Guys yk how in Mikes monologue he says "i love you on your bad days"? Nuh uh.
WHY IT DOESNT APPLY TO EL:
-When they're at Rinkomainia and El hits Angela, he's all like "WHAT DID YOU DO" and then he doesn't sit next to her and comfort her (we'll get back to who he is next to).
-The day after Rinkomainia he just confronts her with everything and when she tries to tell him how she feels he just shuts it down. He also knows that she wanted to hear that he still loved her but WHYYYY couldn't he say it? It parallels Nancy and Steve in season two where Nancy can't tell Steve she loves him bc she doesn't.
WHY IT APPLIES TO WILL:
-When Will was possessed and sent demodogs to the lab, Mike was still there by his side. When he made it out he was holding Will in his arms (cuties). When everyone was trying to get Will to talk, Mike was talking to Will about the day they met. Even after all that he didn't leave Will's side. Clearly that was a bad day 💀
-In season 3 when Will was upset at Mike and he was all like "it's not my fault you dont like girls" (it is). Will pedaled away and Mike was like omg I fricked up 💀. HE DROVE ACROSS TOWN TO APOLOGIZE. WHEN DOES HE DO SMTH LIKE THAT W EL??? 🤨
-Back to Rinkomainia Will and Mike start fighting abt how Mike never tried to contact him (which actually is a miscommunication bc Mike did try to call him but the phone was busy and "Mike wont stop whining abt it"). Then they hear a scream and run to see El and Angela. Who is he next to after this happens??? WILL. HE ISNT NEXT TO HIS GF WHO WAS JUST PUBLICLY BULLIED. HES NEXT TO WILL. Even after the argument buddy still doesn't leave his side.
Anyways I'm a bit of a yapper
TL:DR- Mike doesn't love El on her bad days, but he loves Will on his.

Just saw this.....
Tumblr media
Before i say anything let me say i truly want everybody to pay attention to this post and the information inside especially if you agree with the post above.
How little do you know about Elain Archeron?
Let me tell you she has done these things but this person stretched out everything making Elain seem as a person she is not. You seriously think Elain would like anybody who talks about her like this? You think she would be flattered? These are all the people who claim they are Elain stans and change her character left and right.
What's true about what this person said is that she drinks whisky,stabbed the king of hybern,gives airplane gifts,found the suriel, and said ´´I hope they all burn in hell´´. Everything else is false and so disrespectful to her character.
Firstly Elain is seen to be a kind soul who owns up to her mistakes and is thankful for anybody ´s kindness and will remember it forever. That being said, Rhysand was seen once flying Elain to and from The house of wind so she can see her sister. She loves her sister and wants to see her and Rhys is taking her. Do you think she would like that her ´´stans´´ are saying he is her ´´little flying lackey´´ No. She would find you an unpleasant person who lacks respect.
´´Made a 500 year old obsession without even trying´´ You are right. Elain did nothing to have that. It is just because her sisters got with Azriels brothers and the dear shadowsinger formed an idea that Elain is rightfully supposed to be his because you know what, her sisters are with his brothers and that is enough logic. If its an obsession of any sorts, it is an unhealthy one.
Just some reasons:
He feels unworthy to taint her with his presence and hides a part of him (shadows) and hates another (hands) in regards to Elain.
For two years straight all he did was Pump himself and he said himself that he certainly had not gone far with his planning other than his fantasies.
He loved Mor for centuries and after the almost kiss with Elain, he refuses to disclose his feelings for mor. Even in ACOSF it represents he still feels for her.
He says its best to Kill greyson (Elain´s ex lover) even though Elain forbid feyre and others from doing anything to him.
He gets angry at the thought of Elain doing at least something and underestimates her -which is the only canon proof of what he could be thinking so don´t even try. Elain even calls out Nesta who had the same reaction and same reasoning. We have both Nesta and Feyre calling out how they do not like territorial traits from a man.
❗❗❗❗HOSAB SPOILERS❗❗❗❗
He gives credit to Nesta for beheading the king ´´Herself´´ which is a direct parallel to Lucien crediting Elain for her bravery. Before you guys yap about how its factually correct on what he said, do you realise how easy it could have been for sarah to say something like
Azriel said,´´Her sister stabbed the king of hybern,´´ A look towards truthteller and back at bryce and she could have sworn pride swarmed his eyes ´´Nesta beheaded the king of hybern herself´´
Dont bully me i have no idea how to write books but SJM could have put something even more tone down and it would still be an nice Elnotreal moment. Instead she made a direct parallel with what Lucien once said in ACOWAR.
∴ His ´´obsession´´ is super unhealthy.
Anyways whats next?
´´Had the shadowsinger running around´´ I mean go ahead make Elain seem like fricking b**tch. She is so sweet and kind and for some reason you want to take that away to make her seem strong? You have to put down multiple characters to uplift Elain? YOU have to. Not Elain. I can see from people who agree with the statement above (the picture) are simply blind to what Elain offers. There is a strength in her kindness,generosity, manner and feminism. When i see how kind Elain is, i see her strength. I see HER power. She respects all those around her and if i stan her why would i change that narrative?
That being said, Elain would continue to thank everybody who shows her kindness and if you think not than do not even bother saying you are pro Elain.
Same thing with saying she forbid everyone from eating. Elnotreals are seriously taking the forbidden love idea too far. All jokes aside she literally canonically said that they should not wait for her and go ahead and eat. Even if she did say that, no offense to my girl but they would all laugh their a$$ off and continue to eat.
Although Elain distances herself from Lucien, based on her character she would be offended if someone said she does not gaf.
Even this creator would. Imagine i made a anti Elain post saying something along the lines of
´´I hate Elain because she practically does not gaf about the mating bond with lucien and she sucks because of it´´
In this circumstance, you guys would pounce right away and start listing off the reason on why it isn´t the fact she does not gaf its because of _______ etc.
Although you are using it to make her seems as though she is a Girlboss for it? I´m not blaming her because i literally 100% believe it is not the fact she does not care, it's deeper.
