#mario movie #mario movie spoilers #super mario bros #mario and luigi #super mario bros movie spoilers #cherrysip edits #I LOVE THIS WHOLE SEQUENCE SO MUCH #other than just being a fun nod to 2D platforming it's just such an amazing way of showcasing mario's character so vividly #he is driven and athletic and impulsive and rushes into things and won't be told no #he moves full-steam ahead and makes it all up as he goes along #but!!! the one thing he IS always very mindful of is his brother and what he needs to keep up safely #even if there's some joking and complaining along the way they trust each other implicitly and will follow each other anywhere #even just the fact that mario opens the door at the end when he's on the outside and the gate obviously isn't locked and it's not necessary #it's just a nice little thing he does for luigi because they're brothers and he loves him ;_; #on a very different note: luigi straight up KO's a guy in the fourth gif lololol #and then promptly gets stuck in wet cement in the next one ;; poor bb he's just apologizing the whole way #i love themmmm

I do kind of wonder if the implicit assumption that Door is mad at Alan for involving Saga should be re-examined a little bit.

The game is very careful to not frame any of Saga's relationships as paternalistic. Like, repeatedly, with emphasis, especially among the relationships with people who are close to her and have reasons to act protective over her. Having Door primarily be motivated by a sense of righteousness over someone messing with his protectorate goes against theme with her, and would single him out as the only male character whose help Saga does need.

Furthermore, we know Freya didn't seem to think that highly of Door, never telling Saga anything about him and being firm in not wanting to discuss the topic. Her considering Door a potential danger to Saga just like her powers and choosing to hide the truth to protect her wouldn't make sense if she, too, could use her seer powers to confirm that Door did have Saga's best interest at heart, and with Door existing outside of time, I don't think there's adequate signalling that this would be something he would have had a change of heart about.

Furthermore, while Door is very likeable and definitely not a villain or even an antagonist... he is very trickster-like, and seems very cavalier with how he chooses to interfere and when. From his interactions with the Old Gods, spending fourty years on kill-on-sight terms with them only to happily fanboy over having them on his show and collaborate with them to mess with Alan, to the way he almost deigned to let Alan create a hint for Saga about how to use her powers rather than letting Saga and Tim just work it out amongst themselves, he's playing the long game in every situation and seems to enjoy making the story take twists and turns because of his involvement.

So Door is in a weird superposition of meddlesome/hands-off largely because I almost got a sense that with Saga, he's keeping his distance on purpose. Keeping himself concealed and out of the conversation, despite much of her story being discovering her origins and discovering her own supernatural influence. Outside of letting Alan create a single manuscript page about him, he doesn't even hint at his own existence while Saga is in the Dark Place, theoretically right there for him to reach out to.

And if Door does ultimately think that surely any daughter of his can handle herself, there is one another innocent that has been involved in this all by Wake I could see him getting worked up over instead.

#Warlin Door #Saga Anderson #Also ange (bryndeavour) pointed out that a lot of the parent-child relationships are characterised by these #misgivings and omissions #while the grandparent-child relationships seem to be far more about reconciliation #and Night Springs *is* Logan's favourite TV show #I also think about something David Harewood said in an interview #about how Door's various faces #about how he played all of them very straight -- that Door kind of *is* that kind of wacky sneaky guy who can still be scary as shit #and I feel like how generally Loki-coded he is that would fit with this #There's also something very gratifying about *Warlin Door* being like “oh Saga? lmfao my girl can handle herself she doesn't need my help” #maybe with a side order of “I haven't been a great dad” #not only does it fit in with the themes around Saga's agency #but Door is also like the *most* the “absent and conflicting relationships with the father” that the Alan Wake files mentioned #a theme that is apparently central to Alan's writing but... not really anywhere in the stories about him #AW2 spoilers #Alan Wake (Remedy)

first off... this is my favorite blog EVER!!!!! second... does teenage kuki still have her rainbow monkey collection...

She has but can't keep them all because the room isn't so big, so she keeps half of them.

The other half is in Joey's room.

And some are still in the treehouse.

In Numbuh 4-2's room, of course.

(also thank you 🩵🩵)

#teen au #kuki sanban #joey beetles #Rainbow Monkeys #kids next door #knd #Wally can't escape them anywhere

@starrose17 - Your Lokius slow-mo gifset is the only reason this AU exists in my head.

Special thank you to all the gif-artists (especially, @mobius-m-mobius and @mmobiuses) who made this cobbled-up comparison (not to mention my metas) possible.

