iirc oisin actually messaged adaine to say sorry, so no one else heard it. was this bc he didn't want the other ratgrinders to hear him say it? did he want it to be more private and sincere than a standoff in the cafeteria? from his actions in the plan (the ping pong balls, stealing adaine's ice mephits at that party, using one hand to plane shift kipperlily, bringing in his dragon relatives to fight) and him making fun of buddy in his dms with ivy it seems like his rage manifested as calculated and mean as opposed to kipperlily's blatant aggression. very similar to ivy except he hid it better. when i started this ask i did headcanon that he was genuine in that apology but the more i think about it im not so sure. if only he didnt get taken out immediately
Re: this post
Oh yeah that's true!! I completely forgot it was a Message, but yeah you're right. Honestly yeah echoing your sentiment about wishing he didn't get taken out immediately. I wish we got to learn more abt ALL the Rat Grinders in the finale, but alas.
My first instinct is to definitely think it was so the other Rat Grinders wouldn't hear, because he'd have to know that Adaine would tell the other Bad Kids he apologized once he was out of earshot. As a calculated ploy though to make himself seem more genuine, we know so little about Oisin's genuine feelings on the Bad Kids that it's hard to say one way or the other. It's such a small, indirect thing he does, and like the SECOND ever interaction he has with Adaine, I don't think it was a part of some long-term grand master scheme to endear himself to her. I'm inclined to believe it was genuine if only because of that, because like I said in my other Oisin post there are way better ways to ingratiate yourself to someone than indirect actions or "sorry"s that give no other information. He's VERY calculated in a way that he's constantly misdirecting and minimizing his influence, shifting blame onto people other than himself, so making himself the center of attention of Adaine just to mislead her may not even be his style.
If I had to say, for now I think that in the cafeteria he was originally going to say something that would have needled Adaine a bit (most of the Rat Grinders had been antagonizing their designated Bad kid that interaction) but when Adaine spoke positively about him he immediately felt guilty about it, and instead pivoted to an apology instead. I think he's genuine in his apology, but was maybe calculated enough about it to know that he couldn't apologize in front of his friends because he knows how they feel about them, and instead made moves to move them all away from the table and end the conflict entirely, as opposed to before when he was just giving weak protests.

OK so.
With Fit's most recent lore we know that there is an inactive island called Vacuus (meaning literally 'empty'). This is where Madagio lives and is HIS island. The feds did something to his island and he wants to bring Fit there to show him what they did to it, to hopefully convince him to continue to help with the mission.
What if Madagio was an island leader. Similar to the Duck or the Rabbit?
What if he fucked something up and the turned it into 'Vacuus'?
What if Madagio is actually the good guy here?
He's asking for Fit to get everyone's data so that one way or another, the residents of Quesadilla Island don't end up like they did on his. He's collecting the data to help the others evacuate eventually. At the end of Quesadilla Island, they can escape to Vacuus. Those that want to go back can, back to their life, to where they were. But those that want to stay, they can.

Started writing an affectionate shitpost about the joys of the Bell's Hells plans going awry versus the joys of the Mighty Nein's plans going awry, realized I was just making this post again, and decided to make a visual aid instead.
[Image description: An edit of the "stepping on rakes meme".
The top half is a cartoon character, labelled "Bell's Hells", about to step on the rake, thinking "haha you know what would be funny", with a thought bubble of that same character stepping on a rake and being hit in the face by the handle.
The bottom half is a cartoon guy, labelled "The Mighty Nein." He's drawn in a different style, clearly doing some very fancy skate-board esque manuveurs on a rake, down a flight of stairs with no injury, with panicked cursing of "oh no" "oh god oh fuck" "oh shit oh god" "haha- fuck" throughout. His descent ends with him landing on the rake head at the bottom, still winding up hitting himself in the head with the handle, identical to the top image.
End id]

question. are the 'lotus eaters' from Jessica laws song Lotus eaters the nymphs? ik that if the song was kept in it would be in place of sirens but idk enough about greek mythology to really pick up on that that implies.
I kinda though so because lotus is frequently referenced as something Orpheus struggles with addiction to, aswell as presumably being big in the nymph scene/Dionysus's clientele, being so focused on pleasure.
(set at a party held by narcissus, Dionysus's most popular nymph)
also this line (government sponsored??? hmmmm)

