horrible children who are. so so mean to each other

#tlt #the locked tomb #my art #precanon griddlehark dynamic is SO funny. the way they are just no-holds-barred absolutely AWFUL to each other. #the fact that harrow made fun of gideon for saying 'i love you' over her dead mother's grave so gideon nearly choked her to death #and then when gideon recalls this story in gtn she's just like 'yeah lol we were wild kids' #also remember when gideon responded to harrow being kind of bossy with 'your parents must have been so relieved to die' like #imagine saying that knowing full well her parents killed themselves in front of her when she was ten!!!! insane!! #there's no sense of going 'too far' between them. they casually hit what would be considered by most ppl to be 'too far' and then keep going #anyway i don't usually go in for characters-being-kids-together stuff but i will admit that childhood gid+harrow #following each other around absolutely terrorizing each other because they're desperate for each other's attention but also full of #hatred and vitriol #does compel me #like...2 very lonely very traumatized children with only each other for company. what will they do? ENDLESSLY TORTURE EACH OTHER!!! #and yet they are each other's emotional support person. its so good.

these lines hit different when you read utena as transmasc

#i mean the first one is really awful regardless. #pretty sure i read somewhere that the words akio uses means something along the lines of 'you really should remain a child' #as opposed to 'you really should remain the gender that you are.' which speaks to his whole thing about keeping these kids from growing up #and there's So Much in anthy's line even without hypothetical misgendering #anyway the au where utena has already transitioned by the time he gets to ohtori is really good #and i of course have lots of headcanons about post-ohtori utena and gender #but i've been thinking about one where he's actively questioning while he's there and is not out to anyone. #and i guess not a lot would really change but akio's attempt at making utena more feminine would have a whole other layer of awful to it #and unfortunately i think in this scenario the first person he would come out to would be akio. which is so sad #like maybe it could be anthy but idk. i think it would be something he'd be apprehensive to be open about with her #(in the show utena does tend to be more vulnerable with akio than with anthy. at least the vulnerability with him comes first. #he's her go-to person for advice in the black rose arc and utena doesn't really begin opening up to anthy like that until the third arc) #maybe i should write something for this au. i can see it so clearly. #utena talking about his confusing gender feelings in one of those black rose scenes in the planetarium #and akio doing that thing where he sounds supportive and helpful but absolutely isn't. #that fake sympathy that's actually really patronizing and condescending and dismissive but subtly enough that utena doesn't realize it #and THEN the contrast when utena finally talks to anthy about it and she empathises by talking about her own confusing gender feelings #(transfem anthy realness !!!!!) #oh wow i did not mean to write so much in the tags #revolutionary girl utena #utena tenjou #my posts

Begging people to realise tma's themes of agency and control extend to characters other than Jon

#thinking about melanie again #jon completely robs her of agency in s4 and she is (justifiably) angry at him #and the fandom just. acts like he's done nothing and melanie is just this awful cruel person #tbh i think if melanie and basira were male they would be afforded so much more leniency in what they did #disclaimer I love jon he is absolutely my favourite character but good lord he has done a lot wrong that a lot of people don't acknowledge #and basira and melanie have both done bad things too obviously but god they aren't constantly out to get jon #tma #the magnus archives #melanie king #jonathan sims #t.txt

WTFFF I thought thirteen would be my new girl crush love of my life heart eyes wife you-came-after-twelve-you-must-be-better-than-they're-all-saying bbygirl and then I had to sit down and watch as she told a man who (if he were not a murderer, of course) literally every regeneration before her would've LOVED and FULLY SUPPORTED that "the systems aren't the problem. how people use and exploit the system, that's the problem. people like you" </33333 !?!?

