Panic room - au/ra
so panic room is very clearly about anxiety, and looking at the info about the song, it's also about self-doubt. without putting my shipper shades on that might make me twist this into some 🥭🍑 abomination, i'm definitely hearing maq → MK, and it's macaque projecting something heavy onto MK. the whole chorus shares it really well—
Welcome to the panic room Where all your darkest fears are gonna Come for you, come for you Welcome to the panic room You'll know I wasn't joking When you see them too, see them too
it is very much giving S2E7 ("shadow play") and macaque nudging MK's self-doubt that's steadily been cropping up over the course of the season, macaque just absolutely nourishing that by provoking him and projecting onto him hard when MK is asking him about what may have happened to the warrior in the play.
the song overall epitomizes macaque's second coming very well, especially when it comes to his situation with LBD. obviously he's in a tough position because he's... not evil? but he's very much looking out for himself, but he knows that his second existence is at threat so long as she's around.
Hell raising, hair raising I'm ready for the worst

☁︎a small-silly-sorta abt + tag system pin post (will be edited as i feel the urge to silly return)
hey there; i do stuff and like lot's of stuff and have trouble doing things on time. a bit busy atm so i might respond late (sorry abt that!!)
i go by any pronouns (not including neos, ie just he/she/it/they), and i forgot what my name was!! (can't wait to get one ehehee-)
☁︎ ukr/eng + learning latin and polish (im trying (help) ☁︎ ∞ minor (late teens) ☁︎ creeps, westsplainers and vatnyks dni (if dni lists are still a thing) ☁︎
i'm sick of my old tag system so HERE YOU GO
#%иїо, for most reblogs
#art-rbyay, for reblogs of art by others
#queueeey, queue tag
#aCtualoriginalstufftent, for =} once in a blue moon (original posts, includes text posts)
#.ao, for a variety of things from 3am-postin' to 10 braincell posts and random thoughts
#khmartdump, an art archive sort of thing. posting old art or other such creations that may or may not be quality but sure are ~memories~.
#khmarrkin, for wips, discussions about them and whatever project i feel urged to work on at the moment
#khmarrawrings, - sillier doodles and some (often unfinished) sketches
i generally tag spoilers with the format of *titleacronym*S#E#spoilers (eg tgammS2E1spoilers) for tv shows, and "*fulltitle**year*spoilers" (eg thestepfordwives1975spoilers) for films. if a thing is tagged as a spoiler for the episode of a tv show assume it's spoilers for every following episode/installment. I'll often use 2 spoiler tags eg #tgammS2E15spoilers and #tgammS2E7lightspoilers where S2E15 is a brand-new episode that is the main concern of a post, but the post may still be a spoiler if you haven't watched S2E7 - it may be a smaller spoiler (say, a new character) but is still a spoiler, and you might want to steer clear. In all cases I'll be using variations of "*titleacronym* spoilers" (eg tgamm spoilers) alongside the aformentioned tags. I'll try to stay consistent with my spoiler tagging (and use more spoiler tags in general) so you hopefully don't get spoiled, and I apologize for the confusion caused by this fairly convoluted system!!
you can check out my old tag system in the about page - some of my old posts use that old system so if you stumble upon them, checking that might be useful. Here's some stuff I'm into and which you may find on this blog (depending on how things go and whether i,, yk, actually post:
Wander Over Yonder
The Ghost and Molly McGee

I need to know what George and Lance talked to Adora about for hours!
Look at this! This is where Glimmer and Bow were left after his dad’s took Adora to help them decide what ‘one more thing says’ followed by the image where they have their heart to heart about Bow’s life.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
that my friends! is time passage! The lighting, the mood, and that big pile of scrolls! Yes that was tedious work that took hours, and I want to know all the things that his dads and Adora talked about for those hours! OH MY GOD DID THEY SHOW HER THE BUBBLE BATH BABY PICTURES!?

So You Want To Watch Star
but don’t know what episodes to watch!
That's completely understandable! Star is the type of show where the first season and a half feel like an entirely different show from the godsend that is the second half! So here's your guide on how to get to the good part.
On the fence? This show features an incredibly queer narrative told through straight people, along with showing the complexities of racism, classism, capitalism, privilege, and love, and how those tie together. It's heaven for people who love to analyze and learn from cartoons, as well as simps for healthy adorable romance. As a She Ra and Owl House fan...it's worth the watch.
My Rating Scale!
1 - You’ll probably feel better if you skip this.
2 - It’s okay. Won’t kill you to watch it, won’t kill you to skip this.
