The fact that all Gwen knows about her variants in other universes is that they're dead is so sad. Like imagine you want to know what happens to you in other dimensions and it turns out that wherever you look you mean nothing, you're so unimportant that there's no bigger role for you other than dying.

And I've seen you guys pointing this out, where she's looking at what looks like her own death and even if it's not this is not just a "love interest" Gwen, this is a superhero who is supposed to mean something, but she doesn't. She's only here to die. And so far this (our) Gwen doesn't have any reason to believe that she won't die very soon just like other Gwens.

I think that one of the main reasons why she's rejecting Miles is not just her trauma and all shit she's been through and the fear of dying like other Gwens when they're involved with Spider-Man, but also because if they start something and she dies this will hurt him too.

It's easy to say "canon events aren't true she shouldn't believe in that" but this isn't just a regular risk, this is her life we're talking about.

#my baby just wanted to stay alive #her death just casually appeared above her head and she's expected to continue the conversation normally #and it doesn't look like she died peacefully at all look at her #spider man across the spider verse #Spiderverse #across the spiderverse #gwen stacy #spider woman #spider gwen #ghost spider #to anyone who says that this is kravens last hunt he injured peter badly in that comic almost killed him #but that doesn't mean that she won't die either in hands of kraven or anybody else #or that this is just one canon event she has more but as far as she knows she'll die if she touches spider man or just die like that #but I'm not sure if it's even kravens last hunt pic she doesn't look well here either way #to me it looks like she's hurt here I didn't think about other possibilities until y'all said it could be but it's sus i think she's hurt

Me whenever the Danny Phantom series mentions Humans dying or Ghosts dying:

#DSD577 #Danny Phantom #meme #I never got why dying was a big deal in the series to be completely honest #wouldn't dying mean becoming a ghost? #shouldn't have the whole plot in Ep 28/29 have the spirits that died in it? #not comfortable with this implying certain spirits go to a better place #what about the Dairy King? he didn't seem like an awful dude... #WTF was going on in Ep 36 anyway? #Then theres the weird aspect that ghosts can die #Ep 8 flat out stated it #and Ep 16 tryed selling it as believable #like what was the point of being dead and being able to die? #was there another place worser then the GZ itself? #The series confuses me... #Also I like to remind y'all that Tucker Phantom is in the GZ #along with the other ghosts in that Ep

[frenchy-and-the-sea]

mmmmmmmm sad

i was really excited about my CoS game yesterday but a few of the players seem to be very fixated on getting to the next combat/room they can steal stuff from? and getting annoyed when my character expresses caution? I got interrupted once or twice while looking through some of the lore-related stuff or while trying to find an alternative means of doing something besides "charging right in." Like, not just the character taking off to do their own thing - the player interrupted me to tell the DM that we were going down a hallway. Like. Okay.

we were told this was going to be a roleplay/exploration/mystery heavy game and I'm feeling like that's only fine if it fits in the span of six minutes. And so now it feels like I'm the one making the problem.

#hush frenchy #i need a curse of strahd tag #it's not like we're going slow either. we had...three different combat scenarios in the last game? #and that was with our fighter avoiding one because he made friends with a dog #we've been clearing levels of this house like it's our job #so i guess i'm just kinda put out by the fact that my character expressing frustration with another for triggering a dangerous combat #was met with 'but did you die?' from the player #and like no! I didn't! but I did end up saving all of y'all because they were vulnerable to radiant!! #and because I burned a higher level scroll to maximize damage and take them out quicker!! #you thought losing points off of your strength was bad WITH all of that work? what if you didn't have a cleric!! #idk it just feels like it sucks more because i was so excited #i'm also the only one who isn't a cis dude besides the dm so it feels....idk. it feels bad

[beatx-mavie-archangelx]

Unpopular take?? I guess?

I don't think many people in this fandom understand how criminal organizations work.

If I had 1¢ everytime I read something along the lines of "Gashu is a horrible parent because he chose God/Asu-Naro over his kids" I'd be a very upset billionaire(hyperbole), because no?? He didn't??

