#theory in progress

[s0lar-ch3ri]

theory time!

so reasoning as to why i cant reblog the other one is just cause it doesnt allow videos when i reblog now which sucks but whatever so yeah! its a jrwi theory again, and whatever future info i have was 99% gathered from the wiki (the remaining one percent might not even show up in this theory so ye), and of course theres spoilers for the black rose one shot AND riptide pirates (dont have any exsct eps, all i can say is im at ep 101 now so anything before that is kinda fair game)

for the original theory post

k so we gonna put that one clip (scroll message, about a minute long) and talk about it, def mention all the connections gill would have with the black sea, shit like that

apologies for the buggy clip, just needed to add this and when i recorded i was in school aka just recorded like this for less risk, lets talk about the message though.

"a map that is a guide and a key passed around the hands of destiny, it leads to chaos infinity beneath the seas, the garden giant, the nameless prince, the unborn kings, all await to be inevitably free"

i think in my og theory post i talked on how gill was very connected to the black sea imo so how does all this tie in? lets do some quick lil notes first

ok so the scroll of legend lore has been held onto by gillion, the one closest to destiny's ties, and has not been used until now

chaos infinity while refering to the black sea could also be an undersea thing, what with the leviathins (nobody else remember how the pearl shard gillion has came from one? and how the pearl was never supposed to even see the light of day probs let alone be in some cat mans evil base? just me?)

while i wanna say aster mythborne aeiliana shes not real here so she cant be garden giant

BUT we do have a known leviathin(? could just be a dragon turtle) named duke who has plant shit and is controlled by a gollieth

nameless prince is everso chip coded but we looking all across our board here so yeah

it could apply that the "nameless prince" could refer to someone "unnamed" who holds power like that prince from edison kingdom or smth

it could also reference marshal jon, who's canon first name has been forgotten and canon last name is jon

unborn kings? honestly while i dont think chip's bit of mpreg is apart of this i think the lady inspiring it (aka aslana's mom) has some relations to this whole thing

we all read "kings" btw so theres probs multiple yall

would goobleck count? he is goobleck he must apply someway

non-literal one again? maybe their monsters or smth

wait to be free. huh. gee, i wonder, will the door nightmare with arlin come into play here. thatd be so fun. yeah. ahahaha im losing myself

okay okay maybe its not all clear and i honestly have had this as a draft for too long (as shown below)

BUT ill reblog this later cause ill really just be using text and images and shit

whats the basic idea? this is def where the oath from the sword comes into play (murdering destiny), with the whole "the black sea twists you" thing we may get hints of killion or even dark gillion again, the thign about it being a "key" might imply like a 'this means that' type deal rather then being actually a key, the chaos isnt really referring to the black sea but the state of the undersea in general (lost champion becomign criminal, ally shit gone, oversea war, etc), unnamed prince is either someone we havent met yet or someone who we dont expect to have a return (ie: were deemed before as not really lore relevant), and the unborn kings are monsters, oh and the garden giant isnt arlin but something related to the duke! THIS HAS TO CONNECT TO THE LEVIATHINS FR

some details/info about gill/things related to gill so i write this better:

"You promise to slay all evil before thee, crack corruption that takes hold of this world, strike swiftly enough to split the seas, and even if the thread of fate poses an obstacle against us, we shall sever it"

A hero born of moonlight, storm and sea. / They shall rise or fall to bring unity. / They will be tested or bested by evil’s hand. / By their choice one will remain: sea or land.

Personally obsessing over the fact that Armand going "LESTAT, LESTAT, LESTAT D:<" seems to be taking place in the same scene as Louis attacking Young!Daniel , judging by the scenery

#interview with the vampire #iwtv #armand de romanus #louis de pointe du lac #daniel molloy #lestat de lioncourt #so do we think this IMMEDIATELY sequences into that 'i am the quiet you've been longing for' scene from the other promo #because i have theories how this is gonna progress

Shit, this fucking image:

my first thought was that she got both eyes black, and then i noticed it's only her makeup smeared. And i don't have any words to say how IMPORTANT is that.

We've never seen Ashley crying, like, seriously crying. We've seen her tantrums as a child and her unhiged half-crying half-laughing in the Decay ending. She didn't cry when she and Andrew killed Nina, she didn't cry when she was being strangled, she didn't cry when she got the vision of Andrew killing her.

This, on the other hand, seems fucking real. Her hair's messy, her eyes are half-open. Like she just waking up after having crying all night; like she go to bed without even taking her make-up off and now it's stuck to her skin like dry glue.

