#TTK

[radioactive-earthshine]

Kon really in an OP Super when you really think about it and the potential he has.

Not only does he have all the classic solar powered Kryptonian abilities Clark enjoys, but he also has his tactile telekinesis.

While some people mock the TTK, it is important to recognize that this ability is independent of his solar powered abilities - it makes him essentially a meta-Kryptonian.

Some highlights of his TTK include that its limits are (currently) unknown, but we do know that its range does expand over the entire area of L.A.

Superboy #84

Kon was able to in a moment of frustrated rage dissect 'every gun' in Los Angeles, even toy guns, instantaneously.

As Kon gets older his TTK's range and intensity is shown to increase to behave less like 'tactile' telekinesis and more like 'regular' telekinesis where he no longer needs to particularly be in any sort of contact to rip something/someone to shreds.

I'm excited that the comics are starting to play around with this ability again by giving us new ways for him to use it.

Theres a specific feeling to being introduced or finding something that becomes your hyperfixation but the community for it is either too old to be posting about it or too small.

So now I get to sit here and suffer while hyperfixating on THIS stupid silly little manwolf

and THESE cringe-fail trolls!

And everyone who follows my account will have to suffer seeing them and me talking about The 10th Kingdom because this is my account and I do what I want!

#the 10th kingdom my beloved #the 10th kingdom #the tenth kingdom #ttk #ttk Wolf #the 10th kingdom Wolf #Troll siblings my beloved #look at them go with that silly jukebox and their many shoes!

Kon can fly in whatever position he wants. He would absolutely fly in a T-pose straight through a brick wall. Peak psychological warfare against bank robbers and other criminals.

The Continuing Adventures of a D2 Player in D1

I am partway through the Taken King expansion now! I have comitted Regicide, explored the Dreadnaught, and even bribed Shaxx to make me a sword. And I have more thoughts about it!

The Bad

Killing Oryx was... kind of anticlimactic tbh? I know the real death is in the raid, but it genuinely felt like just one more mission. There's no real feeling of completion like there is in D2's DLCs, at least partly because D1 is very sparse on cut scenes and character interactions. It feels like you kill Oryx and no-one gives a damn because there's so few character moments to round it off. 'Oh, killed a Hive god? Must be Tuesday.'

The trend of not explaining anything continues. Several of TTK missions leading up to killing Oryx involve Eris shouting at us repeatedly that 'you must become ascendant to follow Oryx!'. No, she will not be explaining what it means to be Ascendant or why it is so important (I mean, I know because it's been nearly 10 years and I have read the lore, but if I hadn't it would be utterly baffling)

There are these patrols you can randomly get where you pick up a mysterious signal. They have several steps and require you to do random things to progress them - the patrol text is (deliberately) glitched and resolves as you get closer. For example, I had one where one of the steps was to do an emote, another step was to kill hobgoblins etc. I love this idea, do not get me wrong! I like the idea of picking up this random signal. But as far as I can tell, these patrols don't lead anywhere. At the end, Ghost says 'At least we know what the message says, even if we don't know who its from'. AND THEN NEVER TELLS YOU WHAT THE MESSAGE SAYS. I have to wonder if this was something that was meant to lead to content that got cut, or was a hook left that could be used for something in future. Possibly something to do with the Nine would have worked, given the random nature of the messages.

*sob* Getting good armour is such a pain. And confusing.

The jump down to the area with the first secret chest in VoG is *horrendous* especially since you can't mantle. There's no ledge to jump from opposie the entrance. (I have not run the whole D1 VoG, but you can break in by doing certain things without having to do the plates).

Who the hell decided that the destination material for Mars, a planet which is predominantly a red-brown colour, should be a RED-BROWN ROCK?!

The Good

One of the missions in the lead up to killing Oryx involves you having to stealth through Crota's End raid area to steal a piece of his soul. The enemies have a red ring around them you need to avoid or you'll be seen. It's actually pretty cool! very atmospheric too, and nice to have a mission which isn't about brute forcing your way through enemies. I think the stealth system would need some tweaking to make it genuinely fun for more than a one-off thing, but it was a nice change of pace!

