Anyway, just thought there might be others like me for who mass panic reactions are very anxiety-inducing, and who'd need to hear it:

This goes on for several more minutes before they’re dragged away from each other by their respective team mates. (click for better quality)

sort of a sequel to this but it can be read on it’s own

I need to talk about Adam Taurus and James Ironwood, and why they are good characters deserving of apreciation.

You see, as much as it's true that a lot of fans of their are crazy stans who see them as men who did no wrong, I don't think it's fair to get mad and attack all the people who enjoy their characters. I do enjoy them for example.

Yes, they are terrible people, but that's what makes them good characters! I love them for playing their role well, not because I condone their actions or think they are in the right!

Let's take Adam for example. I hate him as a person, while watching the show i wanted to beat the shit out of him, and that's precisely why I love his character! He gave me emotions, and played his villain role in Blake and Yang's story arcs masterfully! It's partially thanks to him and the way he played his role that their relationship got to shine this way! He is part of why I love bumbleby so much, and I can't just ignore that.

He's the victim that turned into a monster (even if we find out specifically about that very far in his story), the wronged person who took that in the worst possible way (the fact that you got influcted pain doesn't give you the right to inflict it to others). A boy who had no control over his life that decided to get revenge and control everybody else instead. It's tragic when you think about it this way, and I love that!

Or, even more clearly, Ironwood. From the beginning we see good intentions and terrible actions, that later on, under so much stress and pressure and ptsd, just made him go down. All of his faults come from a place of untrust toward others and the idea that only he could know the best course of actions, never taking into account other people and ideas. This obsession and hero complex is what leads to his and Atlas' fall and, again, even if I really wanted to bash his head for all the stupid things he did (or wanted to do), I still loved watching him play this part and fall deeper down every episode. Again, it's sad and tragic and I love it!

This isn't meant to be a full blown analysis of the characters, but I just wanted to point out that it's unfair to be authomatically hostile towards anyone who likes their characters. I understand that so many of them are people defending their actions, and it is very frustrating (and sometimes worrying) when very clear evil actions get misinterpreted or justified by someone, but it's not like everyone is like this.

They are characters, vessels to tell a story, and people aren't just allowed to enjoy a well played part, but it's actually good being able to apreciate the executions and characterization of villains! Both understanding their roles on a "technical" level, but also understanding their characterization and why they do what they do.

I love when it makes all sense, when I completely see how a character is reasoning and it's consistent with everything else around them! It's part of what I enjoy in stories, and the fact that I do have a good time watching, analyzing and understanding them, doesn't mean I am condoning their actions. Understanding and justifying are two very different things.

So, take this post as a little show of love and apreciation for Adam Taurus and James Ironwood: you are two assholes, but you are so good at that, entertaining and you played your roles well; thank you for your service in the story!

#rwby #adam taurus #james ironwood #please do not start dumb useless discourse #I'm just here to remind people that liking characters is not the same as liking a person #i judge a person from their actions #i judge a character for their consistency and role in the story #people need to remember the differences between reality and fiction #also for the record #i am not saying you HAVE TO like them either #i personally enjoy villains and to see their roles #you might not #and that's fine!

"adora doesn't want me, not the way i want her" could very easily have gone a direction where c*tra finally, finally realised that the universe did not revolve around her and decided to save adora not for the sake of the relationship she wanted but for the sake of adora's value as an individual and it will never not suck that none of that happens because at that point in s5 getting c*tra to make out with the increasingly tenuous cardboard cutout that had once been an engaging main character was all anyone was allowed to aim for

#spopcrit #also for the record #a c*tra with self-awareness would have then realised that she dodged a fucking bullet #'she doesn't want me the way i want her: as a vacant shell that exists solely to make me feel better' #'wait i would hate it if anyone treated me like that' #ABILITY UNLOCKED: BASIC THEORY OF MIND

Anyone else think q! foolish and q! charlie should team up.

Like. Listen man.

They are the two people on the island that constantly get treated as a joke. They never get treated seriously, even in a moment where they are in clear distress.

Foolish comes back from being stuck in the nether? Everyone was already planning his funeral and laughed that he was stuck. The only two people who weren’t joking about were q! roier and q! philza.

Charlie has been mourning his daughter for months now and obviously has terrible coping mechanisms (gegg, drinking excessively)? Thats just silly ol charlie! I don’t know if i have ever seen him or his problems be taken seriously in game.

And they’re both eventually going to reach a point in which they can’t take being the joke anymore.

So i think they should team up.

Or better yet, Vegetta & Foolish, Mariana & Charlie team up bc i think that would be even more interesting. (Idk how clear i made it but im saying both couples should team up basically. To do what idk but. Itd be interesting.)

You could have used "Laugh with me" to keep Jack still and plug his nose. Then, ask if he could breathe. When he said "No," say, "You wouldn't be able to breathe through trapped airways if you weren't in reality." That's one way you could have done it.

.. shh. I wasn’t thinking that much

Q1: How long does your art usually take? like usually?

Q2: What are your headcanons for Nori? you seem to like her!

1. For pieces like my V and Lizzy piece, up to about 5-8 hours. For storyboards I can board 1 minute a week usually.

2. Im about to show my delulu side I hope you’re ready-

My interpretation for Nori is mostly derived from my redesign of her. In my head she’s like if Jinx from arcane was a smidge more well adjusted while being possessed by an eldritch horror. Probably would laugh in the face of death too. At first she started off as a sassy chick with a taste for mischief but then deteriorated into a paranoid mess.

Idk why I got so attached to her considering she is bordering on nonexistent in the show. I think I just like present mother figures who are fun and weird. Don’t read into that. I see you over there.

I just thought “YO WOULDN’T it be nice if Uzi’s mom was NOT dead and was in her life.”

But then a friend of mine mentioned how if Nori’s psyche is deteriorated by the Solver then she probably wouldn’t be able to fulfill a motherly role properly anyways. Which. Hurts me. Im choosing to not look at that 💜💜💜

Reasons why I had to put the duel from chapter 4 of the WIP into a separate, new chapter, exhibit A: This is the duel, now in chapter 5. Just the duel. I didn't even add any of the other stuff that's supposed to happen in this chapter yet.

#yugioh 5ds #also for the record #turn-wise this is by far not the longest duel I've written #it's actually one of the shortest ones #and it's not over-bloated with plot either #between all the dialogue the cardplay the descriptions and what plot stuff was absolutely necessary #this just gained a life of its own though #which. basically happens every time I script a duel #the longer I write 5ds fic the less surprised I am how many canon duels had to be stretched across multiple episodes #this shit takes AGES #anyway #fic writing updates #current wip #orchid rambles
