While I initially believed that Xie Lian was derailed from destroying Yong’an by a random act of kindness, upon further reflection, I don’t think Xie Lian would have gone through with the destruction, whether that old man had stopped to talk to him or not.
The thing about tgcf is it’s about a person still being their core self, whether they are at the highest or lowest point in their life. We see Xie Lian at his highest point: a beloved prince revered by all who ascends to godhood and is personally taken under the wing of the heavenly emperor, who is extremely moral. Then we see his descent into his lowest point: betrayed by the people he abandoned the heavens to protect, abandoned one by one by his loved ones, watching his kingdom descend into civil war before ceasing to exist, all the while he has his faith in himself and his morals tested over and over again. And by the end, you think Bai Wuxiang has successfully broken Xie Lian, shown him that being moral and upright has no benefits because everyone you love will leave you anyways, so why not use your power to oppress instead? Except, Xie Lian doesn’t.
He gets real close to it, sure, when he collects the spirits of his dead soldiers to release in Yong’an as payback for destroying Xianle, but I don’t believe he was ever truly going to go through with it. If we break down that series of events, we see that Xie Lian collects those spirits with “full intention” of releasing them… except he doesn’t. He specifically does not do this when it would have been the quickest and easiest route to revenge, and instead, makes a stipulation to himself that he will spare the people if at least one person shows him an act of kindness by removing the sword he has impaled himself on from his body. By Xie Lian’s own stipulations, a people who are so self-centered and callous as to not help a stranger are deserving of destruction, so he would be justified in releasing the human face disease. And what happens next?
Nobody helps him.
Sure, some people contemplate it, but those people are easily dissuaded away from his aid and nobody helps him before his deadline. So Xie Lian gets up and is preparing to “enact his revenge,” except the moment he rises, an old man comes up, talks to him for a little, and gifts him his own used bamboo hat. Originally, I thought this was the moment that made Xie Lian see the humanity in mortals again, but that isn’t true. What Xie Lian was trying to convince himself of was the inhumanity of mortals and that that inhumanity was deserving of destruction, but that is not a belief he has at the core of him, so he couldn’t commit. In the same way that the people who were easily dissuaded from helping him didn’t actually want to help him and were just looking for someone else to confirm their base instinct to stay away, so too does Xie Lian want even the smallest crumb to dissuade him away from this genocide that his own morality rails again. Had that man not shown up to talk to him, Xie Lian’s turning point might have been watching some children peacefully play or watching travelers share food and a tale or watching strangers display small kindnesses to each other. The old man was his confirmation in the story, but it didn’t have to be the old man, because Xie Lian would have turned away from his path of revenge for any reason. (On that note, he is then affirmed in his decision to save the people when those same people refuse to commit violence against him in the face of death to save themselves, a reversal of an earlier scene.)
In conclusion, at his highest and lowest points, Xie Lian cannot conceive of himself using his power and authority to destroy others for his own petty reasons because that isn’t who he is at the core of him, and what he needed in that moment was just the validation in himself to see that being good was still worth personal tragedy, as long as you helped someone and could prevent more suffering. Because tgcf is about being yourself and being able to remain true to yourself in the face of adversity, not about random kindness saving the day.

I’m leaning closer and closer towards it’s not exactly the Plo Koon-Kidnapper story? That backstory is too well-known by now and it makes little sense to retell it when the most important parts are already shown in TCW. 
Here she’s significantly smaller (upper part of mom’s chest vs mom’s entire torso) because she has JUST been born (image brightened)

this is probably the opening shot of the second act as they begin the day. Mama Tano looks like she’s holding hunting rifle.
Tumblr media
This teaser screencap shows a blue spot down the middle of her forehead while the HD teaser image shows blue paint on the elder’s thumb. Combined with the description, it explains why Ahsoka looks so young and cannot speak. She is a newborn and her mom is taking her to a ritual, likely one where the child’s future is foretold.
Tumblr media
on the way home, she wanders off and meet what i hope is an akul beast. (soka has the blue paint)

edit: Mama Tano’s name is Pav-ti and the first episode is titled ‘Life and Death’
edit 2: ign recap

#when i was a teenager i stopped dotting my i's on purpose bc i saw somewhere that evil people did that and i was in my vampire#phase and wanted people to read me as a gothic horror character but now i dot my i's with tiny hearts bc i want everything to be cute#bonny has ''chicken scratch'' handwriting & i think just very hard to read cursive bc she has a medical background >:]#(well the last part of that is sort of my hc <3 i love to state my extrapolations as fact)#i'm not sure what kind of handwriting lady has#cursive seems fitting but tbh i think she'd have stereotypical popular girl handwriting for teenagehood reasons#she wasn't really popular though#kind of?? i need to determine that properly tbh 🤔#she was popular with boys. very ironic etc etc#i'm not sure how to describe it but i think her handwriting would be very simple and easy to read and she would probably have to#learn cursive as an adult electively bc i don't think she did well in school most of the time#& it would also look friendly.. kind of like popular girl handwriting but i'm not sure if it would be because she got on with other girls#or just bc lady is so innately soft#her high school situation was probably too wild for her to have any popular characteristics but at the same time i'm not sure bc there#is also that stereotype about popular girls living depressing lives/afterward & also i have 0 experience with public school so i'm#just trying to piece together what i've heard from my friends and such ✌️😌#i guess when lady was a teenager would also help me get a better feel for her school life and i am still not sure if she spent her teen#years in the latter 20th century or roughly around the 2010s bvccvb#(yes she's middle aged yes she may have graduated 2 years ago.. it happens)#lady's timeline being inconsistent is so on par with the sso vibe though