3 - You might get some seratonin. No promises tho.
4 - The Good Shit. Highly recommended.

Redemption, Forgiveness and She-Ra S5
So just to spite the anon who told me to stop posting my opinions, I’m gonna post another opinion!
This will contain spoilers for SPOP, Avatar: the Last Airbender, The Good Place, and Steven Universe.
So the most common take that I’ve heard about S5 from Catra stans is that it’s a story about redemption and forgiveness and that if I’m in any way critical of it then I’m saying abusers can never redeem themselves.
To which I say: the second part is a strawman argument, and the first part doesn’t help because it’s a bad story about redemption and forgiveness.
Part 1: Redemption
The problem with S5′s stories about redemption is that they are, universally, undercooked.  For things that the fanbase had been wanting for months, they’re surprisingly lacking in meaningful impact.
Catra’s is the least bad, because Catra is at least on-screen long enough to tell us that it seems to be sticking, but it’s still not good.  It’s rushed, it’s weightless, and it feels like they didn’t even check what she’d done in the past three seasons that she would need to find redemption for.
At no point does she meaningfully confront her actions (which, in case you’ve forgotten, ranged from bringing about the death of Queen Angella (S3E6), to repeated attempts to murder or permanently harm Adora (S1E11, S1E13, S2E5, S3E4-6, S4E3), to bullying Scorpia (present throughout but most obvious in S4E6), to taking part in a war crime (S4E8)), nor does she really confront the jealousy and spite that drove them.  Indeed, the episodes that could have been spent showing us her character development are spent showing us that she still has a very unhealthy attitude towards Adora (S5E6) and telling us that she underwent her character development offscreen, while we were distracted by Double Trouble (S5E8).
Hordak’s is even worse, because Catra at least admits she wronged people, even if the focus is put almost entirely on Catra feeling bad about it.  Hordak realises, accurately, that being made into a cog in a machine of conquest is bad (S5E13)...but he never makes the leap onscreen to it still being bad when he did it to other people, as he did to Adora and the other Horde kids (S2E7).  It treats Hordak’s decision to break free of Horde Prime as if it in and of itself makes him good, overlooking that the life he’s trying to go back to was the one where he ruled over an empire of stolen children.
I don’t even want to get into Shadow Weaver.
AtLA gave a compelling redemption arc to Zuko by having him confront the consequences of his actions.  SU gave a compelling redemption arc to Peridot by showing us, in great detail, her evolution from antagonist to ally.  SPOP just kinda tells us that characters are good now and expects that to work out okay.
And the really depressing thing is that both these characters actually could have sustained really compelling redemption arcs!  I would have loved to see Hordak meaningfully realise onscreen that the universe does not consist of him, Horde Prime, Imp, Entrapta, and a bunch of largely interchangeable pawns for him to treat as he sees fit.  I would have loved to see Catra wrestle with and overcome her resentment of Adora, maybe come to understand that being Shadow Weaver’s favourite fucking sucked actually.  The show just didn’t bother, and so what we got was on par with a bad fanfic or the backstory for a D&D character.
Part 2: Forgiveness
For my money, one of the best stories about forgiveness in modern media is in a third season episode of The Good Place called “A Fractured Inheritance”.
Explaining it with as few spoilers as possible, protagonist Eleanor Shellstrop discovers that her cartoonishly neglectful mother Donna faked her death and seems to have built a new life where she’s a good stepmother to a child.  Eleanor spends most of the episode convinced that her mother is running a scam, but eventually concludes that this does appear to be sticking and gives up her plan to reveal Donna’s secret, cautioning her not to go back to how she used to be.  At the end, she opens up to a friend about the trauma she sustained as a result of her upbringing.
SPOP could never.
"A Fractured Inheritance” tells a more compelling story about forgiveness in 15 minutes of screentime than she-Ra S5 managed in four and a half hours because The Good Place cares about Eleanor’s trauma.  It’s portrayed as pretty understandable that she has a grudge against her mother, and working through that takes time and sustained proof that Donna has changed.  More than that, forgiveness isn’t portrayed as a magical button that instantly solves Eleanor’s issues; just because she’s letting go of her anger towards Donna doesn’t mean that the harm she suffered as a result of Donna’s neglect goes away.  Her fear of opening up or being vulnerable, stemming from a childhood of constantly being shat on when she did, is still there, even after reconciling with her mother.
