“When I was fifteen, I saw the sea of clouds at Kunlun Mountains floating in between the horizon and the summit. Both true and pure, it penetrated the depth of my heart. Just like when we were at Hua County, and you looked over at me. I love how unrestrained you look when you spoke to me. It always made me feel happy. I also like that you are unafraid of authority and of challenges. You must remember, you were the one who captivated me first.”
I love this scene because I can relate to it, a feeling that is sometimes difficult to describe. Falling in love, and being in love I’m sure we have all experienced at some point or other... and I knew and understood what Ling Buyi meant... because...
The sea of clouds gently rolling across green, lush mountain peaks surrounding Machu Picchu was astounding... it gripped my heart with a sense of wonder... utterly breathtaking! Moving away from the main complex going up to Inti Punku (Sun Gate), sometimes I would be alone on the trail and I would lean back and just marvel. Whenever I look back on this memory, my heart sings!
There are pockets full of memories that makes me feel like this. This one though eloquently describes how I felt nearly word for word that it hits me like a tonne of bricks!

5.02pm a 2~5 minute cat box task. Ew. Always something. Had to rake the falling apart deck. Wh starts things & never finishes. Leaves were a foot deep. Literally. Which meant I about fell on my ass. Sigh. Anyways. It's 99.95% clean. Not "well...~70% clean.. but oh it's mostly done." Ugh. Not how I was raised! I do a task, complete it, then move on to the next. Argh!
Huh. Well. The first 4 are "housework." Lmao!
Anyways.. I hope ya'll are ok. That the day has been good to you . . That you have..hopefully.. enjoyed all my ramblings. Grinned, rolled your eyes, thought d'oh! oh baby you gots to work on that.. blushing grin. Ya know.. just .. happy thoughts when thinking about me.. at least I freakin hope so! Grin. Even when I get this vision of you ruffling my hair like I'm a shrimp in comparison. Lol! Well.. I measured myself at the uc yesterday. [Being that height is like weight, later in the day is worst time to check but anyways..] I was between 5'8 ½~¾". In my socks. I ain't a shrimp!😉😋🤭🙆‍♀️ Maybe why I love my Levi's so much. They're actually ling enough! That & sleeve length has always been an issue in my family. Ugh.
Ok. Sigh. Gotta check with family. Since haven't heard anything.
I miss you . . . . .

This song was originally supposed to be included in my first album. The first demo version took a long time to record. *laughs* Because it was my first time in a recording studio then, and I didn’t understand anything at the time. I was just nervous. When I sang, there was no emotion. [...] But after all these years of struggling and learning and broadening my musical perspective, I think I’ve grown. I want to try it again. […] I can say out of all ten episodes, this is my most confident performance yet. (x)
Zhou Shen debuts a new song “Ring the Doorbell Yourself, Listen Yourself” 《自己按门铃自己听》 on episode 10 of Singer 2020, aired on 2020/04/10

tgcf headcanons i have if i were ever to make a modern au about them because lets be honest here why would i need these if they were either canon gods or canon ghosts smh:
- aurorian (fluid between alignments) non-binary xie lian! he knows his galactian alignments and he taught the whole enby group about it so now they align with the stars (also very fitting considering he's a freakin god and a freakin ball of sunshine) xie lian has no preference, for both pronouns and sexual/romantic interests and yes this is me saying and projecting she/he/they pansexual panromantic xie lian because i can
- hua cheng is a singularian enby fight me, he just does not care and will reject all ties to alignments lmao he loved this label when xie lian introduced them to the galactian alignment system so that's that. he/they but he's exactly the type to joke about just not referring to him at all he actually means it lol this person's too far gone for xie lian to actually care about labels but i feel like he's omnisexual and at least biromantic
- feng xin had the Biggest Crisis known to man having grown up very . conflicted but he can admit he's bisexual w a preference for women, biromantic too. as for gender, he's experimenting with like a lot of things so he's not really ready to commit to a label yet. loves being referred to by they/them but he/him and she/her work fine too
- mu qing is galaxian non-binary, so a combination of lunarian (feminine aligned), solarian (masculine aligned) and stellarian (neutral aligned) just because. any pronoun works just fine for them! they also don't really like the hassle of finding labels so they just go by "queer" both out of pettiness to claim the word back and as a reassurance during pride parades that they are one with the rainbow lmao
- ling wen is genderfluid, did you expect anything else? mainly uses they/them but their pronouns can change depending on what they currently feel so always! ask! first! ling wen is also asexual and demiromantic because i said so
- pei ming is a playboy, it's canon but i think he just likes playing people periodt. drop the boy tag, he's non-binary solarian aligned because he likes to be likened to the sun, and his energy is just immaculate. he/they polyamorous pansexual pei ming!!!
