Logan might be getting stronger with his dream crafting because how did his speaker/beastcrafting affect even the Never Witch from a whole realm away???

The thing is that I think people tend to give Pav a flattened-out version of Miles' internal struggle, that is, avoiding pain by using optimism (although the way they write Pav wouldn't be in-character for Miles either bc it's too flat and doesn't engage enough w the whole "just keep going" part of Miles' coping mechanisms), but they don't realize that Pav's optimism comes from a different place than Miles's does.

Pav's relentless cheer and optimism, in-movie, comes from his naivete and over-confidence. He's been Spider-Man six months and nothing too bad has happened yet (other than presumably his uncle💀). In-movie, this is... the really clear angle they're pushing for his character, because it helps him contribute to the narrative.

He hasn't had enough Canon Events to humble him. He thinks he could fight God and win, probably. Which makes the audience maybe start to think, oh, he needs something to happen to him. Maybe only subconsciously--but I know it was my first reaction to him, honestly. Not because I didn't like him, but because that's how stories work. A character starts out with a flaw--in this case, happy-go-lucky ego--and then they have obstacles thrown in their path until the flaw is beaten out of them. That's... just how most stories work. As Miguel would say, that's how the story's supposed to go.

And then he does change! He's faced with a Canon Event--somebody's going to die--somebody would have died, if Miles wasn't there. Afterwards, he puts a hand to his chest and nods at Miles in thanks. It's a quiet, meaningful gesture, very different from the guy calling Miles "new guy" a few minutes ago.

Even after that, we see him nervously asking "Is everything going to be okay?" as his last on-screen words. That's a character arc, babey--unshakable confidence to awareness that things could go wrong.

THE POINT IS, after facing a crisis he couldn't handle on his own, he realizes he has limits. And he's humbled. And nobody had to die for it to happen.

And that's how he engages with the narrative--Pav is an argument against the idea that Spider-people "need" Canon Events in order to become better. Because his didn't happen, and he learned anyway.

And the point beyond that point is, Pav's optimism doesn't come from an avoidance of negativity insomuch as a lack of awareness of it. And that lack of awareness is pretty fixed by the end of his time in ATSV, although I'm sure he'll still be happy-go-lucky to an extent in BTSV. He's not Miles with the dials turned up, please.

SEASON 2 SPOILERS!!!!

Ok so now that we know what Tommy meant by lovestruck with Logan DO NOT judge people who ship Logan with Astrid cause "shes 'rude' to him" when most of you ship Logan with the kid he used to bully (SERIOUSLY. MATEO CALLS LOGAN HUS FIRST EVER BULLY.)

#i love how Logan is motivated to do more things to beat her #and their banter #i think they'd be good influences on each other

[thearacanemystery]

I wonder when the group decided to name Logan's small blue form Lo-lo.

#lego dreamzzz #he doesn't complain about it so maybe he came up with it

[thearacanemystery]

Soo like did they ever explain why Logan can just dream craft without an hourglass or did they go huh cool and completely bypass it I like on god do not remember there being a reaction to that but I do have the memory of cheese even for a show I’ve seen literally three fucking times

#wonder if he'll ever get an hourglass #what could he do with one

[thearacanemystery]

I really really loved this song too,,this analysis is so great! I love how the pixie hollow movies and the Peter pan movie are linked together. The little story in the description helps explain things even more and it's so awesome. It's revealed that Tinkerbell didn't even resort to kidnapping straightaway. First, she tried to find a way fairies could live independently without the Fath of humans. But she couldn't find one, and now she's trying desperately to make sure she and the last of her surviving friends can live since she sees this as their only way.

OMG!?!??! I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THIS SONG (and AU), RIGHT NOW!!!

