#and i recognise he was hurting

[your-turn-to-role]

moment of appreciation again for what is possibly my favourite later game percy quote that everyone always forgets about

(said to vex, of course)

#another thing tlovm hasn't touched on yet that i hope they do (bc next season would be a great place for it) - #both percy and vex struggle so much with anger issues and holding grudges #and the reason they work so well together is because literally a few minutes before their first kiss #they make a commitment to helping each other learn how to forgive even when it's hard - because that's the only way to grow #percy had orthax and vex had saundor both who fed on those impulses and tried to turn them into their worst selves #and they both could very easily have fallen to that! but they don't want to. so they're going to keep each other on the right track #and this is really the pinnacle of it #percy being able to recognise when he really wants to hurt someone and going hmm nope vex seems to be objective here im gonna listen to vex #cr1 #c1e99 #percy de rolo #vex'ahlia #perc'ahlia #cr thoughts

two people too closed off to everyone met through their love for a game she was the first face he saw they fell in love both of them not being people of too many words never could tell each other to be with him she ruined her reputation they got separated due to circumstances had a child born out of love couldn't meet again due to people this time neither of them could raise their child not together nor alone a child who would grow up to feel next to nothing for them one spent her life succumbing to madness and illness the other living in guilt and loneliness... a tragedy if there ever was one

#shit hurts #shit fuckin hurts #i don't hate the old madam but i will never forgive her for lying to him #do you think he doesn't regret not realising it sooner why fengxian's deal fell through #she already was ill by that time but they could have had more time together 💔 #he literally was at no fault #fuck his loser father #no wonder he could never recognise you you stupid go stone #kusuriya no hitorigoto #the apothecary diaries #anime #lakan #fengxian #he's annoying yes but he's true to his heart yk #he just didn't know #knh text

decided I’m still in love with my TOA cat au. Eventually his kids agree to bring him home and take care of him on a schedule and his youngest (who got mysteriously claimed whilst Apollo was a cat) begged and begged to take him home. So the other kids eventually relented and he (loves Warrior cats so much) gave Apollo an honorary Warrior cats name. (Placeholder will be Rufflepaw / Ruffletail bc he’s a teenager cat! Actually no I feel like the teen awkwardness, self-awareness etc. given to Apollo as Lester when he got turned into a teen could correlate to Being A Scared Kitty.) WORSE THOUGHT: what if Apollo had the same identity crisis he did during the series but instead of “Lester” it was “Ruffletail”. How would that make you (me) feel (very upset). OK ACTUALLY INSTEAD, when Apollo completes his trials (?? WAIT. HOW WOULD HE DO THAT HE’S A CAT HANG ON.) and he publishes his book series about his trials he gently reads them to his (very excited) kids as a bedtime story. They all huddle around him (he is the nightlight and the radiator) as he reads and whenever Apollo reads out his identity crisis sections, every time he says his agreed-upon cat name his youngest yells “RUFFLETAIL!!” after it.

#apollo #toa #cat #toa cat au #dadpollo #HYPOTHETICALLY if I were to mirror the character arcs (as much as I could given. CAT) of the og TOA series AND TAKE THIS VERY SERIOUSLY #I would make the parts where Apollo is being cringe and obnoxious to try his hardest to make sure everyone “knows” he’s super selfish #Instead be him pretending to be over dramatic about being a cat. Generally being a nuisance and not cooperating (shitting in the sink). #but when he drops the 50 layers of denial he’s got going on he admits to himself how ABSOLUTELY TERRIFYING it is to be an Actual God #who is now a Cat. and how helpless he feels. I think people around him would realise this when he doesn’t manage to #fake being over dramatic well enough people recognise he’s actually very upset and possibly in pain. And are very gentle and quiet with him #(bc he’s literally just a scared shaking cat :((( bless him) #Him realising the consequences of his actions would come from him being much weaker -> knowing what feeling utterly helpless feels like. #Much of the tragedy would come from being unable to communicate or apollogise with people he’s hurt currently (more intense motivation to #Apologise and communicate when he’s a god) #BUT then again this is if you were to take this seriously I like it silly 💃🕺 #I also like that he’s just being rotated around various people’s houses over the summer and Suffering. #Poor baby but also he absolutely deserves it <33 he’s learning!!

