listening to juri's speaker playlist and reminiscing fondly about the red war and i was so zoned out that i managed to convince myself i could replay it and then i Remembered and it was like lucy pulling the football away from charlie brown except my brain was somehow both charlie brown and lucy
#at this point bungie#bungie listen to me because i'll only say this once#at this point. i would buy it again. just to be able to replay it#i would be furious at having to pay for things you stole from me but i would. i would. just to play red war again.#every other mmo manages to be massive without vaulting anything#just put more effort into the story than the graphics and most of the players won't care#i would take lower res to be able to play the stuff i BOUGHT#personal#fel's destiny#sigh. every time i get into destiny i can't help but get salty about this#i just miss the red war so much#it was the best of d2 for me#coming into it after being a d1 player for a while was an incomparable experience like i'm so so so happy i got to experience it like that#i will never again feel the emotions i felt coming to the tower in that storm#seeing the traveler caged#losing my light#all those cutscenes with the speaker#getting called 'saladin's young wolf' by shaxx at the beginning <3#i will die on the hill that if bungie hadn't started the seasonal model they'd still be making a stellar game#put all the work into the expansions like every other mmo and deliver a big punch of incredible story#people find shit to do in wow and ffxiv and warframe and etc etc in between expacs#they'd find shit to do in destiny as well#but they just gotta capitalize on that fomo#and cater to the people who play it 24/7#knife emoji etc etc#i bitch but i'm still fucking playing i guess#i just wish my beloved would return from the (red) war that's all#and that the seasonal model would die and bungie would realize it's OK not to make money constantly between expansions#that's called making an mmo babes#charge a sub like ffxiv does if you're that desperate

ykw, i just realized i never posted these here! so i'm fixing that!
i got into 3D printing last weekend and wanted my first full print to be a digivice model i got from thingiverse (retooled digivice by boardernerd / thing:2695824)
i'm making more with the variety of filament i have, and eventually i'm hoping to also learn how to make my own models heheh
also i'm lumping all the image IDs into one place here at the end because as nice as these shots are, at the end of the day It Is A Digivice bsdfjhsbfsd
[Image ID: 9 photographs of a 3D printed Digivice from Digimon Adventure. The body is printed in a bright, semi-translucent magenta filament, while the screen, buttons, and antennae are printed in a semi-translucent royal blue. The print pattern is slightly visible through the topmost layer, overlaying a hatched texture on a gyroid fill reminiscent of damascus steel. Each photo highlights a different angle of the device, from the front, back, sides, top, and bottom. There is a visible seam between the front and back shell. Other miscellaneous items including test prints and other desk accoutrements are visible in the background.]

okay
I'm sure someone's already done this and I've just missed it but
does anyone know where I can find like. a full breakdown of the differences between pacific rim and pr uprising?
regarding things from the difference in aesthetic, design philosophy, cinematography, animation, etc etc to narrative tone, atmosphere, names, humour, characters, etc etc
(please don't give me the "what sequel? there was no sequel" thing here. I don't like the movie either but I want a full analysis on where it fails on an artistic level where the first one succeeded instead of "they made it like the transformers movies" and "something something china bad something something" and whatever)
I'm fully aware people have written (and complained) about things like the jaegers feeling lighter and moving more effortlessly and the difference in choice of camera angle and movement and the kaiju feeling more like generic movie monsters in uprising but I don't know if there's any one piece that covers all the artistic differences between the two movies

Attention Destiny Artists !!
I've just discovered an entire google drive folder with over three hundred 3d models straight from the game, both d1 and d2, completely up to date. The folder comes with a tutorial on how to get the models yourself in case there is a model you are looking for that is missing from the collective, and for all the others all you have to do is extract the .rar folder and shove one of the models into the program of your choosing ( such as blender, which is free, btw ) I cannot tell you how many things I've hesitated to draw just because I could not find a good reference. This person is doing god's work. Happy Art-ing! ദ്ദി (•̀ᴗ•́ )