#WHERE IS THAT POST THAT SAID NINE WOULD KILL THIRTEEN FOR BEING A CLASS TRAITOR #WHY WOULD YOU SAY “ERODE PEOPLE'S TRUST IN AUTOMATION” ALL WORRIED AND CONCERNED LIKE THAT??? #WHEN DID YOU START LIKING AUTOMATION OVER PEOPLE THINKING AND DOING THINGS FOR THEMSELVES??? #AND WHY ARE YOU TRAVELING WITH A COPPER??? WE HATE COPPERS?????? #did we FORGET into the dalek?? how about how he treated danny?? god there's so much more I can't even remember off the top of my head #(I understand soldiers are different from cops but c'mon don't even PRETEND twelve would've been any nicer if blue or danny were just COPS) #also a bit off topic bUT MAY I JUST TALK ABOUT ARACHNIDS IN THE UK FOR HALF A GODAMNED SECOND— #I know the companions are usually the ones to do the doctor's dirty work here but like #I just can't see the other doctors NOT having the business man lure the spider for being so fuckin annoying about it #like I was genuinely surprised when they had him do that whole song and dance about not doing it and then he actually just. didn't do it #the doctor LOVES fucking with evil rich business men this is PERFECT. plus why not get back at him for being awful to their companions? #absolutely gobsmacked thirteen let him act like that. I am wrong in thinking that the others would've shut his shit down a LOT quicker?? #anyways. I love jodie whittaker and it's just so upsetting to have her doctor do something so wildly off #THIRTEEN PLEASE I HAD SUCH FAITH IN YOUUU I WAS IGNORING THE HATERS AND FOR WHAT #I can SEE the other doctors in her still I can FEEL them they're there she's doing an AMAZING job but. oh my god. what did they make her do #I can't even say she feels ooc as a whole because jodie is bloody brilliant. it's just these... moments. that don't make ANY sense to me... #especially coming off of twelve?? I get the radical personality switch but that belief is a core part of the doctor. or at least I THOUGHT #thirteenth doctor #doctor who #I still love all of you who love her and reading ur posts/fics but I. will not be making any myself.

God Casey Jr must have the most god awful absolutely phenomenal fashion sense, what with having a lesbian mom and a gay father

#rottmnt #rottmnt casey jr #rottmnt casey jones #rottmnt cassandra jones #rottmnt leonardo #rottmnt leo #my man walks out wearing the ugliest sweater known to man #cargo pants #and aviators #and somehow rocks it #good for him tbh #Leo takes him out for fashion trips at high end stores #Cass runs him through a goodwill in a shady neighborhood #the outfits they find for him are so god awful and yet so fashion forward at the same time #it’s nuts #one would think Mikey would ‘step in’ but homie ABSOLUTELY ADORES the creativity #Donnie only ever buys Casey purple clothes bc he’s a Purple Lover and we all know what that means #and Raph… can’t go shopping with him bc he just says Casey looks good in everything and doesn’t help #April buys him normal good looking clothes #but very much does feed into the homosexual disaster fashion bc she is ALSO a lesbian

“Martha... How do you stop- How do you stop it?” “You don’t.”

Martha from Ravenous (1999) ~ requested by anonymous

#ravenous 1999 #REQUESTED OVER A YEAR AGO I SHOULD ADD #i am SO very sorry that this took so long #i wasn't in a ravenous mood when you sent the request and then various Unforeseen Life Circumstances got in my way #and then i procrastinated on getting the blu ray for a bit #but - if it's any consolation - this is a MUCH higher-quality set than you would have gotten if i had made it right away #i'm remaking all my old sets with the blu ray footage - i'm OBSESSED #and it's soooooooooo much easier to work with than the black sa.ils blu rays thank GOODNESS #so lots and lots more goodies to come! #but i wanted to start with this one because i've been meaning to do it for SO long and life just kept getting in the way #i love Martha SO much - i def would have done a set for her eventually request or not #truly i am keeping it together until Cleaves' coat and the purple stole... then i just lose it #like. she loses everyone she loves to imperialist violence and then is forced to leave her home for her own survival #it's so awful #i'm so glad she survives - but it's still absolutely a tragedy (both for her and in general) #kudos to Antonia for insisting on the inclusion of the final shot of her walking out though... it's such a powerful image #in a tragic sense of her being forced off her land with literally only the clothes on her back #and in a hopeful sense that she DOES escape and live on... she isn't devoured by the system #it's just A Lot #i'm have a few more Martha sets planned that i'm really excited about as well! #one of her and Cleaves (in which i will shamelessly reuse a few of these gifs) #and one of... well... You Will See! :)))))))))))))))))))) #stay tuned!!

