augh. i’m on mobile now so i can’t write out my every detailed thought (though i will probably a longer post on this later with basic descriptions for other people’s refs + for me to reflect on when/if i can draw them out), but the gist of a few of the main scenes in my mind:

- kai: very few personal items that are not clothes or gifts. never buys more food than need be, and always sets up his living space to be something that can easily be repacked and moved elsewhere. if it weren’t for his bedroom and the chidouins’ vase of flowers in the kitchen, you wouldn’t realize anyone even lived in this apartment.

- sara: the chidouins have photos of family hanging up in a lot of places, and mr. chidouin displays a photobook next to his safe on the shelving. their walls are made of dark red wood, having a warm & rich (literal and figurative) feel to it... usual upkeep thanks to kai, but they have a bit of traditional fabric as the table setting + in blankets, and then custom furniture... sara lives at the furthest end of the house, & her window is barred off... but her father gifted her a telescope. and has a desk in her room to focus in evenings so her parents can relax w tv or talking. mr. chidouin has an office on the other end of the house, reinforced soundproofing in these walls. sara has a jewelry box and small music box she keeps in the jewelry box’s drawer.. ahh and so much more.. so much more. i will leave that for later.

- reko: an apartment that’s generally clean (bc she has friends over often), jackets strewn around near the door (she doesn’t wanna stick her jackets in with her normal clothes, and doesn’t have any other closet really) & her shoes haphazardly shoved into the shoe cabinet (except her boots). with posters plastered up in her room, almost always has a candle set on top of her dresser that’s lit. a camera at her bedside, with cool knives in her drawer. has a slightly elevated bed, with instruments tucked in the section beneath & hidden by her sheets falling over the side of the bed. so on... mostly smaller, random things hanging around to indicate she’s here. she has random notebooks she often forgets she leaves out with sketches/notes/lyrics/people's numbers, it's a fun surprise for later! (read: a friend finds it and asks her what the tagalog means and she is like hm. something management won't like. lemme rewrite this chorus and we can try it)

- shin: family has cats... they mostly stay in his room, & with general cleanliness, he rarely reuses clothes and has his laundry hamper at the end of his bed that the cats climb up to sleep with him at night. family keeps a photobook, but has no photos actually hanging around. shin’s bed is against the wall furthest from the window, which has a (now sunbleached) blanket thrown over it instead of a proper curtain because they went so long without actually getting one that’d keep the sun from peering in and waking him up despite staying up until 4am and wanting to sleep in. whole computer + desk + high quality speakers in his room with a specified drawer of labeled hard drives. very clean; despite wavering energy, he sanitizes & replaces his sheets at least once every two weeks.

- keiji: went into this a bit earlier, but yeah... unorganized place. dishes on his kitchen counters instead of cupboards, which just contributes to ingredients being in the living room of all places; has a chair in his room w clothes that aren’t dirty enough to warrant cleaning yet; tools he idly messes with & mail he has to read just tend to pile up wherever he tried settling down to work with it... mostly struggles to manage repetitive menial things on his own.

- kanna: so so many flower & other plants :] has a large tree just outside her window that she used to fantasize of crawling out of her window and climbing down. names plants, though kugie struggles to keep up. has a lot of sketches of plants scattered around because kugie keeps forgetting to buy a folder for her to put them in so they aren’t all over their dresser & the floor, but keeps her plant pattern-pressing book on her at almost all times, otherwise it’s in their shared bedside drawer. kanna is the one who likes changing sheets & finds putting on bedsheets enriching... theey have a full body mirror that the kizuchis’ grandfather made that kanna stuck so many stickers on when she was younger. kugie keeps her backpack next to her bed, in-between the table drawer; kanna has hers hanging on the foot of her bed..

+ more later...ahhi’m. so asleep. goodnigh

#i repeated myself w the last two augghg...!! it's fine.. i hope you enjoy nonetheless...#they are so distinct in my mind's eye... reflecting so many things about eachperson in the most subtle ways #jestersvaguely #yttdposting #long post

Any complaints or problems you have with Ahit game (plot/story wise)?

A lot of my thoughts have already been said before but only main complaint is mu, some weird characterization, and cut content:

Not really a secret that mu was done dirty as a character but from a game standpoint her plot feels kinda clunky? You play the game and get so wrapped up in subcon and dbs and the alps that you kinda forget she’s there, I feel like the game would have benefited from the cutscene with mu and snatcher being added back in, as well as the cafe scene so the mu fight feels more natural that the characters like you and wanna be friends because in canon it doesn’t fully hold up with how they act to you in the fights

OH and I think hatties diary should be more prominent to show her POV more, like think of if after every chapter ends you get to read her respective entry about it! It’d be really cute plus add more insight to her thoughts, similarly to the cafe scene for the other characters youknow? also would have loved if giving mu the timepiece was at her fight when you beat her instead, like as an option to either take it back to your ship or give it to her like so SHE fixes things back to normal and it’s not hatkid having to fix her mess it’s mu learning her lesson, plus it would be more sweet, kinda reminds me of undertale when you get to choose to spare or kill flowey or when you hug asriel it’s like that sorta vibe I’m still mad that the ending doesn’t change, though this is a case where I wouldn’t use the cut cutscene bc hat adult doesn’t exactly fit with the canon game to me so this is the only cut cutscene I wouldn’t add back but yeah if I was a modder I would so try to do these ideas because I think it could definitely help with things being less clunky

I also think the third floor of the manor could have been reused/reworked to be more fun instead of just being scrapped, like imagine if it was made into more of a maze type idea where Vanessa chases you? It has a pretty good layout for a maze type thing already well, though it would need to be edited a bit to not have beta lore but I definitely think it would help, my friend was playing it and he said it was too short I definitely think the third floor could be perfect for a more scary final room with just walls to hide with you have no tables or rooms to use like the other floors it could add more suspense I think! Also I’d love for a few more diaries like more stuff with Vanessa as a kid or meeting prince I would have loved for more letters from him besides the one or maybe he gets his own diary just one page extra would be good like with all the papers on the walls theres good opportunity to show Vanessas decent or maybe diaries from prince where he’s worried about her or something I think it’s a cool idea if the second floor is showing her manipulative tendencies in life and the third gets to show the aftermath, it would add to the creepiness definitely

Also: grooves should have been on the cruise too and or whoever is on the cruise is dependent on who you fought, I also think conductors reasoning for wanting the timepiece should have been reworked because it works for grooves he's the one who is best for for being the one you fight, but I feel like conductors motives just are bad it makes him seem like way more of an asshole which yeah he is but he’s not like a straight up bad scummy guy especially compared to how he acts in the grooves fight, it just doesn’t fit to me like maybe there can be a backstory into the specific movie it was he lost, maybe it had a family member acting in it or maybe that family member wrote it so the movie meant a lot to him and had some sentimental value, but it lost because the writing ofc wasn’t up to par with HIS writing so grooves got the award, youknow just something small like that helps so much, plus to make his grandkids in the cruise feel more natural if we are told about them or his kid or youknow just SOMETHING to make his motive work besides “lol I hate grooves and I’m the best” like grooves at least had more substance in his motives for them to work, his was more justified idk it’s just bothered me ig?

like I said No real complaints complaints but mostly just stuff that could be added to make the characters motivations and personality more set in stone and make the story flow a bit nicer is all? I guarantee if the above mentioned stuff was in the game I think it would fix a lot of the fandom issues lol

oh, you listen to girl in red too?

masterlist.

write more wlw cowards. now take some hc’s disguised as drabbles abt momo, ocha, jirou & mina ty.

content warnings: all characters are aged up, minors dni. f!reader. toys, thigh riding, squirting, creampie, overstimulation, exhibitionism, spanking, scissoring.