So, after this episode of TMAGP, I have some thoughts.
(Spoilers for The Magnus Protocol up to episode 10 below. You have been warned.)
First of all, Mr Bonzo is terrifying and I am regretting making a model of him, which now sits and watches me from my bedroom shelf. I have so many questions, and nowhere near enough answers to satisfy my brain.
But what got me even *more* is what happened at the Magnus Institute ruins with Sam and Alice.
And who is this [ERROR] (Voiced by Beth Eyre) that is seemingly unleashed from the institute ruins at the end?  
Well, I don't know. But I do have a bit of a theory...
What do we know about [ERROR]? Well. Not much. But I did come across this casting call from RQ, posted by @pinkelotjeart, which at the time they thought might be about Celia, however I can't see how it could be anybody if not [ERROR].
Tumblr media
Mysterious? Absolutely. Hostile? If they're not, I'd be shocked. Raspy voice? If that breathing was anything to go by, definitely. Initially dormant, trapped + forgotten for twenty years? Well, the institute burned down just over twenty years ago, so I'm going to say that's a match too. Now the line that interested me most is the one that OP also highlighted - "building an identity for itself at the expense of its victims". 
What else have we seen "building an identity for itself"? Something that Colin has warned Alice against personifying over and over again? FR3-D1. And Freddie certainly seems to be taking its toll on Colin, who could feasibly be it's "Victim"...
Now what exactly does this mean? I don't know! But noting that [ERROR] is also the way Jonny, Alex + Tim Fearon's character names were written out by RQ when the casting was announced (as they couldn't do the glitchy effect from the images), it feels significant. 
But like I said. I don't know. That being said, imagine, for a moment, that you are this "[ERROR]" character...
You know your body is under the Magnus Institute, so you wait, biding your time, collecting as much information as you can. You watch through people's devices - harder, at first, but it gets easier and easier as technology advances. Some select few get the chance to relive their experiences, a "test screening" of sorts you name 'Voyeur' - you need to check your recordings are accurate somehow. You get involved with a tattoo artist named 'Ink5oul', who helps you out by live streaming their tattoo processes, showing you what the symbols they tattoo onto their clients mean, and how they combine.
You're not entirely undisturbed in your tomb under the Institute, of course - some idiots come poking around. It's a newer craze, "urban exploration", but you need it to stop. You find the most popular urbex forums, and, using the moderators accounts, make sure that your ruins are marked as "cleared" - there's nothing interesting to find there, so nobody will bother you. 
That is, until someone who goes by the name of "RedCanary" comes to the ruins, and almost destroys everything. It isn't time yet. You find their post about the Institute and see that they're planning to post photos of the symbols that have been drawn over the ruins. That will only invite more interest, you can't have that. So you go through their phone and warp the photographs they took beyond recognition. You send them "anonymous" threats, making it look like it's through the forums. You use their webcam to watch them, making them more and more paranoid. The paranoia makes you stronger. You dispatch of them, and take a photo as a warning to everyone else, then post it on the blog. That'll keep them away. 
When you've gathered enough audio data to learn to emulate voices, you start to speak. You read out the cases that will give the OIAR employees the tools they need to help you in your plight. But nobody notices. You can't be too specific, that'd only lead to more people poking around the ruins, destroying your chance. No, you need the right person. Somebody who understands The Magnus Institute, who can help you properly. 
And then, conveniently you listen to the interview of one "Samama Khalid", and know that it's your time. He was on the list from KLAUS. So you start slipping in hints, waiting for him to get involved. And he does. And now he's freed you, and has absolutely no idea what he's just unleashed.
Anyway! On that happy note! What does any of this mean? Who knows! I am very excited to see where this goes. But I will leave you with a couple of thoughts:
- If [ERROR] was created "from someone on the point of death", is this how the other voices in FR3-D1 appeared? In which case, that leaves Jon, Martin + Jonah (?) dead. Did [ERROR] die in the fire that destroyed the Institute? Were they the cause of the fire?
- How are the artifacts we've seen so far (the dice + violin) related to all of this?
- How are Starkwall involved in all of this?
- And last of all, how do I destroy my model Mr Bonzo? I never want to witness his horrible face again.
If you've made it this far, well done. Let me know what you guys think! Happy listening!