´´uglified herself´´ There you go again, disrespecting Elains family, friends. First of all, no one needed Elain to be there, they needed Nesta. They did not choose Elain. They chose Nesta because of her dancing so she could seduce Eris. It was Elains choice to come although no one needed her. Mor always prefers to wear red and she did wear it the court of nightmares. Elain chose to wear black to match as the High Ladys sister in order to match. She herself looks prefers lilaks,blues,pinks but probably told herself she needed to be someone else to fit in. Something Cass and Rhysand has noted. Why are you calling her ugly when her current state is ´´Life being sucked from her´´
You just love disrespecting my girl acting like its a praise. tsk, tsk
Why am i making this post? What if its just a joke?
Its not just that. Many people use this information to uplift Elain while they casually ignore her own choices and personality. So what if this is a joke? On the bottom it says
´´You sure she is not developed enough?´´
Meaning what she wrote is development for Elain. No its not. Its erasing her character and morphing a new one in her place. I could go on and on of other reasons as to why Elain is developed and it is none of those reasons. Most of her development would happen in her own book and from her own pov instead of other characters just like Nesta.
Anyways my hole point is that you dont have to make Elain seem like she runs the ic, or she dominates everybody, or is a mastermind.
Let me get this straight
Feyre is a highlady: STRONG
Nesta is a warrior: STRONG
Elain is a gardener: STRONG
In my opinion it could be stronger. Maybe because im just like her haha but in a world of warrior women or tongue lasher women, she remain her perfect self, Elain Archeron and she would let no man or no ´´stan´´ change that.

Urgent PSA: Everyone who’s ever liked Tales of Arcadia GO WATCH THIS SHOW RIGHT NOW
youtube
Im not kidding it’s EXACTLY THE SAME FLAVOR OF AWESOME
It’s got all the stuff you loved in Trollhunters and Tales of Arcadia
The technically normal kid with a legacy and insanely fricking cool magical armor (Daniel)
The wisecracking best friend who loves to eat more than anything else in the world (Hoagie)
The badass magic user who will mess up anyone with or without magical means (Lucy)
(And I suppose leaving your body to go talk to a long dead member of your legacy also kinda counts as a parallel but that’s a bit of a spoiler so schhhhhhhh 🤫🤫😂)
Also the worldbuilding on this show holy noodles. Loved the gremlins. And the magic system. And the character developments.
Oh and anyone who’s been spending the entire evening binging the second season of Daniel Spellbound and now don’t know what to do with themselves until season 3, y’all might wanna give Trollhunters a try and also I would very much like to talk to you XD
Also Tales of Arcadia isn’t just one tv show no no. It’s THREE TV shows (and I guess a movie also) that are connected to each other! One has trolls! One has aliens! And one has both plus magic users!
Trollhunters is the most like Daniel Spellbound though. And it’s the first one. So you might wanna start with them. Enjoy. You’re very welcome.

Rebels Rewatch: "Legacy"
We learn the answer to the question of Ezra's parents' fate and things are endlessly sad.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This series of slow scale-pan/zoom in shots that start from a wide distance establishing shot and ends on a close-up of Ezra is really effective. Evokes a dreamlike quality even before we duck into Ezra's head. The silence and weird sounds add to the eerie effect.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This whole sequence is obviously retroactively sad. It almost feels like the Force is trying to connect Ezra with his parents one last time. The muted whispers recall the World Between Worlds, Mira and Ephraim's repeated reassurances to Ezra that they're right there, perhaps already dead, with him in the Force? The Force sound effects are bizarre and watery, and there are a couple unusually loud bass thomps that Ezra startles at--Footsteps? Heartbeats? Bodies hitting the floor?
It's a trippy sequence but played entirely seriously, even the lack of fanfare emphasizing how important this episode is.
There's our first instance of the "Twin Moons" cue here.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
:(((((((
Kanan's line here about, "You've never wanted to talk about your parents." suggests that he and Hera did try to let Ezra know that Tseebo had told them something but that he didn't want to hear it at the time. Or that maybe they were waiting for him to bring it up and he never did.
Tumblr media
This is a pretty shot. <3
See, this is why I don't agree with the argument that Hera and Kanan were wrong for not telling Ezra what little they knew. Because... what would it have even accomplished?
"Oh, we maybe know vaguely where your parents are." But they don't have any way to confirm where they are or if they're even still alive and even though they've been looking for probably a year now they've exhausted all resources and are not any closer to an answer. There is net zero information to be gained on Ezra's part, and if he'd known they were looking all it would have done was distract him and drive him to obsessively check in about it.
Which is not something a vulnerable Force Sensitive with attachment issues needs to have added to his plate to worry about.
Meanwhile with the Rebellion plot side of things, Konstantine is debriefing Fifth and Seventh.
Seventh looks meanly happy that Konstantine snarks at Fifth lol.
Side note: There is really pretty lighting in this scene.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Aw frick.
*weeps*
The mass escape happened the previous night. It happened the night Ezra had his vision.
His parents were already dead and he felt it unconsciously through the Force.
In hindsight that might be why he was able to accept it/guess at it so quickly when they were talking to Ryder.
Tumblr media
Right so a lot of my commentary this episode is just going to be me being sad about Ezra's face.
"You have to open your mind to the truth as the Force presents it." Oof. Holocron-shadowing.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This sequence is so cool. A lovely music cue to accompany it too.
Ugh, the parallels to "Vision of Hope" and "Twin Suns", with Ezra leaping headfirst onto the scent of potential information, rushing in, so assured of what his vision means...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Sabine coming out to see what's up with Ezra, and apparently casually listening in on Imperial chatter concerning Lothal.
Also Ezra, you really don't need that helmet, you just want it 'cause it's a present from Sabine you basically use a security blanket lol.
Ezra's theme sounding very bright and lovely here.
Lol Sabine calling Zeb and Chopper delinquents.
Tumblr media
Kanan and Sabine's worried looks at him. <33333
Ezra's agitation here is rightfully a little concerning. He's snapping at his friends, being impatient, short-tempered.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I like this cute little moment here though, Sabine gives him a reassuring nod.
Riiiiiiight before she realizes what the Stormtroopers clearing out of the area means lol.
