-Any leads on Gabriel? -Oh, right. Well... he's definitely not in the shop. ... It's just Aziraphale and his grumpy friend, Mr. Crowley.

box- youve got me interested in trigun but alas i have no idea what it is, pls help me understand

Oh god, my sincerest apologies ^^;;;

Trigun is a space Western and a thinly veiled allegory. It’s about a pair of twins, Knives Georg and Belts Georg, who are ideological opposites (except when they aren’t; they’re both extremists). This would be fine, except they are also insanely powerful interdimensional biological generators/space angels, making their conflict one between essentially minor gods. So they make their trauma Everybody’s Problem. One of them (Knives Georg) has set himself up as a cult leader with the intent of obliterating the human race because humans keep other, less independent, interdimensional biological generators/space angels captive as tools somewhere between Star Trek replicators and batteries. He gives this several goes, first by sabotaging humanity’s fleet of spaceships and crashing everyone onto a barren planet without resources in a painfully obvious reference to the expulsion from Eden/fall from Heaven, then by making his brother blow up a city, and lastly by stealing as many of the dependent generator angels as he can and trying to kill humanity via depravation and war crimes. His brother (Belts Georg) is a pacifist gunman who has internalized his trauma differently and does not want to obliterate humanity. In fact, he wants to stop his brother doing that, so he makes multiple badly-planned attempts to end the conflict until one of them sticks. He also lives on the run as a reviled, hated outlaw and a legend after Knives Georg made him blow up a city. The story is one long, intense interrogation of pacifism as an ideal, the consequences of taking or sparing lives, and answers the age-old questions: if nuclear bombs were sentient and afraid of exploding, could/would they love us? And: what would a traumatized angel do with a gun?

Come for the aesthetic, stay for the blatant biblical references and the gut-wrenching tragedy.

And yes, there are, in fact, three guns. One’s a species of Colt (.45 Long Colt?? I do not remember off the top of my head) or the bastard offspring of a Colt and a cinder block, the other is a prosthetic arm, and the last one is a flesh arm that’s actually a biblically inaccurate angelic energy-missile launcher. (OR they are two matching Colts and a spiritual bazooka with a bonus prosthetic arm gun. Depends on the version. As of now, Stampede (2023) only has two guns. The third is much anticipated.)

There are three versions of the story, too. The manga (personally my canon of choice, explains nothing and yeets events at you, incomprehensible fight scenes, emotionally devastating in ways the other two cannot even begin to touch), the 1998 anime (very good, made while the manga was still being written, has its own thing going on, suffers terribly from 1990s anime-itis aka bizarre sexism), and the 2023 anime (very good, mix-and-match canon that turns the timeline into pretzels, suffers from 12-episodes-long-itis with too much happening and not enough time to explore things).

#Stampede also has the MOST GLARING nephilim subplot #makin’ artificial space angel/human children #very normal very not a reference to anything nope #Box attempts Trigun

Cosmic Chaos: A skyduo space apocalypse harbinger AU!

A human-turned-entitity and an entity-turned-human are given the gargantuan task of leaving the sentient Universe in ruins to prepare for Its approaching death. My beloved and incredibly not thought through AU with Grian and Pearl from September! I missed drawing them. If you have ideas or questions for this AU please feel free to leave something in my inbox! I am not great at answering questions (worse now I'm in uni) but I’ll try my best to reply. [P.S: extra thoughts in the og tags; uncropped and extra drawings on my twitter somewhere.]

#skyduo #hermitcraft #hermitcraft AU #grian #pearl is Here I am not tagging this with her! /lh #I think they'd be called angels of the rapture. goes pretty hard #omega shoutout to moonstruck by sixteenthdays for giving me the vibes of incomprehensible galaxy horror #and omega omega shoutout to the very obscure 5 y/o album by KNGFSHR for being in my head rent free with its concepts #I am bad at drawing big non human horror but please imagine the image of grian as a colossal cosmic being of terror and destruction! #as well as Pearl becoming so warped by her constant use of abilities gifted to her that she can barely been seen as human! #art out the oven #every day I realise I draw grian and myself way too similarly. every day I do not mind #tw space #cosmic harbingers AU

okay wait… how big are the angels then?? i always imagined them human size but are they ? not? are the archangels bigger than the other angels? are they beefier or just taller? what’s their bone density like (because they’re able to fly—or does their power of flight come from their divinity)? are they more fragile because of their bone density or are they stronger because they’re angels? i have never been so curious about angel proportions in my life

this is stated pretty directly in A&M but all the angels tall! Not excessively though

