#i’ll sacrifice anything for it

[trashmakerarticle]

Jason: no tim, it’s not the same. I make dead jokes, you make death jokes

Tim: I am failing to see how that’s any different

Jason: I didn’t want to die Tim. I didn’t make plans that would result in my own death, but you do. You plan to die.

OKAY! Chatot rant in tags below! Read at your own discretion.

#okay starting from the beginning of where ppl usually dislike him. apple woods chapter. #he doesn’t give hero/partner the CHANCE to explain themselves despite them being relatively good recruits up until that point. #and that legit might be my only gripe with that chapter bc!!! stories need conflict! I LIKE the conflict in apple woods!!! #hero and partner being punished so something they didn’t do! #the misunderstanding! how team skull (Skuntank) actually outplays the main duo with a clever yet rotten trick. I LOVE that it segways into- #one of the more sweeter scenes of guild members looking out for eachother. I LIKE APPLE WOODS CONFLICT. #but chatot just. not giving them a chance. is so dumb. #I’d personally fix this by having a lil montage of hero/partner fucking up on jobs. A LOT. and chatot giving them a pass every time. #and let the perfect apple incident BE the one where he puts his foot down and doesn’t listen to them. bc he’d given them loads of chances. #and doesn’t want to hear any excuse. #but yeah. I legit dont mind him during that chapter except for that really stupid and frustrating moment. #NOW. CHAPTER 17. #UGGGGHHH WHERE DO I BEGIN #Him not believing hero and Partner about Grovyle and the future being in ruin? FINE. ACTUALLY GOOD. BC CHATOT WOULD BE SKEPTIC. #IT FITS HIS CHARACTER!! #BUT WHAT DOES SUCK. IS HIM GOING ‘Dusknoir isn’t the bad guy. he didn’t do anything wrong’ #WHEN HE LITERALLY KIDNAPPED HERO AND PARTNER RIGHT I N F R O N T OF HIM. #(​NO LITERALLY. HIS CHARACTER IS IN THE FRONT ROW WHEN IT HAPPENED.) #and him. having the GALL to tell hero and partner they must’ve been ‘seeing things’ and downplaying the HELL they went through. #despite them being missing for hours/days. his own guild recruits. and his angry sprite showing up. #like. I think that’s when I genuinely despised him. #that and him going ‘OH I BELIEVED YOU THE WHOLE TIME HEEHOO :)’ shit was so fucking annoying. #just playing it off as a joke the second the guild started to believe hero and partner. #IMAGINE IF HE W A S ACTUALLY TESTING THE GUILD’S TRUST. SHOWCASING HIM AS THE MORE RESPONSIBLE AND RESPECTFUL RIGHT HAND OF THE GUILD. #and yes. Brine cave he saves hero and partner. but at that point I just didn’t care anymore. #he fucked those two over so much. that I didn’t care what ‘valiant’ sacrifice he had. #and he grills Team Skull for what they did OFF SCREEN. they couldn’t even give us THAT. #<<< THAT or him outright saying sorry would’ve been nice. IKIK his ‘actions’ or whatever but. #eughh again this is all imo. I’m not trying to make people hate him or change their mind. #I’ll get into positives in the second post cause I’m running out of tags

Jon becoming KiTN in Winds (specifically) would actually be bad as far as themes go

#hot take of the day y’all 🌚 #idk if I’ll write about this more in depth one day but…… #jon is going through a traditional hero’s journey - perhaps almost very literally #he is currently at the lowest point of the journey which is where the hero faces his toughest mental and maybe physical battles #winds will be his innermost cave (like a gaze into the abyss) + ordeal step which have to happen before his reward (apotheosis and boon) #so unless grrm wants to paint him becoming kitn as his lowest point thematically which could mean jon knowingly usurps his siblings #-because let’s face it him being robb’s heir while valid still comes with A LOT of issues- #there’s just no way his ascension to the northern throne could thematically be good for anyone but most of all him #I tend to think that jon will be tempted -this will be his gazing into the abyss part instead of the usually accepted theory #that he just doesn’t do anything at all for the whole book- and that is what will create the most believable narrative tension in his arc #but he won’t go through with it and will ultimately choose to sacrifice himself AGAIN #pulling back from the abyss before it’s too late #so yeah his kitn prospects for winds don’t look very good….sorry to say guys :( #but if we talk about king of WINTER…that’s a different matter yes? 😀 #asoiaf #valyrianscrolls #jon snow #preparing to be excommunicated from the fandom in 3 2 1…

Not for nothing but the “Live long enough to hate me for this” (and later reveal of what exactly that meant) is rent-free in my head.

"Hey, dork."

