“Soldier,” Vengeance of the Moon Knight (Vol. 2/2024), #3.

#Marvel #Marvel comics #Marvel 616 #Vengeance of the Moon Knight #Vengeance of the Moon Knight vol. 2 #Vengeance of the Moon Knight 2024 #Moon Knight comics #latest release #Soldier #Tigra #Greer Nelson #I love this distinction between what Moon Knight does/did in vol. 9 compared to other heroes #don’t get me wrong I obviously love Spider-Man (and only to a slightly lesser extent Daredevil) but this is a cool difference #feels a little more grounded almost like community defense as opposed to a high-flying cape issue #also fascinating comparing to a drug implying these low level villains are thrill seekers/adrenaline junkies #but most critically…hmmm….this may just be more indicative of my own perspective than anything (bear with me) #but interestingly those last two text boxes on finding the balance between keeping a group too scared to make a move #and not so scared that they get desperate/have nothing left to lose #is very similar to the basis of a theory of counterinsurgency #that an iron fist can keep a group from developing means + will to organize but the ruling regime must be careful #to not be too cruel or else it will push the group into survival mode/win it sympathy from the local or international population #(it’s very reminiscent of Machiavelli’s The Prince) #Mind you it’s a theory usually entertained by authoritarian regimes where people have few de facto civil rights #and its efficacy/sustainability’s debatable as it takes one hiccup with the regime (markedly weak ruler/secession crisis/natural disaster/ #excessive use of force/etc) for the insurgency to flair up again #Marc’s past with the CIA is mentioned in this issue so I wonder if that’s what this is all about #but uuuuuh yeah do with that info what you will sorry hahaha #don’t mind me rambling in the tags

I need, in my life, Post-Indigo Disk, Drayton being the only one who realizes this chick who fell out of the sky because of Celebi—who has brown and green hair in a weird pattern that suspiciously resembles two people he knows—is Kiki and Juli's future daughter

Drayton: Hey, don't you think her hair looks kind of...interesting?

Kieran: It's the same shade of brown as Juliana's <3

Drayton, standing in front of him: Okay, but what else?

Kieran: ...

Kieran, who was watching Juliana tell the girl about Miraidon: Well, I'd be able to tell you if you weren't blocking my way!

Carmine does catch on, but a part of her thinks it's funny to pretend that she doesn't get the very logical conclusion he's pointing out because it's so rare for her to be the one with the upper hand??

It gets better when the girl catches on to what Aunt Carmine's doing, and she's like, "sorry, Uncle Drayton, this is for all the times you played a prank on me. Aunt Carmine's my favorite now <3"

#dipplinshipping #trainer kieran #rival kieran #trainer juliana #trainer carmine #trainer drayton #i was just thinking about how celebi was the OG way #and then I thought of snacksworth #and that he+juliana could very well instill a sense of appreciation for legendary pokemon in the kid #so she's just climbing a mountain and then celebi does a little funny and the rope snaps but thankfully she had a flying type on her #just to make sure the entire class know who did it celebi shows up when someone asks the kid what happened #and she's like THAT! THAT HAPPENED! #and then I was thinking about how her biggest threat is actually Drayton #because he's gonna KNOW but she's also the most fond of him #also i say kid but she's like sixteen #it is immensely awkward to look at a pair of sixteen year olds who can barely look at each other without blushing #and think of her “married for two decades” parents with like three human kids and then whatever the hell's up with Ogerpon and Miraidon #drayton is the opelucid city gym leader and her parents are former champions turned teachers at Uva #carmine travels a lot and ultimately i think she gets a post as champion of unova a la cynthia or steven #where she's gone half the time because she's traveling and she also terrorizes children wandering around low level towns #drayton doesn't get to confirm she's from the future because the kid does it herself but he does try to get her to admit who's kid she is

EATING up Caelid with Godrick's axe. Gah dam.

#im on a wee ass low level character and #this shit is wild #i love how you can send enemies flying the same way he does in his bossfight #also you can drag it on the ground the same way he does. I LOVE THAT!!! #one of my fav moves of his. i always stand and look when he does it #and now i can do it too? biiiitch #people are sleeping on his remembrance weapons #i remember an ER streamer did a stream with his dragon weapon too and it was carrying the whole run #it is awesome #not only do they not suck but they are awesome and fun #try them if you haven't

i will never not love combining magic with computer shit like. anways imagine you open an illegally copied grimoire and dancing letters fly out to spell “THE CIRCLE OF ZYRTEC PROUDLY PRESENTS: VIAGRA THE WISE’S BOOK OF NECROMANCY VOLUME 1″ while groovy music plays. also there’s some letters circling your head that say “SPECIAL THANKS TO HIGH WIZARD LEXAPRO... YOU ROCK!!!“

#this leads to a small community of wizards showing off their magic expertise through visual shows using super low level magic known as #the demoscene named after the god Deimos who granted them the dark knowledge to compress a whole #'generate flying reflective spheres with raymarching' spell into 4 lines on a scroll

geezus crispy fucknuts. why is my neighborhood so ear-piercingly LOUD this afternoon?