- pei su is stellarian non-binary with they/them pronouns (yes they were there when xie lian gave a galactian alignment lecture) so they're neutral aligned! they are demisexual and panromantic!!!!
- ban yue is trans mtf nebularian non-binary (so a combination of lunarian and stellarian) who uses she/they pronouns. be nice to her please she is my child- she's graysexual and omniromantic with a preference for fellow enby beans
- shi qingxuan experiences genderflux both in canon and my headcanons. i like to think she's trans ftm who experiences girlflux, and she mostly goes by she/her especially during flux but again! always ask first. she's greysexual and omniromantic and i would like her hand in marriage please heavenly officials let me marry her
- he xuan is agender, you cannot change my mind. they also don't feel much attachment to pronouns so any works fine with them. oh and he xuan is demisexual and grayromantic i have decided
- okay so hear me out, qi rong is spacilian non-binary so xe is xenine aligned and uses xe/xem/xyr pronouns. xe is also ace aro and yes xe is annoying but xe kinda grew on me lol so that's why xe's here
- yu shi huang is asexual panromantic with she/they pronouns and yes i love her i would marry her too if given the chance. she is, you guessed it, lunarian (feminine aligned) non-binary! her steed is singularian non-binary like hua cheng heh
- idk why but i think shi wudu is cishet (maybe it was from that time he chided qingxuan to change back to her other form) but i also think he's bisexual so im gonna settle on gay and homophobic (unironically so)
did i miss someone important? and no idc about jun wu pls don't mention that bastard ever
yes these are all just headcanons and all of these are set in a modern time and xie lian being non-binary and knowing all about the galactian alignment system is a headcanon i will always , always cradle close to my heart also just imagine most of these gods and ghosts being non-binary conforming and instead aligning themselves with heavenly bodies like?? i HAVE a point with this don't i?
anyways feel free to hit me up if we share the same headcanons tho i do think that's highly unlikely lol plus i was thinking about making this for mdzs but how tf am i gonna do that when there are clans upon clans of characters rip my poor brain like i do have hcs but compiling them is such a bitch so i settled for this chaotic bunch instead
i feel like i definitely missed someone but oh well yolo ig

okay but for real tho. a bbcm fullmetal alchemist au would freakin slap. Obviously Percival is Armstrong, that's not even a question. Gwaine is definitely Ling. Gaius is very much Pinako, dont even fight me on that one. Gwen is Winry, hands down (mostly because I crave that sweet sweet mechanic!Gwen content). Merlin is Alphonse. And Arthur is either Ed or Mustang, and I accept no alternatives
And because I love to suffer, Daegal is Nina

I remember seeing Psychic Princess (Tong Ling Fei) in the season listings when it aired and I wanted to see it because the animation looked a lot to me like Cross Ange, which I really liked (the artwork, that is - the anime was pretty rancid), but I don’t remember it being shown anywhere here in 2018. So, when I saw it come up on Crunchyroll now that the second half has been added, I got to sit down to it after all. 
And I gotta tell you, this is a total riot. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I am all-in on these characters, especially our Princess Ye. She is independent, headstrong, insolent, ornery to her core, and as if that weren’t enough to make us like her already, they had to go and make her irresistibly cute, even when she’s being an evil little shit. The artwork is fantastic - there are some places where the CGI doesn't transition quite right and it looks a little wonky, but the stylization is still such a welcomed break from the Xeroxed copy look that everything seems to have taken on the last 2yrs or so. I am loving the look almost as much as the non-stop sarcasm and defiant obstinance. 
All in all, the story isn’t anything that’s going to surprise anyone, and what you expect to happen is pretty much exactly what does happen, but I could not stop watching episodes, is too fun. I like the thrawn attitudes, the irony of the relationships, and the really unique artwork. Not to mention PsyPri is totally freakin’ hilarious and 18 minutes of feelgood to the veins with every episode. It’s been a while since I’ve sat through more than a couple of episodes of anything lately, and in one afternoon I watched every available episode from the very beginning because I didn’t want the vibe to end, even though it seems to right in the middle of the story. Totally worthwhile watch.

