Because you seem in the know: there's a new Trigun?????

(is it any good? I loved the original)

Aha, I'm less in the know than you think!! But I can assure you there IS a new trigun, trigun stampede, a reboot which seems to have different takes on some of the characters and themes!! I've not seen it yet and don't plan to for a while (I'm trying very hard to be kind to my brain and at least let the og settle in my head as I read the manga), but what I've heard sounds super cool!!

#in honesty i find the art style a little offputting (it's 3d and i'm sure i'd get used to it given the chance #but rn it feels like looking at a video game)#and i've heard mixed reviews on the character portrayals-- mainly that everyone seems younger and ww is edgier?#my main problem is they REMOVED MILLY #and replaced her with SOME GUY #WHAT COULD POSSIBLY JUSTIFY THAT. HUH #ahem. anyway. from the analysis posts i've been shamelessly reading it has some REALLY cool takes on gendered trauma #and places a new spin on the lore and vash and knives' relationship which all sounds incredible #and yeah overall reviews seem very positive!!#i'd totally encourage you to take a stab at it if you please (and maybe let me know what you think if you do!!) :))#asks #thetragicallynerdy #kay talks #oh god PLEASE don't let this maintag i'm pretty sure there's enough filler tags at the front #trigun #tristamp #oh wait addition!! i did scrub through tristamp ep1 just to see what it was like and it was very different from what i was expecting #my main takeaway (gleaned all from analysis posts) is that if i'd watched tristamp first i'd be ALL FUCKING OVER IT #but since being a bitchy purist is one of my favorite things to do i might not like it as much just in comparison #it really does sound like a good story though!!!!

actually lol the story playing out as it does but after Annabeth reunites with Percy, he looks behind her and is very quickly, "where's grover"

cue depression that some other satyr is joining them on this quest instead of Grover, who obviously decided not to come get Percy himself because he hates him

("percy, he doesn't hate you, he's just busy preparing trying to keep Gaea down with all the other nature spirits")

("HE HATES ME")

#percy jackson #grover underwood #annabeth chase #happy talks pjo #back on my grover is percy's FP bullshit lol #everyone at camp jupiter is just like “the fuck is happening” bc what.#piper is in the background thinking “this is the guy annabeth talked up for so long? the guy who's trying to bury himself in the ground rn?#jason is lowkey offended they replaced him with someone so emotional (but also confused bc he thought neptune's kids didn't have emotions?)#hazel and frank are not surprised because percy remembered grover at some point during the quest #and had a nearly devastating meltdown at the concept that he could ever forget him #and also was super distressed he couldn't contact grover through their empathy link #they spent three hours trying to reassure him everything would be fine and its not his fault! it's juno's! and her magic! so relax! plz!

allison chronic divorcee until renee confesses and they live happily ever after but this trope is not for the angst...its for the idea of putting the foxes in multiple weddings just andreil watching allison walk down the aisle and going "five months" "i say three" and renee being the only one who's super upset over these weddings but doesn't realize she has a chance (she's the only one who has a chance)

K but the fact that Kristen is just a regular human being. Just a standard, average person in a land filled with mystical beings and magic spilling from every crack, nook and cranny.

And here's Kristen Applebees, the first born child of typical suburban parents, born into a religious neighborhood where everyone goes to church every Sunday and prays every night and everyone has a white picket fence with a perfect manicured lawn and not-so-subtly shuns those who are in anyway different from them.

Was Kristen not chosen by her God, by Helio himself, because of her perfect average parents with their perfect average house in their perfect average neighborhood?

Kristen wasn't rich, she didn't have a powerful bloodline, her parents weren't important, there was no prophecy foretelling her birth. No, Kristen was an attainable goal. Kristen was a good example for the youth, an example of what could be achieved if you just played along and played your part.

Kristen was destined to be the perfect picture of a devoted follower of Helio. She was the poster child, born smack dab in the center of Helio's flock, surrounded on all sides by followers and moulded into the perfect unquestioning chosen one since birth.

But by choosing Kristen, by marking her as property of a God, Helio gave Kristen power. Power over him, power over good and evil, the divine and infernal. Because Kristen is promised to Helio, because she was chosen by him and prophesied to be his, Kristen wields the power to start the end of days and crumble nations with a snap of her fingers. Should she want to, Kristen could destroy the world by simply not doing that, by not ending up in Helio's afterlife to live for eternity by his side, by proving a God wrong.

And it's with this power, this leverage that Kristen holds over Helio's neck like the sword of Damocles, that Kristen is able to free herself from his grasp. It's slow, at first. Joining a 'risky' school, meeting people outside of the religion, questioning elders, researching history and religions. And she doesn't understand how much power she has, not at first, because the power she possesses isn't magic, but a divine promise and unspoken rules that govern a world that she was never supposed to know.

