Have you ever even heard of…

BECAUSE OH MY GOD SEARCH FOR THE LOST IS SUCH AN UNDERRATED GEM OF A FAN-MADE SONIC SHOW

Okay, allow me to give you some additional context before just bombarding you with all the many reasons why you need to watch this show.

Search for the Lost is a fan-made production created by Creative Planet Entertainment on YouTube. This shit has been around for 6 whole years, and it is such a good show! Made entirely out of g-mod screenshots/screen recordings and Sonic gameplay, Search for the Lost is a show about Silver the Hedgehog and his friends figuring out what Melhiles of all people is doing back in action, and why the fuck he’s working with Eggman of all people. Also, why is Infinite back… AND WHAT’S ALL THIS TALK ABOUT A PROPHECY!?

OH AND BLAZE IS HERE TOO!?!?

AND THERE’S THIS NEW GUY CALLED FORGE WHO IS LITERALLY THE BEST IN THE ENTIRE SHOW HANDS DOWN 100000P0/10 BEST BOI BEST ROBO BUDDY EVER HE’S SUCH AN IDIOT AND SUCH A HILARIOUS GUY HE’S LIKE THE ONLY ONE WHO MAKES GOOD JOKES HE IS LITERALLY THE BEST EVER I LOVE FORGE

Aight lemme just give a quick spoiler-free explanation about Forge because I know yall are looking at this like “Who tf is Forge?? Some kinda fan character or something??” Because… Yeah, he is a fan character, BUT A VERY GOOD ONE AND HIS DYNAMICS WITH EVERYONE WORK LIKE A CHARM I TELL YOU HE IS NOT JUST SOME RANDOM SONIC RECOLOR.

Cuz he’s a Metal Sonic recolor! 🤩 Haha, well to be fair, they literally call out Sonic recolors in the show with this fact. It’s in Forge’s story! Basically, Forge once worked with Silver in his bad timeline in Crisis City, but the ashes and the chemicals were too much for his small little itty bitty bird lungs. So, to keep himself from slowing everybody down, he managed to shove his consciousness into an old Metal Sonic model. A black-and-yellow one, kinda like the one from Archie except a lot less like Sonic personality-wise and a lot more like Sonic visually. With all these new robotic upgrades, Forge became a force to be reckoned with, and became one of Silver’s bestest friends after the whole Iblis thing. Oh, and he ships Silvaze like it’s nobody’s business, so that obviously gets an A+ from me lmao

I may have gotten carried away with that explanation and maybe there’s some spoilers in there but it’s late and I’m sleepy so you’ll only know if you watch the show~! ✨🙂

Seriously tho. This show is very underrated. I’ve been keeping tabs on it for years now, ever since episode 5 came out! Trust me, that’s a long time. They have their plates full when it comes to personal things and it’s a big project so episodes come out after a long time in production.

There are only 7 episodes so far, but each episode is jam-packed full of lore and giving us more questions on top of every answer! It brings back characters we haven’t seen for a long while, and it always provides a reasonable explanation as to why some of them have been gone and why some just like. Cut contact or something. There’s characters from previous games, from Sonic X, from Archie, from IDW, BRO WE GOT GAMMA IN HERE BAYBEEEEE IF THAT AINT FREE REAL ESTATE IDK WHAT IS.

AND DON’T FORGET HEAVY AND BOMB FROM KNUCKLES CHAOTIX. PLEASE. PLEASE DON’T FORGET ABOUT THEM THEY’RE HERE TOO AND THEY’RE LOVELY

So. Please. Please just watch this show. Please look at all the additional content with Forge on their channel too, it’s fucking hilarious! Just… I wanna talk to someone about this show who isn’t just my lil bro. Like I love getting to bombard him with bullshit about characters he’s never even heard about until watching this show but I gotta know I’m not the only one. Please. These people are working so hard on Search for the Lost and I’d really appreciate if you even saw just one or two episodes. The story is very intriguing, the characters are all so well-written, TEAM DARK IS THERE, FORGE GETS A WEAPON OF MASS DESTRUCTION, so I say it’s all totally worth it!