This protocol being established in Rebels lent some extra dread to that moment in Rogue One when the Star Destroyer moved out from above Jedha's capital.
Ezra isn't focusing, his aim is all off. His theme pipes in here, strained and full of tense strings.
Lol Kanan's expression like, "Shit, did he do all that? That's my kid all right. "<333333
Oooooh the way Ezra's expression changes as soon as he hears Seventh.
He angy.
Yeah uh hon, I don't think charging two Inquisitors twice your size is gonna work. Good thing Kanan interrupts and blasts the door between them so he can give Ezra a moment to collect himself and calm back down.
"You're right. I never knew my parents." :(((( This is sad for two reasons, one, that Kanan is tacitly admitting he can't fully understand Ezra in this one aspect, and two, that he still does understand somewhat because he lost his master right in front of him (who was basically the closest thing he had to a parent) and his entire Order and people.
I think Ezra realizes that because he looks immediately contrite and apologizes.
Tumblr media
:((((((
The music in this scene is great.
Aaaaaaaand the TIE fighters shot a Rebel transport down over a populated civilian city.
Friendly reminder that the Rebels did not do this in the finale.
Awww Chopper waving bye to mom.
Love Hera just straight up bashing the tractor beam generator with the Ghost when the torpedo plan fails.
Sabine checking to see if they're going to follow Kanan and Ezra. <3333
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This whole conversation. <3333
Welp, the dumbass new post editor is making me brush up against an unexpected 30 photo limit, dunno how to turn it off, it's not on a lot of the previous recaps, might have to tweak this post a few times. In the meantime looks like I'm going to be limited in the caps I can post.
Stupid Tumblr.
Tumblr media
Ezra's burned out old home. :(((((
Oh hey, random thought, but would you like me to make this episode even sadder? >:)
So the timeline is a bit loose with Rebels and frankly what they've officially set down makes zero sense. But we know the show starts 5BBY and that Ezra turns 15 in the mid-season episode "Empire Day".
Some fans decided that because "Legacy" is another mid-season episode that means its a year after "Empire Day".
AKA Ezra turned 16 yesterday, the same day his parents died.
After all, what's a better distraction for a massive jailbreak than a mandated galactic holiday, when the Stormtroopers are busy partying? Or so the logic goes.
~You're welcome.~
KITTY! :D
"Aaaand we're chasing Loth-cats now." Kanan sounds so tired lol.
Friiiiiiiick Ezra's hopeful little face when Ryder says he knows his parents. :((((((
Clancy Brown trying to break out of his typecast voicing someone who's NOT a villain for a change.
Tumblr media
Bbbbbyyyyyyyyy. :(((((((((
"Twin Moons" coming in again, all in sad somber strings.
Not remembering exactly which of the writers/producers said it, but pretty sure behind-the-scenes Word of God confirmed that Ephraim and Mira realized it was only a matter of time before the Empire would connect the dots from Ezra to them because of his message, and that's why they A) led the jailbreak in the first place, and B) let themselves be killed in the escape when they got separated, rather than be used as blackmail against their son.
You know, in case the episode wasn't already sad enough. :)
Man, Ezra's face, I can't.
*sobs*
Tumblr media
Right, I know I can't add many more caps but this hug needed to be capped. Look, even Chopper is patting Ezra's knee kjhkjafhkas.
"Twin Moons" playing out in somber female vocals now and I'm SO mad that Tumblr decided to finally randomly change/update my post editor I NEED TO CAP EVERY SINGLE FRAME.
From Ezra's sad curled up position, the despondency in his eyes, the breeze moving through the Lothal grass in gentle rivulets, how the light shifts as Ezra enters his vision, the glorious shimmer of Capital City in a world without the Empire, that shot of Ephraim's hand joining Ezra's on the railing...
This is such a beautiful sequence.
So so mad about the photo limit.
Kanan comforting Ezra by talking about how the Jedi view death, as merely energy changing forms, and that Ezra's parents are alive inside him.
I don't think it's a coincidence that "They will be. Always." recalls "The Force will be with you, always."
Man. :((((((
So this is a beautiful episode, very plot heavy, ends the mini Garel portion of the season and drives the Rebels even further afield from Lothal, which I suppose makes it appropriate that we're allowed to visit it one last time this season.
The confirmation of the deaths of his parents would serve to unbalance Ezra again, after the serenity he'd found at the end of "Brothers of the Broken Horn", and the grief will be lingering through the whole rest of the season, arguably the rest of the show.
Ezra takes it... so remarkably well though, which speaks to his character maturity. The support of the others, especially Kanan--who understands full well what it's like to lose someone and be alone in your grief--helps too. Kanan's relationship with Ezra, always a highlight of the show, shines through here in how understanding and present he is for Ezra.
The animation and music are phenomenal this episode, perfectly serving the story and of course looking gorgeous to boot.
Plus there are lots of pretty shots of Ezra looking sad so...
Yeah I love this episode.

the cosmic turnabout is underrated af and always overshadowed by turnabout for tomorrow so i'm going to make a list of things that are awesome about it because it's my secret favourite case
it takes place in a SPACE CENTRE with ROCKETS. there are literally ASTRONAUTS. if you're a space enjoyer then this case has the greatest vibe and aesthetic and is made for you. the cutscene at the beginning is so space movie.
just the fact that the guy called apollo is best friends with an astronaut. i bet the localisation team were high fiving each other at how well that worked out
the bit when the judge asks what the bomb transport case is and simon's like "YOUR COFFIN >:D" lmao?????