But despite not having magic, despite being chosen for her averageness, despite being trained to be naive and blinded to the realities of the world, Kristen is overpowered as, if you'll excuse the pun, hell.

Helio creates divine religious scholars to protect her when she doubts and strays from him. Helio creates an entire new deity and religion for Kristen, allowing her to think that YES! (and, later, YES?) is it's own separate power from his and he does all of this, not out of generosity or love, but because he needs to keep Kristen alive. Kristen cannot die before she rejoins Helio's flock or the divine promise will break and Helio would be fucked.

So Helio gave her power under the pretense of it being from elsewhere, solely so that he could keep Kristen alive until he changed her mind.

And then! And then Kristen dies! And is revived. And she's Saint Kristen Applebees now (but the Saint of who?) and Helio has fully given up on her and turned his back on her (but his prophecy cannot be unspoken and he cannot be proven wrong so does he really? Can he really?) and Kristen finds a new God, a broken God and Kristen chooses her.

Kristen names her, creates her, Cassandra the Goddess of Doubt and Night, and Kristen finally has her religion, a source of power that doesn't stem from Helio, she's finally escaped his grasp.

And yet.

And yet, Helio still spoke his prophecy, still chose Kristen and she will always have that power over him.

And yet, in his own foolish shortsighted attempt to keep Kristen within his grasp, Helio still created a deity for her, a separate divine entity that chose her as well.

And yet, Kristen is still the undying, the follower of Night and Doubt, Saint Applebees, Creator of Cassandra.

With no real magic to speak of, with nothing special in her bloodline, with no real talents or money to her name, the perfect picture of normalcy in every way, Kristen has managed to twist the divine sphere around her little pinky finger. She has so much power and she has so little awareness of it.

And also she's going to be President, bitch.

#there's a reason why (when asked if theres a new chosen one) the other cleric made it VERY CLEAR #that Kristen was special in that regard. it doesn't transfer. she can't be replaced. it doesn't work like that #theres a reason why the bad guys want to know where YES! was created. why Cassandra was targeted first.#KRISTEN HAS SO MUCH FUCKING POWER YO ITS INSANE #thats MY president #kristen chilis applebees #an actual fucking saint and wielder of so much divine power #and shes failing her cleric classes. KRISTEEEEEN. WRITE YOUR ESSAYS BESTIE #YOUVE CREATED MULTIPLE FUCKING GODS AND DIED SEVERAL TIMES JUST WRITE SOME ESSAYS #dimension 20 #d20 #kristen applebees #fantasy high #fantasy high sophomore year

Nya's design for my Scorched Au. Also this is my first time drawing Nya with her short hair so that's neat!

Nya's pretty important in this au. With Kai off doing his own thing, Nya ends up training to be a ninja/master of water WAY before she does so in canon since Wu thinks her abilities will be very useful. Which makes sense since you know, Kai is the master of fire. Having a master of water to deal with him would be pretty useful.

Although most of the time when fighting, Nya is trying her best to reason with Kai since she thinks if anyone can talk him down it's her. And while it's true that Nya's really the only one left that Kai cares about, he also sees the fact that Wu started training Nya as a way of replacing him which does not help his mindset at all.

Overall, it's complicated between these two. Obviously Nya doesn't like seeing all these places getting burnt down in Kai's path, but she also doesn't want to lose her brother. Meanwhile Kai doesn't want to hurt his sister, but he also wants to prove that he's good enough to be the Green Ninja so badly that he will burn down anything and anyone standing in his way.

Also bonus drawing of Kai seeing Nya as the water ninja for the first time:

#ninjago #lego ninjago #my art #scorched au #nya smith #nya jiang #kai smith #kai jiang #i had this au on the brain again and figured i should work on some character designs #also took all of my willpower not to make nya's gi grey #since i'm not a huge fan of her red/crimson/whatever you wanna call it colored gis #but since this takes place so early on it made sense #and also her wearing red also helps add to the whole thing of kai thinking she replaced him #since now she has his color #idk it just made sense to me #i still have one other major character i need to design for this au #but i won't say who that is just yet #it's a secret you guys will have to wait and see

Thinky thoughts ... I'm choosing to think that Sugar didn't speak for the first week she met Emmet, since she didn't actually know what the guy she's supposed to be mimicking sounded like

#hoof draws #replacement ingo au #I.E. emmet finds out thing pretending to be his brother can also mimic his voice; psychological torment gets substantially worse #<- still v rough though #as i said at some point. sugar doesn't speak much at work b/c her voice doesn't pass very well #it's a littl bit lower & rougher than it should b. has that film grain effect (?) cipher guys voice has on it

Dick + not getting phone calls

1. Bruce makes Jason Robin (Batman 416)

Dick: "It was quite a kick for me to learn about the new Robin in the newspapers."