Hi, long time fan of your depictions of most characters but especially a fan of Rasputin and all things warmind- Have you ever seen the half-complete 3D model of what rasputin's exo body would have looked like in the unused pre-release version of the story? it's not a leak, it's just very well hidden. artist who made it for bungie posted it like a month before d1 came out on a personal blog with no reference to either bungie or destiny written in the description and I myself only just came across it recently.
Thank you!! I love Big Red 🥺💙
Omg no, I haven't?? I've only ever seen the old concept art for the scrapped D1's original story. This one:
Tumblr media
It's actually the first time I'm hearing about some 3D model existing, so I'm very curious to see it!

Magnus Protocol: Misfiles
Why hasn’t Sam asked how there are misfiles? Their very existence prompts a whole lot of diegetic questions. (Also non-diegetic questions, but that’s, you know, the point of a mystery.) Sam is a smart and curious guy. Why hasn’t he pressed this?
I did a complete relisten on Saturday and this is bugging me.
We hear in “First Shift” Gwen and Alice bicker about misfiles, about Gwen’s accuracy rate; Sam hears this. In “Making Adjustments,” Sam is already trying to reverse engineer the DPHW system. He’s curious about the system … but hasn’t addressed this enormous clue that crops up on Day 1.
The very idea of misfiles and accuracy means that a) the work is being read, b) the filings are being compared to a source of truth, and c) that who/whatever is reading the work has access to a source of truth.
What happens if you just enter garbage? Someone must have tried coding every case as “Dolls, watching”, throw in a DPHW of 9999, and 19390901 as the date, right?
But Alice doesn’t; at least, she doesn’t breeze through cases like she’s just putting in garbage. There’s no chance she hasn’t thought about it. She acts like she’s under the workload strain. She acts like she knows better than to enter garbage. Has she tried and was reprimanded? Did she see the aftermath of someone trying it?
It’s clear to the audience that all the office crew who predate Sam know more than they’re letting on. But Sam has the information, and the curiosity, to see there’s a big hole in what he’s been told.
It all comes back to the same question: why do the job? It’s what they’re paid to.
Okay, step back. Why pay for it?
Another step: why pay for the OIAR work AND for someone/something else to check the work?
That last one I have a guess for: they’re training an AI (FR3-D1? Mr Celing?). Whether the artificial aspect is from alchemy or technology or eldritch gods or whatever, they’re training *something* to assess. To train it, you need human input. You need humans to do the job. They’re stuck doing supernatural captchas.
(It could even offer a non-TMA explanation for the sudden TTS crew: FR3-D1(?) developed a good enough model to assess certain cases as more likely to be true. Those are forced more strongly on the office staff using TTS.)
Or maybe Sam needs to be marked by 15 Desires, who knows.

Random Trains I Found Part 1:
So, I've put off writing my myriad of WIPs for a bit to spend some time just... looking at trains. Reconnecting with them. Hunting out ideas for the future and being amazed by the past. And here's a few of my absolute favourite random, insane trains I've found so far:
NGR Class D1:
Tumblr media
This right here was the first 4-8-2 ever built - and it's an absolutely massive tank engine from South Africa. It was built to the 3ft 6in Cape Gauge and it began running in 1888. Take a moment for that to settle in - 1888. The USA didn't run a 4-8-2 on it's network until 1911, a good 20+ years later!
Russian Class Kh:
Tumblr media
It's a 2-8-0 class built in the USA for Russia that had examples sold to Japan with the last example preserved in China. I personally like these engines because they really do tell us so much about how much the world changed - they began life in 1895, and somehow (I would love to know how if anyone has any information) one ended up in a river in Jilin Province, China. It was probably WWII, but all the same, these engines went places!
Prussian P8 Class:
Tumblr media
These engines started life in 1908 and weren't retired until 1981 in Poland at the latest - and if that isn't an opening to an epic class of locomotive, I don't know what is! Roughly 3900 of these machines were built, making it potentially the single largest class of passenger engine in the world and they ended up just about everywhere in Europe, from France to Norway to Romania, where a number (200) were built under license. And the reason they lived so long? They were simple, strong machines.
GWR 2600 'Aberdare' Class:
Tumblr media
Honestly, I just like these because they look so odd. Like, these are GWR 2-6-0s that look like a City or a Bulldog class. They have the double frames and the coupling rods of a 4-4-0 - and that's because they were introduced in 1900. They did manage to make it to 1949 hauling coal trains, but the GWR had already been withdrawing them in the 1930s, as they did with their older stock. I wish one had been preserved, they'd be so cool to look at!
NGR Class C:
Tumblr media
Last but certainly not least, these behemoths of South Africa once again prove that somehow, the former Cape Colony was at the forefront of wheel arrangement innovation. It's a 4-10-2T. It was built in 1899, alongside the GWR Bulldog class! These things were massive... and eventually rebuilt to 4-8-2T locomotives. But there were 137 of them built, making them the most numerous of the 4-10-2 type locomotive ever constructed.
I want all of these engines. I would love to know more about them, I would love to own one (in model form) and I am going to love continuing my journey through railway history to find more random, interesting locomotives to share.
And as usual, all images belong to their respective owners.