I imagine them to be about 6.5 feet (....?) so they're not huge but they tower a lot next to ancient humans in particular. Archangels are the same size as other angels, though Uriel is especially tall, I think, at maybe.... 7.4 feet? Michael is probably nearly 7 feet; Michael, though, is Very beefy so he's quite wide. (And in my last post, it's a combination of being wide and wearing bulky armor that gets him stuck)

I imagine it's mostly divinity that makes them fly, but I do think their bones and organs are sort of weird in general. In a way, less complicated; they're missing some organs that humans have. I don't think they have kidneys, for example, and I think they have a tiny liver. I think their stomachs are larger (and tougher; they can digest absolutely anything). I think their big/small intestines work differently and are also smaller. I imagine their bones are much, much, thinner but stronger because.... well, divinity.

thank you for the ask :>

#If I could draw I'd make a little anatomical diagram because I think it's fun to speculate #canonically i'll say its mostly just Magic that makes their bodies work but I really enjoy speculating about their organs because idk it's #they have a LOT more empty space inside themselves than humans do in my head #mostly becaue they don't have waste products like urine and etc #well maybe it's not empty and they have some flowers hanging out inside them #cutting open an angel so i can take out the weeds bothering him #mine #ask

Hi! Anon that wrote the huge ask about the yandere Night Lord (and implied yandere Salamander) scenario (the one with the in between pink coloured words), Ive been having thoughts about it again. And you know, the whole Knight fighting a Dragon dynamic becomes really funny when you think about how narrative-wise, all space marines are dragons.

A space marines, just like dragons. Are big huge monstercreatures who (in most cases) randomly arrive into a settlement of innocent people and wreak havoc all over the place (destroying cities, killing innocents, probably stealing some stuff if its a xenos settlement, and so on and so forth). They’re powerful, clever, and very hard to kill. You must kill them nonetheless. But the only difference between them and dragons is that space marines are, theoretically, on your side. They’re humanised enough for you to overlook the atrocities they commit. They’re doing this because it will help out humanity in the long term, they’re doing this because their primarch said so, they’re doing this because they think its right. But in the end it all boils down to how they have no other option, or a better way of phrasing it: its all that they can do. They’re made to kill. They’ve been irreparably transformed into something horrible and theres no going back from that, and its not like they had any choice in the matter either. You could even say that this mirrors the trope of someone’s greed and ego being the cause of a dragon to appear in a story (that someone in question being The Emperor)

So i find it kind of funny that in this scenario the Salamander sees himself as a knight. Like babe! You’re no different from any other space marine!! The fact that his legion interacts with people more doesn’t change who he is. He has just convinced himself that what he is, is noble. Like he’s some sort of symbol of hope and strength instead of being a walking talking murder weapon. He’s a dragon thats been brought up to think his scales are chainmail and that his claws are swords, that he’s totally not like his traitorous cousins, that he’s humanity’s loyal house dog instead of a fire breathing beast chained to a leash.

Yes he is fighting to save you, yes he loves you more than words could ever express. But to an outsiders perspective this isn’t a brave hero battling a monster to save his beloved, its two serpents fighting over the most sparkling jewel in a treasure hoard

I vehemently adore all of this. Particularly the part about how they think of themselves; As from their view of the story, they're the hero, but another might view them as the villain. Forgive my unfiltered, unrevised ramblings.

It reminds me of a moment from (I believe it was Unremembered Empire? forgive me if I'm wrong) where the Night Lords are waging war on Macragge and the civilians are seeing other Astartes besides the Ultramarines in action for the first time and realizing that, holy shit, these guys are actually horrifying. And looking at their 'protectors' in a whole new light. The Ultramarines proclaim they're different because they choose to be, but we've seen before that even the friendliest of space marines can change their tune when they feel it appropriate.

But back on topic. Salamanders.

Something relevant would be that even their beloved might possibly view them as that brave hero, at first. But as time goes on, they might see cracks in that visage and realize that the man guarding them is more beast than man, holding back a near animalistic desire for carnage. We know that even the most loving of Salamander is more than capable of being an emotionless killer when he desires it. Hell, you could even say it's a core part of them; It's not like you can muzzle a dragon. You can at best point them in the direction you want them to go.