The Dreadnaught is a really awesome patrol area. It feels huge, there are lots of nooks and crannies to explore, hidden bridges you need Ghost to see, tunnels to crawl through. Plenty of secrets. Gloriously creepy. I am not even close to finishing exploring (at least partly because I keep getting lost - my sense of direction is garbage in games)

There are different Vanguard Strike playlists available: Legacy, Taken King, and SIVA crisis. Vanguard strikes are different depending on where you are in the story!!! I did not know this going in. There's one strike I've done a few times on the Legacy playlist, where a Fallen Archon escapes from the Prison of Elders. I got it yesterday on the Taken King playlist. Starts out the same, then partway through you go into a cave system. Previously, those caves have involved fighting Vex. Went in last night and it's full of Taken! That was a shock. And progressing, the rest of the strike is full of blights and when you reach the Archon fight, the Archon has been taken! It was a really cool thing to experience, especially going in without knowing beforehand. Doing something I thought I was familiar with and having it change up on me was great. Similarly, the Omnigul strike (the one the Disgraced strike is based off). The dialogue has changed up to kind of move the timeline and have it set after Oryx's fall, and the first room, which has previously contained only Eliksni... now you get ambushed by Hive too! I really love the idea of Vanguard strikes evolving with the storyline - it makes them feel more connected to the world state. I know we've had updates for Lake of Shadows and Arms Dealer in a similar way, but god i would love more!

The vault is split into sections so you can see just your armour, just your weapons, just your other assorted junk, instead of one 600 space mess.

I am getting so much practice using Golden Gun. In D2 I have used Blade Barrage almost exclusively, but since starting D1, where Blade Barrage does not exist, I've started using Deadshot in D2 as well and I'm having fun with it! I even got into a crucible match in D2 and got several golden gun kills which was nice!

I'm more willing now to use supers in D2 instead of always saving them for the boss XD It is a space magic game and I should use the space magic more.

Other Thoughts

I cannot decide how I feel about the currencies+destination materials On the one hand, I am constantly running out of glimmer. It's much more scarce and hard to get and the amount you can carry is much much lower (25K I believe) and you need it for levelling up weapons and armour just to get the perks. Collecting destination materials is necessary and can be kind of a slog (also you need different Ghost Shells to get the trackers for different materials). I know getting the exotic swords later is gonna be painful because you need to get a material that has a low drop rate. Legendary Marks are random drops from doing activities too, and you need them to buy any legendary gear. You can hold 200 of them at a time, and some of the stuff costs 175 Marks. On the other hand, it makes acquiring weapons and armour something a bit more special and valuable. In D2 I can just go to Banshee and buy whatever I want, and make that glimmer back in approximately ten seconds on any destination. I currently have max engrams with all the seasonal vendors, and a whole lot with the ritual vendors and I decode them just to junk whatever comes up a lot of the time. Destination materials... exist. And have no real use. I feel like the ease of acquiring weapons in D2 means I don't appreciate them. And I don't branch out and try new weapons much. I junk the majority of the random drops I get without even bothering to look. In D1 I end up trying out pretty much any purple weapon that comes my way because I don't have that many to choose from. Needing to acquire destination materials means that I spend more time exploring and poking into places I wouldn't normally bother to in D2. Will that side room on the dreadnaught have Hadium flakes for me? IDK, better check it out because I need them! So my rate of play feels more leisurely - wandering a patrol zone without any real purpose feels more rewarding, even when I'm returning to places like the Cosmodrome. So yeah, conflicted about this. We'll see how I feel later on when I have played many more hours of D1

y'know, I would love it if they brought the Dreadnaught back as a destination, maybe for Episode Heresy (the Hive one) after Final Shape. But not the Dreadnaught as it is in D1 - the Dreadnaught after 10 years of being derelict, picked over by scavengers, fought over by different Hive factions, slowly rotting after the death of its master. I think there's a lot that could be done with it - new Hive cults forming in the depths? Taken monstrosities? Some of the descriptions of areas on the Dreadnaught also talk about how Oryx kept specimens from conquered/destroyed species there, and tortured and experimented on them. Ghost at one point comments that there are things even the Hive fear and have yet to be able to weaponise. So... what else is still trapped on the Dreadnaught?

Shaxx has a line when you bring him Oryx's sword Shaxx: That sword shard you carry... is that the dreaded Willbreaker, Sword of Oryx? I have not seen such a blade in many years, Guardians.' I know it doubtless means 'hey, I was on the moon during the Great Disaster. I saw some shit', but the way it's phrased is so specific that it's a great jumping off point for fic ideas XD

Sam and Tory are Daniel and Johnny parallels and I don't know how I'm realizing this now, five seasons in. The information I hold makes me want to scrunch it up into a ball and punch it into a wall because,, PARALLELS!!

The rich kid who has everything versus the one with a temper who's barely scraping by!! The petty fights over a significant other!! Getting underneath each other's skins!! Being only able to ever think about the other!! Hurting each other physically and emotionally!! Seeing each other getting hurt and feeling bad about it!!! Forever rivals and soulmates!!

While it's interchangeable in the SamTory dynamic on who is LaRusso and who is Lawrence, the parallels are still there and I have so, so, so many feelings about these four.