MOMO loves creating new toys for you to use in the bedroom. she’s quite the experimentalist, enjoying the way your body squirms, keens, and arches for the toys she created just for you. they’re always the perfect length with the perfect settings. vibrators, strapons, gags, handcuffs, literally anything you could want is absolutely yours. she also loves it when you run your fingers down her body, appreciating the natural curves and dips of her body as she slowly gets more wet for you. please play with her nipples, they’re extra sensitive. don’t be surprised if she gets them pierced eventually, because fuck that’s hot and she wanted to be a little more adventurous. pierce yours with her and she will literally melt on the spot. also much more of a giver in bed. she loves that only she can make you feel that way, and she gives dirty talk like a queen. like it’s smooth, filthy, and 100% momo for you. she’s one to memorize your body, maximizing your pleasure and it feels heavenly. who knew the pretty little rich girl could be hiding such a dirty little aspect of her personality, hm?

KYOUKA adores seeing you in lingerie. there’s something about seeing you in lacy, skimpy fabric that makes her brain forget any sort of cognitive thought. if you wear fishnets, she will literally be soaking her panties before you can even slip your hand down her pants. she has a sex playlist, don’t tell me i’m wrong bc i’m not. it’s slow, reverb, with lyrics that are sultry as she gives you dark hickies along your skin. she doesn’t mind being on top or bottom, as long as she gets to grind against you, that’s all she wants. her moans are the most gorgeous fucking thing you’ve ever heard. music to your ears, the way she sings praises to your name and whines when you make her squirt all over your fingers. speaking of fingers, she’s incredibly good with hers. her nails are finely manicured since she plays instruments and she curls her digits inside your heat just right to feel you tense around them when she finds your g-spot. whenever you whimper out a tiny “ky- kyouka—” for her, a flip switches off and she has you pinned by the wrists against the wall. she can go multiple rounds too, tbh. i can definitely see her being shy, yet willing to explore your bodies together. please praise her. please take care of her. she can get a tiny bit insecure, but she is comfortable enough with you to show off her body, so build her up and show her how gorgeous she can be with your name rolling off her tongue.

OCHAKO gets fairly shy when you worship her body, but please do praise her. call her a good girl, your best girl, princess, sweetheart, anything along those lines and she will literally melt like putty in your hands. ride her thigh, make a mess all over her with your juices ruining the tights beneath her skirt. she loves it, it makes her feel so dirty and she loves it. she also loves being choked, something about having your hands around her neck, being in total control of her just makes her sob with pleasure. her tits bounce so perfectly when you fuck her with her favourite strawberry pink coloured dildo. she’s such a pillow princess, and her entire body shakes with every orgasm you guide her to. she sputters out many thank you’s, despite her hips already grinding down on the dildo again to get you to start moving. her pussy is creaming and overstimulated, but she knows that no one can give her pleasure quite like you do.

MINA goes down on you hard, unapologetically too. out of this whole list, she is most definitely the kinkiest. she ate you out in the bathroom of a pro-heroes only gala event, and your legs were hooked up on her shoulders, your moans loud as you came all over her tongue. calls you a slut, her slut, and then sprinkles in little bits of praise. can and will dom you. can and will finger you. can and will fuck you into next week until your name is the only word you can recall. her favourite position is when she lies on her back, hands behind her head as you ride her strap. your ass is facing her incase she feels the need to give you a nice smack, grinning eagerly as the slapping of your ass against her stomach has her slick coating the sheets below you. also!!! definitely one for scissoring, she just loves feeling your clit against hers. it feels a lot more intimate, and while mina goes hard, she knows when you need some loving too. when you cum together, panting and sweaty, she’ll kiss your swollen lips and call you a princess. because that’s exactly what you are, her princess to spoil rotten.

Rambling thoughts/analyses on even more (!) stills (p.ii):

Part 1 here

11. This is a really fun picture and I’d assume it’s maybe from middle episodes? Instinct is to say its Anthony that they’re looking at bc of the happiness from Lady D, the skeptical look on Mary’s face, and nervous on Kates. Which makes Edwina’s reaction very interesting! She may be in a phase of souring on him (which makes me think it’s not super early). Hopefully she isnt mad at Kate. They could very well be looking at someone else tho! Another thing ppl have noticed is that Kate’s dress is the same fabric as her pap boat dress but the wig and jacket are different. so I don’t think it’s the same scene. In an interview Simone said Kate starts out “wanting to blend into the background” so it makes sense to reuse dresses bc we haven’t seen the same dresses on Edwina. All in all love this still. It’s so funny and their little line up of faces so charming.

12. Another great still and this one is most mysterious to me of them all! Anthony and Lady D dancing and laughing is so sweet to me also spot little greg in the background. This is a smaller party at Bridgerton house I believe and people have speculated a birthday or maybe (??) an engagement ball. Brazilian fan sources say this is ep 2 but we have no confirmation of that and it doesn’t make much sense to me because why is Anthony smiling so big? What occasion? And what sort of fallout/drama could there be so early on (see maids in the background reading whistledown and the fallout of it in the next still). Also interesting because since I think this is bridgerton house, they aren’t in the country but that’s where middle eps take place? I’d love to know when this one is so hopefully someone finds out soon. Also note the markings on the floor -- I *think* someone said it may have some cultural significance (don’t quote me on that) I don’t remember who said it or what it meant though and I can’t find the tweet. I’m interested to hear if it does have significance, what it is because it’s just interesting to know and it might be an indicator as to what type of event this is. LMK if you know once I open up my asks again! EDIT: It’s prob just paint.

13. Okay onto the next one from the same event. See the big cake in the background. It’s a celebration of something for sure and they allow kids to be there so birthday seems like a fun idea. In this still they’re clearly dealing with the consequence of whistledown. Mary is worried and Kate is kind of still and concerned and Edwina is...spiteful. Whether she’s mad at Anthony or at Kate or the ton OR on her sister’s behalf is so interesting. Notice we haven’t seen an Anthony/Edwina interaction beyond ep 2 (that scene of them dancing in the teaser is confirmed like the second ball in the show from Charithas q and a). But we also know that Edwina/Anthony dance in the pink ball in episode 4 because we saw bts pic of them rehearsing so this shall be interesting how it plays out. Other things: they all look hot. Love Mary’s hair. Love the color of Kate’s dress. Ed and Kate have matching jewelry.