#PLEEEEEAAASSSSEDEEEE WARCH ITTTTTTT #WATCH IT WATCH IT WATCH IT PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I WILL PAY YOU I WILL PAY YOU CASH MONEEEEEEEEEEE #(no I won’t I’m broke just like the lot of you.

fumi i hope you know that in an extra of how laios' party is formed he is explicitly banned from getting a crush on marcille.

like i know you went in depth on the trauma he has because of humans on your laimar post about the succubus but please know that he was explicitly banned its so goddamn funny.

im crying laughing while typing this out happy laimar love loses 🥂

Lmao yeah 🥂

It’s a very fun comic! The marriage seeker mystery can finally be put to rest 😌 I don’t really think it changes much, that it overrides anything we knew or that I theorized, esp since we already knew about the party-wide romance ban, but the meme potential (and fic potential) IS so strong now that we know Laios was the one most targeted and distrusted of all… And trust was the biggest issue, romance brings nothing but trouble in their minds but the trouble they experienced with the marriage seeker was because she was disingenuous and manipulative and Laios was oblivious, and as time went on the party realized that Marcille was trustworthy and they stopped worrying about that particular scenario happening. It can def bring a new meaning to the "This is my succubus?!! No one can see it no one can know AAAAA" line though lmfaoo. It’s so funny and honestly such a win for aroace Laios

#I’ve been wanting to make a comic detailing the history/timeline of the Touden party and its members so it helps out so much #Ask #Laimar #Spoilers #Laios going for her throat when she tries a kiss because of his workplace conduct contract #Laios post-canon going to Chilchuck like So if i wanted to date Marcille…… Am I allowed… #Chilchuck ‘… Laios the party disbanded a year ago. You’re the king’ #‘Whew ok thank goodness’ #Dungeon meshi manga spoilers #Honestly Chilchuck in that extra comic takes up all my brain space the rest is just sprinkles on Chil’s introduction. I love the insight #We got on how he does business. HE LOOKED LIKE A MEAN COWBOY WHEN YOU ENTER THE WRONG SALOON #Oh might as well say it here but i think many ppl are following me lately expecting laimar content and </3 #You’ll have to send asks to pry laimar content out of me bc I have moved on to greener pastures. #Aka overanalyzing every pixel of marchil interactions #Meta

[carefulfears]

thinking about how expectant of her own death scully always was, but how completely struck by shock she was in mulder’s, despite how clear it had always been that he would one day die for the cause. tragedy in the x-files as something you should have been prepared for, but never could be, in scully standing at a funeral, as her mother had stood at her father’s, and barely being able to speak. she should be able to do this? bred to be a war widow, attached to an endless line. but no matter how many times she saw him put that gun to himself, or run off in front of another, she really did believe that he would always come back. she really did believe that there would never be a day where he didn’t just appear in the doorway again.

#‘oh my god you’re so naive / you’ll leave this world in a drunken heap / who’ll make the arrangements baby / them or me?’ #oh father john misty we’re really in it now #that song (‘please don’t die’) has been discussed RE: msr before but it’s that ‘who’ll make the arrangements?’ line that sticks with me #in the song it’s from his wife’s point of view in his addiction/suicidality. how he’s always running off with ‘reptilian strangers.’ #but it always makes me think of scully standing at that funeral and saying….he was the last one. #his sister is GONE. his mother is gone. his father is gone. #and that realization of…she had to plan that funeral. the flowers and the people and the priest and the grave. #she’s pregnant and she’s alone and he ran off after someone else or some answers as he always does. but who will make the arrangements? #in that moment at the funeral when skinner says….but he’s NOT the last one….. #she has to keep going because he’s left her this baby she’s carrying. and she is so ill-equipped and she carries so much perceived shame. #her mother did it. her mother WOULDVE done it- had ahab not come home one day. the women on the base she grew up on did it. #and anyone in the world could’ve told you that she would have to do it one day- no matter how many years she spends chasing after him #as he jumps onto moving trains or pulls the trigger on his own head or runs to the arctic #but she never actually thought she would. and now she’s realizing that she can’t. #and she’s planning a funeral and decorating a nursery at the same time and she is ‘just not capable’ #txf.txt

