#destined from the beginning.

[soratsuart]

Okay, so let me get this straight.

Yesterday Wilbur logged in for the first time since the beginning of the QSMP, found out he has an egg of his own he initially didn't want to take care of but now is his beloved daughter Tallulah he would kill for. He made a deal to get revenge of Slime for killing Tilín with Quackity.

Quackity in his grief decided he wanted to kill all eggs and tried to get Fit to help him, but he refused and said he would only aid him by providing tools, but he wouldn't kill any eggs himself. Quackity then tried to kill Tallulah after Wilbur logged off, but after reading all the signs she has written to Wilbur he was unable to do so and called off the plan, instead going to sleep at Tilín's grave again (and then he logged off and said today there's gonna be a big announcement).

After that Spreen finds a fucking dragon that attacks him, and as the day goes on we see how the dragon seems to be hostile towards the eggs instead of caring for them, even targeting the ones with two lives specifically.

Bad, Foolish and Maxo started questioning the intentions of the duck and if he's evil, as well as the eggs really being dragon eggs. Bad theorises all the eggs were set up to die from the beginning, seeing as the quests are becoming more and more dangerous. He also suspects Quackity of being allies with the QSMP admins, though Maxo believes Quackity just needs time and support to get over his grief. Foolish, on his part, is starting to suspect Bad of working with the admins to make everyone suspect each other.

Fucking binary code thing that was after Arin appeared again and attacked them, once again targeting the eggs with two lives. Then the QSMP admins themselves told them to give up in the chat.

Calmest day in the QSMP.

#qsmp #i suspect the event is coming to an end soon btw #and that something bad is truly gonna happen then #i gotta say im with BBH in this one #it truly seems the eggs are destined to die from the beginning #what for though? im not sure #soratsu speaks

Academy of Sword and Magiс

[1\?]

Penelope and Callisto's relationship begins six months before the young woman's debut. Eckhart is in love with the Crown Prince and believes that her feelings are mutual. They meet secretly, knowing that neither the duke nor the emperor will support their relationship due to political tension inside the capital. They do not show their feelings and what they know in public, for fear of being revealed.

But after Yvonne returns, everything changes. Callisto rejects Penelope and laughs if she talks about their relationship, saying that she allegedly made them up. Heartbroken Penelope barely remembers how the debut is going, how the terrible thing happens - the poisoning of Yvonne.

The whole family blames her for this, not wanting to listen to any excuses and evidence. Left completely alone under a house ban in her room, the young woman did not know what to do when an angry Callisto came to her, wanting to avenge his new lover.

Penelope, miraculously manages to survive this meeting and escape.

Thanks to the low-ranking magic she learned, after the events of the hunting competitions, she was able to leave the capital and go to the most remote part of the empire, where she wanted to settle down and start living again, hoping that the duchy, like the Crown Prince, would not search for her anymore. They enjoying happy life with the real daughter of the Eckhart family.

But she didn't know at all how she could make money here. The jewelry and the torn dress that she was wearing, she sold for good money on the first day. But money tended to run out, and it was a bad idea to think about work when they were completely gone. Climbing into her small travel bag, Penelope found a fragment of a Mirror.

"What a useless garbage," she snorted and wanted to throw it into the swamp, as the shard began to shine brightly in her hands, showing her and the fact that she put the shard of the mirror back in the bag and went somewhere. "What the hell?"

Thinking about it, she decided not to throw it away and watch. Maybe the thing wasn't as useless as she thought it was. In the evening of the same day, after a hearty snack and going into the room she rented in a tavern, she took out a fragment and tried to make it show at least something other than a reflection again. But nothing worked. Giving up, she muttered: "Maybe I was dreaming.."

The shard shone again. Penelope looked there and saw herself creating something out of boards and fabric. Finally, she understood how it worked and figured out how to make money.

"Wizards? You mean the charlatans?" the owner of the tavern was perplexed with the guest's question. "If you need useless freeloaders, then they live on the outskirts of the city, towards Aunt Dor's farm. One of them also has such a strange sign.. With a cat? Or something similar to it."

Thanking for the information, Penelope went to the local wizard. The middle-aged man was immensely pleased with her until he realized that she was rather not his client, but just a random passerby who was unlikely to give money.

"I need a room. For divination, I see the future of people and can help them find out the truth." Penelope explained.

"A fortune teller? I hardly believe it, but if you pay rent, I will be glad to consider you a fortune teller" the man happily rubbed his hands, hoping for a promising income in his pocket from another "charlatan".