Something something the spot’s goofy antics distract from how dangerous his own entitlement and resentment is

#I don’t want to be that guy but I feel a little bit like spot gets sanded down a tad into just the fact he’s funny #and he IS funny I get it. but what makes him scary is the power to lash out with his entitlement and resentment towards miles #it’s you did this TO ME (miles didn’t #he was busy getting pummeled by kingpin and then venom shocking him back and the building was being EVACUATED it’s literally no one’s fault #but spot’s that he was there AND miles didn’t even know he was there when the collider exploded) #so I’m owed the role that you made me into <- miles literally didn’t do this #I’m OWED being your nemesis because I created you <- when all of itsv is about its miles own choices that make him heroic and not the bite #spot can’t even take ownership of his own actions. he’s like oh IM not robbing you that’s the bank. well buddy I don’t see you robbing the #bank I see you harassing some guy owning a corner store #like I get it. ur a cosmic horror and it sucks capitalism is pushing u down and u can’t get a job but like OWN UP TO WHAT THE HELL YOU DO #LMAO #and even miles trying to genuinely reach out and say look I’m sorry I made u feel bad (even though this isn’t an owed apology) and spot #STILL is hellbent on breaking miles back for an imagined slight #I AM GOING TO KILL YOUR LITERAL FATHER BECAUSE I BLAME YOU FOR SOMETHING YOU DIDNT DO #like god lmao. he’s a fun silly villain but there’s legitimate anger and spite and RESENTMENT motivating him purely to try hurt miles back a #as* badly as he imagines miles hurt him. when it’s like dude. own tf up to who’s responsible here #I’m not angry at the spot btw I actually think he’s a fun villain but I think recognising that resentment is what makes him effective as a #*​frightening* villain and one that poses legitimate danger #tunes talks spiderverse #apologies xinakwans ik u said you didn’t want to read any spot posts hopefully this snags on ur filtered content block shdjfjfk

Another connection between Luis and Leon's relationship paralleling Ada and Leon's relationship. The fact that both Ada and Luis feel they have to mask their personalities around Leon and come across as less vulnerable and more put together than they actually are. throwing up

#Like if capcom didn't want us shipping Leon and Luis then WHY did they make Luis Ada's foil WHY did they make serennedy parallel aeon #resident evil #serennedy #resident evil 4 remake #And the fact that they've both missed the mark in that Leon prefers when people are vulnerable with him #and equally a mess as he feels he is. #And I KNOW Ada only masks around Leon to guard herself. Not because she wants Leon to like her more - she doesn't care about that #But she doesn't mask around Luis much at all which goes to show she feels more comfortable around him #they recognise each other as people who have hurt and are hurting and therefore they can be themselves around each other as friends #versus being around Leon feeling like they have to constantly perform #Luis learning how to act from Ada only to find out too late that it pushes Leon away even more (bc leon sucks) #sobbign

I know we don't talk and there's stuff we may not agree with. But I am truly sorry you've dealt with a lot of drama over fictional crap. And I'm sorry if my posts in the past ever contributed to that. Hope you have a better day.

Hey... That's all fine, don't worry! After all, it takes a lot of time and Insight to realise that Gehrman is a very gentle and respectful man and Godrick is an absolute gigachad kdkdkshdffhhgfds /lh /lh

But yeah, on a serious note. It was quite frustrating to find out the real motivation under all that... mess was something so pathetic, but at the same time this is what happens when people make engagement with media and fandoms a moral, political act. Not necessarily a problem, after all, I was the one who concluded that the way a fan judges fictional characters and other fans will very well reveal how cruel they are to real people who do something bad, or how much they will forgive based on personal sympathies. And my mad ravings about caring about female characters! I think the problem comes when a fan is so insecure that they have nothing else besides this defence of ideals through fandomry. If your only way to assert yourself is to be a good guy punishing the bad guys, and that mad raving loredigger discovers there is NO bad guy, what is left of you?