and you already know from the first case that there's a dead body in there which makes it more cursed which makes it eVEN FUNNIER
actually the fact that this case is quite literally-speaking blown apart by a bomb and the two pieces fall either side of turnabout countdown... it's pretty creative, i know it's weird but i like it
junie gives apollo a raw lotus root and he just. eats it. he eats it raw. stuffs it straight in his mouth. cronch. i don't blame him tho like i don't think i'd be able to have brain cells either if my bestie had just been murdered
speaking of which, CLAY TERRAN IS SO FUCKING COOL I CAN'T EVEN BEGIN TO EXPLAIN????? everyone who knew him is always talking about how he was so cool and he loved life and living and apollo and he was always trying to cheer everyone up and make people feel better like an infectious ray of sunshine. he's named after the planet he never got to leave. he's like a mix of apollo and athena's personalities but as a hot astronaut. like if kazuma "i love my BFF" asogi wasn't an edgy emo badboy and was a cheerleader sunshine boy instead. dude is the actual goat and probably my fav victim in the entire series
like they had to kill him off to nerf him bc he would be too powerful otherwise, he's that perfect. he had the secondmost badass death (the most badass was... someone from turnabout revolution. if you know, you know) listen he took part in this cool badass switcharoo with the rockets to save him and sol from a bomb, then he carried a passed-out sol EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE BOTH IN THEIR HEAVY SPACESUITS, AND THEN DEFENDED THE HOPE CAPSULE FROM A SUPERSPY DESPITE BEING EXHAUSTED AND GETTING STABBED AND DYING AND HE SUCCEEDED EVEN THOUGH HE DIED
the original japanese title for this case is "the turnabout that became a star" in case you wanted to cry harder
his friendship with apollo makes me sob like a baby. apollo can barely deal with the grief and he even has the first of his breakdowns we ever see, and now i'm thinking about the backstory of how they met and all the optional dialogue you can get about the two of them and i could talk about how they're also a parallel to aura and metis (and how athena and sol have parallels regarding ptsd in their career fields) but you're not ready for it and it's another essay entirely
it's even mentioned how apollo and clay were competitive over who could achieve their dream first, and when apollo became a lawyer and showed his badge to clay, clay was so fricking happy about it as if he'd achieved his dream too, and supported apollo through the plot of the previous game behind the scenes and just... okay competitive-supportive friendship WHY DOES THAT ALSO REMIND ME OF APOLLO AND ATHENA? man she would be the perfect person to help apollo cope with the loss of clay... if he didn't, you know, suspect her of killing him
actually apollo losing faith in athena is so heavily foreshadowed in the previous case it makes me insane. also in TWO of the previous cases he brings up clay, in fact in turnabout academy he does it so much that athena pesters him about wanting to meet the guy herself so don't give me any of that "clay was never referenced before the case where he suddenly shows up dead" nonsense YES HE WAS and anyway we KNOW apollo hardly ever talks about his personal life at work, it literally becomes a plot point in the following game, so the fact that he rarely mentions clay makes it MORE personal to him imo okay rant over
actually in turnabout academy we find out apollo and clay have a psychic connection (i'm not kidding about this, this is canon) which means apollo probably sensed the exact moment clay got stabbed, i'm gonna die wtf
apollo having the bandage on his eye before the bombing is. chef's kiss. it's so mysterious and then we find out he did it to restrict his own powers so that he would stop doubting athena. i'm not crying i'm fine. and then he looks so badass later with the coat on and he even looks kinda like dhurke. i SAID i'm not crying shut up
apollo!!! leaving the office!!!!! i'm like 90% convinced he still lowkey hates phoenix tbh (this is more relevant in the next case but it does feel apparent here too) like remember in the previous game when he punched him lol?? i wonder if he wishes he could do that again
i've played this case a million times yet i always forget about the bomb going off in the middle of the trial, it's practically a jumpscare. i love it
also apollo and simon both taking the case so deathly seriously while everyone else is just like "haha funny buzz lightyear case" is also chef's kiss. that bit at the end when athena gets accused and suddenly everyone else starts taking it seriously too. it's one of the very rare cases where the canon ending is BAD auuugh i'm not sane enough for this
solomon starbuck talking about what it felt like to be in the HAT-1 is bloody terrifying. i will have nightmares about this scene
ALSO HE WAS CLAY'S FRIEND TOO I'M SMAD. CLAY KNEW ABOUT SOL'S ASTROPHOBIA AND SUPPORTED HIM AND LOOKED UP TO HIM ALL THE SAME. IMAGINE THIS LITTLE GUY STANS YOU AND EVENTUALLY BECOMES YOUR CO-ASTRONAUT AND THEN HE DIES AND YOU GET BLAMED FOR IT. CRYING SCREAMING ETC
yuri cosmos is funny. he's just a guy on a segway who has looney tunes powers. he would have been the incompetent sidekick of detective arme at the trial if she wasn't, you know, a corpse.
Athena Already Knew Ponco And Ponco Already Knew Her *whispers* they are so siblings
she even starts talking like ponco after just a little while of chatting??? god no wonder she couldn't tell the difference between robots and humans when she was a kid, i love her so much
and when you examine the boarding lounge with her, she strongly implies she would be an alienfucker or at least that she supports alienfuckers. i am not making this up i promi s e
AURA BLACKQUILL. 'NUFF SAID.
the plan with the launch pads switching around is wack and i'm actually obsessed with it. i'm picturing clay dragging drugged-up sol through the museum and sol's like "huh the rocket looks weeeeird.. .?" and clay's like "uhhhh nnnope haha, no it doesn't, it looks completely normal and fine, ignore all those exhibits on the walls-" jshfkskfsk
and athena was literally passed out in there in a random corner?? well we don't really find that out until the next case but still??? she was RIGHT THERE???
