Light Hope - Permanently Delete

Anyone else notice how Light Hope never brought up activating the Black Garnet to Adora, and instead remained focused on combat training? Something that was, at best, extremely incidental to her programming's goals?

Like, in Season 1 you can argue there's an element of placating Adora - that Light Hope is training her because otherwise Adora was just going to tantrum and leave - but by Season 4?

By Protocol, Adora is bored and frustrated, and is actively seeking the First Ones' secret weapon.

And yet Light Hope remains vague about 'balancing Etheria', implying that more She-Ra training is needed to achieve that goal.

Except, y'know, it isn't.

=======

Adora getting better at fighting isn't going to activate the Black Garnet, the one piece of the Heart that's actually missing.

Once all the channels are open, it doesn't matter what state the Horde or the Rebellion are in, and Adora's competence (or, indeed, her concious compliance) is entirely irrelevant.

So why didn't Light Hope push Adora to capture the Garnet?

And why did she use Glimmer to that end? What changed?

Well.

========

Of all the characters in this show, Light Hope is the one most explicitly bound by Fate. For all that she is more than what she was made to be, she is unable to abandon the Castle and the Heart, or stop searching for a new She-Ra. She cannot so flagrantly deny her programming.

But she could frustrate and circumvent it, driven by a secret memory of warmth.

She could slow walk her search for the next She-Ra, modifying the parameters to ensure the most unsuitable candidate possible.

She could 'accidentally' place them somewhere where she might never be able to reach them.

She could waste time on pointless trivialities and parlour tricks, things that are ultimately irrelevant to the Heart's true purpose.

And, of course, she could mis-order the steps, requiring the planet to be 'balanced' before revealing how that could be done.

=====

Light Hope's distant, high-handed, frustrating bullshit is not malice, or an expression of her intrinsically inhuman nature - it is a form of protection.

Her attempts at creating a new She-Ra are ineffective, not because she is incompetent, but because in her deepest, most secret of hearts, she does not want to succeed.

Until, of course, that resistance is discovered - and crushed.

=====

[But not completely, not forever - because in the end there is always, always a choice]

It hit me... while there is no shortage of emotionally manipulative villains in She-Ra, they are really bad at picking their targets.

Shadow Weaver: "Ah, Micah. You will lead me to greatne... Adora, YOU will leave me to greatness. You are not a goody-two-shoe like my last ward are you... you are? How dissapointing... Glimmer, YOU won't chose what's right over personal gain in the last minu... OK, you would. You know, maybe kids simply aren't worth the effort. Castaspella?"

Catra, meanwhile: "I'd literarely tear the world apart for a pat on the head."

Shadow Weaver: "Shut up, cat. I'm busy. Hmmmm, let's try Adora again."

- -

Light Hope: "Who wants power?"

Glimmer: "ME!"

Light Hope: "Who wants to fulfill the legacy of the princesses of old?"

Glimmer: "Mememememe! Pick me!"

Scorpia: "Say, I wonder if me connecting to the legacy of my mothers would forward anyone's plans."

Light Hope: "And who wants to get access to the secrets of the first ones and all their tech?"

Entrapta: "Heheheheheheh!"

Light Hope: "Adoooooora!"

- -

Horde Prime: "Ah, princess Glimmer. You are interested in personal glory and power, right?"

Glimmer: "What? No! That shit nearly fucked me and all my friends over and I'm stewing in guilt over it."

Catra: "I wouldn't mind some power..."

Horde Prime, ignoring her: "But how about the chance to bask in the glory of Prime?"

Hordak: "I'd give everything to..."

Glimmer: "Ew. I'm busting your fucking orb right now."

Entrapta: "Hello! Anyone want to tempt me with some tech and science?"

Horde Prime: "Nah, I'm just going to order your boyfriend to shoot you in the face instead."

Hordak: "Wow! This is really illuminating for my priorities."

- -

Double Trouble: Wow, you are all amatures. *flawlessly manipulates the rebellion into shambles and then turns around and have Catra and Hordak destroy each other with a few words*

(To be fair to Glimmer, she also pulled off the manipulation of Scorpia without a hitch)

(And to be fair to Catra, she pulled off the manipulations of both Entrapta and Adora perfectly)

this is apparently a "leaked" image but I found it in a news article that was itself a repost of a New York Times article. Reddit tells me it was initially leaked by the NYT so like, whoops! I broke it up by character for your convenience here, but I gave up on image-correcting after Light Hope. Messing with the color balance made the text illegible in really annoying ways and frankly, I've got too much other stuff to do.