thinking about ieytd again. solaris this time actually. do you think she was suffering from the terrible workplace conditions that seem so prevalent in zoraxis facilities. she was important for a time, yeah, she made the death engine, but she doesn't seem to like zor all that much. she probably never had a seat at the table. she was just another engineer to them. why would they give her special treatment.

#bee's buzzing #ieytd #commander solaris #not even mentioning the probable lack of accessibility post death engine. she would absolutely be using some form of aid- #- for a while. wheelchair. forearm crutches. etc. that sort of thing. would it be so hard to get around. i think it would be #zoraxis seems like an awful place to work unless youre one of zors favorites tbh.

Ananza is the wind deity, though she's not the first with that honor. Originally the elder gods selected a man as their wind deity but after he witnessed Oh and Fulj being punished he requested to relinquish his role. Basically asking them for a mortal death rather than immortality. They obliged since the deities exist to help humans and a miserable deity won't do the job properly so no need to keep a deity bound to a task they don't want to do.

So Ananza was selected as a replacement. Fulj has no recollection of the first wind deity and Ananza has already been told by the fire deities that it wasn't Fulj's fault but she was the final straw for the former wind deity. So, Ananza doesn't hold any dislike towards Fulj and actually really likes listening to her talk. Ananza loves to dance and wander around her city so when Fulj stops by to visit, she listens to Fulj's adventures while they roam the city.

Because there are two fire deities and one can stay in their city while the other wanders and because Fulj no longer has a city to be focused on, the three like to visit the other cities to check in. Ohime and Ohiwe really like to visit Ananza while Fulj prefers to visit Ymber. While Ananza likes Ohiwe, Ohime, and Fulj, she really isn't fond of the ice deity or Ymber. She doesn't like to scramble for topics and ice/Ymber don't start conversations enough so it's a bother to Ananza to try forcing friendliness. She loves light hearted stories though and Fulj and the fire deities excel at that type of story.

(Ohime and Ohiwe sometimes call her Nana and on that note it's lore in the tags time)

#the daily life of a deity sucks #also fwiw ! deacon doesnt really tell anyone but he really wants to meet the wind deity #because he might have lost his mom at a young age but she was originally from the city of wind and had wind magic #so he would watch his mom dance either solo or with his dad and it was always fun to him to watch how happy his mom was #so when he was told it was a dance she learned when she was a child he doesnt think much of it #but he sees ohime trying to show ymber a dance he was finally getting down and then ohime pauses #cause hes trying to remember and deacon is like oh you clap three times not two #and both ohime and ymber are staring at him like what did you just say #and deacon is like yeah uh you do the claps but kinda like this in order to keep the flow free and light #and ohime is just smugly looking at ymber saying oh ? really? youve been teaching him dance moves? #and ymber is just hey dont look at me so ohime is baffled and then fulj has? #and deacon says he learned of it a while ago from someone else haha sorry if hes wrong it could be wrong #thats why ymber asks him later about it and finds out deacons mom was originally an ananza follower #and is like huh wild while ohime is now plotting how to get ymber and deacon on a vacation to see ananza #and honestly i really just want to have deacon meeting ananza now and being in absolute awe of the deity #because THATS HER YMBER THATS THE ONE MY MOM WORSHIPPED #and ymber is able to be around deacon and ananza while they converse and that #helps ananza realize ymber isnt as cold and distant as she thought he was - fascinating #and also she likes deacon who holds her in such reverence despite being ymbers follower

The key five are incredibly misunderstood by D&D, so very misunderstood. Think about it.

