broadleaf area so they wanted to make sure you did the wholeass factory again for some fucking reason.

Ohhh then again, I was watching those clips last night and Toothless and Hiccup made me think of Roxy and Cassie in an AU kind of way. Mostly because of the dogisms I like to give Roxy and because of several AUs that are more in line with How to Train Your D/ragon... (Put a slash in it to make extra sure I don't end up in any searches for that) So maybe Toothless? Maybe not?

Honestly I don't think I've ever liked a character that has shown much interest in their appearance before. Maybe Erza from Fairy T/ail? Looks cool and could kill you but has zero braincells whatsoever? Also very traumatised? Koromaru from P3 cause his persona is Cerberus and Roxy is the Cerberus to Mimic? And I can see her running around with a knife in her teeth? I dunno man that's a tough question

Ohhh there was also Blaze from the Sonic games! Not because of Roxy specifically, but because in coming up with a horse for her, many of the ideas for it was giving my Blaze vibes lmao. She has a horse in the Olympic games and it's pure white with light purple tack and possibly eyes I don't remember so yeah that kept popping to mind in coming up with a horse nsjsdj

And I suppose my OC Zephyr somewhat reminds me of her. That whole universe I made was started when I got so deep into a Pupcakes/Roxica Pirates AU that I decided to make it a whole thing and Zephyr is who Roxy in the story became. I like Zephyr she's very cool and has become very distinct from Roxy, but her roots are still there, ya know? I'll always remember where she started.

Jsisjsi I could associate Roxy with Disney's Bolt too just cause he's a superhero dog and a funny lil guy. And for some reason one of the OST tracks for the DS game will plague my mind for the rest of my days. Even though I'm thinking of every track but that one right now. It's the one for Bolt's part of the... Something Temple level. Bolivia? Belize??? I think it has a B in it... But anyway yeah Superdog! Hooray!

P03 from Inscryption too but mostly because it's tech themed, and I had that old AU where I drew her as the Scrybe of Technology. Inscryption is incredible btw I fucking love it. I suck at it apparently though. I got to Act 2 and played a fucking beefed up Ouroborus in the first stage of P03's fight like "oh I've got this fucker now!!" No I did not. I absolutely did that. Stoatal misplay. Could not have fucked that up more lmao anyone that's played or seen this game will know exactly what ended up happening there nsjdjdi I FORGOT okay?? I forgot!!!

BACK ON TOPIC yeah Roxy's a pretty different character to the norm for me. Genuinely can't think of anyone that might be similar to her enough for them to remind me of her if I saw them again. Maybe if I went back and watched the old My Little Pony from the fucking 70s or whatever, but it would just be the standard stereotype of "all girls care lots about their appearance and gasp in horror if you dirty a pretty dress" probably. You know the one. I do my best not to humour that shit in my own Roxy interpretation but it's hard to forget that's absolutely where her written personality stems from :/

Hello, Didn't want to say anything except it is awesome to find a fellow Jonathan Byers AND Scott Summers enjoyer, I love both of those characters a lot.

Ah, that's awesome! Thanks for saying hi. I am, indeed, massively gone for both of those guys, and I am equally delighted to come across another fan of both.

[ahogedetective]

It's been something she's been wanting to do forever, but ... reasons have held her back. More specifically, her inability to usually follow through on more positive emotions and the fact that despite Shuichi being one of the kinder and well, more introverted guys she's met ... he somehow had the frustrating ability to make her a flustered mess with no outlet except undeserved bites and standing a little too close to comfort. All of that bubbled up inside of her to culminate in the moment she finally got too frustrated (with him AND her own growing impatience) which led her to suddenly lunge forward as he began turning towards her and (clumsily) slam their lips together.

It was funny, really, whenever he thought about his and Iako's relationship. How rocky it started off at first, but then overtime, they became much closer, more softer towards each other... and Iako's unique way of showing affection to him. Yes, she often followed very close behind him, bit him, and sometimes makes a mess of his room.... but he learned that those were just some of the ways Iako let out her more flustered emotions. In a way, he found it very cute: her, very cute.