[ Water ] - The liquid of life, the quencher of thirst. Served in crystalline glasses. And what’s more dramatic than throwing water at someone’s face! she would NEVERRR :smirk:

"Make sure you stay hydrated, yeah? 'Last thing I need is to be the one draggin' you outta here because you overdid it and didn't look after yourself."

the endearing nickname catches his attention immediately, despite the sigh it brings forth from his lips. the isaachian peers down at the glass being handed out him, water, or so it appeared. thinking it over... he was quite thirsty, and so he grabs the drink without hesitation. several deep gulps later, he let the glass idle at his side while he turned his attention to larcei.

"...sister. good to know you're enjoying yourself like always." he huffed out, not entirely thankful enough to forget her name calling. nothing to do about it, though, this was how his sister showed her love. even the dramatic way she framed 'place stay hydrated' left the real creatives to shame. nobody could paint something in an entirely different light like larcei could. "don't worry 'bout me. you just keep having fun, and i'll make sure not to ruin your night by passing out." scáthach laughed lightly, like she'd ever be able to drag his limp body around anyway. a funny image nonetheless.

... oh, fine... he pulled the brooch showing front and center on his lapel, and placed it roughly in her hand, careful to leave the point turned towards him. "thanks for the water, just take this and get out of here already." maybe they were more alike than he thought, each of them not able to express what they wanted to say the right way.

Being bound has made Luci more careful about the risks he takes. Fearful even. He has no interest in dying. He’ll commit to the bit literally right up to that point. Which means he will, however, risk bodily harm, especially if it’s funny. He’d rather avoid permanent damage, but a broken bone or two won’t kill him. He’s been kicked, punched, tossed on pretty much a daily basis his whole life. Not to mention the far worse tortures he was subjected to in the Hells. His pain tolerance is absurdly high, and there’s nothing you can propose aside from death that’ll scare him.

Which is all to say that it’s no accident if he irritates your character til they snap. He’s never looking to get hurt but he is looking for a laugh, a bit of chaos, and is perfectly fine with getting hurt as a consequence. He won’t even hold it against someone if they retaliate with a strike. Honestly? 99% chance it won’t be memorable to him.

#OOC / HOLLY. #MOBILE. #abuse tw #torture tw #again just covering my bases #imagining someone apologizing for snapping and hitting him #while he’s internally like ‘I don’t even remember that but I guess I’ll milk this guilt for all it’s worth’ #the apology would be memorable tho #no one’s ever really sincerely apologized to him for anything let alone scrapping with him #no one apologizes in the Hells it’s the HELLS #now I’m thinking about the subtle ways his behavior changes toward people he cares about #still an ass but he starts putting their best interests first and would literally sacrifice everything for them without telling them #ANYWAY I’m getting off topic #point if he fucks around he’s prepared to find out don’t worry

Damn, this website makes me feel kind of bad about myself.

#tw rant #people on here really do make me feel like #I’m an invader in every space because I don’t fit into the binary #and also just being a nonbinary person on here makes me feel really undesirable #I feel like I had to sacrifice my desirability to be myself #and that sucks #everyone on here who’s interested in dating #always wants either a gf or a bf #you don’t really see a lot of people wanting to date a nb person #and it’s not like there’s anything I can do about that #it just hurts #rant tw #rant #adding this to the list of things I’ll regret posting later #my post

Was thinking about my Bl//ack Bu//tler S/I again and realised that since she’s a prequel to the main series, she technically can have a mission where she sees “Ci//el” before the tragedy and when she’s later reincarnated to be a reaper, she sees him again and is like “haiii!”

#she’s also his first taste to the fau//stian contacts and demons — probably puts it together later so it gives him a better adjust #*adjustment to his own demon-related moments #if you didn’t know — my BB S/I did summon Claude but explaining all the lore in tags is a bit impractical. #if you want to eee it just tell me and I’ll tag you in the OG post but it’s all in my small handwriting LOL #but she … well she sacrifices herself essentially to avoid Claude having to kill her for her soul and homie didn’t eat her soul in time — #— froze for too long and she was collected by a reaper instead. #going to have to revise whether or not the demons actually fully know when the contract is complete. #because if not it gives even further incentive for the reapers to employ her because she technically would still have influence over a demon #but she’s a strange case regardless so either or she gets there #kinda dumb. makes more sense in the post LOL #also she’s much more of a fun insert than anything.

i could give a plethora of reason on why vegas dying in the finale doesn’t sit right with me, but i’ll just say this, he’s been abused and used as a mere tool by his father his entire life, has never known happiness/warmth or anything good and the minute he sees some light and finds someone who chooses him despite seeing him at his worst he dies? fucked up and senseless.