2. Jason dies (New Titans 55)

Dick: "Bruce never called to tell me what happened to Jason. He didn’t know I was half-way across the universe, but he didn’t even leave a message on my machine. If Danny hadn’t found out... Blast him. Why didn’t he call me?"

3. Bruce picks Jean-Paul Valley as the next Batman (Robin 13)

Dick: "You left Tim alone with a lunatic. The kid could have been killed." Bruce: "There wasn't time." Dick: "No time to pick up a phone? No time to call me? ... I thought there was one guy who'd have faith in me. But when it comes down to the test, you picked someone else to succeed you."

4. Alfred quits after Bruce's back gets broken in Knightfall (Nightwing: Alfred's Return)

Dick: "Bruce didn't send me. I came because I'd like to know why the guy who's been like a father to me suddenly upped and split without a word! Because my best friend has been gone for months - the Bahamas, Antarctica, England - and I didn't even get a call! Not even a postcard!"

5. Donna's son dies (Teen Titans Vol. 2 12)

Wally: "Man, Dick, I'm sorry! I thought for sure she would have called you!" Dick: "Robbie was her world. Why didn't she call? I could have helped. I would have... I'd do anything for her..."

6. Wally's wife miscarries and...it's complicated, but for the purposes of this list you just need to know that he didn't tell Dick or ask him for help (Flash 210)

Dick: "What I said earlier, I didn't mean for it to come out that way. You're my best friend. You have been since we were kids. And after everything you went through, I just wish I was the one you came to for help - instead of Hal."

#dick ''JUST CALL ME AND ASK FOR HELP DAMN IT'' grayson #also dick: *does not pick up his phone when roy keeps calling after donna dies*#*tries to hide and then straight-up run away from tim in the aftermath of blockbuster*#dick grayson #anyway the wally plotline is something else flash comics are bonkers you guys #at wally's 1st wedding his wife gets kidnapped & everyone forgets she exists #later they remember and have an impromptu second wedding!#another time he got replaced by a different Flash from another dimension #and that Flash pretended to be him for a while and was in the Titans and it unnerved Dick who wasn't sure if Wally set it up on purpose #you might be thinking ''come on Dick - Wally would never do that''- but wellllll /probably/ he wouldn't but it's hard to say #after Linda miscarries Wally gets the Specter to mindwipe his secret ID from everybody #but then uh oh Wally forgot too! - but then he remembers! - so he tells Linda so she'll remember!#so she's understandably kinda freaked-out that he messed with her mind albeit w good intentions and she needs some space #and then Wally goes and reminds Clark who he is and then reminds Dick who he is #anyway i feel like Dick's frustration with him here is very legit and so is Linda's though in Wally's defense #he was extremely upset by the Zoom-attack-induced miscarriage #and going to the Specter for help is not *quite* as dumb as it sounds because the Specter used to be the hero Hal Jordan #and Hal Jordan was buddies with Barry Allen the previous Flash #anyway later on there's time chaos and the miscarried twins get born after all!!#so it all works out in the end #anyway my conclusion is that if you had the misfortune to become a speedster you just gotta get used to zany adventures #hoc scripsi

Wylan:

Jan Van Eck: Alys is pregnant with a son, who will become my true heir

Wylan: Cain instinct is real, I wanna kick this unborn child into the next realm of existence, he can never truly be my brother, Kaz is more my brother than that thing

#the difference was that wylan was working under the assumption that van eck would treat his little brother the same way he treated wylan #without love and as a constant burden and disappointment- which is why wylan would have been so quick to hype him up because wylan knows #what it feels like to not get van ecks love and he would never want his younger brother to think he was unloved- but then wylan saw #van eck love this unborn child more than he loved wylan and so wylan has to fully face the fact that it wasnt something wrong with his #father (it was but wylan wouldnt come to that conclusion)because his father does know how to love his son- so it must be that wylan is #unlovable and wylan- who is known to be easily jealousy- would hate his fathers reminder of his inadequacy and what he failed to be #alys' kid is basically van eck's kuwei- there in an attempt to replace wylan- the only difference is Jesper doesnt want to replace wylan #but van eck does- and that is what makes van eck the bad guy because we have this idea of unconditional love of a parent and van eck is #here to say 'but sometimes it isnt unconditional- some times there are conditions' and i think that is what makes him so much scarier #he is there to feed at our own insecurities of 'what if i am only lovable to a point' van eck is both a monster and incredibly human #he is what we're afraid our parents will be- he's so incredibly possible and real that he is one of the best villains ive seen in a while #wylan van eck #jan van eck #six of crows #incorrect soc quotes #crooked kingdom #six of crows spoilers #honestly alys did nothing wrong and I love her #even if she doesnt have the best singing voice- she owns it- much to the dismay of the crows #but she also cares about wylan so much and she is such a sweet innocent girl and she is the best #so dont even try to bash her cause i will fight you in a Denny's parking lot istg #alys van eck

Kaeya has a habit of stealing and hoarding little things from people he loves. Small seemingly innocuous items going missing at random? Chances are, Kaeya is behind it.

