I hate to say it, but Polites' death was even sadder than I first thought. Not only did he, Odysseus's best friend, die a horrible death, but his beliefs died with him. His song was all about convincing Odysseus to great the world with open arms, to be kind to his foes, but his death causes Odysseus to not only abandon those beliefs, but move in the complete opposite direction.
This is reinforced by "No longer you", with Tiresias telling Odysseus that the man who returns home isn't him anymore. That's because the old Odysseus, the one who believed in kindness and open arms, died with Polites, but the new Odysseus from "Monster" who believes in ruthlessness, in making it home no matter the cost, survives. He doesn't just become the monster, he destroys the other parts of him who believed what Polites did. In other words, Open arms Ody dies, but Ruthlessness is mercy Ody lives.
Sorry for the ramble but those are just my thoughts and interpretation of the Underworld Saga.

STOP MAKING "PLACEHOLDER FICS" IN AO3.
STOP IT.
THAT'S NOT HOW THE WEBSITE WORKS.
PUBLISH A FIC WHEN IT'S DONE, NOT AN EMPTY BLANK PAGE WITH LESS THAN 50 WORDS THAT FILLS THE PAGES WITH SPAM AND NOT REAL STORIES.
HOLY SHIT.

Yugioh has been a huge part of my life since I was about 8. It has influenced my art style in many ways; I learned to draw hands because of it. It’s the main reason I really like Alternative fashion and when I look at my favorite stories, I have noticed that many tend to have similar themes to YGO (very extra, with high stakes, maybe a little bit of end of the world, and emphasis on friendship/love dynamics).
Basically, YGO is one of the biggest hyperfixations my ND mind has ever had, if not THE biggest, and it’s very sad to know it’s creator just passed away.
Thank you, Kazuki Takahashi

I’ve been absent for a hot second and the moment I come back there is SPN drama and all I can think is—
Y’all be acting like some cLOWNS who thirsted for drama in a small town with the population of 30. I can practically hear the whispers of bored townspeople ready to go “FWIP” on someone’s sticks to start a flame
Can we worry about other matters like, I don’t know, racism and the fight for LGBT rights? I can care less about celebrity drama, let them deal with it regardless of if they are adults about the situation or not.
Jensen doesn’t act properly with cas’s proclamation of love: LIGHT HIM UP
Jared is offended by Jensen not telling him about the SPN prequel: LIGHT HIM UP
Let’s light up the government instead, shall we?

i can't believe season 3 of ygo DM is widely considered a bad season. it literally includes a plot line about the former kaiba corp big wigs wanting to dispose of kaiba, with their reasons slowly being revealed to be because he dismantled the military weapons production arm of the company and put them out of a job because he wanted to use the tech to build an amusement park for kids instead...
except for one guy who was fully on board with the amusement park thing and instead is trying to kill kaiba because he's obsessed with penguins and wanted to put a penguin attraction in the park and kaiba said no.