I need,, like a thing of Sam listening to her Dad rant about Johnny (or the other way around) and then she just,, comes to the realization that she's the SAME with Tory. Then that realization just then leads to the realization of, "Oh my god, if I don't fix this, we'll end up like my dad and Mr. Lawrence." And THEN she can have the realization of, "Am I in love with Tory??" Followed with, "Is my Dad in love with Mr. Lawrence??" (or vice versa).

Idk,, I think it would be funny and also I love these four so, so much. So many thoughts about them,, man,,,

#seriously all their problems could be solved if they just like #talked #and then maybe got forehead kisses #i digress #tell me i'm not the only one who sees the parallels #lawrusso #samtory #daniel larusso #johnny lawrence #samantha larusso #tory nichols #cobrai kai #ttk

Superman (2023) #7

Holy shit. Holy SHIT. New possible villain with TTK and delving into new secrets involving Kon's creation. I am extremely excited for this story to unfold.

I am also excited to see TTK once again being utilized to its full potential, and it being explored because what IS the full potential? We have seen some terrifying glimpses in the past and I definitely am eager to see more.

anyway those thoughts came from other telekinesis thoughts

specifically, I keep thinking about tactile telekinesis, where you can move anything you're touching. or, if your range is better, anything that's touching anything you're touching. So basically, it can't be airborn

which means it would move a lot differently than the usual perception of what telekinesis looks like. You think 'telekinesis' and your first mental image is probably an object floating up into the air

but for tactile telekinesis, no floating allowed.

so if you for example have just finished a shower and want to bring yourself your towel, it doesn't lift off the hook and float over. No, it slides or rolls across the wall. Maybe you make it do a little dance if you feel like being silly, or twist it up and make it inchworm its way to you

which is where the thought of using ttk for stop motion animation came from

One of the many things I dislike about Conner in the Young Justice tv show is that theirs no tactile telekinesis, like

Kon bringing up his Tactile Telekinesis is a running joke of the Young Justice Comics and I'd like to have at least seen TTK in the show

#kon el #superboy #conner kent #young justice #young justice tv show #young justice 1998 #robin #tim drake #cassie sandsmark #wonder girl #slobo #supercycle #like the supercycle is more like its comic counterpart than Conner a main character of both the show and comic #comics #dc comics #tactile telekinesis #ttk #my boy was BUTCHERED #i guess maybe for some reason they didnt want Conner to have Superman's powers and in the beginning kon used ttk to simulate that? #but still thats stupid. we could have had a arc about him embracing that hes not Superman and using his ttk to its fullest and not just to #simulate what he was designed to be. ttk is terrifying if you think about it. anything that kon touches he controls hypothetically he could #lock you out of your body or crush you with a brush of his hand or set a bone in second or take bullets out of bodies. it could be awesome #batcavescolony reads comics

Connor Kent for the unpopular opinion thing?

So reminder this is the reverse unpopular opinion thing:D just for those who didn't see the post going around

Anyway I recently read Kon's first appearance and he is iconic. I feel like ppl know him mostly from young justice, either the animated series or the comic, but he's actually just so funny in The Return of Superman. I mean both in that he makes jokes and cracks one liners that actually made me laugh, but also he's so funky. Like he has this cool hair and swagger and he's got an agent and they've copyrighted the name Superman bc the actual Superman is dead. But he's also he's just a kid who genuinely wants to help and doesn't even know what his own powerset is yet!

Also his OG power, TTK, is so fucking cool. I get why they gave him the Superman powerset eventually too but I think it would've been super interesting if they'd kept TTK and TTK alone, like, nobody else has this and also who the fuck came up with it it's such a creative power concept!! Obviously the fanfiction potential has been explored in detail and everyone should continue to do so good job, but I feel like giving him actual flight as opposed to "I'm technically touching myself therefore I can make myself fly" flight is a bit of a miss, the second one is just objectively funnier and also, like I said, entirely unique.

Finally I think he should get a boyfriend who isn't Tim. DON'T GET ME WRONG I SHIP TIMKON I HAVE EYES, but Tim got to explore his sexuality with a different character for a reason and I feel like, besides DC's cowardice, it's at least partially because it would be a bad story and character move to have him realize he's bi because of Kon this late in the game. Introducing Bernard neutralizes the charge, so to speak, makes it so the story stands on its own. Now I don't want Kon to have a coming out narrative at all - I want Kon to just show up with his new boyfriend, someone his own age (ahem), have fun with him for a few issues, introduce him to his friends, and then they break up. It leaves Tim and Kon on neutral grounds for a future relationship where they don't have unreasonable pressure to be each other's perfect first boyfriend - either from within the narrative or from without.

Also yes timkon should be endgame, obviously. This isn't an unpopular opinion again this is just having eyes. But it needed to be said.