I just wanna sit outside and enjoy the vibe while doing some work but ffs it is just so LOUD.

And these noises are jangling my insides far too much.

(grits teeth and waits for this latest episode of noise to stop)

#insanely loud helicopter flying too low too loudly too much toooooo much #obnoxiously loud people being loud in the middle of the day #while walking up my street #so many emergency vehicles with sirens blarring #siren-vehicle 1 then 2 then 3 then 4 then 5 like what the fuck is happening? #CAN YOU ALL DO IT MORE QUIETLY FOR FUCK SAKE #the level of decibels is literally vibrating my body in bad ways

[nomaishuttle]

omg also im soo mad i e been listening to rhis worldbuilding podcast at work and it was giving me lots of ideas but i had to turn it off bc i took like..an hour on a room bc i was so focused on jt and my beautiful world.. and i forgot all the ideas i had 😭😭 all i can remember is my fairy thing and that isnt even a from today thoufht

#bc bssicallyyy the way magic works is every living thing produces Some magic. like its legit produced by an organ in all lviing things. and #how Much you produce is like. it can be influenced by a lot of factors genetics etc but everybody produces some. so thats all well and good #and the fairies technically dont produce lke. more magic rhan humans yk. kts actually Very similar levels BUT bc theyre so small that amt #of magic is proportionally a LOT. thats why fairies glow is bc they have so much magic (magic glows and in humans who #have a lot of magic they also tend to glow around their chest :] omg and alsooo some of the ways magic can be channeled is likee. through #your hands or your voice theres rly so many basically. and its very versatile but its likee #so im stoll working on the rules for it but basically the idea of it is like. it can be used as a form of energy and also as temporary #form of matter if that makes sense ?? idk how to explain kt) #But anyways so the fairies theg r soo little but have sooo much magic proportionally. so fhey can ' #fly' with it (not rly flying rly its more like making little platforms to walk on in the air... this parts jnspired by kekkaishi cant even #lie to you i thjnk its awesome when they do that.) so ya #and technically a human could do the sane thing but the platform would be bigger and bearing more weight so it wouldnt rly be as like. #practical.. bc 1 human sized platform would be like..1000 fairy skzed platforms LOL. yk. but yeah so yeah #n then on occasion fairies are born with very low amts of magic (this happens with all creatures everybody Has magic but some ppl have so #little that rhey cant do much with jt) n these 'fairies' + #(theyre usually called something else but they r fairies. ive been calling them borrowers in my head but thats copyrighted skull) usually #cant live in fairy cities bc. well. fairy cities r very oriented around being able.to use magic to navigate them. so in antiquity the #borrower fairies would form sort of like. Underlayer cities where youd have the main fairy city up in the trees and then on the ground #would be the borrower city. but that started getting dangerous especially when tthe bigger ppl started expanding their territories and #stuff. so borrower fairies ended up forming Way more secretive communities either underground or like. oftentimes there will be entire #borrower communities in a house yk. and u see where my jnspo is comjng from yes i love the borrowers yes i watched arrietty a few weeks ago #but yeah :] the borrowers are wayyy more secretive bc they cant defend themselves against the big folk the way the magical fairies can yk. #so fairies are Known (though not often encountered bc of how defensive they are of their cities) #to humans but borrowers are WAYYY less frequently seen bc they go out.of their way not to. #theres ALSO. so. as mentioned magic is produced by an organ. normally if anything happens to that organ youre like. dead. yk. you cant rly #live without it. However fairies have figured out a way to majorly decrease your magic levels while keepjng you alive #like 50 percent kf the tjme it works the rest they just die. its a surgicql procedure basically and its Intensely guarded #as in 1-2 ppl know how to do it at any given time and if anybody else fjnds out theyre killed immediately. the only ppl who know it Exists #r like. theee highest ranking fairies in existence. its used as a punishment for the most 'heinous' crimes. aka the ones the fairy monarch #dislikes the most -_-. its not a Technical exile but like. yes it is..yk. since as i said you rly cant navigate a fairy city if you dont.

You wouldn't think a Poison/Flying Type Pokémon would be good at taking out early game Geodude and Onix but surprisingly you'd be wrong.

#zubat having absorb to compensate for leech life getting a buff indirectly gave zubat a good early game buff #oh you want to throw rock and ground types with low special defence at me? #ZUBAT TIME BINTCH #seriously my Zubat solo'd everything in Roark's gym except for the Cranidos #that said they don't learn a Poison Type move till level 15 or a Flying Type move until level *25* #zubat #pokemon bdsp #pokemon #pokemon brilliant diamond and shining pearl #pokemon brilliant diamond & shining pearl #pokemon brilliant diamond #pokemon shining pearl

oh god this game does not level scale

#ive stuck to the east and now im going west to take care of the other titans and i just slaughtered the flying one #bc its level is scaled very low #who would win. giant revered god bird. or toasted bread pupy #echoed voice #violet lb

[pegasusknightsonly]

sorry im not done "ingrid has really good charm growth and her personal ability increases the might of her gambits" yeah man! "so put her in a flier class which have the most restricted batallion access in the game particularly in part one, where you get pretty effectively bottlenecked in your classing choices due to the lack of flying batallions if you're not playing NG+ with multiple cleared save files" DO YOU EVEN LISTEN TO YOURSELF!!! COME ON!!!!!

if anything ingrids usefulness as a gambit bot is the #1 reason to never ever let her so much as look at a pegasus!!!!! come on!!!!!!!!