That's not what makes him a horrible parent. That wasn't something he could actually choose. What makes him the founder of the Bad Dads Club is that he chose a kid over the other, which doesn't necessarily mean "I want Sei to die" but it still loosely translates into "I want Kai to survive." and this is not exactly a best dad behavior. THIS is what he could've avoided.

The choice wasn't between God and his kids, since, and I quote, "should you defy God... their blood will surely spill.". Ultimately, he could only choose how they would've died. So he chose the "safest" option, the one that gave one of the kids the chance of surviving, he chose God (being an empath, I can sense that he wasn't all that thrilled).

"b-but!! he could've still ran away!! 🥺" how? AS is everywhere in Japan. They'd be looking for him. He could change his looks, get fake documents, and try to escape abroad, sure, but again, how? Who do you think is making the fake documents? He's trapped.

Everyone in Asu-Naro is.

#i mean idk abt Asu-Naro but generally the mafia is known for melting kids in acid soo... #(that's one of the many reasons people shouldn't romanticize it but don't even get me started on that) #anyways #don't get this wrong I'm not trying to defend him #I'm just saying y'all are accusing him of the wrong crime #bro clearly didn't want to follow the willow god and clearly knew he wasn't doing the right thing following him #just look at him #this has been sitting in my drafts for ages because I didn't know how to word all of this #and I still firmly believe it doesn't make sense in actual English but oh well #yttd #your turn to die #gashu satou #kimi ga shine #kai satou #sei satou #sorry this post is way longer than it needed to be

hi Margin! idk if you're still doing those 3-sentence fics, but in case you are, here's a prompt suggestion: "dawn"

Ohohohohohohohoho YES >:)

(full disclosure this was sitting in my inbox for weeks because i couldn't figure out what to write but i did it today in math class so here you go)

He was stern, and cold, and dispassionate; a statue, they called him, beautiful and unfeeling and as pristinely white as marble, resistant to the colors of love and laughter- or at least, that's what they said.

She was beautiful too, but not in his opaque, colorless way- if he was a marble statue, she was a stained-glass window, full of light and warmth and color, and her soul was the dawn that shone through and cast her illuminating hues on the grey congregation of the soldiers around her.

And when he was with her- when the dawn of her smile graced the Captain, not grey and battered like his men but pristinely alabaster- he absorbed her color; the white and colorless turned brilliant shades of gold and green and blue, and the few blessed to witness this transfiguration swore that, for a moment, she could make their Captain look almost human.

#guys i swear paladin's not actually cold and unfeeling okay #it's just how most people perceive him #on top of his army conditioning he has the self-hatred that comes from knowing a time witch started an interdimensional war because #she got the hots for him #so my guy's retreated WAY into his shell like. 10 times more than the average link because of said time witch and her hots #he's gaslit himself into thinking that he needs to be emotionally stable (read: repressed) to be an effective captain #because otherwise he'll get too attached to his men and won't be able to move on from mourning them when they inevitably die #or worse- he'd get caught up in his emotions and unwittingly give cia an upper hand #in actuality his heart is too big for his body #but because of his self control (read: emotional repression) the only person who can coax him out of the prison of his own design is zelda #and lana and impa (and baby orpheus) to some extent #but mostly zelda #because they love each other <3 #i don't know why i felt the need to explain all this in the tags but i didn't want y'all to think i actually write him as cold and distant #that was EXTREMELY important for me to be clear about #margin writes #you ask margin babbles #my beloved hyrule warriors

[dimiclaudeblaigan]

the idea of three hopes dimivain is also so funny to me tho bc dimitri goes and recruits miklan and then miklan just gets back only to find out his brother and king are Very Close and he's just like "oh god. oh no". he knows exactly what he is going to be subjected to for the rest of his life.