The Fullmetal Alchemist Live Action Movie Part 7: More Philosopher Stones than their PC Farm Can Possibly Render
So last we left off, a bunch of weird stuff was happening. Mustang just set Envy on fire, Lust and Gluttony kind of walked up from stage left, and Ed and Hawkeye just broke out of bougie jail and barged through a chain link fence on some Jeep. Good thing Mustang is here to explain it all to us:
Tumblr media
(FYI I am so bad at spelling homunculus. I don’t even know which way is real anymore.)
What is incredible about this movie is just how much everyone else already knows, while Ed knows freaking nothing. Also, if you know about homunculi, then you know about sorcerer stones, and you’d know about...most of the things in Fullmetal Alchemist. Assuming that Mustang, who can look at a homunculus tattoo and be like “yep that’s a homunculus” doesn’t know anything else is kind of a big leap.
Tumblr media
This actor had fun. I legitimately enjoy the actor who plays Mustang, I really do.
Anyway, we do get a little bit more explanation at this point by going back to the part where Hughes dies and just...showing it a second time but with this extra  reveal:
(see Hughes die yet again under the cut because this movie did it not just once but twice)
Tumblr media
It’s at this point that Hughes turns to the phone and in his dying breath is like “It’s lab 5, go to the old POW camp, at lab 5” but not only did I think that the person on the line was the general (Because Hughes originally said it was the general) apparently now the person on the line is...Mustang? And that’s why Mustang knew about lab 5?
Like it’s...it’s just kind of confusing. I know this plot because I’ve seen the anime, but if you have not seen the anime beforehand or read the books, you’d be so freakin up a creek right now about why we saw this scene twice, and why it was completely different both times.
Tumblr media
To make things even more confusing, that whole Tucker side plot is so random, that not even our baddies know what is going on with that whole Tucker side plot.
Anyway we have to give Gluttony and Envy have to do something in order to make their presence make sense. Honestly Gluttony just needs to have a single line in this movie.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Just everything is that same shiny neutral Phong. Look at all that Phong. Like other parts of this movie are passable, this was just so hilariously overlooked.
Tumblr media
And like I dunno if this was a teeth harness or not but damn. Damn that looks stupid from the back, hahaha. He kind of lumbers slowly after these 9 dudes (same extras we’ve seen everywhere else, ps—this is still just the same guys) and it’s not all that scary because like...they can easily outrun him. The only way you can die to Gluttony is if you trip and then take a nap for a little bit.
Tumblr media
Mustang gets hurt and it’s kind of funny how they shot it. It was actually rough to cap because they have to do so many tricks to not show us exactly what is happening, so they rely on sounds, on zooming in on people’s shocked expressions, because they Do Not Have The Budget to do more than this.
Tumblr media
I don’t remember if this happened in the anime, too. Like from this point forward everything is kind of like “can you spot the source material?” because it’s just become so jumbled at this point.
Ed, who as you can imagine is a bundle of emotions by default, suddenly gets really protective of his mean Dad although like...we’ve barely made Mustang seem like a Father. Hell, we’ve barely made Ed seem like a kid. Why would he get weird and conflicted now?
Tumblr media
Just the awkward teenage energy that only occasionally stems off of Ed is very unpredictable.
Tumblr media
This is a full grown man.
Finally, we make it to Lab Number Five, the correct one this time. It’s got an alchemy circle…
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It’s got a ceiling full of...zombie corpses, if you squint real good because I have to shrink all these images (Yes, they fit in the zombie corpses, but could not fit in the North or Father or Ling Yao or like anything Armstrong) It’s got everything that we need to put that nail into that Fullmetal Alchemist coffin, but ran out of time to fully explain or do.
It’s even got Al!
Tumblr media
Yep, this is happening now, this part of the show. Ed is just having a WILD TIME trying to keep up with it and so are we.
Tumblr media
So apparently Shou could just turn Al “off” this whole time. This explains why Al was just chilling under a blanket for 36 hours, but like...doesn’t really explain how Shou can do this or why he is bothering to do it right now.
But we need Shou because...well someone has to tell Ed what the plot is and what he should be doing at this very moment.
Tumblr media
(Winry is here too)
Tumblr media
So, with the threat of Winry getting shot in the head, Shou Tucker demands that Ed make it impossible to do any magic, because magic is very expensive and hard to animate. I could be wrong...but I’m pretty sure he also took off his right arm in the show at some point nearish to the end...I think? Forgive me, everything before 2020 is kind of a haze in my memory.