(i'm sorry i can't shut up about clay) it turns out clay also did the "i'm fine!!" early morning chords of steel exercises, so i imagine him and apollo waking up early every morning to voice call each other and do their i'm fine thing together. apollo cheering encouragement at clay while he's doing his astronaut training just like they used to with solomon. just stab me with a fork made of lava it would hurt less
also when apollo was in the hospital he adjusted his chords of steel workouts to be like "THANK U DOCTOR FOR TAKING CARE OF ME" that's so wholesome??? doesn't stop him ripping off all the bandages in the next case and probably bleeding out in court but whatever, i cannot expect him to be normal in these circumstances
you know how in the previous game, no one ever respects him and he's kinda a loser? well here he gets to do something undeniably BADASS, just like his badass astronaut bestie. he saves junie's life during the bombing. idk if it was a "i just lost my best friend, i'm not letting athena lose hers too" or just being a brave person who wants to protecc his friend or what but i'm just glad he finally gets to be cool in a way that no one can deny. and then the next game takes it to the next level with how badass he gets HOOOOOOO BOY
the bit where apollo is talking to clay about how he doesn't have a mum is supposed to be sad and it definitely is, but if you've played the previous game then it is also hysterical. yeah apollo it's not like you went to her concert or use one of her songs as your literal phone ringtone or anything lmaooooooo
this is by no means an exhaustive list and i've barely scratched the surface of how good this case is but trust me it's SO GOOD. it's understandable that it gets overshadowed considering it's basically the same case as turnabout for tomorrow which is the finale, but it holds up on its own too and i love it dearly. the only case that makes me more emo is frickin turnabout revolution, aka the most bonkers emotional case of all time, so that's saying something.
oH ALSO THE SECOND HALF OF COSMIC TURNABOUT TAKES PLACE ON MY BIRTHD-- *gets dragged offstage*

I love tango and Jimmy so much, they’re a mess (affectionate) but they’re so wholesome to, they’re just forgiving and hyping each other up at every little things, it’s so cute!
Also thematic parallels being paired together, yes please!
Like, Jimmy’s death are always as meaningfull as possible that make trafficblr scream, while Tango just blew himself up on accident or got caught in the crosfire of war and the bearly register it happend before moving on (my boy, now even a death as basique as a creeper explosion won’t save you from trafficblr fricking out)
Or the fact that, when you think of jimmy you think fish and tango you think blaze, just, water boy and fire boy!!!!
Or even the fact that jimmy is always compared to an angel and Tango to a little devil in fannon really funny
There’s just something so great about that duo, I never thaught I needed it but now that I have it, I’m keeping it!

JJK SPOILERS AHEAD!!
"itadori x megumi parallel satoru x suguru" "megumi is suguru/ satoru and itadori is satoru/-" makes complete sense, super valid! but also HEAR ME OUT-
how about itadori x junpei being a parellel of gojo x geto?
• junpei and geto both have to go through traumatizing circumstances regularly (junpei with the bullying. and geto with the swallowing curses).
• both meeting the love of their lives- their (best) friends in itadori and gojo and forming a deep bond of kindness, understanding and love between them.
• both being intelligent, idealistic, philosophical (?), deep thinkers unsatisfied with the way the world works (i think geto, unconsciously atleast, feels that way from the start?)
• both having someone they deeply care for (junpei's mom and riko-chan)
• both of the above dying in super unfair and sudden, unexpected ways, leaving a deep mark on the two they left behind
• both straying more towards the hateful, evil side of things, influenced by their own traumatic experiences and memories and their urge to find meaning in a world that seems to be more and more different than what they thought it was everyday.
• both being teenagers. 17. kids.
• junpei becomes a better person and realizes the err of his ways before causing too much damage and geto... not being a good person, committing genocide and murder against non-sorcerers while adopting a downright abhorrent way of thinking to hate and discriminate against them. junpei really cooled down before he could go too far while geto broke the fricking meter, i guess. this is where the parallel probably breaks `~` oh and also junpei is.. influenced a bit more easily while geto.. not really? he's very stubborn and dedicated to his ideas.
• both die T_T
• both of their deaths scar the love of t- their friends (ita & gojo) and shape them into who they become.
and that's it i guess! they have many differences too, but these similarities just occurred to me and i thought they seemed interesting so :) i may be completely wrong or out of my field on any of these things so feel free to have your own thoughts/ takes and take these with a grain of salt lol.

I loved Ezra so much too!!! I’m worried about his future though, SW has a history of killing off or ruining their best characters 
I feel this with every fiber of my being. Ezra is really special to me, and literally every other character in Star Wars that is special to me is dead! 
I gotta say, I’m not just worried about them killing Ezra though. I’m worried about him being sidelined despite how powerful and competent he was shown to be in Rebels. He had a huge connection to the WBW and the Loth-Wolves, which are both inherently tied to the Mortis gods. I don’t like the idea of him being left out of that storyline going forward. 
It was also strange to me that he didn’t know anything about Thrawn’s base, or what the witches were up to. Ezra is known for sneaking around and ruining people’s evil plans, so it felt weird that he hadn’t interacted with them much or gone back there at all to sabotage them. Speaking of which, I thought it would be really cool for Ezra and Thrawn to begrudgingly team up and work together during their time away from the galaxy like everyone wanted, but oh well. 😒
I’m hoping they parallel Thrawn’s devotion to the Ascendancy with Ezra’s devotion to Lothal at some point; I just think that would be neat to explore. I like when heroes and villains have complicated relationships and connections. Despite Thrawn’s hatred of Ezra, I think he would admire Ezra’s commitment to protecting his people since that’s his own main goal in life. 
There’s also theories about Maul coming back since he has connections to the Mortis Son, and I hope that’s true because Maul and Ezra have one of my favorite dynamics in all of Star Wars. Like I said, I love when heroes and villains have complicated relationships! Plus I want my dream of Maul being redeemed to happen. That poor guy never had a chance at a real life being raised by Darth Sidious, as Obi Wan pointed out in Clone Wars. I think he genuinely cared about Savage and he genuinely cares about Ezra, even if it manifests in a super toxic and disturbing way as a dark sider. I want him to find true peace and become one with the Force on the light side, but I don’t know if I’m lucky enough to get that! 
We’ll see how it all goes, but I am excited to see Ezra meet the other Mandoverse characters (especially Din and Grogu, their interactions will be so interesting to see)! I do wish that he got a purple lightsaber though. I love the emitter as a nod to Kanan, but the standard blue color doesn’t suit the fact that he’s the incarnate of chaos. The blue one he used to have had a fricking gun attached to it for crying out loud! Or it would be hilarious if he just went through all the colors. Every season of every show he’s on his kyber crystal breaks, so every time we see him, he’s got a new color! (I'm only half kidding, that would actually be super funny 🤣 )
I hope we get to see him thrive in his Disney Princess Era™ and tame all the animals going forward! No matter what, Eman is going to kill it. Ezra's by far the best animation to live action character transition we've had!