This is why it is crucial to have passion for nurturing rather than for undermining! I think if you speak like this, you've found this truth too? This is true that I don't know you very much (mutual-in-law thing), but to be honest.. you didn't poison my fandom experience at all? I tend to never be aware about discourse until someone basically calls me for help fhdhgsdgdfs Can't scout the fandom tag regularly!

But not only it actually was a quite long ago I saw a "negative" post from you, but also I've seen through the posts that my friends liked or reblogged from you that you've actually became very eager person to defend people's passion and interests! I think the post that particularly got stuck with me was when you resented seeing someone's light die after some Redditor asshole "well aktualy"'d a thing they were excited about creating (not exact wording but maybe you remember too)? Like... you are fine, man. At that point I realised that you were a good fan and in the end valued people's creativity and passion over personal preferences. That you never wanted to be THAT guy, even if your interpretation could not be further from someone else's. Coming to terms with what actually matters in fandomry is very mature and I am happy to see this attitude!

I am still glad that you messaged me about this though; I did not expect this, but thank you! I think I will continue getting involved in fictional discourse because my autistic senses cannot ignore factually incorrect takes with a clear insidious motive, and.. eh, sooner or later, I'll piss off the wrong guy again. Don't feel bad for me when it inevitably happens :p I've accepted the shortcomings when I decided to be the debate guy. Simply laughing at some gremlin starting a discourse with the girls in DMs and not stressing over it is only funny until I realise that newer fans could get misinformed right off the bat.

#ask replies #fandomry rambles #sorry this is probably a bit too long and emotional #this topic just makes me remember a lot of stuff.. it is not you! like I mean it my impression has been positive for a while now #I could already sense that you've changed your stance on things before this message and I respect this a lot! #I am just thinking about..... stuff #how there was an actually strongly furious gehrman hater who finally matured and became chill after two years of terrorizing fandom #and I even wrote them a DM saying how much I respected the change.. only to lose them forever a couple of weeks later because of timing LOL #or story of the guy that got driven away from the fandom with fake accusations and slander because he criticised maria when her toxic fans- #-back then were not pretending to 'recognise her flaws too' #or people talking to me how they stopped feeling safe posting in fandom over that crap #like... you did not really hurt me. I knew you had strong opinions but I've noticed more and more based posts on the fandomry topic #there are just many things that make whole fandom situation sad. I am happy to be the part of what helped BB fandom a bit #but I've heard some shit going on in ER fandom and like... yeah I am bound to get into trouble again because I can't sit back and meme #just don't feel bad for me when I end up with another arch enemy because of my autism about lore fhshdffsd

thinking about the way that lingering after her leap of faith , kneeling with her hand outstretched for mono , was more of a reflexive impulse than a conscious choice . dimly six had recognised that she needed to catch her friend and help him , the way she had countless times before this . he'd jumped , and her hand had curled tightly around his . starved fingers snug and secure around his .

her heart was pounding so hard , it seemed to be physically hurting her chest . there was a dull ache burning there anyway - one that was burning more powerfully with every passing second . six's breaths were leaving her in short , sharp pants as she kneeled at the edge of this tremendous drop , gazing at the ground , unable to meet mono's gaze for a tremulous minute .

her music box . her recollection is hazy , the memories are not entirely clear . but she remembers the way mono brought down the hammer on it so brutally . the way it's comforting tune warbled brokenly , and finally stopped short altogether as the metal buckled under his weapon's impact .

every strike against it had wracked her with agony . unbeknownst to her , it had broken a beautiful spell ... a gentle trance that had finally pulled her out of this wretched world and allowed her to know comfort again , however false it might have been .

it could have been so perfect . he could have stayed with her . she wanted him to hear the gentle chimes too . there's another memory of moving closer to him when he arrived , joy surging through her at the familiar call of his voice . a recollection of showing him her treasured silver trinket , trusting him . they could have been safe there . they could have been happy . why did he ruin it ?

how could he smash it to pieces even as she had screamed for him to stop it !