Tumblr media
PS him ripping his hand off with all these sparks everywhere gave me serious Star Wars prequel vibes that I can’t explain. Something about the CGI, something about this contrived mess was like “Ah, I’ve felt this insanity before...long ago in a simpler time” and it was kind of nostalgic for me.
Tumblr media
GOL LOOK AT THAT.
This Mickey Mouse glove just hot chilling on that sparking end. Hahaha I love it so much!
Tumblr media
Shou just...delivers one of the most important reveals, sending Ed on a bit of a spirit journey because the stones he’s wanted for so long are actually very bad.
Tumblr media
As you can imagine, because Ed likes to freak out, he has a big ass freak out, to top all freak outs. This actor spent like sooo much of his time just screaming at the ground. Which, I mean this is a shonen, so that checks out.
Tumblr media
I’m just letting you know in case you decide to watch this movie and you have some epilepsy issues--skip this part. Just skip it. I don’t personally have it, but like...they went kind of extra in this part.
Tumblr media
Now unlike the show, this movie has like...no apology for Dr Marcoh. Freakin stabbed him through the chest and was like “I don’t care if it means we can’t have the original FMA ending I freakin hate this guy” and you know...good on you, movie. Dr Marcoh was a really bad person. Thank you for not even attempting to justify this godawful man.
This crazy ass fanfiction movie.
Anyway, Shou directs Ed to look 10 feet up to get the rest of that juicy content. That Juicy FMA DLC that was within eye distance this entire time but youknow...cropped offscreen so it just didn’t exist.
Tumblr media
Can’t believe this wasn’t the FIRST THING you’d notice when coming into this room, since Ed has been hardwired for red stones for like 10+ years. But youknow.
Anyways, we’re getting a ton of visual elements from FMA, just checking off that check list here in the last 1/3 of the movie. But wait, it gets weirder.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
What I love about this is that Shou tells us all of this stuff because I guess Ed asked for Philosopher stones once, and even Shou is like...heyyy I figured it out! But like...hell would anyone even want to do this though?
Because that’s what happens when you have Shou freakin Tucker reveal the big master plan when he is not the big master. Like this explains nothing about Father, about Ed’s Dad, about the homunculi, about the corpses in the ceiling, like there’s just no explanation, other than just –“hey! Look at this atrocity I found just now!”
There is actually a horror element to that, where you don’t need to explain everything if you’re doing horror. If this were a horror movie, this would probably...be fine. You could have a fully explained movie by just saying “they turned POW camp people into rocks and now the zombies are here!” and that would be fine.
But it’s just...that isn’t this movie. I had so many expectations. And honestly...I expected way too much from 1.5 hours of content.
Tumblr media
So Shou pulls a gun on Ed, which makes sense. Ed is lookin to make stones, and if stones are made out of people—then it’s time to kill Ed. First thing that make sense in this movie, but I don’t know if it makes sense coming from Shou freakin Tucker who made it seem like he just wanted to kill Ed because Ed got him arrested that one time.
It may have been just the translation on my end but like...Shou’s reason for pulling a gun out here was a little nonsense. But Shou himself is already a little nonsense anyway.
Tumblr media
So we say goodbye, for the last time, being honest—he’s fully dead—he’s not coming back—to Shou Freakin Tucker. You were a mess Shou. I won’t miss you.
And if I forgot that this guy comes back, I fully apologize ahead of time, but I am 99% positive that I remembered that this guy never comes back.
(He might come back.)
Tumblr media
And then Lust is like “Hakuro why did you do that? Like what are you even doing???”
And everyone else is like “Oh, the General. Of course. Why didn’t I uhhh….see that coming?”
Because they had to condense a whole bunch of corrupt Generals for this movie into one character, and so I guess Hakuro took it for the team?
Also these guys are here.
Tumblr media
Just every single person standing in this room is pretty confused, as you can imagine. No one really expects to open up Volume 2 of FMA and it’s accidentally printed the last page of the entire series.
Anyway, that’s all for this 15 minutes (It was actually a little short 15 because there was ton of caps) I’m very tired because I did this workout routine with bro that was like 300 squats and I don’t know what day it is. I wrote “update blog” in my bullet journal (because it’s January, so I’m bullet journaling) so I’m just gonna do that because I want to use this green sparkly jelly pen and cross off all of today. Mm. Satisfying.