What was his surprise when the number of customers in a small fortune-teller's room became more and more every month. At first, the young woman did not charge her clients who were residents of a small town. Satisfied and especially impressionable, they told their visit to Penelope to their neighbors, and those to other neighbors from the neighboring village, spreading the story further and further.

In addition to ordinary citizens, aristocrats began to visit it, although not of the upper class, but still. From earls to viscounts. Fearing that she might be recognized, Penelope decided to furnish the room with an entourage and wear a suit that hides her eyes and hair. In it, she looked like a mystical fortune teller whose gaze is hidden from the visitor.

The fee for services grew, Penelope paid the wizard money for rent and assistance in servicing clients. A simple room has turned into a real mystical corner with incense and magical objects, one view showing that a real member of the magical world works here.

But in addition to the man, a nanny settled in the house, who looked after little Judith, who required a lot of attention and time, which Penelope did not have because of constant work and a desire to feed and provide a comfortable future.

Until one day, a strange old man comes to her for a foresighted session, asking her to tell about him and his past. Of course, she had similar clients who, due to illness, forgot where they lived or something important that they needed to remember and she did not charge them, letting them go with a pure soul to their loved ones.

But this old man was definitely not that kind of person. His past was filled with horror and death. A shard of a mirror reflecting fragments of the past into a glass ball chilled the blood in her veins. The old man, with a certain weariness and sadness in his eyes, watched his past.

"Let the Mirror show what will happen when I leave the city," he asked. "How do you know--?.." asked Penelope, frightened. "I know a lot of things, child. And I know that very soon the knight's guard will arrive here and take you to the capital. Aren't you, as one of the last representatives of the ancient magicians, afraid to be on your knees again in court for something you didn't do?" "Wh-what?.." "Ask the Mirror to show you if you think I'm lying, child. My name is Uwe, I am an elder from a small town where ancient magicians and ordinary magicians who were expelled from their lands live. I've heard a lot about your abilities and I see that you can use a fragment of an ancient magical artifact - the Mirror of Truth. This is amazing and truly an innate talent that not everyone can possess. I've come to help you. There aren't many like you and me left, but there is a place where you and your daughter will be safe. I can offer my protection and help so that you can live in peace without hiding behind all this masquerade. But we don't have much time and we need to decide right now."

Penelope looked at the flashing Mirror of Truth and clenched her hands into a fist nodded to the man. She needed to escape anyway if the imperial knights were already heading here. There's no reason for her to stay in this city. And Judith, too.

Seven years later, the empire makes a truce with the ancient magicians after a fierce struggle against Leila. In order to consolidate the alliance, the emperor and the elders sign a trade agreement on the purchase and sale, as well as participation in the cutting of precious stones for magical weapons. The Empire also creates conditions for magicians so that they can receive education and not be infringed on their rights.

In order to strengthen the established relations, an academy is being built on the territory of the empire, where both people and wizards will study in the same building in order to create a new generation that will rely on each other. Duke Eckhart's (Derrick) adopted daughter, 7-year-old Nora, and other children from aristocratic families become one of the elementary school students. Nora was a reserved but very kind child who was bullied despite the authority of her family.

The girl was taken from a shelter sponsored by the Eckhart family. Nora, who had lost her parents and was left completely alone, appreciated the duchy for sheltering her and giving her the opportunity to get an education that her own father could not have dreamed of. She was a timid and kind girl who knew that if she rebuffed her abusers, she could be worse off because of it, and not them at all. She kept silent about it and endured, pretending that she was not upset at all by the words of her peers.

Fortunately, by the beginning of the year, her roommate did not come because of family problems, so the first months of study the whole room was in her harness and no one could tell classmates how she cried, remembering all the hurtful things that other children did to her.

On one of the everyday school days, the girls called her behind the building to talk about her being too smart during math lessons. But as soon as the main offender managed to open her mouth, dirty water poured on top of her, which was used to wash the floor in the classroom. Offended girls screamed promising to take revenge on prankster until she saw who did it.

"You shouted too loudly, it prevented me from calmly preparing for the lesson," said a golden-haired girl looking out of the window with a bucket in her hands. "Oh, I'm sorry, Judith!..We're leaving!" classmates immediately ran away with a bully, apparently not wanting to get involved with a stranger.

Nora wanted to thank the savior, but Judith quickly lost interest and went back to class closing the window without saying anything. Eckhart spent the rest of the day in peace and quiet. Tired of the amount of knowledge she had gained, Nora went into her room and realized with horror that the same girl was sitting on the next bed.

"Hi, I'm Judith and I'm your roommate."

