#death final destination

[tiffany-loves-broadway]

In Death Note, the protagonist is granted the ability to decide precisely when and how people die; he can effectively write his own death-based RPF into reality. However, he is so mind-bogglingly unimaginative with this broad and far-reaching ability to manipulate fate - quasi-omnipotence - that he generally runs with the default cause of death (sudden heart failure), and is effectively a mediocre supervillain with an orbital satellite that hits you with a heart attack beam. Although this enables a tense cat-and-mouse detective story, it also demonstrates, IMHO, that the writers have likely not thought hard enough about the deadly implications of probability manipulation, and probably do not expect their audience to either.

In Final Destination, the antagonist is an abstract personification of Death, like the Grim Reaper; he manipulates random chance events (a la Shamrock, or more generously the Simurgh, from Worm) to engineer the deaths of people who were "supposed to" have already died in earlier incidents, people who are messing up his plans with every moment they remain alive. However, he is so gratuitously boastful and showboaty that he exclusively kills people through elaborate Rube Goldberg accidents, which they are able to temporarily escape from with some effort and situational awareness; he does not kill people with any of the numerous less narratively appealing things that could suddenly and unavoidably kill anyone at any time, like, say, a lightning strike, or a heart attack. Although this enables a philosophically-inclined (snerk) sort of off-beat slasher franchise, it also demonstrates, IMHO, that the writers have likely not thought hard enough about the deadly implications of probability manipulation, and probably do not expect their audience to either.

the fact that you start the Tabris origin by literally stepping into your mother's shoes. the fact that what you get is a wedding outfit and your mother's worn boots, kept carefully intact for years, tucked away for this exact moment. the fact that you then immediately take the path she never could, leaving behind the alienage and the wedding and following Duncan (who would have recruited Adaia first, if not for baby!Tabris) to what ought to have been death.

And Then!! instead of fighting and falling as she did, cheating death and becoming the fighter she always intended you to be instead??? Reliving and simultaneously subverting the story of her life??

#okay no i'm not done actually #the way it feels like destiny for you to die on the alienage's behalf (soris is still in the dungeons in other origins when you get there) #and not only is that fate averted by duncan's presence #but what feels like the fate laid out for you by adaia's death is shifted too #this makes the ultimate sacrifice ending so much more awful imo #because it almost feels like a final destination-esque reckoning #you thought you escaped? no. this city will eat your bones and spit out a golden savior #who tabris actually *is* was always irrelevant and i am!!! #eating this #excuse me i am just writing baby arianwen and adaia right now and i am Feeling Things #i just!!! her boots!! is anyone listening? is this thing on?? her *boots*! #*buries face in crossed arms and sobs* #dixeram #dao #tabris origin #warden tabris #arianwen tabris #adaia tabris #oh shit oh god i just realized also #you free adaia from the dungeon in leliana's song right #and then in turn escape from the same dungeon #and when imprisoned at drakon's rise you break free from that too? #now it's tastier if you free yourself from the dungeon but #the possibility of leliana freeing you from there as well?? not the same dungeon but the same danger??? ouch. ouch!

"I have no sister." The words were knives. What do you know of my heart, priestess? What do you know of my sister? | Jon VI

--metaphorical knives at feigning neutrality regarding his sister

Jon fell to his knees. He found the dagger's hilt and wrenched it free. In the cold night air the wound was smoking. "Ghost," he whispered. Pain washed over him. Stick them with the pointy end. When the third dagger took him between the shoulder blades, he gave a grunt and fell face-first into the snow. He never felt the fourth knife. Only the cold... | Jon XIII

--literal knives from breaking that neutrality to save her

#jon snow #arya stark #asoiaf #valyrianscrolls #it's like poetry it rhymes #Jon is just destined to suffer over his love for Arya huh 😭 #god when is it finally their turn to reunite and be happy?? #people read this and really think he would've done the same for anyone other then Arya?? the delusion is strong #gatekeeping their relationship from the heathens that try and turn Arya into just a /proxy for family/ y'all aren't worthy #George did NOT have to go this hard when writing about them but I am so glad that he did #/Jon will want me even if no one else does/ you have no idea 🥹 #and when Arya parallels this by leaving the FM when she hears of his death I'm gonna be losing my mind

okay but have we considered morgana x freya?? two women who believed themselves to be monsters, hunted by the same man and his loyal followers, cursed, doomed to death the moment someone finds them out, alone. they wish for freedom, somewhere where they can be themselves, where they dont have to hide, where they can embrace their power and who they are without fear or without harming anyone.

#morgana pendragon #morgana le fay #freya #bbc merlin #morgana x freya #freygana #fregana #morya #moreya #??? #idk but listen #they just. it works. #morgana finding freya and helping her while also finally having a companion in camelot to talk about magic to #specifically HER magic #they have their dream of running away together and living peacefully with one another on a lake in the mountains #they run away together before morgause can get her claws in morgana #uther begins to mentally deteriorate from his daughter- cough i mean ward's disappearance and morgause's reappearance #in this au...morgause is the one who is constantly fighting against camelot bc she blames them for her sister's presumed death #and their persecution against her own kind #but since morgause was never fated or destined to kill arthur......HE LIVES #meanwhile. morgana is being a cottagecore lesbian with her sick werecat girlfriend #damn i actually might write this LMAOOO it seems fun #mordred. uhm. idk. is cool?? #he is fregana's adopted son who is also merlin's adopted younger brother and percival and arthur's adopted son #and when his little gf is brought before arthur. everyone is kinda like 'ur not rlly gonna murk this kids girl? are you?' #and while arthur is debating it heavily...BOOM magical gfs emerge and bully arthur into letting her go #then idk magic ban repeal and everyones happy #yippee

Final Destination is a comedy.

#A+ for death creativity but the deaths are so ridiculous that it just circles around to be comedic #the log pileup literally looks like something out of a michael bay movie SO many explosions #final destination #there may be something deeply wrong with me #horror

"If men were as bad as feminists say they wouldn't allow feminists to exist," is a real sentence I had to read with my own two eyes and ladies i don't think we're making it out of patriarchy alive.

#'men can't be that bad if they let you fight for your right to not be second-class citizens!' #every day it gets harder to keep my vow not to tell someone to kill themselves y'all don't make shit easy #i can only pray for some final destination shit only so much #patron saint of sudden deaths sent me a c&d letter so i'm getting desperate on how to off people remotely #anyway. suicide is never the answer but you could always broach the question