They turned:

- Bran into some weird mindless, one-note zombie,

- Tyrion became witless and made foolish choices that he never would have,

- Daenerys somehow became mad (even though her whole thing is *not* ending up like her father), in which she killed thousands of innocents for no fucking reason (even though she's all about PROTECTING THE INNOCENT, so, uh ????????)

- Jon went all I dUn wAn iT (even though his book version is incredibly ambitious to the point where he *dreamt of being a conqueror like his hero, The Young Dragon*) but the most understood seems to be Arya.

They had no fucking idea of what to do with her, and it showed. It showed so fucking much.

#they think her arc is all about vengeance when it's about family and identity #they think she lives to be a tomboy when she's a very obvious feminist #george literally modelled her after feminists he knew back in the 60s and 70s like ??????? #ArYa WiLl bEcOmE aN eXpLoReR is said by people who dont know her arc either #you think someone who longs to make a pack and be reunited will somehow be like 'aw naw i should fuck off to bum fuck nowhere #even though i dream of home'? #NO #when asked about what she was reminded of when she smelled the candles burning in the hobaw she thought of HOME #someone who is so adaptable will absolutely NOT see the changes to Winterfell and think she should leave #she would not abandon her family like that #nor would she leave because things are a little different #asoiaf #arya stark #ramble

#neutral feyre #anti rhysand #anti acotar #feyre at the first book was peak tbh #i wish she kept her personality from book 1 throughout the entire series #its so fucking funny to know that the 3 sisters who are like 19 to 20 yr olds have a fucking hobby than the rest of the ic who is like 500+ #like what the fuck do u even do in ur lives other than politics and wars?? or fucking ppl??? #god imagine how god awful awkward would the ic be when there is no fucking or murder involved #like can u imagine them just wondering around velaris during their free time bcs they dont know shit to do?? #absolutely pathetic #its even more embarrassing that tamlin has a fucking hobby #tbh im not even surprised bcs 1. u can compare the ic characters to a cardboard cutout and 2. sjm is a lazy writer #feyre wouldve been so cool if she got book 1 personality still #like she wouldve embarrassed the fuck out of ratshit #so much potential missed

Alright gw2 peeps, here's one for all of you with a lot of alts:

All your characters of the same class (e.g. all your rangers) are stuck together in an escape room.

Which of your "class groups" is off the worst and who gets the job done with no problem?

#edit: yall did this way more detailed than my word salad so lemme redo this class by class as well: #eles: not awful. overall a relatively cooperative group despite very differing personalities. #wouldnt be the fastest in finding the solutions but definitely are getting out of there without casualties or other damages #necros: shit tier dynamics. hostile charr that wants to be left alone vs. volatile chak madman vs. way too gentle sylvari plant #communication would NOT go well but they would make it out (neljje contributes NOTHING to this) #mesmers: nightmare courtier who is out to be as destructive on purpose as possible vs. just some guy vs. tvekks (enough said) #tvekks will suffer but they'll probably make it out. maybe. im unsure. #rangers: actually competent. if we ignore the hostile inquest rat in the room we're left with a competent charr leader and a #very cooperative norn huntsman (and bobbie but he contributes absolutely nothing). they will get out just fine. #engineers: disaster. there might be dead. too many egos in one room and a poor norn who just wants to get out beween everyone fighting #she might jus solve this on her own while the other three are about to slice each other's throats #thieves: absolute hell tier. mordrem sylvari trying to eat everything he can possble dig his teeth into. #a mildly confused human who probably just tries her best while the asura in the room is suffering psychic damage caused by #the mordrem and the charr that will simply not shut up for one second #i do not see ANYONE managing to get a solution in these conditions even if individually they might just be able to. #revs: awkward atmosphere between happy upbeat asura kid and really grumpy charr but they're getting through it #warriors: also a weird clash of personalities but they'd pull their asscheeks together and get out of there #and finally the guardians: no destructive force in here. just two very mature people and a slightly chaotic but otherwise clever bard #absolute dream team coming up with solutions. peace and happiness. #budgie plays gw2