her grasp had inadvertently loosened and her expression had contorted with hatred as she stewed on all that had unfolded . the little cry that mono let out shook her from the miserable flashback , and she musters the will to meet his eye at long last .

he has the audacity to look hopeful , beneath his anxiety . then - to look progressively confused . like he doesn't know what he did to her . blood boiling , eyes frenzied , a lump in her throat rapidly forming , she'd let her gaze bore into him .

his voice sounds faraway as he scrapes out a shaky plea . his fingernails are cutting stark red crescents into her hand as he desperately clutches her . it hurts . he hurts .

he's always been the one that hurts . there's no more bag to hide behind , and ... he looks just like ... !

revulsion . hate . terror . betrayal . heartbreak . the movement had to be swift and decisive - a girl hell bent on surviving this , on putting as much distance between herself and this boy as possible . she wrenched her hand free from his grip , shook him off . let him plummet .

then she rose to her feet , ignoring his deafening scream .

six dusted herself off , took a shaky breath as she turned on her heel . and she left him to his fate . didn't so much as glance back . hot , angry , miserable tears pricked at her eyes . she blinked them away .

#mono knew he was helping... but six thought he was hurting #she thought he spoiled something that she was never going to have in her hold again #something that she wanted to /share/ with him #she didn't know she was twisted and contorted... she didn't know she was a monster #the music box kept the pain of how badly she was mangled dampened- and it made her feel comforted #it was sheer escapism in a trinket... and mono breaking it forced her to feel the agony of being a monster #and she didn't /understand/ #and then while she was looking at him as he dangled... i fear she recognised someone in his face 💀 #this isn't perfect but oh my godddd #SEE!! i love her TOO!! #hers is LONGER!! she's the more complex one to ME!! #she doesn't have tags yet but let's ignore that... #look how the canary has flown it's cage . / six headcanons

season 4 special spoilers

"oh yeah because normally you just RUSH to my rescue"

It goes without saying that this seems harsh and it is. On first glance, it seems like wukong is undermining everything Macaque has done for him but I don't think that's what wukong meant by it. I think he was referring to the fallout of the war against Heaven.

Let me explain. Wukong was the only one captured by heaven meaning the others including Macaque would have retreated without him leaving him at the mercy of heaven. We know they don't partially care about 'mortal' life (yes wukong is very immortal I mean from the mortal plain aka not a god). and keep in mind that wukong doesn't know he is imvisable from his perspective his closest friends, family even, just left him for dead. Something that he is terrified of to the point of paranoia (which is understandable, I would be too if I was kidnapped in my sleep and taken to the underworld).

Sure he may hope they come back for him but if he does that just makes it even sadder because well they don't. and it's not like they didn't have any time to either. for one, I really doubt that wukong was taken off the battlefield and straight to execution. I'm sure would have been a few heavenly days in a prison cell even if just to give them time to set up the execution but like also there is no way I don't see heaven torturing him for either information or just daring to fight against them. plenty of time to stage a rescue. even if he was taken straight to the execution bloke it still would have taken a few minutes if not more to get there. since each heavenly day is a mortal year that would probably translate to weeks. so there is no way that the Brotherhood didn't have time at least try and save wukong. Macaque specifically could have probably done it even without the support of the rest of the brotherhood. he can just shadow portal either wukong out or himself in to free wukong. we see that Macaque can do this in season 4 so we know he can portal there he just doesn't.

Even if there was a spell preventing shadow portal-ing on the holding cell the brazier of 8 trigrams would not have this security feature since it normally wasn't used for executions. This means that it theoretically should have been easy for Macaque to get Wukong especially given that Wukong was in there for 49 mortal years and especially especially since wukong was probably calling for him or at least screaming. which Macaque could probably hear given his abilities (which are proven to exist in the show). Furthermore, the brazer was probably left unguarded after a few days or so it should have been a piece of cake.