Okay now quick commentary on some of the posters before back to stills

14. Love Kate’s dress so much. Peacock feathers and it’s the same scene is as when she’s fanning herself but that doesnt necessarily mean that’s her *actual* pall mall dress? i would say it’s most likely tho.

15. BY FAR THE MOST INTERESTING POSTER. First off love pens dress it’s the one from episode 7 still (which i suppose can mean anything but it’s interesting they chose that one!) I love the flowers but theyre real sus to me. Does she hang out in the garden and see the bees sting/expose Kathony in whistledown? Am I just overthinking this? Lol.

16. See Eloise’s dress from ep 7 still. Now that I think on it more I don’t think Pen or El will be present for Pall Mall.

17. Now I’m only including this because it looks so weird. They do all the actresses so dirty when the mamas (milfs) are the most important in this show. No mary (BOOO!!) and portia looks so out of place. Netflix. Do better.

18. Last poster bc these are the only ones that interest me. Love the heart wig. Kinda dumb that they’re keeping the pall mall balls in even her still. Also I know she’s not in front of AH here but...they’re not dragging the queen to aubrey hall just so she doesn’t miss out on the drama? That would be fuckin stupid imho. I guess QC feels isolated and also throws herself into gossip but inviting herself to the Bridgerton’s party is maybe a step drastic for her characterization.

Okay back to stills that came out this morning bc honestly the posters are just kinda underwhelming. They don’t inspire many thoughts other than I wish they were more action oriented. like you think ppl are gonna love them and be enticed just because of the mallets? eh. They could’ve done better but s1 posters are bad too. Anyway I don’t wanna talk about the posters beyond this.

19. Pen and Eloise in Eloise’s room! This room was featured in the Architectural Digest article but it’s unclear whether it’s her aubrey hall room or the one in bridgerton house. Did Daphne give eloise her room at the end of s1? Am I making that up? I cannot be bothered to check myself. My gut is bridgerton house tho bc Pen and El were there in ep 7 and why would they still be hanging around Aubrey hall? This goes back to the big group photo in front of Aubrey hall where my gut said Kathony were married but that didn’t make sense based on their location. Maybe they just spend time at AH in later episodes too? ANyway onto the actual still. Eloise is still wearing her dresses way up to the neck. Pen’s dress is still cute. And their faces--Pen excited el overwhelmed? Is it about the debut or about a guy (would explain the reactions) or something else entirely?

20. Love that we’ll be getting an awkward dinner party! Kate’s wearing that color again and it’s clearly at Lady D’s house bc she’s head of the table but also the red curtains. Looks like Mary’s family is there which makes me wonder what that relationship is? Is her (I assume) sister supportive? Is the husband kind? Would Lady D even invite them if they aren’t? I love that this almost confirms Mary gets an arc or at least some interesting relationships beyond the main cast to play off of.

21. Last one. Episode 2x04 Pen looking over the pink ball (shits really gonna go down there isnt it?) I forgot to include this earlier. Oh well. Nothing to say really other than I like the idea of her overlooking everything. It alludes to the looming and seemingly all knowing presence of LW. Dress is fine wig is weird.

I know there’s ones I haven’t analylzed like the theo sharpe one from weeks and weeks ago (nothing to say there) and some bts photos dropped today. I will say there was that Lady D + Mary photo of them in a carriage in the costumes from the big group photo in front of Aubrey Hall. So clearly Lady D and Mary are involved in whatever the Bridgertons are watching in the trailer in some way or coming up on it? Maybe they’re sharing a carriage with Kate and Edwina, maybe not. Maybe Anthony goes down the steps to greet the 4 of them or maybe he’s already with them.

Anyway. This is tiring and i bet more still are still to come or maybe more posters? (No Daph, no solo Kathony, no mary?) They’ve also teased pall mall so much I’m surprised there isn’t a still of that. If we get episode numbers or even titles maybe I’ll do another update.

Good luck to you for reading all this.

📺oh my god tele is writing fluff??? Wow what a new concept who woulda guessed /s

Anyway… been thinking about how some of the hermits enjoy gardening and wanted to do something cute with it :)

Grian:

-mostly does flowers and hedges

-you two always work together on deciding which flowers go where and what flowers you are planting this season

- he was the one that got you into gardening and prides himself with being the one who taught you everything you know

- tries very hard to make hedge sculptures but it’s much harder than it looks. You tease him about how wonky they always come out

- you two always try to poke the others face with your dirty gloves when they aren’t looking to get dirt on their face. This has resulted in a few play-fights turned tickle attacks

Doc:

-takes his gardening very seriously

-plants mainly vegetables but he has one strawberry bush

-100% does that trick where you paint rocks to look like strawberries so when crows peck at them it hurts their beak and they don’t come back. He watches them through his window and laughs at them when they fall for it

-you try to help him with his garden but he can get kinda bossy and fussy about how things need to be done. He wants only the best and the best only for his garden, and if that means doing everything himself then so be it

-it’s not all bad because now you set to sit and watch him work. Definitely asks you “you like what you see?” When it gets hot and he takes his lab coat off. You do like what you see

-when the vegetables are ready for harvest you always use them to make dinner that night, working together to cook your guys meal

-will let you have ONE (1) strawberry straight off the bush if you ask nicely

-loves to admire his work. Every morning he sits outside and looks over his garden while he drinks his coffee

Beesuma bc I miss him:

-has the biggest most efficient greenhouse you’ve ever seen, also counts as a bee sanctuary with how many of them live in and around it

- grows “useful” plants. You have no idea what he means by this.

-turns out embracing being a bee means he now knows a lot about plants, and all the things they can be used for! Whenever you get a minor injury he drags you to the greenhouse while infodumping about what plant will fix you right up

-all the bees are very friendly and affectionate towards you. Love nuzzling your cheek or resting on top of your head. (This includes X)

-you have way too many jars of honey because X won’t stop giving them to you when you come over

Gem:

-she has a small orchard of fruit trees

-they’re all organized and labeled with beautiful signs she painted herself

-she’s memorized the perfect time to harvest each of the different fruits, and she’s always right wow these are some good apples

-when it comes to picking the fruit you both take turns carrying the other on your shoulders because both of you are too short to reach the branches normally

-invites you and a few other hermits over for a picnic of treats and baked goods she made using the fruit y’all picked together

-she always sends you home with a basket of assorted fruit when you stop by to visit

-either preserves, dries, or turns all the unused fruit into jams/spreads/butters before they can spoil. If she’s too late and they do spoil they just get turned into fertilizer for the trees. Reduce reuse recycle baby!!!