what i find interesting is how minth 'regrets' or carries guilt for her hand and body being used (against her will) under the absolute. she says "i remember every face and life" or something to that extent. it is important to her that we, the player, know this. she thinks about them. they weigh on her. it's not regret in any traditional sense. minth herself says she has violent intentions - and how she was raised to respond with violence has shaped her interactions with others and the world around her. when she is violence, there is, in minth's mind, always a cause to justify it - she has been hurt, she is making a statement - or in the case of raiding (because girl has razed towns while raiding) for supplies, territory, defense et cetera. it's the regret of senseless violence, it's the regret of killing without any sort of justification for it in minth's mind other than sick bloodlust and impulse - it's the regret of losing control of her body and mind, literally, and being unable to stop it or gain control again until intervention from the prism. minth responds to hurts and slights with violence ( and she enjoys doing so )- but she wants these things to be justified, because she cannot get the satisfaction from striking without that justification. she'll never strike without what she considers to be just cause or provocation; doubly so if it falls in line with the tenants of her oath.

#tw: violence #awful. just an awful woman ( i love her ) #HEADCANONS. grant silence upon those who would betray it. #she makes it plain to us she never harms without intent MULTIPLE and honestly as much as it is part of her trying to regain her agency or #show her agency - she also wants to mentally separate herself from orin (aka The Worst Forced Found Family Ever). #it's important to minth that both we (player) and herself knows that she is NOT like orin and escaped that fate despite seeing herself in #orin. ANYWAY. #girl sleeps peacefully knowing she's killed hundreds and hundreds but draws the line at what she knows is senseless slaughter. #like. she is NOT losing sleep or feeling guilty abt the other shit. the absolute shit tho. THAT'S HAUNTING HER. only because she's seen #the horror she is truly capable of under that influence. anyway. ANYWAY.

I am the first to point out that, of the two leads in P&P, Lizzy’s is the far deeper moral transformation and to say that Darcy’s character especially re: his flaws is wildly misunderstood and frequently painted out worse than he is out of fear of his particular kind of power. All of that said, I do love that Lizzy is just like “no, the way you treat me isn’t good enough and I will not simply accept it”

#and the fact that he agrees with her completely and does something about it #proves how fundamentally good he is and always has been #idk. I just love that she isn’t afraid of him #and that she DOESN’t ever sort of like make up a tragic story for him for his silence and reserve #she’s just like. what is that Man doing over there in the corner #if That Man liked me he would show it differently #that Man should treat people better in social situations #and like. she isn’t wholly wrong #she is wrong about a lot as regards him #but her mistakes (some part of them) is just common man refreshing and he sees the sense in them #and again. there is no fear #both Bingley and Georgianna are a little afraid of him #and Bingley needs to take responsibility for his own actions nonetheless #but he feels the force of the personality! and sometimes has trouble standing up to it! #Georgianna’s fear is much more awe/respect/little sister love #But I just #there is something about Lizzy where she’s just so unafraid of him #and so uninterested in being awed by him in a certain way #and it’s so good for him and his generous heart absolutely loves that #basically Darcy had just gotten used to being the coolest/smartest person in the room #and had grown complacent #(because he really isn’t fundamentally bad mannered. even before) #and there’s a lot of reasons all the stuff comes out of his mouth during the first proposal #and a lot of it is the expression of the internal war he’s been fighting #And tbh it’s both honest romantic and valid #and yet all of that said Lizzy is still like ‘and I have to hear you say this about my family why?’ #and her explosive anger towards him is rooted in so much that ISN’t fair #and (again) the deeper moral transformation is hers I fully believe that #but that part of Lizzy that’s just like ‘I am too cool and interesting for you to be speaking to me like this’ #‘I am just as cool and interesting as you and I am unafraid of you’ is so valid and so funny