Masterfully done!
like a Greek Tragedy... an Operatic Death
This episode!!!.. even the drumming as Shaoshang tries to leave the manor, but most especially... from the moment they arrived to the banquet... the set, the lighting, the colours, the music score, the aural mood that greatly heightens the viewers emotions, the body movements... GLORIOUSLY SUBLIME!!!
Even the menacing laugh as he slowly walks towards Ling Yi... the syllable by syllable - clearly enunciated name, the crunch as the sword penetrates the flesh and the ‘schwing’ of the sword as it slices Ling Yi’s neck, the bodily attitude, the blurring and focusing again, the slow motion as he lets go of the Marquis’s head...  Devastatingly beautiful!
So unhinged, it’s perfect!
and at the end, a brief moment of disbelief and then, a cathartic release of emotion. It’s done! The slightest flash of joy immediately extinguished with sadness and grief. Unbridled tears come. The blood, tears, snot, saliva... it’s not pretty, but somehow very necessary!* It’s like being brought to a journey of complex emotions while the heart is being ripped out and at the same time awestruck as you watch.
*Apparently this was Wu Lei’s sugestion, don’t know if it’s true. Too lazy to look it up.
Tumblr media
At certain angles, his face looks gaunt, immaciated, skeletal even. Here he looks deranged... immaculately put together, not a hair out of place, controlled... but he looks deranged nevertheless.
I don’t know if this is by design... after all the carnage, he is still put together, just a few strands of hair out of place, a few rips on the clothes. I like the disparity of somehow still immaculate but with blood spatter everywhere.
Tumblr media
And can I just say, A’Fei and A’Qi’s sacrifice are no less than anybody elses! Such devotion! Such loyalty! I love them! I was bawlin’ when he told them, “Please stay alive.”  I’ve wondered if they knew for years who he really was, but that might have been too risky. I’m inclined to think that they didn’t until around Shaoshang knew or just slightly before/after. Judging from the Third Prince’s reaction when Shaoshang revealed to the court that he was Huo Chongs son, I don’t think he knew either.
A number times** I have watched this and still as impactful as the first time  when it was released back in mid(ish) August. Episode 48 was... just... firecrackers blowing up in my head!!!!... The freakin dramagods delivered!!! I was awestruck and still am after rewatching.
**I watch episodes on different websites. It gives me the option of different subtittles because some of the dialogues are interpreted so differently, some actually changes the narrative! By and by, I think subs on Viki gives more information especially on traditions, social ranks, what those ranks mean, refers to what litterature, colloquialisms, etc., etc. Little details that we would otherwise miss when only refering to the subs on other websites.

lily watches fma:b, eps. 42-47
In which the Briggs arc goes out with a bang, and I have flashbacks to the “Day of Black Sun” from Avatar: the Last Airbender.
Okay, Al is basically still May's age on the inside, lol. i love those two.
hawkeye reduced to serving tea for Bradley makes me so damn mad.
but bradley is in love with his (human) wife so there’s that.
kimblee double-crossed the drachma dudes? how completely in character.
one of the chimeras betrays Scar's group and brings in Envy. I was hoping he'd be relevant again!! turns out it was a trap and the chimera isn't actually evil again.
so envy uses the philosopher's stone to power his shapeshifting?? sure looks like it.
apparently marcoh has been mixing alkahestry into his work and it's awesome. the ice sculpture in a middle finger is a nice touch.
oh, no, may's hiding out doing action at a distance and envy has no clue. GO TEAM.
okay, marcoh denatures envy down to a little bug form which is simultaneously cute and disturbing. Yoki messes with it at his peril. I love how envy accidentally takes the wrong hostage if he wants people to care about his victim's fate.  
Scar is inspired by Miles to change Amestris from the inside instead of just killing people, so... that's good, I guess?
scar gives may envy in a jar and tells her go home, which seems LIKE SUCH A BAD IDEA ON SO MANY LEVELS
(like, I get that they did this so May could save her clan--which clearly hit of Scar's buttons--does no one even bother to think this through...?)
(the last time an emperor tried to get immortality was Xerxes and THAT worked out so well, so... *cue 'The Genocide Song' from Trigun*)
Anyway, I predict this will not end well.
Meanwhile, one of Greed's chimera buddies, Bido, survived, and learns that the military is searching for Izumi and Sig, but they're on the lam. He follows them back to base when he realizes they're from Bradley; he wants revenge for Wrath killing his boss.
(i love u bido you adorable little rat.)
(also, the fact that the original!Greed was like, "fuck u, I make my own rules" and ran away from Father's schemes with his misfit friends just warms my heart.)
