hm..... pomni taking peoples hand as a repeating image in the show..... happens in ep 1, with ragatha, its kinda evoked with her reaching for the final exit door, ep 2 is pretty blatant with it i dont need to say anything else on that, and in episode 3 the scene with kinger..... episode 4 doesnt have anything with this i dont think (i COULD technically say her raising her hand at the beginning of the ep but that is a MASSIVE stretch and doesnt fit with what the other instances seem to be representing. her waving at gummigoo MAYBE but the image just really isnt present in the episode, looking at it realistically) but im thinking about this...... cus i feel like its probably notable in the dream sequence in ep 2 that its her arm that gets all fucked up

[thepandalion]

ok no I need to talk about this

the reason ralsei is changing is because of susie

the way he said it, darkners that are based on memories of loved ones can "only appear in specific darkness". meaning, originally, ralsei was kris' memory

and, similarly, gerson was presumably Alvin's?

except. gerson came back. it's the third sanctuary. a different dark world. but he's still here. and why?

because SUSIE remembers him. she wrote alvin the letter from him. she fought him and won and came back to look for him. because now he's in her memories, too.

following that logic, of course ralsei is in her memories too. more prominently, too, each time she returns to an adventure. he strays further from the blurry memories kris has, into something that's both theirs and hers

and, while we're at it, maybe ours, too. we shape him with our choices because we're part of this team too

Why are we listening to Charlie and not THE GUY WHO LIVED WITH THE VIRUS FOR 40 YEARS??

Please read this in a tone of someone screaming behind a glass window in a straight jacket - not as an authoritative guardian scolding you. I am tweaking out, not crashing out

“Eclipse is acting weirdly because he’s already violent, so it’s turning him into the opposite.”

this isn’t an Opposite Virus, it’s a Ruin Virus, a Virus specifically made to turn people violent to unleash a large kill rate.

The Virus stems from Patient Zero, Ruin.

Ruin- when they were Sun and Moon, is supposed to be a kill-bot to fit The Creator’s goals. The Creator created DCA’s to be murderers. The Virus that stemmed (OUT OF THE CREATOR’S CONTROL) was LIKELY created BECAUSE OF THAT CODING.

Montgomery Gator is ALSO a violent animatronic. He is not CONSTANTLY aggressive or angry like Eclipse is, but he is probably the most violent-by-default we have seen affected by the virus. He is quick to conclusions, revenge, insulting or degrading, but typically to people he believes deserves it. For example, the time Montgomery tried to KILL RUIN when Ruin was “cured” in TSAMS. He only became MORE. VIOLENT.

THAT’S WHY IT’S SO WEIRD!!! THAT’S WHY RUIN’S SO DAMN CONFUSED! THAT’S WHY RUIN HIMSELF IS SCARED!

You can NOT be taking the opinions from CHARLIE.

She is a child, she has no idea what she’s even dealing with, she has never had prior experience to The Virus or even her own MAGIC before, and Charlie has VERY OFTEN created these ideas that were PROVEN to be false. WHEN SHE PROPOSED THE IDEA that “it affects everyone differently”, she was IMMEDIATELY PROVEN WRONG THROUGH HER OWN CONTRADICTIONS!

Stepping away from in-character, from a writer standpoint -

Davis created the Virus narrative, Davis created Ruin’s story and the character himself, Davis knows what’s going to happen and why things are going the way they’re going.

LISTEN TO “THE DIRECTOR”’S CHARACTERS. Whoever is CONTROLLING THE STORY is the actor you pay MOST ATTENTION TO!!!!

[sunny-knight]

Are you guys insane about them too or is that just me

IDK WHY PEOPLE DONT TALK ABOUT THAT QNA MORE OFTEN LIKE WHAT DO YOU MEAN “THATS THE ONLY THING THAT WOULD CHANGE”

an extra doodle for fun :3

…plus a yap **JUMPSCARE.MP3**

OK SO LIKE I TOTALLY GET IT, I MAY BE TOTALLY WRONG, BUT ALSO GIVEN WHAT WE HAVE SO FAR??? I FEEL LIKE PAPYRUS IS GONNA BE A KID AND IM GONNA HONESTLY BE PRETTY SURPRISED IF HE’S NOT GIVEN THE DIALOGUE WE HAVE FROM SANS RIGHT NOW

IN THE FIRST CHAPTER! Sans asks you to hang out with his “little brother” which may just be for clarification on Tobys part, but it also comes across as emphasizing the “little” part. Me with my sister personally, saying “older” and “younger” became less and less relevant the older we got, just like how Sans and Papyrus in Undertale dont specify.