And the dialogue: "(because you're just as full of shit as me)" Am I crazy for thinking this thought is clearly about Andrew? I strongly suspect this is the Decay Route, because it makes sense. This Route is all about Andrew falling in a even deeper pit of denial and putting all the blame for their actions on Ashley.

And, you know? Ashley has usually allowed this line of thinking. Unlike Andrew, she knows who she's, and she knows she's cruel and manipulative and just plain evil. She allows Andrew blame her because it's helpful for their relationship's manipulative dynamic, and she doesn't care. The only instance in where we've seen her blaming Andrew was when she was trying to manipulate him, using Nina's murder as a weapon.

But here? She's not manipulating anyone, she's thinking to herself. She's on bed (or on the floor) and notably alone and stating that her brother is as bad and deceitful as her.

At this point, talks about "mutilated bodies" tell me everything I need to know about people's politics. I truly don't believe you can combine the idea of mutilated or degenerate bodies with anything even slightly progressive in terms of autonomy. If you believe yourself to be progressive or anything left of an unapologetic fascist, you frankly cannot truly entertain the idea that some bodies and people are inherently mutilated or degenerate. It is an inherently fascist idea.

#politics #things like this make me almost lose some faith in people #because that is a FUNDAMENTALLY reactionary conservative or even fascist mindset #hate hate hate when 'progressives' want to redeem degenerative theory and imply it can be part of their worldview #and too often the 'mutilated body' refers to women/trans people/PoC even/disabled people... #...wonder why that is! it can't be because those ideas are FUNDAMENTALLY reactionary (sarcasm) #i know i've talked about 'degenerative theory' and its fascist roots before but this shit still goes largely unchallenged imo #you cannot be an anti-fascist fascist. i don't want to see these viewpoints given a platform in so-called 'progressive' spaces #(and too often the 'mutilated bodies' refers to jews too - addendum that is important to add) #ask to tag (genuine) #fascism tw #anti fascism #anti facist

What if the organizing of the cases in the O.I.A.R being different from how they were organized in TMA with the original 14 entities is causing a remanifestation where the separations between the new entities are completely different. What if by organizing the cases and they are single-handedly driving this universes interpretations of the fears. They aren't categorizing existing things, they are creating the boundaries.

#tmagp #reading through some other theories and this occured to me #because theres no way they are still robert smirks 14/15 #it wouldnt make sense from what weve seen #so the question is: are they one big fear entity again #or have the lines between them been redefined #and what if the oiar is manipulating those shifting differences and causing them to manifest more concretely #just as fundementally different categories of fear than before? #the magnus protocol #the magnus archives #the magnus pod #we established already that there was power from collecting statements and gertrude specifically devoted her time to making the archives #messy and hard to find things in #to delay progress #why couldnt that still be true

…Yes? You do realize this is the Commies & Queers website, right?

#in actuality I havent read enough theory to say w/ my whole chest I’m a commie #but I’m definitely somewhere between progressive and socialist/democratic socialist on the scale #anyways this was very funny #that anticap affirmations post has really brought out all 12 of tumblrs capitalists #asks answered #anonymous ask #the humans speaks #text

[superhusbands4ever]

In my most delusional of moments I like to imagine that The Bad Batch will end with Star Wars/Disney announcing a show about how Rex, Wolffe, and Gregor started working together and a clone rebellion in the Empire and how they ended up on Seelos in Rebels but alas, I have little faith

#bonus points if Crosshair doesn’t die at the end of the show and joins them #because I think it would be really good character progression #though that would mean he probably/definitely would die eventually before rebels? #also don’t like the implication for Echo with that one lmao #who knows they could all survive and be fine #nobody think about that fan theory that the island Pabu is located on Scarif #everyone stop thinking that right now #the bad batch #tbb #tbb spoilers #captain rex #commander wolffe #captain gregor #the clone wars

[nightswatchdisbandmentera]

As far as character progression goes, I'd argue that the most important aspect of the RLJ reveal isn't just Jon learning that he isn't Ned's son. The most important part is him learning that he isn't Ned Stark's bastard son. He's spent all his life chasing after Ned's shadow, trying to prove to himself and to the world that he is worthy of being Ned Stark's son, "let them say that Eddard Stark had fathered four sons not three", “he was not a Stark but he could die like one” and all that. He's internalized the shame of being the one stain on honorable Ned Starks' reputation

“But it’s a lie,” Jon insisted. How could they think his father was a traitor, had they all gone mad? Lord Eddard Stark would never dishonor himself … would he? He fathered a bastard, a small voice whispered inside him. Where was the honor in that? And your mother, what of her? He will not even speak her name.