how the heck did you get all of that nonsense from a fricking kids show for children
Reunion features a tight parallelism between its interpersonal and political conflicts. Sasha abuses Anne; the toads oppress the frogs. Anne stands up for herself; the frogs rebel. Both threads climax in the duel upon Toad Tower, where Anne and Sasha serve as champions of their respective species.
Taking season one as a whole, we see that Sasha, a bully secure in her control of her friends, lands in the seat of a tyrannical government, and that when her control is challenged, the Tower explodes—while Anne, guilty about betraying her parents, lands among an adoptive family that teaches her moral lessons, where she remains sheltered from the wider world until she demonstrates newfound moral fortitude.
Hence my reading of Amphibia as a symbolic dreamscape, where the teens' personal baggage manifests as talking animals. I'm just trying to see how far the parallelism extends.
Under this paradigm, Newtopia symbolizes Marcy's love of school. Right? Newts are presented as a scholarly race, and Marcy spends a bunch of time taking classes, leveling up her skills, and using her big brain to solve problems. But there's a lot going on with the newts that doesn't map onto education. Andrias in particular—he's supposed to be, what, some kind of evil principal? That doesn't really track.
So I've turned to the subtle and not-so-subtle implications of sexual violence peppered throughout Marcy's character arc. The most obvious is her forcible conversion into Darcy, a scene with which multiple survivors of sexual assault have expressed familiarity—the horror, the loss of agency, the bodily violation (though of course that's not universal; people will react to art in different ways)—and is preceded by the second most obvious scene, Andrias ramming Marcy through with his giant sword. While I expect I'm wrong about a lot of the nitty-gritty symbolism—like whether the butterfly-with-teeth imagery evokes vagina dentata—I do want to pay attention to those little things, because they might coalesce into a larger pattern.
I don't like pigeonholing Amphibia as a "kids' cartoon." Matt Braly has talked openly about trying to push the envelope and carve out space for PG-13 animation, and the crew was punished for it when Disney tried to censor Marcy's impalement. Nor do I see any reason, even if this were straightforwardly a children's show for children, to ignore its capacity for meaning.

im making dangerous romance my entire personality so im sorry to all my non-bl mutuals for the spamming of your dash every Friday night/saturday morning but its gotta happen
Tumblr media
this is how I pose for photos
Tumblr media
A KISS???
PLS LET IT BE A KISS
Tumblr media
EEEEEEEEEEEEE
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR AGESSSSSS
but also kang's gonna cry in this scene. we've seen it in the end credits, sailom wearing kang's jersey and hugging kang and grinning while kang is full on sobbing and I still can't guess why kang would be sobbing while sailom's grinning and comforting him
thats adorable
Tumblr media
I literally love them so much
Tumblr media
OH
Tumblr media
OH HONEYYY
HE'S TEARING UP
I GET IT NOW
Tumblr media
IT'S OKAY KANG HONEY, YOU'RE ALLOWED TO CRY
I actually really love this
like a lot
generally crying is associated with sad things and characters in shows, particularly if they're men, usually only portray crying as sad, but its actually perfectly normal to cry for literally any emotion at all, and its so refreshing to see him tearing up so much that he needs to wipe it away with his hand, but not because something bad happened, because he's so proud of himself and of how far hes come and it just makes him cry, nothing more complicated than that.
you see, im pretty sure my emotions are stored in my eyes, and I think I generally feel overwhelming amounts of emotions more often than the average person, so at least once a day, those emotions come spilling out because there's just too much of it to keep in my eyes at once
im honestly genuinely surprised I still have tears left
wait how are tears made
where do they come from
how do they not run out
google is not answering my question properly and im too tired and stupid to process whole-ass articles and research thingies so can Someone Who Knows Things please get back to me on this? like how do our eyes just keep producing tears over and over again without running out of stock
Tumblr media
so. he couldnt find his watch. he found out one of his employees stole it. he fired that employee. he's now grumpy because he has to water plants himself now. another employee offered to do the plant watering for him. in exchange, he's giving the employee the very same watch.
do you see what im tryna say here? and what everyone else also probably noticed? it just doesnt make sense
the math aint mathin
Tumblr media
is it... leverage against saifah?
because he told him to water the plants every day from now on
idk man im too tired for this to figure out what's going on
Tumblr media
he's ridiculous, I love him
Tumblr media
like I said at the start of the episode sailom, you're boyfriends now, there's no WAY he's letting you keep your personal space
Tumblr media
AAA
HJSHDJHDJGH
Tumblr media
oh. so it's... not them running away? it's just them heading to a training camp?
wait but in that shot in the intro they dont have much with them. surely thats not them going to a training camp, that's gotta be them running away????
Tumblr media
...