love that mgsv offers you the chicken hat if you die enough times during a mission. i genuinely love when games include a mechanic for you to still be able to progress through the game even when you’re dogshit at something. like do you want to talk to the cafe barista in rhythm heaven. do you want your little bro luigi to beat the level for you. do you want to wear the chicken hat so guards will laugh at you. even better do you want to wear the lil chick hat

Seraphina, a bit of a bird , a bit of a human . Maybe. But, my question. When she eats eggs, is it technically cannibalism?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Long answer: no. Short answer, no.
#vincenttag#nathanieltag#soniasanderstag#amontag#let amon be croccy as a treat#Oc rambles in the tags tag#everyone but nate and sera is sitting on the floor. it's cozier in a pile i guess. they do this a lot.#nate is the only one interested in this all because he's a big nerd when it comes to people's inner workings#literally and metaphorically! dude loves biology and psychology. what a nerd. what a goof. someone staple a 'kick me' sign on his sweater.#vincent just eats raw things sometimes. for no reason. he thinks it's a way to quote 'learn food better' but then he does this sh*t#vince also thinks it's cool and edgy. it is not. no one is okay with this. just eat your meals cooked and stay in your lane vincent#sera hates the bird comparisons because she's heard so much of it. puns. jokes. gags. nicknames. getting birdseed for christmas.#Made an entire presentation only to confuse her friends further on the bird situation#sonia's three moods are “flirty” “happy” and “Ick”#Amon likes to nap in his other form since he doesn't use it and it gets uncomfy after a while. Woken up for this... He barely rests as is :#To answer the age old question#no it is not cannibalism. they are not birds and if they still have traces of bird DNA it is definitely not from chicken or fowl#birds eat other birds all the time too. from eating eggs to eating their own eggs to eating smaller birds- they're like fish in that sense.#Sera used to order chicken a lot when with her former partners to try and dispel the 'but bird though' thoughts before they manifested#It did not work.#vince has a tendency of ripping all of his shirt sleeves and backs off instead of. y'know. getting them tailored. Sonia sobs every time#sera gave nate a similar 'watch' to hers. when activated it becomes a handy dandy lethal weapon! he has to wear it to sleep 'just in case.'#sera strapped it to his wrist saying 'don't worry. it isn't dangerous. to us.' and he hasn't slept the same since. yay vigilante waifu!#ARK_SYSTEMA#Seraphinatag

venus de milo in rise personal funtime mega self-indulgent visdev project part 3
prologue | part 1 | part 2 | part 2 1/2
gave her friends last time, and now parental figures a.k.a the ones who found her in the box of scarves and taught her the mystic arts
when I say I tried to not incorporate every bit of the accumulated ninja, ninja-related knowledge I have stored from the years 1994 to 2001... and yes I absolutely did make her surrogate parents tengu crow yokai.
Kept waffling on using the show’s take on mystic stuff and the type of mystic arts traditionally associated with ninja like kuji kiri, the godai and kuchiyose— not too worried though since I am struggling keeping this loose as this is meant to be an exercise in having fun designing and a time waster until Aug 5 which, I have to scream: THE TRAILER CAME OUT AND IT FRIED MY OUTER LAYER OF SKIN OFF, I AM AS EXFOLIATED AS I’VE EVER BEEN AND EVER WILL BE.  I AM READY TO FULLY ABSORB THE MOVIE LIKE THE FRESHLY PEELED KITCHEN SPONGE I AM.
join me next time where I explore whether Draxum or Big Mama is the better choice to bring Venus out of the Hidden City and into direct conflict contact with her brothers. (let’s face it, it’s Big Mama because I love the Finding Out Your Own Family Is The Enemy trope in wuxia/martial arts films [although fighting your ‘brother/sister’ isn’t usually the blood related kind but that’s an entirely different concept from wuxia/martial arts that I won’t get into in this post])

Seeing so many sunny posts lately where I’m like hey I touched on that detail in my fic from a few weeks back :D people would actually maybe like these little details :D but then the fic itself has so little engagement so far and I didn’t want to spoil little details in summary, and I’m also absolutely too terrified/mortified to share a link to it, but I’m just like aahh, aaahhh

I would assume that misty is going to kill and eat showtunes so I want to forgive her for everything, but since it seems like she just became showtunes 2.0 I simply cannot.

my dad doesn’t know he’s probably autistic because he’s what one would call a ‘functioning autistic’ and he’s a senior citizen so he has never questioned these aspects of himself