I sit with these thoughts,,,, I adore the soft so much aaaaaaaa I so feel the missing beesuma so imma ramble about him for a second-

The idea that for some reason you're just a bee magnet is so goddamn cute. Suma can see his hives enjoying a quick rest to get some quick pets or snuggles from you before buzzing off back to work and he just kinda understands. Plopping his weight down on you does have a magic feeling to it

In conclusion, I hold all the headcanons very gently

#ask #📺 anon #c: grian #c: doc #c: xisuma #c: gem #tw. suggestive #because of that one doc line specifically lmao

Ok, so I have seen almost every English version of Cinderella made since 1950 and it is my favorite fairy tale. So I saw the new Amazon version and I have a LOT OF THOUGHTS: (Spoilers)

I am here for Cinderella remakes, and I really hoped this one would enchant me. But...it didn't. I've read several reviews to help me specify just what didn't work for me, and I think it ultimately comes down to discord in nearly every element. Discord: too many notes at the same time; no unity, no connection. I'm all for pulling popular tunes, but they have to fit the character's emotion. I'm all for powerful female choreography, but having a chorus of women violently pelvic thrusting in ball gowns was...just weird. The artistic choices have to fit the narrative.

All the women in the story are trying to assert some authority and agency in a world we are consistently told is exclusively patriarchal "because tradition." But it feels like that tone clashed with the producers' desire to include all the fairytale elements they felt audiences would expect. I think they could've done it, but they didn't get it right. It would be a fine line to tread, bc on the one hand you are talking about female disenfranchisement and lack of agency/rights, and on the other you’re trying to do fairytale love--the subject matter is really quite a heavy burden for that storyline.

I've also seen comments that the cinematography and pacing were a mess, but I didn't get past my "do I like this?" vibe enough to notice.

A few other assorted critiques: There was no chemistry between the prince and Ella, there was a lot of tell and not show (you can have a chorus sing it multiple times but I'm not gonna buy it unless you back it up with acting), and also the prince was not appealing in the least. Like, maybe that was the point, but if so, forget the romance plot altogether bc if I'm not falling for the guy, why would our heroine? There was more chemistry between the prince and his manservant (braid guy) than between Ella and him. There was nearly more depth of character in the manservant than in the prince as well, which is saying something.

One of the most annoying instances of tell and not show was Ella’s appearance. They kept talking about how dirty she was, and the stepmother even says “you would be so pretty if…” but the only real difference in Ella’s appearance is that she has a darker complexion… So what are we saying here, that she is unappealing bc she isn’t white enough? Admittedly that is reading into it a bit much, but just put some damn ash on her face and it’s a non-issue!

Moments of magic included the original songs (why did they not do the whole score this way???), and the performances from the sterling cast members as you'd expect. Also, I loved the building they chose for Ella's family estate/basement. (Oh, and also if you are going to turn the stepmother into Mrs. Bennett, then you have to show the financial difficulties in some wayyyy...)

Overall, I could see what could've been a homerun concept in the script. I wanted to love it. I really did. But the execution fell woefully short for me.

**If I could, like Fab G, wave my wand and fix some things:**

-All original songs, not poorly fitting pop covers. The worst offenders in my eyes were “Material Girl,” “What A Man,” and “Find Me Somebody to Love.” The ball song should be about the princesses/stepsisters’

/Gwen/Ella’s aspirations, and maybe the prince’s too, if this fix version means he gets character development, like, say, a superobjective.

-We open as before, with the narrator telling us how tradition has ruled everyone’s lives for years. As the townsfolk sing, we get the feeling that Ella isn’t the only one who is not so happy with the status quo. Ultimately everyone will learn through Ella that they don’t have to be struck in the same old ways.

-As she works in the house we see Ella using her flair for fashion, her gift for making women feel beautiful to act a modiste/lady's maid to her stepmother and stepsisters. We see her transform an outfit/hairdo with a clever and fresh idea noone would have thought of. We get that speech about “it doesn’t matter if I think you’re beautiful. What matters is how you feel...etc.” Insert song about fashion and how amazing women are just in general, with makeover magic. (She didn’t feel like a fashion designer to me, I didn’t feel that creative spark/passion. I needed them to amp this up.)

-Ella’s personal appearance reflects her gift for inventive style as well. (I really struggled with her being on one hand a fashion designer and on the other hand having no color in her dress, AND having everyone talk about how untidy her appearance was (which again, it wasn’t. Also, were she really covered in cinders and ash, she wouldn’t be able to handle fabric without making it dirty….)

-Ella’s dresses are made of found and reused materials, cleverly crafted. Like a set of old drapes a la Sound of Music, or forgotten antique dresses harvested for their fabric. After the prince buys her dress she can afford to buy new fabric and make her pink dress (that then gets ruined by Vivian.)

-If we *are* going to keep the idea of borrowed pop songs, then at some point all of the women sing No Doubt’s “I’m Just A Girl,” illustrating how their gender in this society makes them second class citizens: the stepsisters, Vivian, and princesses have to marry to gain opportunity/privilege, Gwen can’t get a word in on state matters, the queen is constantly shut down by her husband, etc. However, better for them to sing an original song that reflects this--maybe have “Dream Girl” come in earlier and get expanded/reprised.

-We needed to see the hardship that Vivian spoke of, bc I never saw it. Why remarry when you are clearly a wealthy widow?

-I still haven’t figured out how to give the prince a character that Ella could fall in love with. Show his kindness separate from supporting Ella? Give him an “I want” song that isn’t about his father wanting him to get married? Give him some kind of point? We’ve seen the “I don’t want to be king and am lost until this amazing girl inspired me” trope work before, but your boy has to have more to him than this guy did.

-I also would like to find some way to extend the insta-love a bit. I’m a huge fan of meeting as commoners, as in the 1997 Cinderella, and there, they make a connection that properly works. Maybe it all boils down to a lack of chemistry between the actors? And/or give me better lyrics? Hmm.

Anywho, I'm just rambling. So sad to see this fall so short of its potential.

notes from the palm springs commentary !! 🏝

i know not everyone has access to hulu and i know i'd be gutted if i couldn’t watch it too so bc i'm lucky enough to have an american friend who let me use her hulu account i thought i'd share the commentary with you all on here <3

- their first bit of commentary is “there’s a title” (cristin) and “there’s a goat” (andy)... 10/10 anaylsis thanks guys

- andy joked that they talked about waiting for an earthquake but decided they didn’t have the budget to wait that long (he said the glowing lights at the end were real tho 🙄)

- andy: “we’re gonna start off pretty racy” djfdjfkdjgh

- “for all those kids out there, the b99 fans, you probably don’t wanna watch this”.... but andy,, we absolutely Do

- andy was cristin’s least favourite person in the movie

- nyles spread eagle on the bed was in the script not an acting choice

- according to andy there were 700,000 bugs just hatched where they filmed the wedding scenes that they had to edit out in post (also it was suuuuuper cold and cristin was shivering)

- ANDY CALLED HIMSELF A BUTT UGLY WEIRDO. NO SIR. U ARE THE FURTHEST THING FROM THAT.