#hc; kaeya #//It's in the little things #//Makes him feel like he's keeping little parts of them for himself #//And boy does his guy have one helluva sleight of hand when it comes to stealing things #//Had to learn how in a pinch; considering his travels with his dad #//Did so for a bit with the Ragnvindrs; foods and things he might wanna take with him if he needed to run away #//But then it became a way to connect with them in a way #//Stealing Crepus' ties; Diluc's hair ribbons; a kerchief from Addie; a coin from Elzer #//The coin he has is that very one; keeps it on his person bc of how dear Elzer is to him #//Like the brother that actually stayed #//No I am not over the fact that Elzer has said he saw Crepus as a father figure too ;-;#//The older Kae got; the more he took; esp if the items had ties to Important Memories #//That was just in case his memories of them starting mucking up; be it bc of the Curse or his usage of Abyssal energy messed with his head #//Some of his most prized possessions are a bottle of Crepus' cologne & the bloodstained tie he'd swiped from his body the day he died #//A bottle of scented oil he stole from Jean's desk when he'd comforted her after Diluc left #//A perfumed letter from Lisa after he'd intervened and vetted her capabilities over Nymph #//A grubby; shriveled philanemo mushroom--the very first Klee ever gave him when they'd met #//A crystal he'd snatched off Albedo's experiments that he'd intended to investigate but wound up treasuring #//He still uses one of Diluc's stolen hair ribbons to tie that lock of his; one he stole off him the very day BEFORE the Heckening #//From Huffman; he'd stole...his heart. Jkjk; he stole a pair of gloves from him. Wears them over his own when in Dragonspine #//Nabbed the first time Huffman told him they were friends; Kae was ECSTATIC to have finally made one for himself (outside Luc & Jean)#//The biggest item he's taken is one of Addie's shawls; that she'd wrapped around him some time after Diluc left #//Still uses it as a comfort when he's upset. He knows he only has it bc she let him keep it & never asked for it back #//She was prolly most aware of his little habit; bc everything he snatched within the household tended to be replaced Real Quick #//Prolly knows just how much the little items mean to him; so never stopped him

Wow someone said your kim rake was sexist ?? Where ?

Tbf the person did not directly respond to me or mention me, but they rbed another ask from the confession acc saying they had already seen someone being misogynistic [because of the Kim ask I rbed] and "saying it wasn't misogyny". As far as I could find, I'm the only person who rbed the ask at the time with a response and I literally said it wasn't misogyny in my rb. So I don't technically know it was me, but it was pretty clear they were referencing my post.

And like. It is genuinely so confusing to me. I don't even dislike Kim that much, she just frustrates me bc SO many other characters could have worked better in her place, and seeing that narrative frustration boiled down to "misogny" irks my bones. The person who (I think) called my response misogynistic said "be normal abt women". Like. Dude. Fella's is it misogynistic to dislike a female character?

@erika-de-claire

There was so much Randall wanted to say and do in response to all of this. He wanted to scream, he wanted to cry, he wanted to rage at Constance, this interloper who had barged into his home and pushed his bride out in order to make room for herself, he wanted to give in to all the feelings now swelling in his chest...

…but now just wasn't the time for that. Now, he needed to focus on Erika, his pride and joy, his daughter. His and Emily's daughter. In the absence of her mother, she needed him-now more than ever.

And so Randall set aside all of the uglier feelings he felt as he embraced Erika close, squeezing her tight as he gently stroked her hair (briefly reminded of her childhood, and how he used to do the same whenever she had a nightmare), saying soothingly, "It's alright, my girl, it's alright, it's alright, I'm here, I'm here..."

In an effort to calm them both down, he sat the two of them down on a nearby lounger, still hugging her close, letting one another's presence ground them, bring them just a little bit of much-needed peace.

#((he's emotionally drained already and he's only been home for like ten minutes!))#((he's just reunited with his now-grown daughter; his wife is missing))#((some black widow has replaced her; GOD it's so much for the poor guy to take in!))#((at least he still has erika-and erika being so soothed by her father's presence; it's so sweet!!))#outofhatboxes #erika-de-claire #V:Reunion