I feel like if I thought really hard about it, I could make some kinda gut wrenching connection between the fact that a total lunar eclipse is what's then called a blood moon and the fact that Bloodmoon was made before Lunar and Lunar was the one more dependent on Eclipse than Bloodmoon ever was. or smth.

#xero says things #xero thoughts and rambles #hint: I've already made a gut wrenching connection (it is only gut wrenching to me) #smth smth. the fact that a total lunar eclipse is distinct enough to earn its own name #smth smth. eclipse having to dail back how independent and distinct a creation can be from him bc otherwise they can run off and do their- #-own thing. #smth smth. lunar eclipse. amth smth. lunar and eclipse. smth smth destined to be stuck together in some way because there can't- #-be a lunar eclipse if there's no eclipse to begin with. #IDK idk!!! if u get me then u get me and if u dont. sorry LOL #sun and moon show #the sun and moon show #tsams #sams lunar #sams eclipse #sams bloodmoon #lunar #eclipse #bloodmoon

Thinking about Black Sails again and am once again overwhelmed with the tragedy of it all

#they were doomed from the beginning #the pirates by history and the walrus crew by being set peices in a prequel story with a concrete destination #there was nothing they could do #black sails #liv talks #as someone who was not familiar with treasure island going into black sails #i probably would have been even more devestated knowing for certain how some characters would end up

[justaz]

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

@an-angel-so-called-satan made a post about how and why she feels about VADD lately and I 100% stand whit the feeling, but with different reasons.

There's the same push as in 'the villainess is a marionette' for making almost every panel a very detailed work of art and it comes with a price. Personally I don't find the story dragging, instead the artwork stopped being diverse so it's just not registering if that makes sense.

Exhibit A

Exhibit B

where the last panel should take your breath away, but it's just a little light in the background

The more simple art slyle that where present in the first two seasons gave SOUL the possibility to play with the characters more. There where more faces, angles and interactions. It was about how to draw the story. Now that time seems to be spent on drawing details and copy-pasting is just necessary to make it before the deadline.

I understand that more high quality panels means there are more merch that can be made, but the difference in the maze chapters and the birthday one (for example) is astounding if you pay attention. SOUL is not only a good artist, but an amazing storyteller and we have been robbed of it in the past seasons.

#honestly it looks like an otome game #which would be cool if it was the idea for the manhwa from the beginning #also with a simple art the core moments shone #now everything is monotone and basically a drawn tautology #villains are destined to die #death is the only ending for a villainess #death is the only ending for the villainess #vadd

[pikkish]

Yeah we've already talked about how outright stupid the lore n writing for modern Doom is, but tbh I can understand why they had to do something with Doomguy, why they had to make him The Specialest Boy instead of Just Some Guy. Do I like how they did it? No, I would've taken it a different direction. Do I think that hugo could've done it well even if he took it in the direction I would've? No, I have minimal faith in his story writing. But realistically, how many times can a guy singlehandedly accomplish the impossible before you have to acknowledge he's very much not Just Some Guy who happened to be at the right place at the right time? I think that, with how every single other person on the Phobos UAC base were killed in Doom I, doomguy stopped being Just Some Guy the moment he decided to do anything other than just lie down and die.

#pikspeak #im sure this is old news what with eternal being 4 years old now but. idk ive been thinking abt it. #i dont like the 'you were a chosen one from the very beginning!' trope too much #makes it feel a little like what the character actually does doesnt really have any significance #like if they were the chosen one who was going to win from the very beginning then why does it matter. #its the whole free will vs predestiny argument and. idk. i just think it could be done better. #no modern doomguy cannot be just some guy anymore but. it couldve been done a lot better. let him have been just a normal guy who had the #option to be normal and die but chose not to and through his own actions made himself significant #then again. maybe it wasnt the moment he didnt stay down that he became significant. i do like the idea of blazko having something to do #with it. i do like the idea of blazko having picked up the spear having something to do with it. #but still. 'youre actually a god and you were going to be this powerful Always' is just. not appealing. let him have some influence in his #own power. u dont even need to take the thing w the divinity machine out. just make him a separate entity from davoth instead of davoths #clone/destined counterpart. let dg make the decision to rise to davoths level instead of saying he was always there from the beginning. #sigh. i couldve written eternals story so much better. and yet. somehow i am still repeatedly drawn back to it. sighing smh.

