Attic? You mean the altar room, don't you? The rules are very clear. Every witch must keep their Book of Shadows in a sacred and protected spot.

“Poorly-Drawn” Poorly-Drawn-MDZS by my friend who has no context for what MDZS is, but has read every comic of mine in support.

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #fan art #[text translation]: ‘Are you sure? I haven't done art in my life and I dont even own any coloured pens or have funny things to say- #or know what mdzs is? I have never seen the show I mean are you sure you want this? Your loss dude.’ #The context for this was my curiosity about their impressions of what was going on after a whole year of second hand exposure. #Honestly I think you (I know you'll see this) knocked it out of the park with this comic - despite protesting about a ‘lack of art skills’. #The punchlines absolutely incapacitated me. So glad this is my highly specific legacy. #Round of applause for Larry; the guy who's literally been here from the start. The ultimate cheerleader. #Makes me drink water when I’m nearly incapacitated from dehydration. #And lets me talk about this blog without judgment. #Merci de m'avoir soutenu mon pote

Matt Angst! Don't forget to pick up your kids.

#Cyberchase #Matt #My Art #PBS Kids #Artists on tumblr #Nostalgia #Rain #As you can tell this is the one that made me go insane and overdo all these sketches #The thought of Matt being forgotten after a loss on top of it #Also he's wearing his costume from Trick or Treat #Bc I hc that his fam don't buy costumes and #he didn't have time to make one that year #Tbh I put too much thought into this ultimately just a sad boy in the rain

Ppl are always like noooo self love is bad and we have to be giving and altruistic and always considerate etc etc and like all of those things are true to a certain extent, but when you're a super serious kid who took it too literally and became a hypermoral adult it's just like

Well *I* like me and that's all that matters, regardless of what anyone else says

#the duality of fran #yes yes im a virtue ethics bitch and it's ultima abt balance #ultimately* #and yes yes disclaimer about things like. tattoos and clothing. not war crimes and murder #which shouldnt need to be said. but yknow. webbed site #ANYWAY I LIKE ME. I AM LEARNING TO REALLY LIKE THE ME I AM BECOMING #becoming is inherently a state of loss but it is also a state of joy

This is the game room. The cube should be in there. [...] That door's locked. So you wait a minute, maybe two minutes, however long it takes, I'll go find a key.

its so crazy how 3L is literally not that serious. but It Can Be. if you use your beautiful mind

#thats where all the fun is at.... #i'm haunted by desertduo thoughts sorry. whyd they do all that #3L grian makes me want to chew on plaster the entire thesis of his character is him hopelessly trying to atone for a sin #that he will ultimately never be forgiven for & that will ultimately become his own downfall! #like the finale of 3L is just this beautiful karmic parallel like this insane manifestation of his guilt coming back to eat him alive #to finish the job! to Make Him to finish the job! #& i think 3L desertduo has this weirdly beautiful capacity to read as a larger metaphor for dealing with the loss of a loved one #internalizing it as your fault; trying to atone for your own guilt; doing whatever you can to keep what little of them is left alive #but in the end no matter how hard you try reality remains reality and the truth remains clear: #one of you is alive and the other is not. and nothing can change this. nothing is going to ever change this #you have to let them go. and it can feel so torturous. it can feel like you're murdering the memory of them all over again #but theres only one way that this can end #something about sand castles not being made to last something about dust and memories slipping in between your fingers #sorry. i feel normal about this i promise

Even now, I still don't understand the logic behind having the Disc War Finale be faked when it was executed the way it was. Specifically, having Dream want to go to jail.

I'm assuming that, by the time the reveal happened, they already decided that Dream and Punz both knew how the Revival Book worked. And, regardless if they did or not, the characters canonically already knew. They'd been experimenting.

With that knowledge, if Punz gaining the trust of the public (which was never actually used in any context ever, so, even that is a very debatable gain to aim for?) was the aim, them killing Dream in front of everyone and then reviving him once they all left would have served the goal just as well if not better?

Like, what did Dream gain from actually going to prison? To the prison, he specifically made awful on purpose? Literally nothing. Just some torture which, sure, he could not have foreseen, but he knew his permanence in there would not be pleasant. He also, like, didn't give Punz the blueprints that explained how to get him out? Which meant that not only Punz couldn't help directly, but he couldn't even get Techno to pay back the favor and get him out that way. Which means that Dream's brilliant plan of being in prison for a while was wholly reliant on Techno giving enough of a shit to remember the favor and decide to pay it back, and then also on Dream giving him the location of the blueprints and hoping that Techno had a way to safely get out alive with that information.

Like, sure, it happened after well over a year, but that was not a concrete plan by any means. It couldn't be. Chucking books at the warden until he was let out would honestly have been just as well thought-out!

And, for all of that time, Punz didn't do much in general. He got mind-controlled for a while and that's about it. He didn't use the time to gain intel or allies or even spread 'Dream isn't that bad' propaganda. He did jack shit with it. So Dream got out right back where he started off.

And the thing is, there was still a way they could have played this out effectively.

They could have gone for an approach that humanized Dream (so we didn't have to have the child he abused later on be the one who realized his "humanity" and apologized, because that was laughably ridiculous and a terrible decision, though that's a rant for another day) by making it so that the original plan WAS the kill and revive Dream one, but, at the last moment, when it should have happened, Dream got scared.

Fear of death is a very human thing to have. It could have been interesting for him. A character who sees himself as a god with no weaknesses and no attachments, still so attached to his own life and scared of his own mortality. It's even in line with his desire for immortality!