I don’t feel like our love is brand new. There must have been lovers, soulmates, before us, experiencing what we get to have. And it’s giving me comfort to imagine there will be many more like us to come. Our kind of love is the kind of love that makes this rotten world worth living in.

prince simon in madrid

a pilgrimage along the world that @prince-simon created 🥹

Simon’s neighbourhood, Chueca

“It’s actually the Queer Neighbourhood of Madrid, and coincidentally also where I live.” He lowered his voice as if to tell a secret, “It’s actually not a coincidence at all.” (chapter 2)

Casa de Campo (view from the Royal Palace lol oop)

Wilhelm didn’t even recognise himself. He didn’t think he’d ever looked that happy. And Simon… his eyes were closed and his curls were a mess and Wilhelm had never seen anyone more beautiful. (chapter 3)

El Retiro

Simon looked at Wilhelm much too adoringly for a statement this goofy. “The ducks are gay!” He yelled at Santiago and Paula, “Just so you know!” (chapter 9)

Palacio de Cristal

“Here’s a funny thought - bear with me, okay? But just imagine. Flowers. Everywhere, like on the ceiling, up the walls. Fairy lights scattered all through it. It would be so gorgeous as a- uh, like. For a wedding…” Realising where his train of thought had gotten him, Wilhelm fell quiet, looking at Simon with wide eyes. (chapter 9)

El Palacio Real de Madrid (more specifically the Throne Room lmfao)

Simon traced his fingers over the bruises on Wilhelm’s neck and in the opening of his dress shirt, humming contentedly. Wilhelm followed the movement in the mirror, and marvelled at how good they looked together, how well they fit together and how much Simon belonged right here – on the throne, with Wilhelm. He deserved the world and so much more. (chapter 12)

Museo Nacional del Prado

Around them, the other visitors kept moving, admiring the art on the walls, and for the moment Wilhelm felt infinite, imagining himself a painting, looked at and analysed hundreds of years from now. El Abrazo de los Príncipes.

Lo Spasimo, Raphael, 1515-1517

“Are we allowed to kiss in front of Jesus on his way to crucifixion or is that tasteless? Because I really want to kiss you right now, Simon.”

Las Meninas, Diego Velázquez, 1656

“He made me look at Velázquez in the painting and how he was looking back at the viewer, at me. I still remember the exact tone of his voice, how he was so certain when he told me that I had every right to be where I am. That I am the subject of this painting, the king being painted. All those tyrants, King Felipe and Emmanuel and all those that came in between, they are trapped in that mirror forever while I am here, alive, we’re here. Velázquez is looking at two queer princes, ready to paint us.” (chapter 13)

Casa Alberto

“So, tell me more about this special part of Madrileñan history.” He was slightly teasing but mostly actually curious. 

Simon seemed all too eager to answer that question, and it hit Wilhelm how genuine Simon’s care for his city — his country — and its people was. It made him a little sad to know that a lot of people didn’t get to see that because they only focused on Simon being too gay or too Latino, or even just too carefree and enjoying life because he was young, to be their future king.

bonus content:

Iglesia de San Antonio de los Alemanes (where Simon goes to church)

“I think I need to go somewhere.”

“Oh?” Wilhelm said softly, “Right now?”

Simon hesitated before he nodded. “I need to- get some clarity? Or - I hope that I’ll get it there?” He whispered, voice shaky.

“Do you want to tell me where you’re going?”

