In a way, present day Sandalphon is a great foil to Lucilius, because he also doesn't get answers from the god-like figure he looks to, but Sandalphon knows that his creator loves him and loves him back
TRUUUUE.
Like i mean, Sandalphon and Lucilius were already foil because they were basically driven to madness by the fact they were clearly created by a higher being and they had no idea why, even more so learning later that their creator (Lucifer and Lucio) didn't even know why they were created (Lucifer didn't know Sandalphon's purpose/Lucio doesn't even know how he happened to have a clone). And both of them tried to destroy the world if only so that the absent figure they're blaming for their pain would pay attention to them.
but Sandalphon learnt he was loved, and that his creator would drop the whole world if he had to, if only Sandalphon could be happy. And being loved by the person he devoted himself to at least was enough for Sandalphon to try to figure out how to give this love back to the world around him, the world his beloved loved so much.
while Lucilius is still left on mute by Bahamut, and Lucio treated him more like a curious experiment than someone he could care about (credit where credit is due Lucio still was developping his people skills), and even there Lucilius was already too far gone anyway.
Sandalphon foils people in wmtsb in such a way because everyone who has huge impact on the story is craving for love and recognization or pure free will, and Sandalphon was the one who managed to reach that by being loved by his creator who freed him from all of his burdens, while the rest of the antagonist are left abandonned in some way, and while the Astrals have learnt to be self reliant it left the one primal who stayed behind even more starved for it than they could be.
anyway many thoughts but yeah the way Sandalphon foils Lucilius even more because they were much more similar than Lucilius was to Lucifer actually, which enrages Lucilius, but Sandalphon managed to move past that. Lucilius, meanwhile, is still stuck in this homeostasis he hates so much.
crazy huh....

like, "a lot of people we knew were either [sic] doing boring office jobs, lonely phds, or burning out in pursuit of a high-flying career" tells you everything you need to know, doesn't it

pro lifers being more pissy about my post calling out their hypocrisy than about the struggling pregnant women and babies in Palestine ironically proves my point even further...

Genuinely kind of disgusting the lack of solidarity manufacturing workers show toward anyone in any kind of service industry. Like sorry you're pissed about whatever pittance the cashier at wendys makes for dealing with a hundred times the amount of bullshit you do. If only they had found a job performing the noble act of putting stuff in a box or pressing a button or filling a hopper with plastic then maybe they'd deserve that kind of pay. Zero perspective. Crabs in a bucket behavior.

my heart’s over-pumping and your mouth is an ambulance
buck/eddie | 8.7k | rated t
“Eddie Diaz, such a considerate guest, really committing to the party theme. And here I was feeling good about coming early to help tape up the banners,” Karen grins, gesturing at the pink Valentine’s bunting above them.
“What?” Eddie repeats, this time in confusion.
“The goddamn heart-eyes, Diaz,” she laughs. “I feel like I’m interrupting something here. I’d say put 'em away, but 'tis the season, and also, I don’t think you actually could if you wanted to.”
or, a fever, a party, a late night tv show: three times eddie’s heart falls out his ass because buck keeps looking at him like that. he’s just got to find a way to tell him that doesn’t involve a convoluted cephalopod analogy about love

I like throwing hints that I'm against pornography like by complaining about the greasy ass gamer idiotic moid who walked into class loudly stating "if one wants to see boobs, there's pornography for that"

ohhhh thinking about the parallels between odin/maya and frost/marlow/valerie rn
#the way it all comes down to the need to be in control#like theres more nuance to it than that and there are multiple factors in each dynamic but maya and valerie were both isolated#and their respective toxic relationships w their families were allowed to fester and break them bc of that isolation#man. always imagined that valerie was closer to cheri but maybe she should connect more with maya#maya and cheri are sorta aware of the situation? but they dont know just how bad it is and unfortunately theres not a lot they can do#without marlow denying them access to valerie at all the way he did to felicity and aisling#i think maya would try to talk to him gently without oversharing but he’d probably be quick to shut it down#and even if he did know mayas backstory hed be like ‘’wtf im not like that guy at all!! that guy got aggressive with his kid i dont do that’#which is also what he does with frost. ‘’no ofc im not like my mom. my mom didnt give a fuck about me. i care so much about valerie!!’’#tfw you try so hard not to be like your abuser that you end up being toxic in the opposite way#echoed voice#tbh very curious to know how marlow will be recieved#assuming he’ll either be hated or all his worse actions will be shrugged off as ‘’oh its ok hes dad of the year anyways’’#maybe both w no inbetween whatsoever#personally i like him. hes my personal little trainwreck. he fascinates me. i want to put him in a tube and study him#he needs therapy sooo bad but unfortunately hes way too proud for it#also in his own way sakura does want marlow to stop self isolating w valerie#like hes not as clear about it as like cheri would be. i think hes mostly motivated by their rivalry. he wants marlow to better himself#and be a more worthy rival for him basically which is why hes constantly rubbing souvenirs in his face#sakura likes valerie but i think he kinda like. disregards her compared to her brother. he hasnt really picked up on whats going on based on#their interactions. but hmmmm…: perhaps now that hes staying in serenade for an extended amount of time….?

if you are getting all your takes on AIs from people who proudly declare that they've never used them or worked on them or studied them and never will because it's Evil but nevertheless speak with complete confidence about how they work as if they were authorities or had any expertise on the subject at all then you don't get to laugh at the gullible antivaxxers circlejerking about nanomachines and MRNA shedding anymore

Have you considered the 2003 anime's version of Envy instead? Almost identical in character design, and still an antagonist but wasn't the one to orchestrate the genocide in Ishbal
imma assume ur well intentioned here but respectfully if i wanted to consider anything from 03, i would talk abt it. but i don't. for many reasons lol. so no.