#DCB Comments #your king is in a relationship with your brother what do you do. nothing exactly bc u can't; ur on faerghus probation #there is nothing you can do when they start kissing on the couch in front of u #u just have to accept that the king who gave u a new life is also kissing ur brother #bUT ALSO. all the happy family stuff THINK OF ALL THE HAPPY FAMILY STUFF #miklan saved by his eventual brother in law and being able to call the literal king his brother in law #and ALSO you have all the routes to consider. sb where miklan is left with his brother in law but his brother died #gw where miklan is alive and sylvain and dimitri are together #ag where sylvain and dimitri mourn losing him together #best option: ag au where he didn't fucking die #bc even if u consider gw well matthias died so here in this house we just consider the happiest option #which is AG: He Didn't Fucking Die #miklan going into dimi's office to report smth and he just stands there dead inside when he walks in on sylvain flirting with dimi #tell me there isn't room for shenanigans with this family TELL ME THERE ISN'T #you CAN'T because there is SO MUCH ROOM. it will be HEARTWARMING and it will be FUNNY #and ONE DAY matthias will go to dimitri and be like ''thank u for helping this family recover'' #AND miklan is going to be sylvain's best man at the wedding shut UP it's exactly what happens #dimivain in three hopes is absolute perfection for a lot of reasons but when u have to have miklan involved it's extra perfection #listen i warned y'all i woke up on the dimivain side of the bed (my cat was next to me maybe she woke up on the dimiclaude side) #this had nothing to do with the fic i was thinking of writing for months btw BUT that doesn't stop me from adding to my list of fics #also yes i am on the EDGE right now like i can tell i am going to sell my soul to gautier dimivain fam within the next few minutes #DCB Three Hopes Stuff

I mean

Now's as good a time as any to figure out my D&D character, I guess?

#don't look at the almost midnight o'clock thing #or the Church at 8:15 tomorrow thing #i speak #OKAY BUT!! LILY DOESN'T KNOW WHO SHE IS!!! SHE'S SPENT MOST OF HER LIFE TRYING TO KEEP BANDIT OUT OF TROUBLE!! #she doesn't remember life before him!!! #but now she's 18 and she's not sure the path bandit is on is the one she wants to be on!!! #the battle with the wolves!!! (this means nothing to y'all but i'm going feral) #bandit left her and their friend to save a cat #and it all worked out #but it probably scared her that he left #and scared her even more that she didn't follow. couldn't follow. she knew if she did their new friend would die (he almost did anyway) #and so for maybe the first time in their lives #lily didn't follow bandit into his shenanigans #and now she's really questioning who she is and who she wants to be #and who she doesn't want to be #and looking back there are so many things that make it work #even though i didn't know this was where i was going to go with this at all #her staying with dusty at the apothecary when bandit went to collect the reward #her leaving bandit at the inn to chase after the mysterious figure with dusty #(she hesitated then. hesitated to leave bandit. but she DID.) #idk that dusty will be the best influence here #but #ahhhhh screaming crying feral etc #months of writer's block and now my brain is ON #who let these dragons in the dungeon?

okay yeah doc cochran i get it now

#i am one (1) episode deep and yeah i would die for this man #calamity jane too i love her #i literally screamed when he came through the door in the beginning #pray for my girlfriend y'all i literally shouted told you so #because she didn't believe he'd be in the first episode and i was like gotta keep the faith #no but i am already loving this show and i need it all on dvd pronto #deadwood #doc cochran #brad dourif

JoJo and the dichotomy of fate vs choice

There's a recurring tension throughout the series surrounding to the conflicting ideas of destiny and free will and how they impact the story. Araki manages to walk the fine line between the two that's just really interesting to me and leaves a lot of room for interpretation on the part of the viewer.

On the one hand, we have characters who seem destined to experience certain loss, trauma, or pain. They're quite literally doomed by the narrative and any actions they make to try and change the course of fate either land them back in the same spot or have no effect. The most obvious examples of this being Oingo/Boingo, Hayato, and FF's fight with Kenzou. These are moments where the story is grabbing you by the shoulders and saying, "See nothing you do really matters!"