- the dance move when he clapped his hands over his head “lightly hurt his schlong”

- they had 20-30 options for orchid explosion by fournier, cristin pitched some too that she “does not remember!” (she said that very cute)

- they talk about how great june squibb is and how andy is impressed that she wasn’t complaining about the cold/shooting at 5am/the fact that they improved a lil bit. “she doesn’t not give a what”

- during the make out scene on the rock cristin goes “ohhh ~spicy~”

- they also had to have a snake wrangler come out before they shot that scene and he was like “uhh i think it’s good?”

- andy was excited about having to get shot by an arrow when he was reading the script (it was also the moment they realised this movie was zanier than first thought)

- the cave was the same place they shot the old batman movies

- they started working on palm springs on november 9th 2016…. hence the wedding date

- cristin said they did about 30 takes (at least) of her opening her eyes/sitting up.. basically the entire first half of the first day shooting she spent doing the same thing

- “i just think you’re the coolest cristin, way to go man!” “you too andy!”

- the beer is fictional and has a meaning behind it.. the tortoise is to do with a myth about the universe or smth

- andy wants someone to make the beer fr

- “so here is cristin in the desert pretending to be hot” “he means physically” “TEMPERATURE HOT… i have no opinions on her appearance”

- they wanted to skip past the set-up-y parts to avoid it being too groundhog day and add diff dynamics and comedic elements that come from that

- according to andy, nyles has been in the loop an “insanely long time” (cristin and andy like that you don’t know the exact number of years bc however many years it’s been nothing has changed for nyles)

- cristin’s fondest memories were spending days in that dusty ass car together (i too would like to be that girl in his car)

- “i like your hat” “of course you do” was improved by andy and jk

- andy said jk is a “national treash”

- andy loved shooting the montage w jk (and he thinks that montage + the scene at the end is why jk signed up to do ps)

- “i went full butt” - andy samberg, 2021

- HE HAS A STUNT DOUBLE CALLED SETH WHO HAS A SIGNIFICANTLY BETTER BUTT THAN HIM (but andy’s butt was funnier so they went with his)

- the very last shot of the movie was nyles getting the handjob in the car

- max or other andy i can’t remember who talked for a while about how talented our andy is. can’t wait for that oscar nom!!!!!

- if andy were in a time loop he’d try to catch up on shows for a few years (and then try and leave)

- cristin is horrified that he’d choose to watch all of MASH to get him through a time loop

- cristin LOVED filming all the deaths

- andy said that their dance scene in the denim jacket replaces every iconic dance scene ever like fame/dirty dancing/etc etc and he’s right

- he dropped her in that scene bc his arms are “weak and floppy like a baby calf”

- the tattoo moment was the only fully improved scene

- they REALLY wanted it in the movie

- cristin insisted on the hook hand and eye patch and they obliged and she said she kept the hook hand and put it on her mantle and andy was like “prove it prove it prove it prove it prooooooove it”

- she did Indeed prove it

- orange in the movie significies intimacy and that whole montage is coloured orange to show them falling in love

- they loved shooting the tent scene

- the first night they filmed it there was a sandstorm and rain and they had to hide under a tarp and they came back the next night and they were able to get looser with it bc it was the last day of shooting and they’d basically done the whole thing the night before

- the dinosaurs bit was a “symbolic moment between the characters - they are 2 people who don’t believe they can be loved so they’re feeling something impossible and therefore they should see something impossible”

- the wake-ups were like an acting exercise in a way bc each wake up was diff emotionally based on where they were in the loop

- nyles finally cares about something (her) for the first time in maybe hundreds of years and he immediately gets slapped down :(((

- “suck my dick officer bitch” was cristin’s ad lib!!! (if anyone makes a montage of her life’s work she would like it to either begin or end w suck my dick officer bitch, andy said why not both)

- “for some reason i rolled up one of my sleeves [after nyles woke up after their fight] and then we couldn’t get out of it so that was a lesson! it was a terrible choice”

- andy loves the overhead pool shot

- everytime andy watches the confrontation at the wedding he feels terrible for tala, we love an empathetic king

- re: roy’s arc andy talks about how important it is to relish what you’ve got and it was v v v v sweet

- everyone laughed so hard in the arrow/garbage bin scene

- apparently tyler’s shirtlessness in the shower was distracting for people in early tests and they had to tone it back w colour correction 💀

- cristin was like “did that happen when i had to take my shirt off?” and andy was like “uh huh yeah”

- the goat was on set for a couple of days + apparently cristin would talk to it in between takes 🥺🥺🥺 can she get any cuter

- max talked about how they lucky they were to get andy and cristin and how the movie wouldn’t have worked without them, they were so on the same wavelength and there was an early meeting where nobody else could get a word in bc they were talking so much

- nobody was in it for the paycheck, “it was for the love, and dare i say it, for the art” <3

- they took 3-4 nights to shoot the entire wedding, andy can Not stress enough how much they were rushing

- they haven’t busted out any bloopers yet bc they used pretty much every frame they could/reused them in different places

- cristin doesn’t want to know if nana knows bc the mystery of it is what makes the movie so great!

- andy said there’s no definitive answer to a lot of stuff bc a lot of the people working on the movie had diff opinions

- the french song w the slo mo bit of sarah in the bar was cristin’s choice

- andy is v confused why people think spuds is nyles’ dad,, he’s just tricking him into getting a ride and andy’s sorry to everyone who thought it was real

- cristin liked that the payoff at the end felt like payoff while still staying true to who nyles and sarah are and not just super romantic bc “it’s a romcom!” [andy said throwing his arms in the air]

- cloudbursting was andy’s idea from the very first meeting about the movie but we been knew

- andy: “here’s the ending! nobody knows what it means!”

what're your thoughts on castlevania (the netflix show, not the game, ive never played the game) what do you like, what don't you like? make it as long as you want. i don't care if i have to scroll for 5 minutes. go feral (personally trevor is extremely hot and i would like to date sypha. i'm not really into alucard's whole sickly victorian child aesthetic, yknow?)

oh god this is way too long, but you did say to make it as long as i want, and i have a lot of thoughts that i need to inflict on the world

i played two castlevania games, both from the nintendo gameboy era, so please don’t get mad at me, gamers

details below the cut, but since i’ll be talking about season three, i need to preface this with content warnings for mentions of: graphic violence, rape and sexual violence, racism, and the holocaust

before i get into it, i usually don’t go for alucard-type characters either, but knowing that he was redesigned to be bishounen sexy specifically because the boring, middle aged man look he originally had in the games wasn’t appealing makes me enjoy him. and he’s fun with trevor and sypha

do like:

the voice acting

it’s all good. i can’t think of any characters whose voices were awkward or fit poorly. they don't make sypha’s va use the standard flat affect or false high voice women tend to be assigned, trevor sounds suitably worn out but not monotone, and alucard sounds exhausted but in a sexy way

and the spanish dub is killer, arguably superior

the animation & design

it isn’t full-on artsy, but it’s definitely got a distinctive style that’s easy to look at. the color use and effects are gorgeous. it’s a story set in the medieval era, and the mixture of desaturated and oversaturated elements works so well with that

dracula’s castle and the belmont bunker aren't revolutionary in design, but they didn't need to be. they're suitably creepy and empty, and i enjoyed them

the monsters were unique enough to have obvious different types, and the scene where a monster commits blasphemy in a church by accusing a priest of committing blasphemy was good writing

lisa

she shows up to a stranger’s spooky home and scolds him for being rude. she really looked an ancient vampire in the face, told him he had no manners, then had a kid with him. what a phenomenal woman. 11/10, no notes