There are only three rules for state alchemists: "don't interfere with the military,""don't make people," and "don't make gold",LOL.
It's so funny to me that the gold thing is included, even though I don't understand how you can MAKE gold with alchemy if gold is a single independent element and you are bound by the laws of equivalent exchange. but whatever, it's still really freakin' funny to me that they don't want State Alchemists fucking up the economy with their magic chemistry powers.
anyway, turns out they don't also want people growing their own armies in the basement - that's what THEY'RE DOING. quoth olivier: fuck.
(fun fact: an RPG character of mine playing a necromancer in a urban fantasy setting did EXACTLY THIS and it was awesome)
somehow, al and winry get to liore (again, DISTANCE? Time??) and "Mr. Ho" is working for Rose's food stand.
And he's all, "oh, I heard about how you lost your body, lol" and then...literally walks off.
(the sad thing is that Hohenheim is literally NOT the worst father in this show - that award goes to Shou Tucker.)
Bido discovers the Zombie Meat Locker, then runs into Greedling... who doesn't remember him until AFTER he stabs him, sob. rip bido.
Winry takes a bath, because fanservice, and she and Rose talk... and it does not pass the Bechdel test, sigh.
there's a "Banks Bank" in Briggs, lol
I wish I could get my glasses to do the opacity thing on command.
Ling yells at Greed for being a jerk and Greed decides to try and kill Wrath because that worked SO WELL last time...(at least he managed to shield from Bradley's signature move this time)
The Armstrong patriarch makes Olivier and Alex fight over who gets to be head of the family, lol. Then he just walks out and starts acting like Olivier won the fight, which she does.
turns out it's to keep the military from taking them all hostage for Olivier's good behavior. She's really good at this.
Envy tricks May into going back to Central, sigh.
Ling regains control of his body long enough to run into Ed and explain before Greed takes over again
they're really laying out the whole "Seven deadly sins as a personal flaw" thing on thick, aren't they?
Greed just wants to be left alone, but agrees to team up if Ed works for him, lol.
Izumi proudly declaring herself to be a housewife as she kicks ass gives me life
the phone chain here is pretty impressive, although grumman loses major points for sexually harassing Rebecca
apparently, Father has to wait for the stars/planets/sun to align in order to do his Evil Alchemy - it's referred to as "the Promised Day" and I'm having flashbacks to the "Day of Black Sun" from Avatar: The Last Airbender (though I think it's supposed to be more like Sozin's comet?).
TIME SKIP! It's spring in Resembool for the sheep festival. Winry is smuggled home and finds Ed in her bedroom - right as she's about to undress. Hijinks ensue.
anyway, Ed and Greed are hanging with Pinako. Ed gets his automail serviced and Winry ups the stakes by refusing to run away in case things go wrong.
she is specifically ordered to stay at home and bake a pie while the men go out to battle, sigh.
meanwhile, greed approves of winry's desire to "have it all" (i.e, victory against Father AND Ed and Al getting their bodies back on the Promised Day) and Ed is Not Amused.
(i love greed so much, he is definitely the #BestHomunculus in this version.)
Scar has been gathering the Ishvalans to help save Amestris and thereby win acceptance back
Grumman calling the Fuhrer "Bradley-chan" is hilarious, full stop.
Al's body keeps calling his spirit back but I'm not sure why it's only been a problem recently, given the gap between its loss and the present day.
we're now up to the "day before the promised day" which means that from now until the end (ep. 64) is likely to take place in 48 hours (plus whatever resolution awaits at the end in 64). yowza.
unfortunately, bradley appears to be on to Team Good's elaborate plan, but it's unclear if Team Good wants it that way or not.
okay, it’s intentional, they blew up the train, but I'm pretty sure Bradley's not dead
(why is grumman narrating the "previously on" intro, tho)
The first thing Ed does when he sees Hohenheim is punch him in the face, #bless.
Hohenheim offers to use his stone to bring back his sons' bodies... which means he COULD have fixed Izumi earlier, but didn't. fuck you, hohenheim.
okay, so it really is "the Day of Black Sun after all" - WHY DOES AN ECLIPSE MAKE ALCHEMY WORK BETTER, PLEASE EXPLAIN.
