[not-that-n]

I read like all of Sleepless Domain yesterday and it was pretty good, its one of those stories that I know will really resonate with some people even though it didn't with me. Don't take that comment wrong, I think the comic is great and has some pretty amazing ideas, I love the world it presents and I love how the characters inside it act in relation to that.

I like all those things about magical girls being celebrities and how that's a purposeful way of making the concept feel more abstract and surreal to the average public so that girls don't hesitate to participate in such a life threatening job and how the general culture of the place sees magical girls and their organization, but I think the most compelling aspect of the comic was how different circumstances, mainly the presence of a support group, affect two people that went through the same tragedy.

If this sounds interesting to you, please go read it, it is a pretty good story that I know will resonate with some people incredibly deeply. That said, beware spoilers below

Tessa if my favorite part of the comic because of how that character reflects Undine's situation. While Undine still is hurting the loss of her three friends she takes action, while shy she still tries to better herself, to make new friends, to make new relations and get help, it is stated that she goes to therapy something that seems, well, logical considering what she goes through but outside of that she shows progress in trying to move on from this tragedy. She keeps hidden a lot because, well, of course she does, talking about such a traumatic event is incredibly hard specially if you think that opening up might put your friends in danger, but even though she is scared of this, she does open up, to Kokoro and then to her other, new friends. She is afraid but she works to Kokoro, she accepts her proposal to participate in the training club, she is afraid but she makes new friendships.

Its also important to mention Kokoro and just how much I like her as a character, originally I thought she was just too emotionally intelligent and that it made Undine's journey a bit more plain but that's kinda the point. Kokoro's character is about how a single person can change someone's life for the better through kind acts. She does struggle like everyone does, she is insecure and she went too through a great loss. She keeps somethings bottled up because she is afraid of making things about herself, of being annoying to the people she wants to help. But she still opens up to Undine, afraid of course but she does it. She makes the club a friend group and everyone ( except one character ) is better for it. Kokoro made the club a support network for everybody involved and that's incredibly cute and heartwarming, this one person made the world such a better place for most of her friends as a result of being so kind.

Then, as a parallel, you have Tessa's story. Instead of, like Undine, trying to get help and establish new relations and a support group, Tessa isolates herself, not letting herself move from that tragedy. She makes new friends, Rue (I won't talk about Rue much but she is amazing) and the whiteboy she likes (I forgot his name lmao) but never really opens to them, every time someone tries to get closer or make a friendship with her, she runs away and even with Rue, someone she actually used to hang out quite a lot and were friends if not really close, she still keeps at an arms length, never talking about her issues, never opening up. When Rue attempts to get closer, Tessa ends up hurting her, saying some (in universe) horrible things to say and breaking that friendship, she is constantly avoiding Undine, not answering and purposefully calling at a time she knows she won't be at home, and when they meet up again she is distant, not opening up, waiting until she goes away to showcase any feelings of discomfort as showcased by the comic panels only beginning to shatter when Tessa is alone.

And I find this such an interesting juxtaposition of characters because Undine tries to move on, she does feel horrible about it, saying that she feels like things are finally becoming normal when after such a tragedy things should never feel that way, she like Tessa feels like she shouldn't be moving from that moment of loss, that doing such isn't grieving correctly her friends. But unlike Tessa she doesn't let those feelings win mainly because when she doubts, Kokoro is in there to help her, to lift her up, to be the shoulder to cry on. While Tessa just goes to the cemetery every day, never opening up, lying to people about her situation and just further isolating herself.

When Rue, after all that happens, still tries to do the right thing, recognizing both that there's no excuse for Tessa treating her that way but that she is going through something incredibly hard, and asks her if she is ok, asks her, in a way, to open up about her feeling so she could help, Tessa again says no, she says that she is fine and only wanted to be alone in that moment, that she didn't mean what she said. Something that actually might not be completely bullshit, she probably never doubted Rue's magical girl ability and wanted to be alone, to isolate herself even more, and just said that so Rue couldn't get closer, and I find interesting that Tessa, in a way, said the truth to justify the pretty obvious lie that she is ok.

I just really love this, presenting two different, opposite outcomes of how people deal with tragedy makes both stories feel both more heartwarming and more tragic, when you read about Tessa you remember Undine's story and, knowing that Tessa could be going through that, it feels like adding salt to the wound because you know she can be in a better place, and while reading Undine's story you always have Tessa's on the back of your mind, feeling more heartwarming because you know how her friends helped her and what would happened if they didn't.

I think Sleepless Domain exists in the Heartcatch universe.

I think Yuri reads it. I think she sees Tessa blame herself for the tragedy and spiral into depression, Tessa whose friends are dead and whose powers are gone, and sees herself.

She watches as Tessa drives away her remaining friends. She watches as Tessa only gets worse and worse. She watches as Tessa attempts suicide. She watches as Tessa ends up working with the being that killed her friends, taking the deal, becoming a magical girl again but now she’s the villain.

She wonders if this is what would have become of her had things only been a little different.

Chapter 20 Page 10

Just feels like there’s a lot of different ways to read that Nurse’s thought bubble.

She’s either having a rather snippy “Oh, I guess she actually is one after all” moment after coming across as a little frustrated over Vedika being completely  non-combative in this scenario, or she’s trying to reassure herself that yeah, it’s totally cool to let a child out into a monster infested town to light a rescue flare instead of me, the adult. Because after all, it’s her job to put herself out there, right?

Man, I wish we got more on how fucked up the system has become in so far as how the town views Magical Girls.

[redandbluegaycompetition]

yes I am aware Kokoro is technically a dark pink. however i am also informed gabriel is only red in certain versions of the game/when enraged so i think it's even right?