Oh sweet jesus I'm starting to hate this episode again

#destined with you #if miscommunication between two late 20s to early 30-somethings is gonna be a key plot device #then i'm just gonna take a shot every time there's miscommunication and make this into a drinking game #because there's no way of sitting through that sober #this low level of emotional intelligence is giving me whiplash but tbh shin yu has been like this from the beginning #OH MY GOD is this the only reason he didn't break up with nayeon before boy oh boy #all right i'll just shut up before i'm 70% through this ep in case things get better but if they don't #🔪🔪🔪🔪 #ep 10 #live blogging #spoilers #they really baited us with the cuteness of that first scene

Sometimes I just think there’s something deeply wrong with me idk

#txt #where did this fear of forming attachments come from #and my fear of being in committed relationship with someone #and just etc #idk I think I’m destined to die alone lol #lol #and not to mention the ✨depression✨ #seriously my life is just work home work home every day #and on weekends I just don’t go anywhere except to the damn grocery store #but also I’m always just too tired to do anything outside of that #sometimes I don’t really enjoy work #but it’s also the only thing that gets me up in the mornings during the week #and I’m getting older. I’m not getting any younger #who am i gonna want? I have not had any interest in any guy/man in a long time lol #and frankly it’s hard for me if I don’t trust men #I guess the truth is that I have no love for men irl #don’t get me wrong. I’m a straight woman. who’s unfortunately had unpleasant experiences with men in the past lol #but anyways. also with me getting older. who’s gonna want me lol. #also there’s the added factor of me being Deaf 😂 there was never really a lot of fish in the sea for me to begin with

'going to georgia' by the mountain goats but it's about lee everett during twdg s1

#. #i don't have the energy to explain myself on this one #i have a lot of complex thoughts about this that i dont think i can fully articulate rn #twdg #lee everett #oh actually im going to elaborate on one part of this because i might forget #the whole 'crossing the macon county line' repeating part of the song #lee grew up in macon #and i like the emphasis in the song of not just travelling to georgia #but having to go through macon to be there #(having to get over a hurdle to get somewhere) #and to lee the first time they go to macon after the apocalypse begins. thats still his home. #but by the time he leaves and they're back on their way to their final destination #hes gotten closure. and knows that place itsnt him anymore #but yeah theres that one part in the song where it replaces the macon line #with “this is nowhere. going to georgia”. which would be him letting go of macon. and all of his past. focusing on his current self + goal #and with all the verses and everything #i like to think that clementine. whilst softening him up as person #also makes lee unbind himself from his past. most of which he stores in macon #because of not only growing up there #but also feeling the guilt of showing up there again after his conviction #because that was the only place he could still call home #and knowing every good memory he had left was tainted with that one mistake. because all he had nothing else but his home #so yeah. after the apocalypse. before he got the closure in macon #that was the one place he had unfinished business. and its what was holding him back #so being able to say #he's simply 'crossing the macon county line' in the end. not even regarding it as nowhere. regarding it for what it was. #is monumental #even more #its not acknowledging that macon is a place of negative significance for him

[rilyvesna]

i just remembered how aaravos described callum as “destined to play right into my hands” and how in callum’s spellbook, callum himself said that him possessing the key of aaravos was “destiny,” getting the feeling to get it in the lodge way back when, and how harrow even intended to give it to callum…

not to mention, as a startouch elf archmage and how star magic is described as involving “divination, cosmic vision, and seeing into the beyond”—the art at the end of ‘patience’ detailing ziard, viren, and callum as aaravos’s pawns, and how in that one opening, it’s callum holding the key of aaravos in his hand as he gets turned to stone and is swiped by aaravos to peer at closer—

What does it all entail?

#The Dragon Prince #tdp #aaravos #callum #the dragon prince: mystery of aaravos #LIKE HOLY SHT MAN EEEEEE??? #was it destined from the very beginning…? #despite only encountering the mirror once #despite probably not seeing the ghostly form of aaravos back on the spire #was callum always destined to be a pawn of his…? #but why?

(rewatching episode 10)

Eun-wol was happy that “another” person was aware of their past lives and that she was aware of hers. She said most people aren’t…

That being said, it’s fairly obvious that the gardener remembers his past life as well (curses/hexes, the use of blood, the doll) so I’m wondering if he did something in their past life to split them up.

Like maybe him from the past was also obsessed with Hong-jo and once he found out that her and Sin-yu were together back then, casted a spell or cursed her to be his killer or have him kill her (hints her hand being the one that’s bloody.) I honestly can’t wait to see how all of these pieces tie together.

#I was watching the scene where he drenched her clothes in blood and put it in the pot #and it clicked that he probably remembers his past life as well #because he’s honestly been creepy from the beginning #before he ‘drank’ the love potion #destined with you #netflix destined with you