(he does not explain)
hohenheim asks if ed will help with the plan, lol, what exactly is the plan here, very cryptic of u
I can't believe Pinako asked Ed to tell Hohenheim Trisha's last words. Like, that was her job. She TALKED TO HIM HERSELF EARLIER IN THE SHOW. WHy the fuck did she make ED do it?
hohenheim cries when he learns that trisha said "sorry, I couldn't keep my promise. I'm dying first." AS WELL HE SHOULD, THE FUCKER.
ed buys red cloth and uses it to make his flamel jacket again I'M HOWLING
Al pops out of the bushes unexpectedly and Ling takes over Greed shouting about how his homunculus sense is tingling... I hope Greed doesn't die, but I'm not holding my breath
ed wins by knocking out all the lights, extinguishing the shadows... because pride can only exist in with some light, not full dark? I don't get why shadows work but not dark, despite greed specifically saying “you can’t have shadows without light”. DARK IS DARK, isn’t it?
grumman goes to look for bradley's body,but it's unclear if he's using his allies as a means to take over the country later or if that’s miles’ paranoia
GREED AND LING WORK TOGETHER TO FIGHT GLUTTONY AWWW YEAH
AND THEN LAN FAN SHOWS UP WITH HER BADASS NEW ARM AND SAVES THEM BOTH
(way to level up, Lan Fan!!)

Hi darling!💕
I absolutely adore Vocaloid, too!
Just as much as Utau and Utaite!
Favorite Vocaloid?
Hmm, I really don't have an absolute favorite, but I especially love Rin, Fukase, XingChen and Ling!
Favorite song?
Well, just like before, I really can't pick a favorite, I love so many!
Especially songs like Happy Halloween, Ura omote Lovers, Carnival and anything from Masa! (I know kinda creepy jshsjsh but I don't necessarily like the lyrics, but rather the fast paced beat and the bass🎶)
Kasane Teto?
I friggin' LOOOVE her, she's like the definition of cute!!
Have you heard her cover of "Carnival"? It's 👌👌👌👌👌👌

Okay, I've just rewatched the "I'll Make A Man Out Of You" sequence and dammit, I always get a lump in my throat and happy tears screaming down my face when Mulan is retrieving/retrieves the arrow and then becomes a great soldier and inspires everyone else to become great too. Mulan is the most badass Disney Princess ever!
That is a big turning point in the movie, and not just because of Mulan proving her worth. St that point, Mulan was essentially given a dishonorable discharge. If she left, then she’d have accomplished her goal. SHe’d have saved her father’s life, she had an excuse to go home, and would have avoided the war. But this is where it goes from ‘Mulan wants to save her father’ to ‘Mulan wants to see herself as worthwhile’. If she did leave, it would be in dishonor. She would look in the mirror and just feel the same shame and disappointment that she dod during ‘Reflection’. That is the moment where she decides that no, she is NOT going to just walk away. She’s not going to be a disgrace. She finally figures out the trick behind the arrow retrieval, and for once in her life, accomplishes something. She not only inspired herself and proved her worth to Shang, but she also proved it to the entire damn army and THEY became inspired by her. Ling and Yao went form bullies to her best friends along with Chan-Po. And they convey all of that with only the animaiton to tell us all of that due to the song, and they NAILED IT. It a beautiful moment of Mulan finally beginning to find her self-worth and is why I freakin’ love this movie.

@ask-terracotta-jade @askpenwright @miss-sheepy
OOOO OKAY.  EXCITED YOU GUYS WANNA HEAR :D
Anyways!! Meet Flea! She is my werewolf druid :D (Flea’s not her real name btw, her friend gave her that name)
Tumblr media
Since my bf is our DM, he let me use her as a werewolf with some modifications, mainly she’s not so resistant to....well, everything.  Shit still hurts.  She’s what is known as a Moon-touched werewolf, so she’s born into lycanthropy.  They can have humanoid forms and stuff but mainly they stay like big woofs :D Moon-cursed are the usual werewolves people know about and the freakin indestructible ones lol
Session 0 was mainly a roleplay chat in Discord, Flea tried to pass herself as a longtooth shifter but clearly failed due to some bad rolls.  She was travelling with my friend’s dragonborn, Vasira, before they met up with my bf’s PC, Viktor the Kobold, and @askscribbly​‘s goblin, Popper.  Viktor’s kind of like... a party member NPC that does more lol.  We just wanted my bf to join the fun ok and Viktor is a delight.  
Viktor mentions a problem in the nearby town of Blackwood with him looking into another incident dealing with a wife’s husband missing, who turns up dead on the road with a note in his pocket from the brother in Blackwood.  The four decide to group up and see the problem through since why not, they’re all going there anyways.