A fascinating mix of the first and second 'halves' of the show on display here. Glimmer's even got a mix of hairstyles. Why this is just the sort of thing one could put in an art book [🥺 looks at DreamWorks with big wet eyes 🥺]

something something, visited by three spirits that push you to reinvent yourself

and meanwhile, the three mother-type figures in Adora's life were all key to her to figuring out what she really wanted and who she wanted to be but literally...

Light Hope "died" trying to right a wrong from the PAST

Queen Angella died trying to preserve Adora's PRESENT

and Shadow Weaver died to give Adora a chance at a FUTURE

#I could say this more intelligenty with time but this just occurred to me and I'm making it your problem #Shadow Weaver as the terrifying faceless cloaked figure #then her last words being 'this is only the beginning for you' as she bought them time (in the long and short term)#light hope essentially ending the world because of old programming from a long dead race of colonizers #then letting herself be destroyed over memories that should have been deleted bc she regretted what happened with mara #and the way the way the crystal castle gave you a tour of moments of your past like the first spirit #meanwhile angella was just trying to close the portal to save the present aka the life they had right now #but of course her staying behind completely altered the present for everyone especially glimmer #and meanwhile each of these losses served as key moments in Adora's journey (pos change arc if ur nasty)#and she emerged on the other side realizing it was not too late to change and make a new world #spop #shera #she ra #queen angella #light hope #shadow weaver #adora #a christmas carol #meta #do you see what I'm getting at?#this all started because I was picturing the three of them as ghosts at the end watching her Star wars style

Sooo I just watched the new X-Men episode... and heard a familiar voice. Morla Gorrondona aka Light Hope from She-Ra! She's the new VA for the X-men's ally Lilandra (Professor Xavier's hot alien gf for those who don't know her)

Sometimes I think about the time Adora was given the choice between following the glorious destiny promised her

And doing what was right

But making the right choice cost her the woman she loved

(Note: The catra image is not a screenshot as I first thought, but fanart by @ramblerogue. Check her stuff out - she's an amazing artist)

Spop Beauty Pageant AU

So it’s kind of a twist on the pageant trope because I want it to be more inclusive and focus on cis nonconforming beauty standards. So the pageant would feature the entire cast and the different ways they express their beauty and confidence.

Double Trouble is a nonbinary icon. They make anything and everything look good 😎👑🧑‍🎤

Bow is a transmasc gender nonconformist. Dude loves his crop tops, and has no problems wearing flower crowns or donning a skirt when the mood strikes him.☀️🌼🏹

Glimmer is a short, chubby queen. She enjoys frills, pastels, and sparkles 💖 She, also, prefers to wear boots with everything and short hair; a sort of Rebel in Pink kind of style. 🦹‍♀️ 💅

Adora’s got a strong athletic style that leans towards gender neutral. However, it’d be fun to explore her softer feminine side with formal wear.👟🎀⚔️

Catra has this Punk Rock meets Femme Fatale vibe that’s super attractive 🎸🗡️ and yet she’d never be caught dead in a dress ☠️. A plaid skirt with ripped leggings underneath is the closest she’s likely to get. 😼

While Scorpia is a gorgeous wall of muscle she has a strong feminine style 👠💋. Additionally, in modern AUs, she is often times depicted with a prosthetic arm or two 🦾

Mermista and Perfuma have a pretty self explanatory aesthetic. However, Mermista’s character is meant to explore a non-western culture, while Perfuma herself could be read as a trans feminine woman. 🔱🥻💐💚

I’d love to explore Frosta. She also comes from a non-western cultural background with an elemental aesthetic but her style isn’t fully fleshed out either. One could lean towards multiple directions. I’d like to play around with her hair maybe add multicolored streaks, possibly an undercut. 🌨️❄️⛄️

Then there’s Sea Hawk who while very masculine in appearance is also very bisexual and body positive with his flamboyant over the top appearance. 🔥🏴‍☠️⚓️

I could see older characters like Angella, Light Hope, Spinnerella and Netossa, even Hordak acting as the judges. 🪽⚛️ 🌪️🌐💃

I’d probably add Entrapta as a stylist since she has no interest in competition. The spacesuits she took the time to design, along with Hordak’s armor, demonstrates how admirable her skills for fashion are. 👩‍💻 🪡🧵

Shadow Weaver could be a scorned and bitter pageant Queen trying to relive her glory days through one of kids (probably Adora). 🤡😒

Casta and Micah could be the cohost. I could see Micha dressing in drag for some his appearances too. 🧔‍♀️🔮🎤