“start with me, and i’ll start with you.” you know what? i’d fall in love, too

dracula

this ancient, unfriendly vampire let a human woman walk into his home and tell him he’s got no manners. and that made him fall in love with her. just like that. lisa walked in and handed him his ass, and dracula thought “oh i love her”. and when she was killed (more on this in the bad section), he raised literal hell to destroy the world for doing it

speaking of lisa being killed, it fucks me up that it happened because she convinced him to leave the castle and experience the world. he left her alone to see what she loved so much, only to come back and find that the people he’d come to like- the people lisa had loved so much it drove her to help in a way that got her killed- had burned her at the stake. i love a good tragedy, and that’s good tragedy

the way he weeps when he has to fight alucard?? during a showdown in their home?? the “i must already be dead” moment in alucard’s childhood bedroom??? when he speaks to lisa about killing their boy, her greatest gift to him??? poetic cinema.

the trio’s dynamic

three bisexuals with two total brain cells and only alucard bothers using them. incredible

i went so hard for this ot3. it's right there and so good

sypha

she initially seems to be assigned the role of the adult™️ ie she's the only woman and gets stuck being responsible, but surprise! she’s just as annoying and dumb as alucard and trevor. she dropped a castle she didn’t understand on the ground and didn’t think too hard about it. then she argued about breaking it. i love her

if we don’t get an ot3, then she needs to have a dumb gf

alucard

he's got a stupidly low neckline and lower pants. they really leaned into ayami kojima’s redesign, as they should have. his little curl annoys me, though. why the fuck does he have a random section of hair that’s like three inches long when the rest is shoulder length or longer? love that he really looks like lisa

if you say he's canonically bisexual and polyamorous, no he isn't. yes he is. no he isn't :)

trevor

disgusting. a nasty man whose appearance mirrors his state of mind. he's 50 mental illnesses in a dirty jacket and his coping mechanism is… alcohol? maybe? he’s a mess, and i dig it

him trying his trick of kneeing alucard in the balls during their fight? and finding out it doesn't work? (which…… why doesn't it……?) juvenile but suitable

hector

his love of animals makes him my favorite. normally, i won’t touch anything with this much animal death, but i’m willing to set that aside because hector loves them so much. he’s so sweet and kind, and he loves his monster pets

yes he sided with dracula and has some really fucked up ideas about what constitutes humane treatment of people, and yet i love him. 11/10, but i have a lot of notes

isaac

i support him, including his murdering and his decision to support dracula. dracula throwing him out of the castle to save him was so cruel in that it was an attempt at kindness from a man who hated the whole world, but it was against isaac’s wishes

his time with the captain was great

idk enough about islam to know if he's portrayed correctly and haven’t seen any complaints, but given the show’s track record……… i wouldn’t be surprised if it’s not great

the forging

very cool. fresh and interesting! hector creating pet friends is cute and heartbreaking. love isaac for his dedication to reducing, reusing, and recycling

season 2’s big battle with all those vampires

the new version of “bloody tears” is phenomenal

this goes back to the animation, but listen……. it's so good. i loved the smoke vampire, and alucard’s fluid wolf transformations. his flying sword looked really good, and incorporating them together? super good to watch. and trevor’s whip?

the type and level of violence are suitable for what it is. it would be weird for a gritty show like this to be bloodless, but i don't think it would work if it were bloody to the extent of a slasher. it's also more clean violence, if that makes sense. you don’t linger just to look at gore; you see it because stabbing someone spills blood. the games weren't about extended, gritty scenes of realistic murder, so the show sticking with quick, slice and dice type fights fit with what i remembered of them

please watch this fight if you don’t remember it or haven’t seen it (part 1, part 2)

trevor’s whips

trevor’s weapons don’t follow the physics of normal whips, and they shouldn't. they’re heavily stylized and clearly a fantasy weapon, but they still have rules that they (mostly) have to obey. his morning star-whip hybrid in particular is so good

it’s easy to follow, too. a lot of times, speedy weapons disappear, which is an understandable effect but one i find boring because there’s nothing for me to do. i’m just sitting on my ass with nothing to do

trevor’s whips don’t disappear. they’re fast, but you can always see them. and they have weight! you can see them slow down and gain speed. i don’t need physics to be real; i want movement to be pleasing, and that’s exactly what i get with the whips

don’t like:

fridging lisa

she could have been kidnapped (possibly make dracula think she was dead bc people want to lure out her scary demon husband, idk), then s2 could have ended with her and dracula reuniting as he died. she and alucard go on a trip together to attempt to make amends for the pain dracula wrought in lisa’s name. orrrr she dies a tragic death with him and we’re left to hope that they find each other in the afterlife. do vampires get to go to the afterlife? can alucard reintegrate? can he be happy with his new friends? or will he go back to his crypt and sleep again? will he ever be rediscovered? if so, what will he do? deep questions. i would prefer to cogitate on these instead of experiencing the shitshow that is s3

season 3

they should have ended it with dracula’s death. the quality of storytelling goes down immediately. just plummets. i’m sure there were problems in the first two seasons, but this one is so bad, i genuinely can’t remember

but i may as well get specific, so here we go:

abandoning alucard

trevor and sypha leave their friend alone in his childhood home where he just killed his father. where they helped him kill his father who, as i’ve said too many times, raised literal hell to get revenge for people burning alucard’s mother to death

yt they don’t talk about alucard. they don’t make any plans to touch base ever again. trevor’s entire family got killed. sypha’s culture, from which she’s now estranged, is family-centric. if ever two people should give a shit about alucard and know why alucard shouldn’t be left on his own, it's them

so what the hell is going on?

trevor and sypha’s relationship

look. it could be good. it would be better with alucard but they could be together and it could work fine

but this……….

trevor hates what they're doing. he hates traveling around and fighting. he's clearly tired and deeply depressed

sypha not only doesn't care enough to address it (did they forget the first two seasons?? sypha is annoying partly because she doesn't stop poking people) she might not even notice? yes, she's having fun, but trevor is basically dead on his feet in front of her

racism

hector, sumi, and taka all got done dirty

sumi and taka

i hate the way they died. i hate that i’m certain that the plot won’t bring japan back into the narrative (or if it does, i don’t trust it not to be shitty). i hate the fact that by killing them off, i’m not going to get any more of them. they were interesting!!