“To- uh, to pray? I mean- to church? I don’t know if I’ll pray…” Simon’s voice was shaky, uncertainty shining in his eyes when he dared to look up at Wilhelm. (chapter 11)

#god i don’t think i have immerse myself into a fictional world so deeply before #this story lives and breathes #and i love what it has given me god to imagine when i read the first chapter i have not moved countries or gotten a cursed degree yet #he feels like a friend i held by the hand and walked through adventures together🥹 #i really went to a particular restaurant and ordered particular dishes because i read about it in a book #and it was as magical as i imagined heheh #(including the snails sksksk) #prince simon i love you forever #prince simon au #prescribing everyone a reread Right Now! #give me attention and i’ll come back with extra pics of the food sksk #simon’s depression church is not mentioned in Text but this is canon source hehe #i’m not the first person to visit pscu locations and i love everyone who’s done it what a great idea it was so fun! #yes i know you’re not supposed to take photos in the prado but then i remembered this was built by a colonial powerhouse then felt less bad

[the-obnoxious-sibling]

You are truly fascinating person. You look at OP so differently than most Reddit or Tumblr fans I encountered. There were two types of usual consensus I noticed about 1082.

1. Shanks is 100% correct and Buggy was just being idiotic with his idea. It’s good he left.

2. Poor Buggy, I hope they will be besties again. I’m sure Shanks would understand him and be so sad about what happened.

You are so fresh in your takes. I love it.

thank you, that’s so kind of you to say!

i try to be thoughtful about what we know about these characters—their thoughts and feelings, the things we as readers know they know, the things we know they don’t know, and the great big void of unknown unknowns (things they might know that we don’t know about, things we don’t know that they also don’t know, etc.). i hope it helps me to look at conflicts between characters with less bias.

(…though it would help if we got even half as much insight into shanks’ thoughts as buggy’s. i sometimes think we’ve seen more of buggy’s thoughts than shanks’ spoken words.)

#those common opinions you’ve seen are so interesting to me! i think both of them get it about halfway right. (imo of course) #like. of course 15yo shanks and buggy going straight to LT is a bad move. #but is that what buggy was even asking?? i think he just wanted confirmation that LT was their shared dream #shanks’ childhood dream was to travel and occasionally do some piracy… next to buggy’s impatient treasure-hunger that must seem so slow #he wants concrete goals! what’s your five year plan shanks?? /jk #and while shanks would be sad to learn why buggy left i do think there would be frustration too #that’s his friend whose dream you belittled! that’s his friend who you’re hurting—for shanks’ sake?! who asked you to do that?! #how can shanks protect a friend from his own self-loathing? especially when any offer of protection is seen as demeaning? #i want them to reconcile but i don’t think it will be easy #not unless a lot changes between now and then #asked and answered #one piece #shuggy #shanks #buggy #*the shuggy roguetown breakup #*shuggy reconciliation

[alexiaugustin]

if i see people defending shadow and bone’s shallow established gay couple fanservice they used to rope in more viewers from the obsessed with gay couples crowd by calling it "queer joy" one more time i’m actually going to start biting people. what exactly is queer joy to you people?? two men hooking up with each other and then getting their arcs and complexities erased so they can immediately jump into a relationship and play the happy gay background couple for the rest of the show???

"finally a story with queer joy representation!”. okay. please point me to the scenes in the books where the characters were dealing with- and their relationships were effected by (internalized) homophobia. i’ll wait. was the well developed and well written relationship between a black bisexual teenager and a gay disabled teenager in the books too complex for y’all?? was nina and jesper openly talking about their bisexuality anything but queer joy? was nina, a bisexual fat women, in an established relationship with a man who adored her not queer joy??

if y’all are so concerned about queer joy then maybe start worrying about how the implications of jesper forgetting who wylan was because he lost track of all his hook ups are insanely biphobic. or how they erased nina’s bisexuality completely. or how they almost completely erased the lesbian relationship of the two women who are canonically in an established relationship during the shadow and bone book they were adapting this season.

the truth isn’t that y’all actually care about "queer joy" because clearly you don’t have much to say about the biphobia and lesbophobia on that show, or that there wasn’t queer joy in the books because clearly the books weren’t lacking at all, it’s just that most of you only love queer joy when it’s two men fucking by episode four of a show and that is that at the end of the day