A V1/Gabriel Submission Note:

Have you ever felt the homoerotic tension of a fight to the death? The ecstasy of finding someone who is your true equal in ways that you never knew you needed? Someone who fills your life with such purpose that you would cut it short just to see that purpose fulfilled? Gotten your ass beaten so hard that it made you an atheist? Admittedly this is mostly just a joke ship in the fandom. Atleast; I think it is. It can be real hard to tell sometimes. But if it ain't a damn good joke. Also most; if not all of the dev team is LGBTQ+, so that's pretty neat.

A Kokoro/Undine Submission Note:

Okay so I only just started reading the webcomic today and nothing overtly gay has happened in the parts I've read HOWEVER I'm mod for the wlw webcomic couples tournament and this is one of The most popular entries. So I trust that means something! I am told that once they start interacting more it is incredibly cute.

(rabgc mod note (me): while looking up images for this pairing i got. some spoilers. oops! (mod does not care about spoilers) and they DO seem cute!!)

Round One - Aquamancy 2/4

Propaganda under the cut (beware of potential spoilers!!)

Undine:

No propaganda :(

Percy:

Percy, being a son of Poseidon, gets a variety of demigod abilities related to water, which is used really well in combat scenes and the like. He can breathe underwater, manipulate it to his advantage for attacks and mobility, and even heal rapidly when he's in it. But he can't summon water from thin air, so a lot of battles end up with the win conditions being "Get into the water to get the advantage / Keep Percy away from the water". He can also swordfight really well, so his powers aren't usually his main form of offense, but I really like environment-dependant powers used well in fight choreography.

The Ultimate Character Design Tournament

Please remember to vote for characters solely based on design!

Charlotte Wiltshire (Oracle) | Hello Charlotte

Charlotte already has a super cute design but the Oracle version is really cool! The helo and third eye and fleshy ring around her are really interesting and scary.

Cassidy Tailor "Flash Cut" | Sleepless Domain

Creamsicle :)

*Spoilered propaganda under the cut*

Charlotte Wiltshire (Oracle) | Hello Charlotte

The Oracle is basically a god like entity capable of creating small worlds. Charlotte manages to become an Oracle by merging with a dying one, and therefore was changed. She takes on this form when stuck with grief and attempts to change the world, by devouring it. She cries as she does. The combination of a grieving heartbroken girl and the otherworldly horrific meat tendrils covered in eyeballs is a great juxtaposition.

STEFFI FROLICH - Kiwi Blitz

PROPAGANDA:

German gamer girl who lives in an alternate timeline New York City and goes vigilante Iron Man style with her CEO father's approval and mech she got for her 14th birthday. Canonically bisexual. Has negative feelings towards furries, but hey, she's like 14. Also an amputee after jumping in front a bullet meant for her dad when she was like 5. Now has a robotic leg and aversion to silence because of this incident. Also has negative feelings toward her mom because of spoiler reasons. She also started dying her hair pink around the age of 5 as well. Her childhood best friend/partner/eventual bf is the braincell of her little vigilante gang. I don't know her role in Law of Talos too much, but in Sleepless Domain, she's a magical girl (still an amputee despite the worlds being very different. Probably lost it to a monster instead?) and MG team is made up of other characters from her webcomic.

Bracket(??) Announcement!

I have FINALLY (which I am very sorry for guys) finished going through my submissions and have created something that looks like a bracket. BUT, in order to include the most characters, I have devised a group round with 128 characters divided into 8 groups and have sorted them in a way that prevents this competition from becoming a batman vs spider-man final.

making the polls shouldn't take nearly as long so be on the lookout for those! this will be pinned and I'll make sure to edit this post with links to the polls, and matchups are not necessarily going to be heroes next to each other! matches can be made up by any two heroes in the same group

polls will last a day for now and one group will be posted per day

as of right now top 4 from each group will make it to the bracket round but that is absolutely subject to change so don't count on that

Multiple Births

Round 1 Poll 15

Read Girl Genius

Read Sleepless Domain

Submitted context (possible spoilers) and propaganda under the cut

Zeetha and Gilgamesh : OK so I do need to clarify because this is technically not confirmed canon yet.

Gil is the son of Baron Klaus Wulfenbach, the guy who whipped all of Europe into shape through some tyrannical de sporty after returning form a years long sojourn through a portal yo find everything gone to shit. He brought with in his stolen/rescued baby kid, who he then proceeded to not tell anyone was his kid, because Klaus is winning every father of the year award (sarcasm). Gil is the first/main love interest, and is an idiot (affectionate)

Zeetha, Daughter of Chump, is a warrior Princess of Skifander, a lost kingdom that may or may not be on Mars, who came with an expedition to visit Europe only for everyone to die and her to end up in a traveling circus - Agatha, the protagonist, is the first one to recognize Skifander, and the two become best friends.

Zeetha knows her father is a warrior from Europe, who disappeared when she was young; Gil has been told by his father that Skifander might be sending assassins to kill him, that Klaus had a complicated relationship with the Queen, and that he is through some path technically royalty. Zeetha and Gil are the same age. A requested sketch of Chump looks identical to a (younger) Klaus. And when asked for fun facts about Skifander in an AMA, quote “they don’t like twins.”

So, you know, not technically confirmed, but 100% Klaus kidnapped his own son under the impression that he was going to be ritually murdered for twin-superstition reasons (and son specifically bc Skifander was a matriarchy), leaving them to be raised separately and unaware the other exists. Although Zeetha is definitely putting the pieces together.

New Slushie! Cube watched the pilot episode of Oshi No Ko and needed to yell at Feen about it ASAP.

This is a salty ep, probably best avoided if you're enjoying Oshi No Ko. The ep also contains spoilers for events in the manga that the anime has not reached yet.

You can also listen to the audio version here.