Then there is havoc in heaven. which would have been the biggest slap in the face for Wukong because none of the Brotherhood would really need to do anything but show up. Wukong almost defeated Heaven single-handedly. The only thing that the brotherhood would need to do is stop Wukong from making the bet with Buddha and they would have won and completed their goal. They were so close but no none of the brotherhood came to support Wukong in the battle. it's not like no one knew of battle as demons repetitively bring it up in jttw. and again there would have been time. Most battles last hours if not a full day which means there would have been months for the Brotherhood to prepare and join but they didn't. Even if it wasn't well known what was happening at the time Macaque with his good ears should have been able to tell. I know that Azure, Yellow Tusk, Peng, and DBK probably wouldn't want to go fight heaven to defend Wukong but Wukong wouldn't have needed them. even if it was just Macaque. If he had shown up before the bet they would have won.

This would be very upsetting. traumatizing even because he was abandoned and left for dead. terrifying because he thought he was going to die. Frustrating because he was right there. Sure there could be a valid reason why Macaque didn't help Wukong but we don't know it, Wukong probably doesn't know it. From Wukong's perspective, Macaque just left him to be tortured and killed only to return once he lost everything to give him one 'whole peach' as an apology while saying "You know I'd help if I could" despite there being multiple times that he could have helped. Which triggered the line of Macaque not 'rushing' to his aid. After the facts are laid out from Wukong's perspective you can kinda see where Wukong is coming from and why would lash out so badly. The reasons why Macaque's got the wrong approach are better explained in the post if you're interested.

I like to finish by saying I'm in no way saying that what happened was completely Macaque's fault nor I am saying that Wukong had the right to treat him so harshly. all I'm saying is that it is understandable for Wukong to act like this given what he went through, his words are not completely unfounded, Macaque and Wukong both shoulder the blame for this, and Wukong needs therapy yesterday. chop chop people/j

#lego monkie kid #season 4 special spoilars #sun wukong #the six eared macaque #analysis #Macaque needed to be far more patient with Wukong #honestly it doesn't take a genieus to see that he is hurting #and as his 'best firend' it should have been really ovous #I think present-day Macaque pick up on it and that's why he was open to recognising #don't know why past Macaque couldn't maybe he was angry at Wukong for 'leaving' him or he was persuaded by Azure peng and yellow tusk #when they are talking shit about him #also not sure if this is intentional or just but wukong sounds different in this scene for some reason #My hc till proven wrong is it's because of the smoke but it could just that his VA was getting sick or something

no but thinking of violante's manic state following her murder of ruven and that sick game of association-replacement played by gortash where he acts just like ruven did, picks up some of his behaviours and mannerisms and speech patterns he specifically used with violante and that he knows of well bc he observed and studied them interact, so that he can fill up the now empty spot left by ruven's death.

#rena.txt #LIKE THE LAYERS. vio is visibly not. alright. it's all about 'i'm alone without him' so he plays a role. takes advantage of the weakness so #to devote her to him like she was devoted to ruven. vio could've killed for ruven and now more than ever she's a powerful asset to have on #your side. plus she showed she can and will kill. she took out the only person she cared for (in their twisted ways) in the world so she's #useful but dangerous. a double edged blade. no better moment than now that vio is so unstable and lacks purpose and a sense of community #to lure her on his side for his future plans. there's smth about the manipulation in it that makes me lose it like #i know this is what you desperately need rn and i know you know you will never have it back so what if i showed you i can be that thing #you're missing? that sense of loneliness is what he's pressing on the most. and the loss too. and vio notices ofc she recognises when he #speaks or acts in a certain way. she's aware but willingly letting his plan work bc god. she does miss ruven so sickly much and the comfort #in a lie is preferable to what's going on in her mind in that moment. #there's exploitation and there's a lil touch of loneliness on his side too and it's bitter to pretend to be someone else to convince her to #stay but he won't ever admit it. genuinely think that if vio didn't leave without saying a word his plan would've worked. she'd willingly #pretend he could replace ruven. it would hurt less probably #that devotion that could lead her to do great horrors...both her weakness and strength ��� the illusion of free choice 👍 #it's past 3am if i could elaborate better i would but i feel like i'm having visions at this point.hit me with a giant hammer so i can slee #i 🫶 toxicity in my characters dynamics btw