#RANTING BC IM SCARED #saying it now. because i’ll be too depressed to talk about anything on saturday (if this happens) #and just in case fuck everyone involved in writing his death #he dies a hero????? FUCK OFF #if he ends up a sacrifice like big i’m jumping #he dies redeemed ALSO FUCK OFF. i would rather he stay a terrible person #that’d be 2/3 of my fav characters dead.. #i’m angry over something i don’t even know is gonna happen #also personal feelings aside despite his nature he’s one of the most loved characters where’s the sense in killing him so soon #kinnporsche #.uselesstxt

[bluewithpurplepolkadots]

I think the weirdest fandom criticism I keep seeing is the insistence that distaste for certain redemption arcs is solely based on Christian based ideas of purity and suffering and like while a part of me gets this idea, I’m kind of like… the religion that focuses on and is literally famous for forgiveness?

You don’t think those defending often criticised redemption arcs, don’t have any potentially similar blind spots which can show in really ugly ways? That they are somehow immune from such influences?

Christian forgiveness, sometimes takes it too far and can push it to the detriment of victims in their communities and beyond. Especially when the abuser is more powerful in some way in their community. (And let’s be real: abusers by definition always have more power in some way, it’s when they get up the nose of someone with more power than them or those people give a shit /enough people group together against it that sparks can fly).

While I have experienced the anxiety from ‘all sins being equal’ and the resulting guilt: it also has very famously gone the other way and had people downplaying really horrific stuff. To dismiss those hurt. For after all: ‘we’re all sinners’.

Rather like in some of these botched redemption arc stories where the villain and hero almost always have to be bosom buddies: it can have communities make the victim have to interact with the one who hurt them instead of being allowed to at least peace out without losing everything they have ever known. That this will allow access to future and past victims because forgiving means forgetting to them. (Or at least pretending to). Because having a missing stair for new members or those unaware is apparently also fine?

But only being for punitive and worthless punishment can have Christian roots? The reverse extreme doesn’t have this issue? Nah mate.

Like maybe it’s more that almost any major religion or philosophy has its good sides or even ideas you can understand the root/benefit of: but almost nothing is above being exploited or abused by those in power. There’s nothing immune from corruption.

Personal interpretations can go to bizarre lengths. Leaving interpretations up to others to do it for you has its own obvious issues. It’s life and it’s messy just in general. Even trying to find a middle ground between the two methods and discussion can be hard. And you are going to fuck up sometimes. There’s no easy trickty trick trick or perfect level you can keep to forever for perfect results every single time you have to make a decision. You can fail by refusing to make one too.

Christianity has major political and social powers itself in a wider society to the point it’s shaped it for centuries, even affecting non-believers internally in ways they don’t think about.

The perfect religion or philosophy does not exist. It never will. All you can do is the best you can and keep trying. And even then like I said: you’re going to fuck up.

A redemption arc isn’t always good or a good idea just because you projected onto/lusted after the character getting or not getting it. It isn’t always bad it happened because you can’t personally relate or like the character either.

#Fandom problems #idk I just find it really weird sometimes that people don’t realise this can go both ways #it is remarkably easy to exploit something with good intentions to your own ends #like the idea no one is perfect ? #correct and can be helpful #but people abuse the idea no end be it in who they think deserves punishment and who they insist should be forgiven #it’s not just one or the other #Like which characters get what and why? #like are you seriously telling me ky ren fans would go as hard if he wasn’t a particular demographic set? #things like that #To say nothing of the fact some re just not well written #Like bad faith takes exist #even with redemption arcs I personally hate #but the insistence that slavish devotion to redemption arcs can’t have its own twisted side is weird #If anything I wish we had redemption arcs where the hero and villain don’t become friends at all #and that’s fine #or sympathetic villains who don’t get redemption at all because that’s the choice they made #Tragic back stories don’t give you the right to become someone else’s when they weren’t responsible for yours #or villains who have no tragedy except in what they sacrifice when they do make a turn around #I’ll stop talking now

For the specific asks: what would you do in the purge?

Well, depends on my mood honestly.

If I was mad, I would go full beast mode and try to protect everyone around me, even though I know I would most likely fail miserably. Just imagine this tiny woman, screaming like a banshie, saying “thou shall not hurt my family, my friends, my tumblr mutuals, and my students.” So, self sacrifice is one option.

Another would be I am scared. If I am scared to death, I will be hiding. Some people I know are prepers, so I would probably follow their lead and try to go “underground.” I would help get my most immediate family and loved ones to safety, then I would be sitting with my bow and arrow aimed at the door of any location I am in, shaking like a leaf, hoping it does not come to the point such measures must be taken. In this scenario, the main thing I would be doing is crying and praying. Praying and crying so hard, lol.

#i am not too familiar with the purge to be honest #so I hope this makes sense #lol idk #i’ll probably just cry #tw weapon mention #tw bow and arrow mention #tw self sacrifice #i will say #if i am calm enough #i know i would not let anything happen to my loved ones #i’ll be a tiny human shield