He also acknowledges that inviting a kid over to hang with an adult is “weird” before saying “itll just be you and my little brother. Since we’re new here, he needs friends.” looking for them to be friends, another thing thatd be…odd if he was an adult. (IM IGNORING UNDERTALES EXISTENCE FOR THIS BIT BECAUSE UNDERTALES WORLD IN GENERAL IS REALLY WEIRD AND DOESNT APPLY TO SOCIAL NORMS 😭 No one in the lightworld here is trying to beat up a child.)

THEN IN CHAPTER 2 Sans says that leaving his brother alone with a stranger in “his house” would be “irresponsible” like he has responsibility over him the way you would if you were taking care of your much younger sibling. Sure in Undertale he very much cares for him, they take care of each other, but more in an equal level way. Sans isn’t responsible for Papyrus

Terumob is an excellent ship to me for a variety of reasons, but one of my highlights is the fact that on one hand you have a blond boy with the most absurd coping mechanisms ever seen by man, who spent years being suffocated by apathy and loneliness and spite only to be absolutely obliterated by a random kid who introduced him to the concept of "You're A Human Person With Flaws", and as a consequence developed an unhealthy homoromantic obsession with him (as rivals of course) until he is obliterated again, but this time with the revelation that his dear rival also is a Human Person With Flaws and that doesn't stop blond boy from loving him even if it gets him killed.

On the other you have another boy with bad coping mechanisms, but that in the tiniest outcome he starts liking blond boy back, it is pretty normal and unrelated to all the dramatic obsessive previously mentioned things. There is no tragic flair its just that his good friend is handsome and kind with him.

There is something about the one spotlight on the center of the room, in between them, but leaning more towards Fadel that (under the assumption that this scene uses a big spotlight from above as a metaphor/visual representation for the ever watchful eyes of God, or that it applies Foucault's theory that being seen is the start of being punished) says a lot about the scene and visually represents the conversations they have. The whole place/room is being watched, with the chairs all standing under the light, so anybody who comes to the meetings is being seen. They come here to share their feelings and lay themselves bare, so it makes sense.

But because Fadel comes here often and it is more his confessional than it is Styles, when it is just the two of them the light leans more towards him. This, together with the fact that they are discussing Fadels problems and his emotions, makes it feel like he is more in the focus, being watched more.

Later, when Style joins him on his lap (and under the light), he shows that he is there not just for Fadel but with him as well. What Fadel will be judged for, so will he. Because they are one and they stand together. This message is, ofcourse, reflected in Styles words, but it is nice that they emphasized it with the lighting as well.

Also (working within Foucault's theory) there is power in seeing and submission/powerlessness in being seen, so for Style to sit on Fadel's lap making it so that they are both unable to see eachother, because they have their head on eachothers shoulders, (other than giving physical comfort also) puts them on an even level of both not seeing or being seen. So that Fadel will no longer feel watched and judged.

(Might also be why Fadel likes stuffing his face into Styles neck. It's hot ofc, but I've discussed many times that Style is very observant, even when they kiss (and more) so kissing Styles neck assures that for a moment he cant look at Fadels face)

Guys, hear me out, again, I hate to be the one saying it, but:

Mohg kidnapping Miquella doesn't even make any fucking sense in hindsight.

Why would MOHG, who has his own confirmed definition of royalty in his dynasty, as an act of rebellion against the system which severely oppressed him, follow the tradition of being the consort to a GOD, for his claim to have legitimacy. Why. It doesn't make any sense for him to suddenly kidnap Miquella, at all.

Honestly, if anyone, it would very likely be Mohg who couldn't give less of a fuck about how his lordship will take place, as long as it does. Bro is extremely sure of his power and abilities, why, why, why would he share the belief a God is neccessary to achieve his goal???

This mf is all about rebellion in oppose to Morgott, on a philosophical level it would be super hypocritical to enable a new status quo by trying to achieve lordship through the current tradition. I mean, maybe that is the point if you still want to interpret him as an 'evil creep' but I personally think, that way, some things fit the narrative even better:

We know that there already was an established system via Ansbach, before the Miquella drama, so why on earth would Mohg, who considers his Pureblood Knights Royalty and creates his own nobles by sharing his blood, follow this atrocious tradition??

That way Ansbach's dying line, would also make a lot more sense. He hopes that the lordship which the Tarnished is trying to achieve, would follow more akin to what Mohg was probably trying to do, becoming a lord for men, not for the gods.

(And also for himself, I still think it was some kind of coping mechanism for Mohg to achieve lordship, so it was a mix out of the psychological need to get power, in order for it to be less likely to be controlled again (tragically ironic, really) and a big middle finger to what the Golden Order did to him.)

Mohg's dynasty used to be centred around having his blood shared. It didn't matter where you come from or what heritage you carry on your back. If you carry around his blood in your veins, you're part of the family.