#y’all’s media comprehensionnis so shallow and you go on twitter thinking that you’re making smart flippy comebacks with your #queer joy!!! posts when in reality we can see right through you. like just say that you’re obsessed with gay couples and that the show #catering right to you with their strategy to get more viewers while erasing female queer identities n relationships from the show #and move on. but don’t pretend like your dumb takes somehow make this dumb show above critism because.. Jesus. Christ. #anti shadow and bone #wesper #shadow and bone #jesper fahey #wylan can Eck

It feels important to note that while there can be very healthy age gap relationships between adults and there are ppl in their 20s who seek out much older partners (which im not gonna tell them not to! they’re adults w a right to fuck & it’s none of my goddamn business), there is not a ‘positive tradition of gay age gap relationships’ and I think it’s good to asses that statement critically when someone says it to you.

The historic frequency of age gap relationships in Western gay culture specifically, especially Britain, does not come from roots that have anything intrinsically to do with homosexuality. What it comes from is specifically rich, mostly white queer men doing what many, many rich white men have done throughout history regardless of sexuality-using their racial & class power to have consensual or coercive sex with young working class people & people of color. The power imbalance between age&experience AND financial status was romanticized a Lot by these rich gay men in the late 19th and early 20th century (think about ppl like Oscar Wilde, Walt Whitman, E.M. Forster, Edward Carpenter, etc) and relationships with poor young men & sometimes teenaged boys were sought out enthusiastically under the guise of imitating ‘the Greek acceptance of homosexuality’-which makes sense when you consider where & how a lot of these men were educated.

The illegality of gayness & oppression of lgbt people definitely made it hard to find examples of same-gender attracted people in society, which helps contribute to the Greek imitation thing but also more importantly created situations where young lgbt people who were working class, who were immigrants, who weren’t white were facing the most severe consequences under the law for their sexuality & gender expression, were living the hardest lives, & were easier to exploit by rich and powerful men because of it. The ones doing the exploiting weren’t doing it because they were gay, the criminalization of homosexuality just made it easier for them to take advantage as they did the same thing their heterosexual peers did to young women & girls who were working class, immigrants, & women of color.

If anything the fact that conditions in the UK & US have improved so much legally and socially for cis gay people has made it much more achievable to have ethical, healthy age gap relationships between people who want them, even though these issues do still exist. Again, it definitely can and does happen, and adults have the right to date & fuck each other if they want to, but that type of relationship does not need to be culturally tied to something unhealthy, coercive, & produced by classism and racism.

It’s a subject I think a lot of western gay people & historians shy away from talking about and really seeing as what it was because we’re so often wrongly smeared as pedophiles & gay sexuality is accused of being predatory to children & teens as way to harm and criminalize gay people, and I understand the fear of playing into that, which is why it’s so important to me to emphasize again that this exploitation was a product of class and racial inequality and homo/transphobia, not an innate quality of gay or trans society. But we do need to talk about it! We need to address it! And (saying this As one) white gay men NEED to find queer history & role models who aren’t rich, imperialist pedophiles-there have been SO MANY OF US who aren’t that! the majority of queer people in history have not been that! We have a rich culture and history to draw from here without glorifying or toning down really gross, predatory behavior from a handful of wealthy men & the class that enabled them.

#aaron says things #im so sick of constantly seeing other gay men praise historical figures as icons only to then turn around and be like #’when he was 50 he had a ~love affair~ with a 16 year old boy who worked at the docks’ like stfu. SO MANY OF US DIDNT DO THAT. IDOLIZE THEM #and what does it create when men then choose to gloss over this & Emulate these so-called icons? hmm? #bc if that’s their attitude then no I DONT think they’re going to be the older men treating their younger partners w respect #& by younger I do mean younger Adults here not teenagers. #it’s never going to be excusable for u to fuck a 15 year old sorry. idc that ur dead British daddy did it it’s still rape. #u had the chance when YOU were sixteen. You’re 34 now! move on!