(By Lydia the bard

TINKERBELL VILLAIN SONG - Fall Little Wendy Bird Fall | Song by Lydia the Bard and Tony | Animatic

The title^)

First of all the cover art is AMAZING, Tink is SO pretty, the sparkle and lines on the wings, her grin, HER HAIR, HER EARS, HER DRESS,

Also, "Fall Little Wendy Bird Fall" is a great title

Now the video itself and its lyrics, i really REALLY want to just compliment every single frame of this video, its so beautiful, so well done, its like it was blessed by The Muses of greek mythology,

Okay so the lyrics at 0:45

"You dont seem to quite understand what is at stake,

This messed up little family that i had to make"

Not only is this line so beautiful with the way her voice sounds, its pretty much a nod to the fact Tink and her friends kidnapped peter pan and the lost kids to keep her and her friends alive

(0:55) \/

"If i could let them all go home please know that i would

But it'd do more harm than good"

Just Tink expressing her guilt that she and her friends kidnapped the lost boys so that they could keep existing, but like, JWHSEAJKHWED, she ofc doesn't want her or her friends to die, and since people are slowly not believing in fairies anymore, they're slowly going extinct, ALSO, Fawn and Silvermist are DEAD, so yeah, that messes with someones head

AAAALSOOOO, i LOVE their silhouettes, the height and weight differences instead of them all having the same height and weight like in the movies, plus, i LOVE that despite not looking like how they do in the movies, you can probably still tell who is who,

ALSO

Even if it wasnt intentional, i like how in kinda faraway shots, Tink has a more cuter roundish look, while in closer shots shes more edgy and more intimidating(? if that's the right word), kinda showing how others view her (kinda?) as a cute fairy, maybe underestimated, but yknow, close up, shes plotting to kill a child

(1:15)

I love how Tink is gesturing in this scene, cause 1. It conveys to the audience what she wants from the lost boys and 2. Canonically, when fairies talk, people usually just hear jingling of bells, so shes gesturing because shes also conveying what she wants to the lost boys

1:23

"Swear its nothing personal, its a necessary evil"

I just love this line because it is a necessary evil, she needs the lost boys and peter pan in neverland to believe in fairies so that they exist, and Wendy is pretty much a threat, since she makes the lost boys want to grow up with families,

Also, the lost boys look so cute in here, i cant remember their names tho, one is holding a slingshot, aiming at wendy, one is holding rocks , and one has a stick , so Tink just told these children to assassinate Wendy, or at least attack her.

1:35

I love how the kids explain that Tink make them do it, and Peter Pan just glares at Tink, and i love that I'm pretty sure that Peter isn't mad/doesnt blame the lost boys

As seen in this scene where Pete is smiling and stuff at the Lost Boys and/or at Wendy

1:55

I love how Tink refers to Wendy as a "Nasty little spark" because, a spark can turn into a fire, damaging a lot of stuff and people, pretty much saying that Wendy has to be snuffed out before she causes a fire,

"Setting fires inside my house is just not allowed"

Pretty much referring to the fact that Wendy, the spark, is creating a fire, aka, making the lost boys want to grow up and go back to the real world, making them not believe in fairies anymore, thus, making her and her friends die, which is, not allowed.

Also. the fear in Tink's eyes is so fear, her expression is on point, the mix of concern and fear is just, so beautiful, also i love her pointed ears

2:17

First of all, this screenshot does not do justice to the actual design of the mermaid (siren?), cause they are AMAZING, BEAUTIFUL, GORGEUS.

Also, the fact that Tink is persuasive enough to convince someone to kill Wendy in such a short amount of time is impressive, and the fact that the mermaids agreed so quickly is also impressive,

When it failed, the absolute horror and shock on Tink's face? Shes horrified that another plan of hers failed, and shes scared that her friends might die, like, wow

The despair on her face is just so...asdjwoaijdoiwajd

3:38

The fact that Peter Pan (i cant even give him a nickname cause Pete sounds different and P.P. is just wrong and Pan is just A Thing), first at the gust of wind that blows away the pixie dust (which keeps the ship afloat) he covered his eyes, maybe cause the dust or his hair in his eyes, then he looks at Tink in anger and shock and probably some confusion, then looks at Wendy, in concern and fear,

