instead of making the nether taller they should just put the existing nether upwards and then fill the underneath section with a new Deeper Dark biome that links to the overworld via ancient city portals.
i do think it is legitimately very funny whenever someone tries to make the claim that lavabending is inherently a very slow subbending and therefore not good in a fight. specifically when using that argument against Bolin's skill as a bender.
Sure, I feel like in very specific instances with Ghazan that could be a fair argument to make. It takes him a moment to destabilize the Ba Sing Se wall and for him to kick up enough lava to destroy the airbending temple. (to the point I would argue that if Bolin had been versed in lavabending like he was in s4 he would have swept the ground with Ghazan), but in moments where he's actually in a fight his lava is incredibly quick.
Just the lava frisbee on its own is an incredibly quick move
But making that argument with Bolin in particular is absolutely batshit when outside of lavabending he is an incredibly quick fighter. I would say it is one of, if not the, most defining things about his fighting style. He moves very, very quickly and uncharacteristically agile for a earthbender. This is a known thing. Like
I am not the first person to say this but no other earthbender does backflips like he does. And THEN with lavabending he is just as quick if not more so
Bolin since season 1 has had an uncanny knack for bending incredibly fast, and his lavabending is no exception to that rule. It's honestly something that haunts my brain all the time because how quick he is with it low-key breaks the balancing? a little?? Like earthbending was always shown to be very strong but in turn it was slower than other types of bending, but with Bolin that doesn't really seem to be a hangup he has.
This one would also have been published in colour but I don’t have the file. BUT OH HOW COOL THIS LOOKS? Them all looking directly at the camera (with a united goal, the same determination, and dramatic flair) but in an EVEN diagonal across the page. How Lava Lamp is in the center, taking charge of the plot (and how his plot and character arc is only one presently unresolved, and thus the new core of the narrative). But also Fai and Kurogane only showing one eye each because they MATCH now. Together they make a united pair - they are each one half of a whole, and they visibly balance out the page between them.
It almost makes Lava Lamp look lonely by comparison, especially since he used to have a similar parallel with Syaoran, but not anymore, and no-one knows for sure where either of the Sakuras are.
Also ngl I love that it’s referred to as the Kingdom of Clow here but the title of the chapter called it the Kingdom of Sand instead. Mostly because it’s hilarious, but also because it thematically treats their destination with the same unknown sense of mystery as every other world. It wouldn’t have an unknown quality to it if this was THEIR Kingdom of Clow, but it’s not THEIR Kingdom of Clow that we’re going to, is it?
I HATE TEH NIANJVO DRAGONS RISING INTRO JINGLE SO MUCH IT MAKES ME WANT TO RIP MY HAIR OUT AND SCTEAM UNCONTROBALLY LIKE WHERE THE FUCK IS THE JUMPING UP KICIKNG BACK WHIPPIGN AROUND AND SPINNIG?????????????????
How do you feel about LinhxSophie? Iv'e seen it being talked about more, along with Lava Cake, and I want to know whay you think. I don't really get it but I think their friendship is cute.
i remember it being popular years ago, it was like the kotlc lesbian ship for a while there
as far as im aware it comes from the fact that Sophie calls Linh pretty in the books...and thats it? i guess? (like all the boys wow at her too and i don't see them shipped with her often at all so...) (i don't understand 90% of Linh ships though) i do know that it's probably returning because of solinh week happening and people are thinking about it again.
i have to agree i do think their friendship is cute, Linh is pretty Aroace to me, i don't feel like she would be the kinda of character to get into a relationship (except for maybe with Marella). honestly i don't either of the twins would care to much about relationships, even though i ship tiana i think they would keep it private.
as for lava cake, i don't ship them but their friendship seems interesting, ill admit that, but i don't really think about those two enough to have coherent thoughts about them. its just kinda the ship my mutuals are obsessed with that i like to sit on my porch with some candy while i watch them write their fics and headcannons in the yard. i like to watch people have their fun!!
ngl i haaaate the term ' mun ' and i have never in my life once used it because it looks + sounds childish, also apparently its short for like. mundane. there is nuthin mundane about me.... i prefer ' typist '....... i also like ' admin '.
.................. hell, ill sooner call myself the Creative Director™ of this blog before i use that word.
idk about you but I definitely believe Cleo definitely didn't switch out King Ren's armour for a fake set I mean, they wouldn't do something like that right? >_>
On a plateau high above the lava, the homes of the Bonebuilders are as safe a place as you can get from the Badlands' wildlife. So wind back and take comfort in the sounds of the villagers conversing and constructing. Just keep an ear out for pterodactyls and lava lizards, as well.
WIP Wednesday. Tagged by @lucien-lachance it’s always a pleasure!
Felt the need for something self indulgent in the form of redoing LEGO but no longer LEGO Nexo Knights into what fuels too much brainrot for me. So forgive me mommyfying the half naked snake lady who whips the heroes into submission terror.
Best way to describe LEGO Nexo Knights is that it’s an incoherent shitshow with a lot of potential and I love it (and love fixing it in my brain) Very tempted to pick up writing again just to rewrite everything in my way. Now that sounds awesome.
Do you know any good qsmp lore supercuts? I want to watch more qsmp content (since i've really only been following along with liveblogs; i only really watched wilbur's vods almost up to when the eggs were first supposed to disappear) but there's so much to watch and it doesn't all hold my attention.

^^ this is the official qsmp lore recap channel!! honestly the best source I think you could get they condense so much of it so well. as for more recent stuff they haven't gotten to yet I'd recommend going on twitter (yeah i know I'm sorry 😔) and looking through your language of choices update accounts!! they're all run by official admins and have translated updates on every streamer per day. its a lot of lore but also liveblogging is how most people consume other lore, since there are people constantly streaming on the server. i look through the qsmp tag when i wake up in the morning and get home from school like a newspaper LMAO
typically I'd just suggest the twitter accounts, the recap channel, picking at least 2 or 3 different streamers to watch casually and looking through liveblogs. im a huge charlie guy obviously but I've literally never seen a cellbit stream before despite him being one of my favorite characters, I only know him through other streams and liveblogging. my spanish streamers don't stream on there anymore (cmon mariana and rubius D:) and so i mainly get Spanish updates from Spanish speakers on here!! point is you're doing great already LMAO just watch some of the recaps and look through the update accounts and you'll be fine.
(plus every stream they have to relay old information from one person to another so eventually you will get a lore info dump if you want to or not)