here it comes. here comes the angst. a lot later in the episode than I was expecting, but it's here nonetheless and im not happy about it
Tumblr media
go shove a cactus up your ass you bastard
Tumblr media
OHOHOHOH I THINK THEY ARE ABOUT TO RUN AWAY
BECAUSE WHAT KANGSAILOM ARE CURRENTLY WEARING IS WHAT THEYRE WEARING IN THAT SHOT IN THE INTRO
AND THEY JUST RODE THE BIKE TO SCHOOL
AND THEY JUST TALKED ABOUT GOING TO KORAT
SO I THINK THEY'RE LITERALLY RIGHT ABOUT TO LEAVE AND HAUL THEIR ASSES OUT OF THERE
like right at the end of the episode probably
Tumblr media
perth tanapon sukumpantanasan is a wonder
Tumblr media
PARALLELS TO EPISODE 1 WHERE KANG WAS TELLING SAILOM TO PROSTATE HIMSELF ON HIS KNEES
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ASSHOLE
BASTARD
PRICK
BULLY
BITCH
THERE ARE NOT WORDS ENOUGH TO EXPRESS THE NAMES I WANT TO CALL HIM
Tumblr media
IM AGGRESSIVELY FLIPPING OFF MY SCREEN RIGHT NOW HE'S TERRIBLE AND DISGUSTING AND HORRIBLE AND I KNEW HE WAS BAD AND I KNEW HE WOULD BE THIS BAD BUT HOLY FRICK THIS IS DISGUSTING I can't wait for this man to be shot
Tumblr media
excellent closing words
turn your back and walk away from this mess (and come back to a crime scene where your father has been shot and your boyfriend's brother is being arrested in front of the house but we'll get to that when it comes to it)
Tumblr media
I get what he's feeling and what he means but kang, you still have your friends, you still have your boyfriend, your grandma, you're not completely alone
Tumblr media
thank you sailom for pointing out to him that he's not alone, you're doing me a huge favour (especially considering im a viewer through a screen and not someone who can actually interact with kang so anything I say is kind of pointless)
Tumblr media
hugs :(
Tumblr media
OKAY SO THE THING IS RIGHT
this is really sad and horrible and all that stuff
but, but but but but, he's cried three times in one episode. and one of those times wasn't crying from sadness. that doesnt happen often and I think we should acknowledge that
I love kang for being an emotional mess, he's like me frfr
Tumblr media
side note: all of sailom's hugs look so comfortable
Tumblr media
YESSSSS THEYRE FINALLY GONNA KISS NEXT EPISODE
and like I know they've technically already kissed twice but I mean they're finally gonna kiss good if that makes sense
the first time was revenge, and im sorry kang but the second time was just bad. that was a bad kiss.
WHICH, BY THE WAY, IS FINE
its okay to have a bad first kiss
in fact, there should be MORE bad first kisses in relationships in fictional media
also: loved the gay motorbike commercial in the post-credits scene thingy
ANYWAY this episode was amazing and it was so fluffy and I loved it all so so so much and I'll definitely be rewatching it every day over the next week to keep the brainworms under control, like im slapping flex seal over a crack in my soul repeatedly every day until the next episode comes out
goodnight folks, its nearly 3am, have a wonderful evening/day/morning/whatever, and keep calm and sailom

Mark of Athena, first reading thoughts:
—Forgot to post this again, who knows how long this has been on my notes.
—First, I loved having Annabeth's pov, I missed her as a central character and I loved the development she had here.
—BRO, they are all TOGETHER NOW AND THEY ARE IN A FLYING SHIP HAVING ADVENTURES. This the perfect setup, I would have read a 10 books series of just this.
—I liked so many diferent povs, at first I thought it may become confusing, but far from it, it was fun and so dinamic. I already love all these characters and getting in their heads throught the book was great.
— PERCY AND ANNABETH FINALLY REUNITED. 😭 It was so cute, 10/10
—The Argo II WAS SO COOL. It kind of reminded me of Legends of Tomorrow and I fricking love that show, I wish this dynamic of the seven on the ship lasted forever, I adore that kind of premise. Even the moments when they just weren´t getting along were interesting.
—I felt a vein popping out of my eye with all the Camp Jupiter hunting them down thing, because it was just a misunderstanding, but I do understand why it happend (a little), and it was just so frustraiting.
—All the interactions with Nemesis, Echo and Narcissus were such a trip, jesus.
—God, I fucking love Leo, not only because he is so funny, but because he is so incredibly smart. Is a diffrent kind of smart then Annabeth, wich I really love, they both bring interesting things to the table and is a delight to read.
—Wich is why Leo feeling so left out and like the "seventh wheel" was much more heartbreaking. He makes concernig comments the whole book, but because is just in his head nobody notices. I dont like where this is going...
—As much as I loved all the adventures, I was so stressed out for Nico the whole time, it was driving me insane.
—GJFHUYREGFEU Every single pov is so interesting, this book was GOLD. This is a masterclass in how to make distinctive narrative voices, it was so good.
—The break between Percy and Jason was actually very interesting. I was afraid it would be reduced to petty jelousy (wich it is a little, but I mean, they are teenagers), but there was some nuace there. Like, I felt like it drew interesting parallels of what makes them so opossite despite being the " "liders" " of their camps. It even drives home what makes the roman demigods and the greek demigods diferent.
—Jason being so serius and even cold, and Percy being as hotheaded as he is. Jason not knowing any other life apart from being a soldier vs Percy rejecting that life every chance he gets. Even the diferent perception they both have of the gods because each know a side of them the other doesn´t.
—Their possesed fight was kind of funny tbh.
—I also love having the chance to explore each characters powers with every obstacle, I feel like it was very well used, I never thought, "well, why didnt they used x power."
—"Please, she thought, wondering if her mom, the goddess of love, could hear her. Don’t let it be Jason’s final breath. If love means anything, don’t take him away" Oh, Piper, honey. These kids are legit breaking my heart.
—I really liked the scene of Annabeth and Percy on the stables, it was so sweet.
—I dont know exactly what it is, but I can tell this is a much more curated, experienced writter. And is absolutely fantastic to get so far into the series because I can tell by now Riordan knows these characters so well. They have so many layers, is specially interesting with Percy and Annabeth because we see them grow so much.
—The scene at the aquarium was very creepy and fun.
—Percy developing a fear of drowning was like, so sad.
—Ok Leo, I love you, but dont need to be a bully, come on.
—Jesus, the whole conflict Annabeth had with her mom in this book made me so sad. The way all the gods just use their children (and have been for generations) gets more unberable with each book, I dont respect any of them, these kids just... still try to make them proud and not think ill of them and its so unfair.
—Even the interaction with Aphrodite, I just kept getting angry. I got bad flashbacks from her praising the other two girls in front of Piper and making those weird comments.
—On this one it hits harder and harder that all this kids want is a future, a good life, and they just never get a chance.
—“You dropped this,” he said, totally poker-faced.
Annabeth threw her arms around him. “I love you!” (I died, actually)
—Was not a fan of Hercules´s aproach. Moving on.
— "Percy blinked. “So your brother is a winged horse. But you’re also my half brother, which means all the flying horses in the world are my... You know what? Let’s forget it.”
He’d learned years ago it was better not to dwell too much on who was related to whom on the godly side of things. After Tyson the Cyclops adopted him as a brother, Percy decided that that was
about as far as he wanted to extend the family." - Percy, I love you.