I guess when Mohg was being enchanted by Miquella, his mindset shifted and suddenly, he became obsessed with creating this whole Formless-Mother vessel-thing. (Which in itself even sounds silly, like how to you push a goddess which is considered formless into a flesh vessel? It would seem fairly counterproductive but that is just some literal interpretation, also considering all the New Formless Mother lore we encountered in the DLC. )

That's when Ansbach – knowing his lord's usual mindset and ambition – probably noticed something is off and fairly easily figured out that Miquella was fucking with Mohg's mind. Hence why he tried to challenge him and lost. Mohg was more important to Miquella's plans than the other way around and opposed a threat to the order Miquella was trying to create. So why did he coccon himself? My guess is that he needed a gateway to the Lands of Shadow + a way to get rid of his golden flesh to escape the influence of the Greater Will. And being supposedly kidnapped, nobody would ever suspect him being behind all of this and annihilating Mohg as a possible, popular competitor to his goals, which was, as we see, extremely effective.

What drew them to each other is that they were both willing to do reprehensible things.

Whether it's to save their own skins, to save their families, to carry out a plan... They're naturally fucked up in the same pragmatic way.

But they can BE their full, "flawed, petty evil creatures" in full light of the other.

DUNDUNDUN SAM WAS JUST WAITING FOR HER TO TURN AWAY WHAT A BASTARD

///

She should've gotten to KILL him at least once, I think. Just to further make their bond weirder.

///

"Don't struggle," she says.

///

ALSO.

I like to watch the unraveling futility of their ambitions. Rowena, Crowley, and Sam were all united by wanting status and ambition to help them escape "a rigged game."

"And it took everything from me, everyone I love-- my family."

///

///

BOOM. There it is.

See, Rowena sees the lengths Sam will go, and she actually RESPECTS it.

Their relationship is built on the comfort of understanding WHY they're willing to gut each other AND each other's loved ones. Strong feelings that they try to dissociate themselves from.

They use their smarts and ruthlessness to protect themselves and their loved ones at all costs.

And they both want to change.

"You were never gonna kill him. There was a time you would've. But not now."

///

There is such an--an OPENNESS about the bad things they've done, and Sam needs that in his life.

///

And in season 15, Rowena knows that Sam wouldn't have been able to kill her at the end there... not unless she guided his hand and helped him.

There's many reasons why I believe that Loki's Zoan is a bird (Oda comparing him to one, Loki's tattoos looking like feathers, the forest god kinda looking like one, me liking birds on a personal level lol) but the most sentimental reason of it all would be Loki having angel wings. Especially in contrast to the demon forms that Imu possessed. Loki, the guy who was ostracised for probably his entire life, looking like an actual angel while saving Elbaph.... that would make me really emotional ngl

Just finished Metroid Prime Hunters

.....I guess it's not so bad.

[froginninjago]

So I was watching ninjago (surprising, I know) and call me an idiot but i just noticed this.

As a kid, I always wondered why the ninja were so colorful. Like, how is this guy dressed in pure white supposed to hide in the middle of the night? And don't get me started on red, which blends in just about nowhere.

It just hit me: What if they weren't MEANT to hide everywhere?

They're meant to blend in with their elements.

Kai, Jay, and Cole don't blend in with the snow. But they aren't meant to.

Zane, Kai, and Jay don't blend in with caves. But they aren't meant to

Cole, Zane, and Kai don't blend in with the sky. But they aren't meant to.

Jay, Cole, and Zane don't blend in with lava or fire. But they aren't meant to.

2024 year in review/art summary. i realized i never made these for 2021-23 either so here's all of them. i think i haven't been drawing as much these past few years, oh well support me on: patreon | kofi | redbubble

[knockknockitsnickels]

OK so like if Purirun is going to be the mid-season cure like they've been building up

are we finally getting another green cure

[andacherrycoke]

It really does make me wonder what else has been shot down by Fox. Because buddie is obviously the thing that we’re more able to clearly connect dots on even before Oliver started saying anything about any of it, but you know it’s not the only thing, we just don’t have the threads to pull on for anything else

[aces-to-apples]

Every time I see screenshots of Veilguard romance options followed by complaints about them not being "actual flirting" I am more and more confused. Like call me crazy but I actually think even calling them "flirt" options is a misnomer that's doing us all a disservice. Like look at them. Look at the heart. It's not about the nebulous concept of flirting, it's about showing care. Showing love. And oftentimes that's not an asinine comment about how someone looks, but rather a piece of affirmation, an offer of help, or a reassurance that their needs (or even baggage) are okay (good, even) because that means they're with you for it.

Remember when the Audrey villain leaks came out and then we saw the offical c4 and s3 outfit reveals and saw the c4 on the isle and the s3 in an auradon forest and we all thought there had been some sort of time spell where Audrey twisted time and instead of the c4 coming to Auradon it was the s3 so Audrey stayed with Ben and there was a whole adventue to fix the timeline? no? just me? okay