speaking of the japanese vampire: the biphobia, arguably, given what happens with alucard

the addition of sexual violence

i don’t need or want lenore. if all she’d done was manipulate hector, i could have lived with that. she’s a villain, so she does bad things. that’s the point. but what she did was a massive escalation. we hadn’t had any sexual violence, and then the last few episodes gave us

tumblr feminists who love her for how she treated hector need to be quarantined until their brain worms have been cured

everything that happens to hector

what was this shit? why did i open my netflix app and tap castlevania and find them making this man walk around naked in the cold to torture him? and starving him? he got manipulated, degraded, chained up, collared like an animal, and raped. and why? to show us how bad lenore is? that the other vampires are bad because they let her do it? i didn’t sign up for this

the holocaust reference

the imagery at the end of s3 when it’s revealed that the judge has been killing people he’s decided are undeserving to live and collecting their shoes in that barn was chillingly close to images of shoes taken from victims of the holocaust. there's no reason to invoke the holocaust here. it’s unnecessary and in bad taste

#asks #anonymous #long post #anti-castlevania netflix #i guess #cw rape #cw holocaust mention #cw racism #cw holocaust #all of these are tags i didn't anticipate using on my stupid sideblog #i'll probably find a bunch of typos in like 12 hours rip me #but i feel bad for taking so long

OKAY LIVE REACTION TO RIKAS BACKSTORY DLC HERE WE GO

okay so spoilers again lol

okay so i thought when you played the scret ending 1? riaks backstory was free? e-e

HAHA NVM WAS JUST THE FIRST EPISODE time to go buy 330 hour glasses ANYWAYS

okay seriosuly thing for people who dont like Rika, for what she did. You should honestly play her backstory.. it really could clear some things up for you, and it may chnage your mind, just abit hopefully.

you shouldnt just say no to story, just because you don’t like her.

Of course, if you really dont want to read it fine, but it can probably really help.

Episode 1

this god lady sounds like Jaehee tbh SO CUTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE OH Mina is Rikas real name :3 How cute already liking this. WONT BE ABLE TO AFFORD THE RETS OF IT THOUGH

Mina/Rika, they really didnt deserve what happened to them.

HOLY FCUK I HONESTLY THOUGHT MIKA WAS FUCKING RIKA BUT IT WAS THE OTHER WAY AROUND OKAY OR AM I GETTING TI MIXED UP?

okay gotta buy 330 hours glasses but THEN ILL CONTINUE MY REACTION

OKAY IM BACK TO REACT AND TO CRY OKAY COOL

the game didnt like me buying more hourglasses o it decided to messwith mu audio.

okay had to restart my phone THANKS ANOTHER SETBACK

Episode 2

okay so, i like Mika back here. BUT WHAT I SAW IN THE V ROUTE, thats not cool Mika. you were kinda okay? you were already a little manipulative to a three year old. “My little sister, should always have short hair” how about you shut up. Twins? All she ever wated was to be loved and not taken away from her “Twin”, Maybe thats why she cared so much for Saeran and Saeyoung before she ddi what she did. Mika no, no. You’re the one who put those awful things in Minas/Rikas mind ugh okay i go back to not liking her, that was very fast.

Okay grown up Rika/Mina, okay rika i like you when you arent doing ur creepy eyes. UGH honestly im so mad at Mika, honestly the fuck. CUTE PICTURES OF V AND RIKA YES okay i know, i like V and all but tbh they were cute together.

excuse me V you shouldve said THATS WHY I ADORE UR SUN BC THATS ALL SHE NEEDED TO HEAR, she didnt want to hear that you loved her because of her darkness. She wnated someone to love her, or show her a tiny bit of warmth so she could find the light inside her. So, so far, Mika is the one who introducded her to this “darkness” SO UNLESS RIKAS BACKSTORY CAN GIVE ME A REASON TO NOT DISLIKE MIKA AND FORGIVE HER I WILL GLADLY TAKE IT.

Episode 3

THATS THE FIRST THING I OPEN UP TO?

UR SO CREEPY, WHY DID GOD SEND YOU? THE FUCK WHAT KIND OF ASSHOLE ADOPTIVE PARENTS ARE YOU

okay she died. thats sad but like

NOT AFTER WHAT YOU DID

CUTE PHOTO OF RIKA YES

Thoughts

thst was um

one crazy ride

AND I WAS THERE FOR IT

so glad i read it.

even if you dont like rika at all

please do

its worth it.

as you can see my thoughts were jumbled in the actual live reaction

but it makes alot of sense kind aof?

im to lazy to write a review so thats the best you’re gonna get.

Its really good, to actually understand why Rika/Mina/Serena turned out the way she was.

i mena i already forgave her in the V ending

but even though she did those bad things, if someone just loved her and didnt feeed her with horrible views of the world, she was still a caring girl even though the darkness took a hold of her,

Im not glad of what happened to her, but if it didnt we would have never even met anyone. so as mucha s i hate to say it, im glad of what happened, and 100% glad we could help her through with it.

Okay, well that was fun.

There are a lot of everyday things that many of us wrongfully believe were invented in modern times. This is understandable, since many of these objects require sophisticated forms of technology, or were only introduced to the public in the 19th or 20th century. However, as surprising as this might sound, a lot of supposed “modern” ideas were actually invented and used by ancient civilizations thousands of years ago. Hopefully, after reading this, you’ll gain a new kind of respect and admiration for the ingenuity and intelligence of ancient people.

#1 Prosthetic Limbs Prosthetic limbs are a great source of hope for a lot of disabled people around the world. With the use of these limbs, amputees can function normally again. They may look like they’ve been invented in the 20th century, but do not let their seemingly-complex mechanism and structure fool you. They’ve been around since before Jesus Christ was born! Archaeologists have unearthed a rigid material, dated back to the fifth Egyptian Dynasty (2750-2625 BC) that could easily support broken bones. Aside from that, in 1858, researchers discovered an artificial limb made of wood and copper in Capri, Italy. It was dated back to 300 BC. Of course, these primitive prosthetic legs were nowhere as good or efficient as the ones we have today, but they certainly were ahead of their time. Their real development began when Ambroise Pare, a French surgeon, introduced amputation to the medical world. Since then, numerous advancements in the science of making prosthetics have been made. For example, in 1863, Dubois Parmelee introduced an improvement to the earlier design of prosthetic limbs by attaching “a body socket to the limb with atmospheric pressure.” In 1898, another development was introduced when Dr. Vanghetti came up with prosthetic limbs that can be controlled through muscle contraction.

#2 Condoms Condoms allow people to have sex without the fear of STDs or unwanted pregnancy. Some groups, like the Catholic Church, might not be in favor of using condoms, but it’s undeniable that their introduction to the public has helped saved thousands, if not millions, of lives around the world. It was in the 1980s, when the public and the government became aware of AIDS, that condoms became popular and highly essential. However, that was not when condoms were invented. Not even close, in fact. It turns out that condoms were a regular part of ancient civilizations’ sex life since as far back as 1000 BC. Unlike today, their condoms weren’t made of latex or polyurethane. They were made of leather, oiled silk paper, or thin hollow horn, and were often used and reused until they broke apart. It wasn’t until the 15th century that Gabrielle Fallopious, an Italian doctor, suggested the use of condoms made from linen sheath, in order to protect the wearer from acquiring syphilis.