I feel like the hardest part about long distance that nobody seems to talk about is just how much of your life it has to consume and change to work out

#and that’s not inherently bad #but I think it’s weird that it’s not really spoken about #in the spaces about long distance #but it fundamentally changes the way you view so many parts of your life #/everything/ ends up existing through the frame of your relationship and overcoming the obstacles with it #like pto isn’t just the time to relax at home or take a vacation to wherever #it’s primarily time to use to see your partner #and money saved up #isn’t just to cushion your savings #it’s also a plane ticket #and especially for international ones #you are always having to be thinking ahead to the future #wanna move to them? #gotta be starting that process at least a year and a half before you expect it to happen #want to just go and see them? #not really realistic for at least a month from when you decide you want that to happen #and to combine that when you’re struggling to tread water in the right now? #there’s no words for how overwhelming that is #even with the love of your life #but yeah I feel like ldr’s are so much more than just ‘normal relationship with struggles of being far away from each other’ #I mean I guess that still technically applies #but you know what I mean #ignore me I just don’t have anywhere to express the thoughts in my head about this

tonight i can’t stop thinking about a ballsy, bratty, huffy baby bucky who damn near outright refuses to call steve Daddy and how much his baby’s defiance digs under steve’s skin, so much so he has to do something about it 😤😩🫣

#daddy steve and baby bucky #imagine steve pulling the ultimate daddy move and waiting to swoop right in with a soft daddy approach #that ‘got sad earlier when i called you from work and you didn’t tell Daddy you loved him’ #and imagine it nottttt working on bucky #he’s gonna make Daddy work for that title #buck needs that reminder that one that comes along so rarely #show me you’re my Daddy #Daddy’s about to smack that ass redddddd #buck would cry and they’re both so ready for it #‘your ass is about to be the color of your safe word boy’ #gonna pulllllllll that title outta bucky’s pretty mouth #gonna shove his mouth full of fingers or cock and make him practice around his mouthful until Daddy thinks he’s ready #they’d come away from the night looking like they got the shit beat out of them both #but damn it’s worth it 😌 #good lil’ Daddy reset

People hating on a literal child because she doesn’t physically look like a character in a book who we only ever saw in concept art and fanart vs me who was kinda sad when I realized book Percy wasn’t black because the description of a young boy living in New York who’s close with his single mother parent who is constantly seen as stupid troublemaker by both peers and teachers and his moms awful boyfriend and who’s only friend is the only other Outcast (non white) classmate who’s only ally is the literature teacher who then he finds also has doubts about him felt very if not fully black then at least mixed coded.

But then I moved on and enjoyed the story for what it gave me, can some of these people say the same 🤔

#I have not yet watched the show I’ll probably wait for more episodes bc I canceled D+ like two months ago #but idk many of yall are not 12 anymore and saying Leah won’t do a good job or it won’t be as good #we only saw any of these characters in our minds eye #or concept art #im not saying you can’t be disappointed when things aren’t 100% a match bc you want to see a good adaptation of the Book #and I need to do a reread but I would think Annabeth’s whole other shit aka running away cross country at 7 always being nosy and wanting #a quest being ready for battle but learning to have fun too #is more integral to her character ESPECIALLY IN MARK OF ATHENA #the blond hair in the books is a trait from Athena so it’s not a unique hurdle other girls in the cabin wouldn’t also face #it mattered bc she was a main character #But taking the core struggle of not being taken seriously works pretty damn well for any girl but especially black girls AT ALL TIMES #and not to be funny but saying the other characters are already diverse feels like a side step #like look Hazel in her eyes and say not being taken seriously BECAUSE of your HAIR COLOR is on the same level #as not being taken seriously because you’re a black girl #and if this breaches containment #yes the show would have been fine even if a picture perfect accurate cast had been hired #but if we want to move past people being cast bc of how they look vs how they act #you can’t hold the gospel of a book series against literal children who are probably having the time of their life #or would be if grown ass adults were attacking them bc SOMEONE ELSE HITED THEM #if the show is bad it’s not bc Annabeth is black or Percy is blonde #hell in good omens both leads are older in the book they’re described as looking 25 and 30 #can you imagine good omens as it is now with book accurate casting bc I can’t