So it's important for him to finally stop chasing after that elusive shadow. It's important for him to understand that Ned's dishonor was a deliberate choice that he made by himself, and it's thus no fault of his own. Once Jon internalizes that, then he can finally move on and ask himself, who am I? What do I want for myself? What can I be in this world, just as I am? So far, he's been unable to do that successfully because he still has an incomplete (and false) understanding of who he is.

#jon snow #asoiaf #valyrianscrolls #jon specifically being ned’s bastard cannot be overstated #it heavily colors his outlooks on his own life and how he navigates through the world #like let’s talk about his sex hangups for example #being ned's bastard is so so important to his character arc #ffs whenever he meets someone new it’s always you must be ned stark’s bastard #it’s how he and everyone else understand his role in life so for him to progress as a character we need to ask #what happens when jon is no longer ned stark’s bastard? #what happens when the one thing that drove him to the wall - to seek glory and kickstarted his heroic journey #is proven to be false? #what then? #what does he do then? where does he go then? who does he become then? #I think he will at first be resistant - and it’s been my personal theory that his learning of robb’s will #will coincide with that and that will be the greatest temptation for him #just like with stannis’ offer and how he agonized over it he will try to cling to some form of #-I can still be ned’s son can’t I? look robb legitimized me as such- #yes I think he’ll already be aware of his parentage by the time he learns of the will #but ultimately he will choose to forge his own path in the end just like he chose to remain with the nw #which then doesn’t look good for the kitn prospects I’m ngl 😬 #because just like accepting Stannis’ offer meant desecrating his father’s gods #accepting the will while knowing that he has no right over his now cousins would straight up be usurpation regardless of age or skill #and I can see grrm throwing in that moral dilemma for Jon because his arc is full of them #but just as he rejected stannis and ended up as lc then his final rejection will lead to something else that is greater - king of winter 🤭 #Just my opinion tho 🙂 #tagging #eddard stark #r plus l equals j #As well

So I thought I’d get the watercolours out for the first time in years because I needed to paint the kiss

It’s not staying this way but I want to play with the yellow blue colour theme and watercolours are all about layers so right now it’s not looking great - I feel like I’m painting the Simpsons does 911 😬😬😬😳😳😳

The legacy of a craftsman

The amount of space that Blade and Yingxing takes up in my brain is feeling increasingly concerning. I can't stop thinking about them...

Like now that it's finally not just a leak, has anyone else read Baiheng's Travelogues about the Xianzhou Zhuming? Featuring Baby Yingxing??

Literally the second one devastates me emotionally I can't even explain it. Yingxing being so discouraged by the masters on the Zhuming who are long life species degrading him to the point he, a child, talks about how he'll probably never live to see his parents be avenged after what the Borisin did???

THAT HURTS

And God I can't even,

GOD if I could properly put into words the fact that Yingxing is a craftsman being so important to his character and identity and how Hoyoverse making a point to specify the injuries that occurred to his hands in whatever gray transition period happened between Yingxing and Blade that made him unable to craft weapons again is such a tragic visual to completely severe the two identities, that is ALL you would hear from me ever.

Because see the thing about Yingxing being a craftsman is that all stems from a goal in his past. As a child his home planet was taken over and turned into a weapons nursery, his parents were slaughtered, it became his goal as a child to create technology and weapons for the Cloud Knights to fight terrifying monsters like the Borisin. And that goal ended up defining the rest of his life, going on to become the Legendary Furnace Master on the Xianzhoh Luofu. That ended up becoming part of his legacy with the HCQ. It's clear how heavily important that part of his identity is defining not just his time in the HCQ but his time on the Zhuming, and everything that occurred to him as a child to lead him to that exact goal. His whole past.

And for Hoyoverse to specify how Blade's hands have been hurt to the point of no longer being dexterous, to the point of no longer being able to forge a weapon ever again, as those injuries cannot be healed by whatever Abundance shit he has going on since they likely happened before he became immortal(?). It just... it is devastating. It's something used as a way to severely separate the two of them so people realize they are two different identities on top of Blade already making it clear he sees Yingxing as dead. The way that they went about his hands... it's not merely that he relinquished that identity, which would be him no longer making weapons out of choice. It is that he can't connect to that identity anymore, the change he went through was far too severe. Thus he cannot make weapons anymore, he has been stripped of any ability to.