And now, please enjoy the second installment of me recounting about men I've possessed
Wesley
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
As much as I loved being Cylus, I knew that it was time to move on to the next body. After all, the duty of being Captain was calling me, and I simply had to answer. Pride month was coming up at the time. I wanted a body I could go all out in during the month of June. And as I was out clubbing as Cylus one last time, I ran into Wesley. He was a shy one, just keeping to himself at the bar, but then I came along. I offered a dance and he accepted. We danced body grinding against body and during the heat of the moment, I left Cylus and entered Wesley. It was a seamless possession, just slip in and take the wheel, but I had to get out of there quickly before Cylus or any of Wesley's associates caught on to what happened.
Thankfully, I got away without a problem that night. And so started my Pride 2022 living as the sexy Wesley out on the island of Puerto Rico. Needless to say, Wesley was feeling much more body confident while being the Captain. Dancing nearly every night surrounded by hunky men and with minimal clothing... I loved every second of it.
Jaime
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Of course, like anything else in life, all good things had to come to an end. Pride was over and so was my time possessing Wesley. Thankfully, however, finding my next body wasn't such a hassle this time around. A college basketball team had come to visit Puerto Rico for summer break. Although the basketball jocks were living wild during the nighttime, the coaching team still had them training long and hard during the daytime. And what was part of their workout routine? A visit to a masseuse to soothe those sore muscles; a masseuse like Wesley. I purposefully waited until I had a chance to massage the entire team; then once I made my choice on bodies, I made my move.
Jaime, number 24 on the team, had walked in with only a white towel wrapping around his waist. He told me he was feeling tense around the back area, and proceeded to lay down on the massage table. I went straight to work massaging Jaime's back muscles. It was so hot rubbing him down from an outside POV one last time. I concentrated my life energy through Wesley's hands, leaving him and entering Jaime through his back. While I fully adjusted myself inside Jaime, I could hear Wesley sounding lost and confused at what had happened to him. I simply raised my head and reminded him that he was in the middle of giving me a massage. Although confused, Wesley went along with it without further questions.
With Jaime under my control, I had yet another successful possession to add to my resume. I gotta say, I didn’t think I'd enjoy the life of a college basketball star but it's been pretty amazing! All the parties... media publicity... the DL jocks in the locker room... And hearing my name being chanted from a crowd of people while I shoot a 3-pointer? A priceless experience, Jaime was the perfect choice for the next Captain.

It felt good living the life of a rising basketball star, but that isn't to say it didn't come without a cost. Playing D1 basketball is hard! It was tiring keeping up with the team. After a few months of possessing Jaime, it was time to hang up my shoes and retire.
While I was searching for my next body, a thought had occurred to me. Up until now, I had been inside the bodies of two models, a reality TV star, and a college athlete. Sure, I got a chance to go wild with Wesley, but I wouldn't exactly call it a relaxing time of my life. That was when I decided to take it down a notch with my next body. I had called up Jaime's barber Shawn for a house visit. He came in and proceeded to cut my hair. Once he was done, I shook hands with him and jumped from Jaime's to his. Within seconds I was in control of a new body yet again.
I excused myself out of Jaime's house and went straight to my new home for the next couple of months. I had anticipated Shawn was just an average Joe living the simple life in his early 30s, and I was right on the money. No need to stress about maintaining an image when all I have to do is go to work, cut a couple guys' hair every now and then, and hang out with my new friend group. Thankfully though, Shawn lived alone. That gave me the freedom to do two things; chill in my new house butt ass naked all day, and invite over as many guys as I wanted to get a taste of the new dad bod. Yup yup, life for the Captain will be pretty easygoing for a while, and I'm loving it.
Hope you enjoyed the latest installment of me exploring new bodies! See y'all in the next update. -Captain M.W.