Session 1 starts off with them entering Blackwood, the four directly heading to the tavern.  Flea’s allowed to have a normal wolf form that doesn’t count as Wildshape, so she’s in that because... well, a normal wolf is less terrifying than a fricken werewolf and everyone else in the party minus Vasira are kind of races that get kicked around.  They enter the tavern: Popper instantly looks around and sees a hooded figure at a table doing card tricks, so he’s gonna go look over there, Vasira went to the bar to speak to the tavern owner, Fritz.  
And Flea? For technically the first rolled action she does in the live campaign?
She goes and begs for table scraps.  Had to roll for performance, which she has no bonus modifier in.
AND SHE GOT A 19.  SHE GOT THAT TABLE SCRAPS AND IS THE BEST DAMN WOLF EVER.  GODDAMN HILARIOUS.  These people are fucking enamoured with Flea in her wolf form.  
Viktor comes over and apologizes for ‘his dog’ and gets some info on how there’s no animals nearby.  Vasira learns about dead bodies missing and Popper... well, Popper made a friend. Vasira rents two rooms for the night and it was decided it would be Viktor and Vasira in one room and Flea and Popper in the other.  Flea has the cantrip to speak to animals, so she begins to perform that ritual so she can speak to Popper’s mount, a mastiff named Cecilia.
Was kind of a weird...philosophical session with the dog.  Flea doesn’t really know if she gained anything out of it, but she opened up to the dog because no one else can speak to the dog but Cecilia mentioned to keep what she said a secret haha.  Whew.  Definitely helped Flea feel less strict around Popper, but she was still on edge. Vasira and Viktor are having a helluva powerful talk downstairs and Popper was invited to the cloaked figure’s room.  TBH, ask @askscribbly​ about Popper and his adventures, I’m sure they’d love to expand LOL.  
BUT SUDDENLY.  SOMETHING CRASHES IN AND GRABS A HALF-LING.  EVERYONE (minus Flea) HEARS THIS, INCLUDING THE DOG, SO FLEA’S ALERTED AND THEY GIVE CHASE.
Turns out to be a fucking scarecrow.  A SCARECROW.  AND THUS OUR FIRST BATTLE BEGINSSSS.
Vasira rages, Viktor attacks and has pack tactics, Flea tries primal savagery but nothin’ happening.  Physical attacks doing shit.  Flea almost gets knocked unconscious but survives with 1 HP, she’s pissed at this thing now. AND POPPER, DEAR LOVELY POPPER, HEALS HER.  AND SHE.  RIPS THAT FUCKING THING.  TO SHREDS.  LIKE A CHEW TOY.  And thus Flea got the first kill of the night.
There ends up being a letter tucked away and while Flea can read the script of the name signed at the end, Vasira can actually read Elvish, so they figure out it’s Popper’s friend, who’s name is Saelithia.  They approach her with questions and got confirmation it was written by her, so we went to her friend’s house who was named in the letter.  Popper found a journal nearly ellibile minus four entries and how a strange discus object was connected to Tom (the friend).
Next they headed to the tree where Tom was hung, Flea was able to use detect magic to see a conjuration chain and undead chain across the hole of the tree.  She stuck her paw in and it fucking hurt.  Viktor and Popper hit them too and it hurt as well.  Nobody learns a lesson and Vasira severely disappointed derg-mom.
They go back to Saelithia with the journal and she returns with them to the tree, but kind of stuck so they went to go check out the two other problems: missing bodies and missing wildlife.
They head to the cemetery, fucking undead attack and Vasira destroys them with firebreath.  Vasira finds a monastery in the graveyard and we find this gross and awful mass of flesh and shit causing the undead shit.  Popper gets knocked out but Flea returns the favor and heals the dude. Viktor kills it because he’s bad ass and I love him.
Afterwards they go to look what’s causing the wildlife to go missing, which turns out to be a Maw Demon.  OOF. Viktor and Vasira are doing close-range, while Popper and Flea stay back and do long range. Popper gets the final blow with sacred flame.  Our heroes are worn out and go back to the tree, finding the chains broken and the hole open.
...But before anyone could say they should rest, Flea charges in (probably high on the excitement) with Viktor chasing after her.  Vasira and Popper just kind of... stare off in disbelief  Vasira’s owner even drew it lol.
Tumblr media
And that’s where session 1 ended :D We got our next session next week and I’M PUMPED AHHH.