I'll make like a better post explaining this later, but I believe the use of Yingxing status as a craftsman and Blade's inability after he was revived TO craft anything is fundamentally used as a tie to the separate of identity between them and it's so well used and so tragically used.

Because again, it is not that he lost Yingxing's passion for it or decided on a different path. It is a wall that separates him from being able to do what Yingxing did in the past just as he is unable to connect to the identity his body held before death.

#Yingxing #Hsr blade #Hsr #Honkai star rail #High cloud quintet #Baiheng #Hsr theory #Like guys do you hear me #DO YOH UNDERTSAND ME #Blades whole thing with identity fucking hurts #The transition between them is devastating to me #Also let's talk about the fact that Dan Feng to Dan Heng and Yingxing to Blade are identity progressions in the opposite direction #Df to Dh: Lack of individual identity to a firm sense of self #Yx to Blade: A defined personal identity to a completely loss of self as well as self dehumanization #It hurts #If truly everything with the sin relates to Dan Feng in some way having made Yingxing immortal #That means that apart of the acts that would go on to free Dan Feng and allow his next incarnation his own free identity #Includes an act that would completely strip Yingxing of his own #THATS SO FUCKING TRAGIC... #Anyways #I feel crazy right now

[theminecraftbee]

considering trying to play create: mekanized and its very fun but i ALWAYS FORGET just how badly spending a lot of time in lategame vault hunters messes up my ability to play earlygame anything else. like okay see it's not that i entirely forget, trying to hit the heal key constantly and also the button i have bound to stonefall i do all the time, i expect it, i always go into earlygame other stuff like 'i'll still have some vault hunters lategame instincts i'll just adjust'. i just forget stuff like "i am so used to having a magnet that i keep on accidentally leaving blocks behind" and "oh god spending like a month with speed four makes everything else feel so slow" and "oh right i have to actually mine to get resources right" and this is modded minecraft i am trying to play modded minecraft it's not even like i'm going back to vanilla,

#anyway my first goal is to get the thermal magnet and also see if there's a faster way to get netherite than netherite mining #so i can get the create magnet in theory #for those curious: it's a progressive modpack i saw a vh player playing and i went 'oh i've recently learned i love mekanism' #'create is also good and this looks like it integrates the two well lets try it' #BUT I ALWAYS FORGET HOW SLOW I FEEL WHEN I DON'T HAVE TEN MILLION MOVEMENT SPEED........

[jazzzzzzhands]

I'm a bit late in talking about the update!

But!

Oh this is so interesting!!

Firstly, the effect of it all was so good! I feel like the previous update had everyone SO confused and then this one drops and it just CLICKS.

So the WHRP.. the Question-Answerer. They finally decided to try and talk to Wally! And they don't even care about explaining it or hiding it! They no longer care if We know. They might even know we know!

Anyways, they knocked on his door, gave him a call and BOY did he answer! Not only did he answer, but he sorta showed off!!

Some of them he did simply, such as writing Hello! And moving Barnaby!

But then he does this

And he even says "I didn't write it, I did something else"

The "Not only can I do this, but I can do more!" He is thinking creatively!

Wally is putting in the extra effort. Really not being subtle. He is so LOUD, basically screaming "Yes, this is me! I am here! I am the one doing this! Talk to me!"

But the instruction that makes me think the most is the SALLY one

I thought it meant to just flip the image! From left to right!

But! Wally has somehow conjured up an entirely NEW image! When you think about it, someone on the team drew or restored that image of Sally. Most likely, there was not a backside at all! Why would there need to be an illustration of that! Wally somehow made it happen! Very very interesting!

And then there is this, a little bonus, a little extra

Wally and Home. Sitting nicely together in the same... House?

I think most of us already think that there is a connection between the two of them. A deep connection.

Personally, I see the concept of Home as more of a general idea. Your Home, your upbringing, your family, your life! And what are you without these things? They made you who you are! If you were to separate yourself from the idea of Home, would you even know who you are?

And then there is the Eye. And it is under the same House. Wondering if this is saying "This and This are the same" "Wally and Home are both the Eyes" which feels like the more obvious statement.

But for me I see another connection. A Third. And it's You. The collective You. We are the audience, We are the Watchers and We have a connection to Wally through his eyes.

That connection is different and separated from the one between Wally and Home, but it is there! Under the same roof!

Wally, Home and You

Ooh I honestly am so excited to see the WHRP's response to all of this! They have been answered! And so very obviously too!

Anyways! As usual, I pop in with my little thoughts! Clown and his team are always full of delightful surprises! I hope they get some well deserved rest and good treats!

And all of you guys too!

Have fun out there!