—Wisdom’s daughter walks alone. SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP
—The minute Annabeth went on her own I was so nervous, my heart was racing the rest of the book.
—Geez, I wanted to hug her so bad, everything just kept getting worse and worse.
—Gaea is seriusly getting on my nerves.
—There’s too much going on,” he said. “And honestly…before last month, I didn’t even know
when my birthday was. Thalia told me the last time she was at camp.” - That is so fucking sad.
— “What is that?” Jason asked nervously.
Piper slipped her hand into his. “The ghosts are dancing."
Dude! That entire scene of Piper, Percy and Jason and how it ralted with the story of the flood was AMAZING. Easy one of my favorite scenes from the whole saga.
—Rescuing Nico had me so stressed
—"Entertain me, heroes of Olympus." I- Im gonna kill him. I´m gonna kill ALL THE GO-
—Ok, but I liked Percy and Jason coming together and fighting alongside each other.
—Oh my poor Nico, CAN HE GET A BREAKE FOR ONCE
—My girl Annabeth, she is so smart, ahhhhh!
—But Also, WHAT WAS THE NEED TO MAKE HER SUFFER SO MUCH
—Few scenes had me in such a hold and as emotionally invested as the scene when Percy and Annabeth fall to Tartarus. What the Actual Hell. I was speechless for like an hour. The emotion, the tension, the terrible, brilliant moment when everything suddenly conects.
PEAK LITERATURE
— Nemesis wanted him to wreak vengeance on Gaea? Leo would be happy to oblige. He was going to make Gaea sorry she had ever messed with Leo Valdez.
I am filled with dread, and fear, and hype.

Congratulations on the 12th anniversary of ADiSA in the Null Verse since its launch. From the concept stage as an idea, notes certainly back then, to the full knighted story today. Whether from the personal literature writing project on your own initiative, constantly advancing plots, original characteristics in the western sense, shaped in complex themes and insights into the ideas and concepts behind them, in warp evolve steps in writing & effort, the world-building, realistically accurate reference to Digimon and its canon elements , on the decision to continue the dramatic, compassionate story for public publication and share integrated open-minded readers on the fan blog. Like ask, off topic or valuable trivia, fanwork integration and presentation. Whether on reading you start with Examon`s recruitment and follow his career in the insertion of the Royal Knights order, question yourself and observe the serious gray antoganists with their authorization and movements, for their own and the plot, complicated inner conflicts among themselves, the handling and meddling of entire groups, the observation in steps of the maturing & evolving of an new Generation, the fall of Heros, Villians alike in their being or fall into favorism and interest themselves in the Mercs and supporting characters who provide impressive support for the dynamics of the various interests and groups. Even hidden Digimon in the background do a lot of hard work for the conflicts of interests. Even short, long ago cameo appearances - easily consciously overlooked - turn out to be legitimately important characters of consequences and enrichment.
Thanks for this so long and well written journey of your own for the public.
Myself included, I've been reading both ADiSA+HW chapter by chapter again and every so often since 2017 shortly after Odaiba Memorial, or the story arcs in a different observation for more perspectives. Be as in relation to the view of Examon, Sleipmon, Alphamon or Antoganistennin black or gray contrastic view and their reason.
Back then I was looking for fanfic about the Royal Knights, based on their official reference facts formed into a story, or finally in a positive heroic perspective instead of the predominantly antagonistic route from the media at the time.
I read 3 fics, 2 unsatisfactory but only Adisa remained with overwhelming appreciation. The dramatic, detailed, multi-layered, comical and fricking compassionate, emotionally appreciated characters. The descriptions, intense long fights, original ideas and worldbuilding with such realistic meaning in an almost contemporary period of time are presented with love in detail and reference. And in between all the drama, surprises and developments of the characters parallel to the development of the plots and story as a full-length history now. These Digimon are so damn well written realistically, and yet they are still Digimon in their aspects. They are Digimon, they are emotional feeling Characters in an human way too but are still digital monsters alike. You can imagine every scene, struggling, action loaded fights, the dialogue and personal fights dramatic in detail. You can immediately recognize every voice of every Digimon from each other, even if there are now over 30 fixed characters in rotation. The reader will once again appreciate your work and creativity and also support. Thanks for all the time and full time througs of planning Griff!! You represent your reflections on Digimon so accurately, and your Null Verse with its inhabitants in your own living view with full spirit in the sense of each Digimon of whether triumphant or in their own crushing doubts and harsh reality, with full justification. Each plot or scene, interaction can viewed in different ways or observation. I've already cried to often with the Digimon, over certain situations and suffering, but also joy and empathy often with so many characters, between the lines. The varity of consequences in which direction and perspective chapters can develop and or end in drama is crazy, even if usually only one option out of many is chosen or a completely different route. When I think back before the XW era almost blindly about western Digimon fiction like RPG based on fun characterization and observation and handling on characters about Digimon in a different medium at that time. Your Fiction is an absolute blessing to read and jewel for the open-minded Digimon fanbase of creative work. An own Digital World full of potential. With so much hardwork in length on your own in so much writing on virtual paper for pages. Thanks for all the time of years in passion, broad well knowledge, alignments in the implementation of decisions and ideas, your wholesome characters and talented well emotional writing style, in deep heartbleeding in text & imagination with your own work. So congratulation again, and i wish good writing process for the future. I hope all have fun on going alike, with or within this massive Milestone and work - with the Royal Knights and the red Dragon in Shining Armour. :D
Wow, thank you so much! What an awesome review!
This was very touching to read. I'm really happy to hear you say those kind words. A Dragon in Shining Armour and Holy War are passion projects of mine, so it makes me happy to know that the passion is able to shine though. I'm really happy with the world and characters that I've created. I still think I have room to improve in certain areas, but I'm happy to know how much you've enjoyed reading. ^^ I'm a little slower churning out chapters these past six months, but I'm trying to get back into the swing of it, and I'm definitely putting all of my effort in when I do. Thanks for your continued support.
Thank you for this really well thought out comment. It was really touching to read. I appreciate it.