#3 Toilets Can you imagine a world without toilets? There would be chaos, war, death, and no place to read your favorite book. Toilets make our lives convenient, comfortable, and civilized. Modern toilets were first introduced to the public in the 1800s. Thomas Crapper is credited for inventing the modern flush toilet, though this isn’t true. Real credit belongs to Sir John Harrington, the godson of Queen Elizabeth I. In 1596, he came up with the first flush toilet. However, his invention was only used in royal homes, and it was Crapper who introduced the modern toilet to the public. This lead many people to falsely believe that he invented it. Of course, neither man can truly take credit, as toilets have been around for thousands of years. Experts have discovered certain civilizations that date back as far as 3000 BC that were using flush toilets to take care of their dirty business. For example, the people of the Harappan civilization of India, had toilets in their homes.

#4 Toilet Paper Speaking of toilets, no modern day bathroom would be complete without one essential item — toilet paper. This simple, yet highly indispensable invention was only introduced in the UK and America in the 1800’s, and it only became popular to the masses in the 1900’s when indoor toilets became widely used. So what did our ancestors use before the toilet paper became commercially available? Well, anything they could set their eyes on, such as wood shavings, sand, leaves, sea weed, moss, hay, ferns, seashells, apple husks, wool, hemp, lace, and even rocks. One civilization however, had it all figured out. As early as the 6th century AD, the Chinese were using toilet paper to complete their bathroom ritual. It’s important to note though, that their toilet paper was used mostly in China’s Imperial courts, and in some rich Chinese households. It wasn’t for a good long while that the use of toilet paper was adopted by ordinary Chinese citizens. It became so popular and indispensable in ancient China that, by the 14th century, merchants from the Zheijiang province were producing 10 million packages of toilet paper a year! Clearly, the idea didn’t stink.

#5 Batteries Alessandro Volta is credited for inventing the first modern day battery. In 1800, he successfully built the first voltaic pile, which was made up of copper and zinc plates. Before Volta, scientists from the 1700’s were conducting experiments to produce and store electricity, though they were unsuccessful. It was Volta who succeeded in creating a device that could produce consistent, manageable, and portable electricity. However, before any of those people were even thought of, people from the ancient past were using batteries successfully. The Parthians, a group of people that thrived around 250 BC in modern day Iraq, are considered to be the first users and inventors of battery. Unlike Volta’s battery, the Parthians didn’t use copper and zinc plates. Instead, what they had was a clay jar filled with vinegar. Inside was an iron rod and a copper cylinder. Clearly, compared to Volta’s voltaic pile, the Parthian battery was very primitive. Nonetheless, it worked effectively enough for the time.

#6 Chrome People use chrome plating for many purposes, such as making a surface harder and sturdier, providing resistance against corrosion, and making cleaning and maintenance far easier. Chrome plating technology is relatively new in that the first American patents for this invention were only given out in 1926, to Colin Garfield Fink. Aside from an American patent, there is also a German patent for chrome plating, issued to E. Liebrich in 1924. However, the 1974 discovery of Qin Shi Huang Di’s tomb in Shaanxi, China, proved that chrome plating isn’t a modern-day marvel. It turns out that the ancient Chinese were using chrome on their weapons more than 2,000 years ago. When archaeologists discovered Huang Di’s tomb, they were amazed to find the biggest collection of terracotta figures in the world, along with various kinds of weapons, such as arrowheads, battle axes, crossbows, and spears. They were amazed to find out that everything in that tomb was preserved via chrome plating technology.

#7 Breath Mints and Toothpaste While many of us might think that oral hygiene products are a fairly new thing, since oral hygiene itself wasn’t taken seriously until just a few hundred years ago, many of us would be wrong. As it turns out, the ancient Egyptians, they of pyramid-making fame, were doting on their teeth thousands upon thousands of years back. The Egyptians were very particular about their oral health, primarily because much of their population was suffering from various kinds of oral diseases. In order to conceal the resulting bad breath, the Egyptians invented the first breath mint. Its ingredients, in case you ever want to make your own, consisted of myrrh, cinnamon, and frankincense. These fragrant spices were then boiled with honey and molded into a little ball. The Egyptians succeeded in keeping their mouths smelling fresh and clean, but they knew that concealing bad odor wasn’t going to solve their oral problems. So they came up with the first toothpaste to address this issue. Of course, it wasn’t as pleasant or as sophisticated as the paste we use today. Nonetheless, it did the job. Just in case you want to make your own toothpaste as well, the Egyptian recipe consisted of ox hooves, pumice, ashes, and burned eggshells.

#8 Plastic Surgery Nowadays, many people undergo plastic surgery to become more attractive, or to keep themselves from getting older. With all the sophisticated technology needed to perform this kind of medical procedure, it’s easy to assume that plastic surgery is a relatively new field. However, this is wrong. Eight centuries before Christ was born, Hindu doctors were already performing and perfecting this delicate medical procedure. But unlike today, ancient Hindu doctors performed plastic surgery for practical reasons, and not for aesthetics. In Indian culture, the nose is considered a symbol of pride. During battles, warriors would often target and damage this delicate part of the body. Also, Hindus who have committed crimes, such as adultery, were punished with mutilated schnozzes. The plastic surgeons would then reconstruct the damaged noses and restore them to their former glory. Aside from noses, ancient Hindu plastic surgeons also performed surgeries on damaged earlobes.

#9 Vending Machines Vending machines are everywhere these days. From mid-afternoon snacks to cigarettes to lottery tickets, vending machines have made our lives a lot easier and convenient. One thing vending machines are not though, is modern. In fact, they have been around for thousands of years, and you’d be surprised to find out what the first vending machine was originally intended for. Heron of Alexandria, a Greek professor and inventor who lived in the first century AD, invented the first vending machine as a way to dispense holy water and keep it away from thieves. Yes, people were stealing holy water, as it was common back then for worshipers to take more than what they paid for, because while that Moses guy might’ve been all “thou shalt not steal,” Zeus never said a damn word for or against it. To combat this problem, Heron came up with a brilliant design for a machine that would release just the right amount of holy water that the temple goers had purchased. Heron’s vending machine was very simple in design, yet it proved to be extremely effective in stopping temple thievery.

#10 Dildos Dildos might not be as indispensable as toilets or as revolutionary as batteries, but they sure provide a lot of fun and pleasure to many couples and lonely people. In addition, they’ve been around longer than any one item discussed thus far. In 2005, the oldest known dildo was discovered in a German cave. It’s made of stone, is 20 cm long and 3 cm wide, and is believed to be approximately 28,000 years old! In 2010, another dildo was unearthed in Sweden, this one a mere 6-8,000 years old. The ancient Swede’s version is made of wood and is considerably smaller—10.5 cm long and 2 cm wide. Some experts suggested that, aside from sexual use, these dildos might have been used as chipping tools as well. In addition, archaeologists have also admitted that they are uncertain whether women, men, or both sexes were the primary users of these ancient dildo-like objects. Guess we’ll just have to use our imaginations.