#hater moment #you get more flying batallions in part 2 obvs and if you are playing ng+ you'll have some spare low level ones #but absolutely no way is ingrid more deserving of one of your precious early low level flier batallions than petra. or hilda. or marianne #or hell even annette #all of whom are way more effective and do their niche thing A MILLION TIMES BETTER THAN INGRID DOES.

Me, newbie tank, selecting the levelling option from duty roulette: i'm going to get everybody killed :(

Me when the selected dungeon is Tam-Tara Deepcroft: I'M FAST AS FUCK BOI >:D

#the only downside of doing the low level dungeons is that i cannot wall to wall and kill everybody with one attack :( #you get 7 enemies on your tail and you will literally die without the healer intervening (shout out to healer tokki for keeping me alive <3 #me about to die to some stinky fly swarm: impossible #ffxiv #agnigames

wanderer can fly; you cannot. he makes it his problem.

“What? Giving up already?”

“Shut—” heaving, you barely have the energy to flip him off, “shut the fuck up. Fuck off.”

Wanderer chuckles, all low and mean, as if his entire purpose in life is to ridicule you. He continues ascending overhead, moving and looking like an angel, but the words that come out of his mouth are far from angelic. “Careful, now. I know you overestimate yourself, but I won’t save you if you continue to scale a mountain with one hand.”

“Stop agitating me on purpose then!” You nearly slip from the intensity of your yell, but thankfully, it isn’t your time yet.

“How can I? You’re cute when you’re mad.”

Grumbling, you focus back on the mountain. Cute when mad. He must think he’s goddamn adorable, then.

You’re starting to lose sight of dents or protruding surfaces to get a hold of, and the mountain is getting steeper. You curse under your breath. If only you had Geo or Dendro—that’d help a lot much more. Maybe even Anemo, but that would be admitting defeat to the man who’s currently watching you intently.

Wanderer scoffs when your breath hitches, the surface you’re holding onto crumbling. He descends until you’re eye level. “Idiot, I told you that it’d be safer if we didn’t climb this all the way.”

“I know my limit.” Maybe. You may or may not have gotten a little over-competitive and jumped a few times, but that shouldn’t be a problem.

“Not more than I do,” he says.

“Don’t say it like that, weirdo.” You appraise the mountain overhead and, with a sunken stomach, realize that he’s right. There’s still a long way to go, and it’s a long fall back.

“Damn,” you say. You turn to Wanderer and blink up at him with wide eyes, hoping he would take the hint without having to say it outright.

Wanderer sighs, holding out his arms. “Jump.”

“Are you serious?”

“I won’t let you fall—of course I’m fucking serious.”

You grit your teeth, wondering if it’s easier to humiliate yourself and jump into his arms or to let gravity do its work.

“Hey,” Wanderer says, gliding closer and hovering an arm behind your waist. “No stupid ideas. Just jump and hold onto me.”

It’s always unsettling when Wanderer is not acting all bratty, like you’re not quite sure if you should goad him back to being mean or watch him bristle when you point it out. It’s been happening too often recently. That must be saying something about him if his soft moments are scarier than his jabs.

Wordlessly, you reach out for his shoulder with one hand and hold back a yelp when the lack of balance causes you to slip. You hold on tight around his neck, eyes wide and heart jittery. Wanderer secures his arms, moving in one swift motion. Before you even know it, he has one arm on your back and the other under your knees.

“How convenient it must be to have a ride as your companion,” Wanderer mutters in amusement at your relieved face.

“Yeah. That’s why I keep you around,” you say as he glides upward, barely straining from your weight. He looks as unaffected as ever.

He looks as infuriatingly and devastatingly beautiful as ever.

“Ha,” his smile is all sharp, “and not because you have a little crush on me?”

“You follow me around because you do. Don’t get it twisted.”

He snorts, tipping on something a little more genuine. You wisely decide to stop ogling at his face and enjoy the view of the sky instead. The blue of his clothes and the shade of his eyes are much prettier, but you’d rather lose that than start squirming in his arms. Not when he’s carrying you bridal style and all.

Finally, he descends, hardly disturbing the grass with his grace. He sets you down, arms crossed, as you pat yourself off from dirt and stuff.

“Well?”

You eye him warily. “What do you want?”

“Some semblance of manners will do,” he says, then leans close as if he’s baring his face for you. He’s been less and less subtle recently, too.

Nonetheless, you find yourself smiling. The things he’d do just to get a kiss—it nearly makes you laugh out loud. But then he’d start getting all irritated like a cat, and you much prefer when he’s sweet like this. Sweet in his very Wanderer way, you mean.

You kiss him on the cheek. He puffs up like some proud peacock. He calls you adorable all the time, but he’s the one who’s acting like this. It’s no wonder you keep him around.