Your Salamander might spare you some of the goriest of details, or the darkest parts of him, but you can see the tail wrapped around you, and how you're kept so close not only because of your safety, but also because he sees you as his. You're the treasure he's found, you're the jewel that rests on top of a pile of gold, and you're not going anywhere. He always looks at you(his treasure) fondly, but there's a possessiveness in his eyes that only gets worse over time.

Other Salamanders are seen as threats and thieves if they get too close. He's the hero of this story, duty bound to protect you even if he has to get his hands bloody. It's all for a purpose, therefor he's leagues different than the Night Lords that act as his chapter's opposite.

If you ever have to do your job or duty, and interact with other Salamanders or other members of humanity he's always right there; Guarding his treasure. And while he might technically be on a leash, it's extremely taught.

#Misty's book club #can you tell i really like the symbolism of Astartes being referred to as animals? #being beasts bred for a purpose with little outside of it? free will having been taken? even while free their minds changed irreparably? #even if they're angels and above humanity you can't deny that their creation makes them only useful for one purpose and denies them a life #outside of it. even if they manage to break the leash the collar still stays with them forever #space marine x reader #warhammer 40k x reader #the yandere salamander saga

Angel: After such ardent efforts to dive as deeply as technologically possible at the time and later, during the Space Race, humanity suddenly stopped trying to reach deeper... Why is that?

Human: *haunted 1000 yard stare

Angel: *scribbles conclusion on parchment 'clearly they encountered things terrifying enough to make them stop'

Human: 'fucking capitalism'

hey, it's the anon who asked about jkr. I figured it was like that, but my brain made me need to check. Thank you for answering! i understand what you said about not supporting her, but not letting her take away the good parts of the community. I hope it was clear that i was curious and i mean no shade whatsoever /gen but i realize i may not have worded things well so i wanted to clarify just in case it came across wrong. thank you! (you don't need to answer this, i just wanted to say)

Hey don't worry at all anon maggot!! I'm so so glad that you asked me, and like I said on that post, I understand entirely why you needed to. I feel the same way all the time with creators that I don't know. Well, I'm more of a chaos demon and not a creator here, but the point stands.

And you didn't word anything wrong at all! It was a valid question, and an important one, and you were very polite about it.

Thank you for asking, I'm happy that I was able to help you feel more at ease. Fuck JKR and transphobes. Take all the love. We need more safe spaces, and I hope I can create one. I hope I have.

Ask whatever you feel like, maggots, really. I'll answer the best I can. I mean, as the Good Omens Mascot, and as someone who loves Crowley to death... Ask questions. Keep asking questions. And also suggestions. For Starmaker, keep asking questions, and know that the suggestion box is open.

My favorite (and sadly completely non existant in fandom) characterization of Hunk and Lance is that they are completely Normal™ people except there's also something clearly wrong with them but the rest are either too alien(Coran and Allura), too socially reclusive(Pidge and Keith), or just dont interact with them enough(Shiro) to notice

#Listen Hunk thinks it's completely ok to read someone else's diary #And Lance saw a presumed dead guy being alive a big fuck off lion and an honest to god actual space princess and went #'Huh. Neat! Gonna check it all out!' #I'll even say these 2 are driven most by curiosity just for the sake of curiosity about people #Lance will be like: this is my new friend i cant pronounce their name in human tongue so they allowed me to call them Steve #and Steve is a fucking biblical accurate angel #And then he disappears with steve and Hunk's like 'dont worry guys i have put a tracer on him we'll find him soon ☺️' #Allura: do... do humans do that? Put tracers on each other? #Hunk: it's with permission and yeah best friends do!! #Keith and Pidge who have never been in a friend group that wasnt immediate family before: i mean that sounds wrong #But i dont know enough about friends to dispute it #Shiro who has been dissocciating for an hour and did not hear a single thing: whatever hunk said it's probably right #lance voltron #vld lance #lance mcclain #hunk voltron #hunk vld #hunk garrett #voltron #voltron legendary defender #empty thoughts #takashi shirogane #katie holt #keith kogane #keith voltron #vld keith #allura vld #allura voltron