Though Araki doesn't just explore this concept in such literal ways throughout the story. We also see it in character arcs over a longer period of time. One could argue that George Joestar was destined to die in the carriage crash along with his wife and child, and that Dario saving their lives was only delaying the inevitable. Or that Jotaro or Bucciarati's deaths were destined to happen in spite of actions (either intentional or not) taken in an attempt to avoid that fate. This could very easily have taken a sharp turn into bleak nihilism. "We all have a role to fill and deviation from that path is forbidden." And yet it doesn't.

Because, you see, more than anything, what Araki really wants the viewer to believe in is the power of coincidence and the lack thereof. Fate may set the stage but at the end of the day what really acts as the catalyst is coincidence, and coincidence isn't always random. It can be influenced and swayed. Josuke and Koichi just happening to walk by the Nijimura house at the specific time they did leading to Koichi getting stand abilities was a matter of chance. Hayato using his intellect to make the decision to call Josuke to make sure he'd arrive in time to hear Kira's confession? That was a deliberate choice.

Time and time again we see characters using their sense of agency when it's most important and taking their destiny into their own hands. Bucciarati choosing to use the loss of his senses to his advantage in his fight with Secco. Josuke's refusal to leave Okuyasu behind leading to Okuyasu later saving his life. Emporio using Weather Report's stand disk to defeat Pucci. The pivotal moments within the story are generally but not always instances where the protagonist regains control of the narrative.

And yet, in spite of everything, all of this still begs the question, what is choice? At what point does free will end and fate begin? Were any of these the purposeful actions of characters or were these also preordained? More importantly, does it matter?

How you choose to view these scenarios is entirely up to you. Are you comforted by the idea that there is a set path to things or do you find it constrictive? Do you find the occurrence of coincidence to be just another facet of a binding fate or are you delighted by happenstance and its unexpected consequences? These are answers only you can find and they have applications that extend far beyond the realm of JoJo and their bizarre adventures.

I'm no ornithologist, but i feel like every chicken deserves a wide,open space with plenty of safe areas to move around in and play (mess around with puzzles,that sort of thing. they probably need a lot of mental stimulation too! ) and eat so they don't get over crowded, and safe spots to retreat to when they need to calm down or mate and roost/nest(i mean, i know chicken sex is probably weird like it is with most birds, but i feel like they would appreciate the privacy and safety. I've been around plenty of chickens. they're generally sensitive animals that deserve more respect.), or be quarantined if they've come down with something or have been injured. they seem to do much better that way,their quality of life seems to improve greatly in captivity when people practice better husbandry with them. of course, different variants of chickens have different needs I'm sure, but it's something I've observed often. birds deserve so much better than to have their intelligence be undermined and be treated like shit,which is unfortunately rather common in today's world.

#text #idk man i just really fucking love birds. i love them even if they hurt me. they probably don't understand #besides they usually only hurt people if you accidentally startle them or if it's how they play or they're not socialized properly #they need to be more accustomed to people and physical affection #and sometimes animals just weren't meant to be petted or hugged or kissed and we should respect their boundries. #how would you like it if a big scary weird looking thing did that to you? you probably would be just as freaked out. #imagine being in their shoes. i would be fucking terrified if i were a bird or somd other nonhuman animal and a human touched me #I've been hurt like once or twice by q bird because they both didn't understand how sharp their talons are and how that hurts me #when they perch or hold my fingers. they don't do it on purpose lol #you know how lizards will grab onto your fingers but not exactly sit on you? that's what it's like. it's like he's shaking my hands. #there's my neighbor's bird kai and them there's little foot. #kai likes to hold my hands. #little foot like to perch on me. he's less rude but a bit more shy. kai REALLY likes me #sorry for the typos as always I'm still blind and have poor motor control so typing and reading is hard for me. whoops #long post #ramble #like why can't we all treat animals better and as the unique gifts from nature to be preserved and loved like they are? why not try better? #they deserve to be raised and die humanely and be protected in the wild from manmade natural disasters and just left to do their own thing. #be nice to nature or it won't be nice to you. you know what i mean? #do y'all ever cry thinking about animals. i do. a lot #they're so precious man. #no RB'S for this one because i feel like people would be weird or mean about this lol