Even now, he found himself wishing she was here. And as if his wishes were answered, he heard her enter. "...!" Instantly, he rose out of his seat and placed his book down. "Iako...! What a nice surprise, I was just wondering where y..." He was saying this as he was turning towards her. In that flash of a second, her face was so close; closer than it's ever been. Before his mind could fully process that, and how closer their lips were... he felt hers, press against his.

"Mmph-?!" He felt his brain short-circuit. His body instantly froze. Iako was kissing him. Iako was kissing him.... the more that realization hit him, the deeper shade of red his face became... and the more he felt like his heart was going to burst. He didn't know how obvious it might have been to her... but hr knew for himself.. just how much he's always wanted to kiss her, too. But he was always so nervous about making the first move; the fear of if he did that, and she reacted negatively, and hate him for it... a fear he knew was very irrational with their undeniable feelings for each other, but his anxiety always had the unfortunate power to make him believe such things.

But now he saw that he was wrong. He couldn't be happier that he was... and once his heart calmed down, he found himself leaning into the kiss some more, to deepen it ever so slightly. Arms that dangled to his side, would slowly go to wrap around her waist. He didn't want this to end. For as long as possible, he wanted to enjoy this kiss... And even when it would eventually have to end, he didn't let go of her; rather, he still kept his face very close to hers. His face was still very much red, and his heart, while calmed a little, was still beating a mile a minute: but the gaze he looks at her with, was full of that longing, that yearning for her. That love for her that only continued to grow, immensely so at this very moment. "Ia...ko....I-I...."

A shaky exhale leaves him. He almost questioned himself if it would be okay to do this... but then realized, that'd be silly. And so, giving her a soft squeeze, he leans in to kiss her right back. He didn't want to let go of that feeling just yet: that feeling of how nice it felt to be kissed by her. Just for as long as possible... he wants to savor this moment with her. Even finding himself, breathing inside of their kiss:

"....love....you...."

straight up getting emotional about a thing that happened in a campaign that ended over a year ago

like. i wrote an ambiguous and biased backstory of a character who is part of an apocalyptic world-ending cult, who deep down wanted to study wizardry but had to frame it as going undercover as an apprentice and stealing secrets from this doddering old archmage to aid her people’s cause . and then she goes and learns wizardry and eventually realizes she wants more for herself and breaks from her cult

and i mean. there’s a lot of ways my dm could have run with that. i was fully expecting that archmage to be furious at my character for lying to and stealing from him. and so when they ran into each other again, i was braced for a fight, or at least an altercation

but instead the archmage went. i knew all along. of course i knew. i’m a divination wizard, silly. i saw a young woman in a bad place and i wanted to help her. i thought that by showing her kindness and creating an environment for her that wasn’t all about power struggles and nihilistic fanaticism that she might realize that there was more out there in the world for her. that she deserved more. you didn’t steal secrets from me, because i gave them to you. i was your teacher. i loved you and love you still

and god i didn’t know where that character was going to end up before then. i thought maybe she could go on a typical wizard hubris spiral, or a revenge quest against her old cult, but in that moment i was like. oh. she is loved. she has new friends, new family. she has a reason to change, a reason to care. her story is just about love, and about making people’s lives better

her alignment shifted from neutral to neutral good soon after. she never stopped being curious, sometimes to the point of foolishness, but she never squandered her teacher’s gift. she left the world better than she found it

is it hard dating another system? /genq

nah, if anything it's wonderful. it's nice to be understood and not have to shy away from how it is being a system. :-)

Throwing this concept @ you (age swap igggg????) imagine if Mutsuki was Juuzou’s mentor 🤭🤭🤭

This isn't the first time I've thought about or started and not finished something of a role-reversal in this way, and let me tell you: mentor!Mutsuki that poor, poor fool. I give him 11 minutes, not just to mentor, but to survive.

Like he would have the beautiful kind heart to see a human being behind the bad things his fellow investigators say about junior investigator!Suzuya and specifically want to give him a chance, but I mean, think about where he would be at Suzuya's age without Suzuya mentoring him. Assuming he continued to be an investigator that long without him. Paired with Suzuya where he was at Mutsuki's age at that time? That Suzuya would eat that Mutsuki alive.