Theory: Pan knows that, since Tink doesnt want the lost boys to leave, and he knows that gust of wind was from the fairies, and Tink's dislike and hatred to WEndy, that Wendy was probably the only one not going to be saved, which is why he only looks at her and tries to save her (that or he's a SIMPPPPPPP /j)

3:50

The fact that you can see Wendy screaming??? Chills,

And the black screen right after, signalling Wendy's death is just amazing

Anyways, overall, what im saying is

THIS SONG IS AMAZING GO CHECK IT OUT, GO CHECK OUT THIS PERSONS CHANNEL, THEY HAVE GOOD VILLAIN SONGS, THEY EVEN HAVE ENCANTO!!!!

#lydia the bard #fall little wendy bird fall #obsessed with this song #binge watching the other villain songs now

[thearacanemystery]

Idk if someone said this before but like, Gene and Brad giving Lloyd a jawbreaker as a "peace offering" and Lloyd being the naive little shit accepting it and just casually chomps on it and easily bites through because of dragoni teeth and Gene and Brad just stand there, absolutely mortified

#that would rock

[thearacanemystery]

Kai tryna get fugidove out of a tree is already my favourite part of dragons rising 😔

GJSHDHAHFJSHDJSGDHDHDHAJDH SAVE HIM THIS WAS NOT ACTUALLY THE PHOTO I HAD PLANNED

CLEMMONS MY BABY 😭

No chickens or mini figures were harmed in the production of this photo

#clemmons! #love watching him on lca #boy he is not having a good time there

[thearacanemystery]

#picked clone but idk #my first thought about the robot option was zane from ninjago #this is a cool question

[thearacanemystery]

Misheard a line in Dance Magic and thought there was a dance style called street ballet. Unfortunately I don't think there is one but it sounded super cool when I thought it was real.

#when rarity is listing the styles of dance while sharing her music video idea... #ballet #equestria girls #dance magic

[Steps up onto stage, microphone in hand]

I know you guys like Logan as the child of lava shipping, but consider..

[Gets closer to audience]

Logan as the child of samurai shippjng

[Gets hit with tomatoes]

#he DOES have two moms #but i doubt they'd act like his canonical parents

[thearacanemystery]

That really grinds my gears. Maybe he'll get some actual recognition and respect in season 2 though, especially since he's now more officially on the good guys side. It would be cool if they acknowledged that he could change other people's dream crafted things, that could be a huge help in battle if he learned to use it (plus he isn't dependant on an hourglass). Just, something that isn't dragging on him or making fun of him.

Go on a site or read magazine that promotes the lego dreamzzz show. Tell me: what is one of the first things in Logans description? I bet 15 dollars its probably along the lines of "Coopers best friend" and sometimes even "Mateo's bully".

Even more peculiar: sometimes it doesnt even mention his interests or his character traits in any way.

Thats because he has to be determined by another main character to be "relevant enough" to even GET a description. His interests and character traits dont even matter in the franchises eyes.

#maybe more about his family #agree with you about his music #in both cases the music HELPS #where would everyone be without it #the song in the mist episode was nice too

[thearacanemystery]

Noo, I really hope it isn't,, they could at least throw in his sports and athletic abilities or his passion for DJing.

#how dare they #he isnt SO bad anymore #he's entertaining to watch since he doesnt automatically fit in and live the dream

[thearacanemystery]

I thought he was the sandman, but maybe we'll get to know who he was later.

What is the Masked Hero?

{s1 spoilers under the cut}

He's shown to be capable of Dreamcrafting & wielding Lunia's hourglass, which initially made me think that he was a human dreamer like Oz and the kids. But when he appears in the waking world, he's not waking up, just appearing. And he maintains his dream-realm appearance when in the waking world, which no known dreamers do.

If I recall, however, the Nightmare King was also able to use Lunia's hourglass to some extent, so perhaps dream-crafted creatures can use their creator's hourglasses, and both Migo and the Masked Hero were made by Lunia?