And that's when he blurted out about the revival book and begged not to be killed. And Punz, still trying to gain the favor of the masses, couldn't go against their will when the plan shifted from killing Dream to trapping him.

It could have been interesting. It would be a loss for them, but one that would, funnily enough, make Dream look like less of a complete and utter moron than the "win" they got.

It would explore his character's weaknesses and his hubris. His belief that he's above the ridiculous attachments the rest of the server is plagued by would be the very thing that crumbled beneath his feet and caused his fall.

But, instead of that, we got the nonsensical "lmao I'm always 10 step ahead of everyone... what do you mean I walked into a plothole?" story instead. What a waste.

#dream smp #dsmp #dream smp analysis #c!dream #c!punz #staged duo #staged duo critical #dream smp critical #ultimately no character without weaknesses is fun #and no character who never loses is fun #not even when they're villains #and trying to spin c!dream's biggest loss as a victory is what fucked them

That Malleus Anon again, apparently also TWST EN on twt has now come to the consensus that Malleus hates Silver because he did what he did in Chapter 7, Part 2 and I'm... I'm honestly Pepe crying right now.

PLEASE SAY UR JOKING

IM BEGGING????

Like, Malleus doesn't hate Silver at all, he practically helped raise him [and Sebek] with Lilia. It's more of the fact that Mallleus never got to experience what it was like to have a father.

His parents are long dead and his Grandma, for all intents and purposes, is stuck in Briar Valley tiding the people over so as to not put unnecessary pressure on one the last Draconia's.

Lilia had to pick up the slack of raising Malleus into a King who would usher in a new era for Briar Valley.

In some ways Malleus feels robbed that he can never have someone to call 'old man' or 'father'..

It's more akin to slight jealousy if we wanna be honest, but even then Malleus still cares enough ab Silver to hear him pour his heart out. He heard the pleas of Silver not being strong enough to keep Lilia and took matters into his own hands.

You can say he looked indifferent while Silver was tearing himself up ab not being able to repay Lilia a debt that never needed to be collected, but you cannot deny that there's a sense of love in putting the entirety of NRC [and possibly the island] under a 'blessing'.

Malleus wanted to quell the hurt he and Silver shared in not being able to do anything in the face of death. He picked up where Silver left off when he cried out that he wasn't strong enough, because Malleus is strong enough.

He did as a king would, he heard his people's struggle and did something about it.

And I would argue that he and Kalim share parallels because of that, because they want to wrap everyone in a 'blessing'.

#twst #twisted wonderland #scream into the void and i'll answer #malleus draconia #lilia vanrouge #sebek zigvolt #diasomnia #i dont think yall understand the sheer weight thag comes from never knowing your parents #or the fact that someone you do consider a parent doesnt view you the same way #and i think Malleus knows that #so he savors the fact that Lilia acts as his guardian #Silver is his brother and whatever bouts of jealousy hes felt has ultimately been washed away #Because at his core #Malleus wants to have the opportunity to show up for his friends and family #he wants to be there to witness facets of people's personalities and lives #and he was given that opportunity when Silver came to him #When Vil came to him in tears mourning the loss of his youth #When Yuu had nowhere else to go but to stare longingly at Ramshackle #He was never meant to be alone and saying that he hates Silver is the very antithesis of that fact

Losing to Glass Joe? I bet Little Mac has never experienced such a loss. Besides in Smash Bros., of course.

(Inspired by "Be A Man" from Mulan. The text for this version is actually from the first description of one of my oldest comics!)

Will this misery ever end? He is gone. Another of my childern has been taken away from me. How can the mighty Watcher do this? I cannot believe that my child would be happier anywhere but their mother's side. It cannot be. Why is the Watcher so cruel? Am I nothing to them? I know I have to get the blessing in church soon and ask forgivness for these sinful thoughts. I ought not be questioning the Great Watcher's plans. Forgive me. Please, forgive me.

my advice for anyone whos growing more and more frustrated with the state of aftg and fandom at large is that arguing is fun but you need to be happy. ok. you need to. its hard when bad faith takes are dropped to your doorstep but you need to be happy and enjoy yourself and have fun or there's no point in anything at all ever. ok. fandom is not real and nothing is worth more than your enjoyment. i love you please make sure to have fun and reach out to a friend today. for me

#this goes doubly for fans of color if i'm honest #i say this bc a lot of my mutuals either currently or in the past have been very upset about how the fandom acts #and ive Done My Rounds with that ok #ive survived great wars even. and they did not make me happy #yes i was right and yes i should have said it but ultimately there was no material harm to choosing to have fun instead #lifes hard as it is in the real world where real things happen why would you waste your precious fun time on fighting crusades #and trust me i understand deeply the wish to fight crusades. Ive Fought Them. it got me hate mail and #an overall loss of passion for something i held sincerely in my heart #theres nothing more worthy than your enjoyment im serious. none of this is real and the world is hard out there #you need to get a good thing while u can #i dont remember a single time where ive actually felt vindicated by arguing with people online about. anything really but even more so aftg #but i remember in perfect and fond detail every time the (now defunct) kandreil discord server came up with an au #or even just normal casual conversation #i remember asks i got years ago about kevin day hcs that i hardly even agree with now but still love #trust me you will Not remember these squabbles what you will remember is what you loved and if youre lucky thats a lot of memories #so have fun ok. for me #txt