#god even the hair #mobius's hair #not pretty or special #no you are everything #the doors that take you to far away places #war and political corruption #thanks for the spark #please come with me I can take you anywhere #come on #lokius #loki #mobius #howls moving castle au

laura and max post hackett's quarry are that couple who always "know a guy" for whatever the situation calls for but it's always just travis wearing different hats

#laura kearney #max brinly #travis hackett #the quarry #btw the situation can range anywhere from fixing a door that isn't level to helping bury the body #travis's default response is 'ill get my tools'

This is, genuinely, one of the first times I've contemplated deleting or wiping an account in protest.

If I do, I will be more active on Bluesky and Cohost, maybe Inkblot as well.

I am, frankly disgusted by this site's decision to partner with an AI Data scraping company- especially Midjourney, in a desperate attempt to claw back any profit they can, rather then let the site continue to exist and eventually die out.

I find it absolutely baffling that this is directly after receiving backlash for the CEO's behavior towards Predestrogen. A trans woman who happens to be a sex worker who was unfairly banned. The CEO followed her onto twitter to straight up harass her, sharing her many other online handles. Disgusting behavior.

I was willing to stay on this hellsite and dig my heels in then but now I'm seriously considering wiping this blog clean, deleting my sideblogs, and only keeping an empty shell around to check in on my friends still here.

Fuck this hellsite, Fuck the CEO, Fuck the parent companies, and FUCK AI.

I have no attachment to this site as most of my friends already know me on discord and my many other social media accounts.

Would I miss the community? Yes very much so. But so many of my friends are already on Bluesky or Cohost themselves.

I have no qualms with jumping ship and I know this blog isn't "popular" so to speak but just to throw my two cents out there; Tumblr has been fucking pathetic with it's decisions in regards to to the Palestinian Genocide, Trans womens' treatment on this fucking hellsite, and now partnering with midjourney.

I am not particularly torn between leaving this site or staying until the ship sinks. I have not made a final decision.

To be clear, I find this website fucking disgusting. I don't know what I hope happens to it but I don't care to share my art here anymore. I may delete most of my own original posts here.

For now I remain, in utter contempt of the state of this site, ready to leave.

#creativelyrottedmind #rotthoughts #tumblr #fuck tumblr #fuck the ceo #fuck ai #fuck midjourney #fuck all of you. #This post may read with hopelessness but that is not the case. I have more than enough hope that Glaze & Nightshade & Watermarking your wor #can make it clear when something's been generated with AI. Can show that you despise AI. however a word of advice #Do Not Advertise Your Use of glaze or nightshade #Don't. #it puts the aim of glaze and nightshade in jeopardy. #Community and human connection will always win out I feel but only if we fight back and continue to hope and help eachother #as such i despise what tumblr has done and i am not going anywhere YET but I have my hand on the door and I am packed to leave #You can find my other accounts on bluesky cohost and pillowfort as 'creativebrainrot' #I do not give out my discord. #I may make an Inkblot account. #That's all for now. #fuck this hellsite

Weirdly efficacious to give wwx that phobia of dogs for childhood trauma reasons, because there's a level on which he absolutely has the personality of a domestic dog that has never learned to do as it's told and doesn't mean to start now.

#hoc est meum #one of those very smart very energetic breeds #that needs SO much enrichment #the kind they tell you do not try to keep this creature in a house #it needs so much space and ideally a job #but it ALSO wants to be a member of a family and live in a house and have everyone like it #unfortunately it was feral as a puppy and knows how to open doors #and you have to basically sit on it to keep it from involving itself in every single interesting thing that happens anywhere nearby #mdzs #like the way wwx is doglike as opposed to the dog in question being personlike is like #his record of being in families he does not in any normal sense belong to #his preference for being attached to one specific person #who may or may not be his Very Favorite person #and who he may or may not obey but will listen to first #and build his routines around #the...way he was in some ways the replacement for jiang cheng's puppies #and this bleeds into his role in jc's life among jc's peers #he's extremely assertive without actually wanting to be the boss of other people #or even of himself #yeah that's a key element: he wants someone to be the boss of him #he just doesn't actually have much interest in doing what they say #they're just in charge for emotional security reasons #this is a much more common personality for dogs than for humans lmao #though even with humans it's not THAT rare #he's just extreme about it #wei wuxian #but his anti-dog stance both draws attention to this sameness #and takes it off the table so it can't be read into too hard #see also the wen zhuliu parallels and where they break down #weird status subtext