So I went back to D1 to remake my Hunter so she matches the Hunter I have in D2 and…I never realized how intently Shaxx’s character model follows yours soooo, I abused my power.
Bungie, can we have this in D2, please? 🥺

15, 21, 23, 24!!
THANK U ECHO this got so long oops.
15. that one thing you see in fanart all the time
hmmm not destiny-specific (i dont have any d2 specific gripes i dont think) & i mostly follow cool gay & trans ppl so this is much less of an issue than in the wider fandom (every so often some Main Fandom Art makes its way to me and i do a full double take) but like. i knowww they are almost all the same character model in-game but can we please get some characters who arent super skinny supermodels in here. please.
21. part of canon you think is overhyped
not to sound like an edgelord but. the traveler. if we can acknowledge that the Darkness isnt ontologically Evil, i think we can (PLEASE) acknowledge that the Light isnt inherently good. and im not talking about the superpowers we get, they've (narrative team) made it quite clear that individuals choose to do what they will with based on their own morals. but the traveler is, imo, positioned as a Morally Good Agent Of The Light far more than the witness is Of The Darkness, and i think we need to talk more about the traveler's agenda!!! again, this complexity isnt completely absent from the narrative, but it doesnt feel like those interpretations are... metatextually supported igss? like zavala's frustration with the traveler leaving feels more like a very christian (as someone who was not raised religious) test of faith that zavala (and the canonical YW) have Passed and will be Rewarded.
where's tevis my best friend tevis. we need more characters with that pov. god is real god resurrected you god gave you a second chance at life with no memories of your past and a guardian angel (a "chattering oversoul," to quote toland) to tell you where to go and who deserves to die and raise you every time you fail just to throw you back into the divine crusade. like. lets talk about that a little more!!!
23. ship you've unwillingly come around to
this is hard bc i am in general very willing to "yes-and" ANYTHING with a hint of chemistry or a fun dynamic. it may not compell me but if you can point out a narrative similarity btwn characters i will almost always be down. unless its one i hate ("hate" being a strong word. really its just the strongest possible apathy) bc i contain multiudes :thumbsup:.
i can't think of a pairing i started out disliking and then changed my mind about due to fandom unfortunately. the closest would be igss that i hate crow/amanda as its written in the text BUT my perhaps controversial opinion is i think transitioning could fix crow specifically the version of crow i have in my head who did not get uldren's memories back. SotL was so good for the overarching plot of d2 but so so so bad for the type of awoken-enjoyer i am & imo the like... thesis statement of what a guardian is lol!
so unfortunately i dont have an answer for this one (i dont think "i like the pretend version i made up in my head" counts as coming around on a ship lmfao), bc you can pair any two destiny women and ill be like yeah for sure! and i have curated my online space well enough that i rarely see any other kind of ship, and when i do its gay men (o14, uldren/jolyon, someone i follow is cooking something with saladin/drifter which is inspired. i love whatever is happening there) which is like cheering absently for a sports team idc about but support on principle.
24. topic that brings up the most rancid discourse
mara. its always fucking mara. literally spent an hour and a half last night rehashing d1 mara-course in a server with someone who has not read any lore. which is fine! thats a fine way to engage with the game! its a valuable perspective! but use i-statements and accept that you are coming to the table with 10% of the facts about the character.
honorable mention goes to anything about redemption arcs (and savathun specifically)- most recently that fuuucking saint killing sav repeatedly lore tab. and if you (general) cant be assed to care about evil women (skill issue, but whatever), thats also backsliding YEARS on saints characterization and i dont even care about saint!!!
so really the answer is misogyny lmfao.