Thinking about how the egg event would punish those who couldn't keep their egg alive
Seeing the teaser from quackity studios, with "time's up" and what looks like tilín and juanaflippa?
Slightly terrified that this could be something sinister awaiting

hey i saw the tags on your most recent lae’zel post, and i can’t get it out of my head for nearly an hour now. not for why you may think (but also that too). i’m just so confused now……. how does 100 circles around Toril equal 8 years? k’liir follows the moon, one circle is one day………
Its takes Selûne (the moon) 30 days, 10 hours, and 30 minutes to make one full revolution around Toril and since the moons rotation and revolution are equal, one day is also the same amount of time.
With each revolution being about a month that means 100 cycles = 100 months = 8 years and 4 months

i think that unless you're talking about stuff that's like purposely and maliciously created with the goal of endangering people (e.g. nazi propaganda or cult recruiting etc) you should probably retire the term "irredeemable media". like i don't think this cartoon meant for children or niche webcomic or barely known indie game are as dangerous as you think they are

Now that I have Tumblr I realize I can rant here so get ready y'all bc I'm bouta spew some bullshit
Ok so basically, and respectfully, Victor Frankenstein is a bitch ass mf and a dumbass and this is my explanation on why he should've stayed and got his doctorate and not drop out
Ok so we all know how he made the Creature, right? And the creature is just a bunch of sewn together parts of other bodies, right??
So, when the idea came up to Frankenstein that he should make a bride for the Creature (as requested by the creature), he was hesitant
But why?? What the fuck was it gonna do??
If the creature was being truthful about leaving the public eye and leaving people alone to live together happily, what then? It's not like they're gonna repopulate and give life to other little creatures, because it's just human parts sewn together, it would make a regular, normal human, so that's not really a problem to deal with
Frankie was so wrong for killing the bride RIGHT THERE THO LIKE???? OK FUCKER YOU JUST BROUGHT UPON YOUR OWN DOOM RIGHT THERE DUMBASS
ok that is all thank you 😊
(stay tuned for a rant about anemic vampires bc I will be ranting about it)

Au where Damian is closer in age to Tim and joins the batfam after Jason dies
bruce has to make himself functional with a new kid dropped in his lap and then has to cut back on the violent outbursts because Damian WILL take it as permission to kill and they're trying to teach him not to do that
tim keeps his stalker tendencies and grows to like Damian's robin just as much as Dick and Jason's, even if this new robin is a bit stabby around the edges
damian is the first robin to notice Tim tho and confronts him on his own without telling Bruce
timmy is like heyyy don't stab me I swear I wouldn't endanger the bats ever & also I can maybe give you info I find sneaking around & also hey wouldn't it be cool to have a secret from bats? You could have your own personal informant wouldn't that be so cool you could impress Batman and everything
dami: fine but you don't have any more secrets right
tim, knows their secret identities: and I said no, y'know, like a liar
so they make a truce that turns into a friendship that turns into Damian hiding the fact that he has adopted a brother, shut up Batman you picked up random children from the street so can damian
bruce and dick: wow it's so nice that Damian has started listening to us about not killing or using excessive violence on people. We're glad he understands now
Damian, who got a 72 slide PowerPoint lecture from Tim about the practicality of not killing as a vigilante in Gotham: yes, that is what happened. I have accepted your perspectives on morality. No other reason
tim’s powerpoint has a lot of graphs and venn diagrams measuring different kinds of criminal activity vs public cooperation vs batman's violence levels vs police cooperation vs rogue activity. The gotham ecosystem is delicate
when jason comes back tim throws a fit because he has to REMAKE his powerpoint and all the graphs to add red hood’s vigilante-slash-rogue effect
Tim at some point: batman is fragile if you kill people it will make his traumatized brain explode
Dami: trauma?
Tim: y'know from martha and thomas being murdered in front of him
Damian, eyes narrowed:
Tim: I mean… that's just a game theory?
but just like generally Tim and Damian being each other's support systems
they bond over having parents who are absent?? Like, damian missing his mom and tim immediately empathizing on how its hard when you love someone who is away a lot or for a long time
they talk about missing them and damian is able to open up about feeling out of place and how difficult it is to adjust or know how he's supposed to act