Contrast this to She-Ra S5.  The second Catra says she’s sorry, Adora is willing to forgive her and go across the universe to help her (S5E3), even though in their last interaction, back in S4E3, Adora actively tried to kill her for pretty darn compelling reasons (you may remember those reasons from S3E4-6).  Adora gets, like, a brief rant in S5E4 where she seems to be confused about this, but there’s never a point where she meaningfully seems to process the trauma she’s suffered as a result of Catra’s treatment of her, which we know has been toxic, controlling and unhealthy since they were kids (S5E3).
More than that, there’s never really a point where any of the people Catra victimised in the first four seasons gets to deal with that.  Glimmer seemingly never realises that Catra is why her mother is dead (S3E6), which is especially jarring given that the effects of Angella’s death on Glimmer drove the entire previous season; Entrapta barely remembers that Catra betrayed her and sent her to her presumed death (S5E6); Bow thinks someone who’s done nothing but attempt to hurt his friends for as long as he’s known her is adorable (S5E8); Scorpia forgives her before she even finishes saying sorry (S5E13); and both Frosta decking her in S5E9 and Perfuma’s understandable irritation with the woman who bullied her GF in S5E10 are portrayed almost as jokes, the latter never escalating beyond mild rudeness.
This also extends to Hordak, who, after his tissue-thin face turn in S5E13, gets a baffling montage that tries to portray his picking up an abandoned child and indifferently turning her over to an abusive sorceress (S2E7) as somehow heartwarming and a big bonding moment, and then the notion that Mermista might have some grudges against the guy who burned down her home and displaced her people (S5E7-8) is framed as comic.
I’m not even saying that neither of these characters should never be forgiven by anyone!  Just that the forgiveness they get in the show is lacking in dramatic weight, because the actions that are being forgiven don’t feel like they mean anything.  Catra has hurt Adora, Glimmer, Entrapta, Scorpia, Mermista and countless unnamed innocents, and it’s all treated like it has the same impact as borrowing Adora’s Xena DVDs and forgetting to give them back.  Hordak should be considered Etheria’s greatest monster given the number of people who’ve died as a result of his actions and maybe one person is slightly irritated at the prospect of having to send him a Christmas card this year.
(This is without getting into the fact that Glimmer and Entrapta are expected to deal with the consequences of their actions to some degree, with each getting an episode focused around that (S2E2, S2E4).  It’s kind of wild that Glimmer nearly destroying the world because she took a reckless risk in a desperate gamble to try and save the people she cares about from the Horde blitzkrieg, a gambit that she immediately tried to fix when she realised she’d fucked up (S4E10-13) is treated as something that causes a notable rift in her friendships, but Catra nearly destroying the world because she was just that jealous of Adora (S3E3-6) is breezed past with an “I’m sorry.”  Entrapta building the robots causes the Alliance to hold grudges; Hordak waging 25 years of warfare is [shrug] Just Horde Clone Things.)
3. Salvaging These Plot Points
Now, as I implied above, the notion that I think these characters are irredeemable is a bullshit strawman, a thought-terminating cliche that Catra stans use to dismiss criticism without processing with it.  So how would I go about it?
Catra
I would start by having Catra and Glimmer be in the same escape.  Having her attempt to sacrifice herself in S5E3 had some weird thematic issues given her previously established self-destructive streak (S2E5, most of S3).  If we have to keep the bad plot point where Adora recovers the friend who loves and cares for her and immediately goes “well, we gotta leave our friends back home to deal with a colonial invasion while we charge across the universe to save my abusive stalker ex who’s never respected my personhood or autonomy”, I’d probably look at the two biggest missed opportunities in the season: S5E6 and S5E8.
S5E6 is terrible, and should just be expunged mercilessly with fire for its baffling endorsement of the sentiment “yes i abused u but now u hate me so i’m the victim really”.  Its replacement should probably be focused around Adora genuinely processing the harm she’s sustained as a result of Catra’s treatment of her, probably deciding at the end that she’ll accept Catra’s help but is still understandably suspicious of her given the established mistrust (S1E8) and hostility (S4E3).
S5E8 is easy to fix, though; instead of it mostly being the characters bumbling around a haunted house, I’d make the setting actually do stuff for the characters’ arcs.  We already know that First One ruins can bring up memories, so I’d turn it into a reversal of S1E11 where Adora and Catra’s friendship can actually be rebuilt, probably culminating in Catra saving Adora from falling off a cliff as a symbolic rejection of the resentment she would have been struggling with throughout the episode.  This is probably where Adora starts to actually believe that Catra has become a better person.
Basically, the goal here is to show the audience that Catra is working to overcome her issues and become a better person, instead of telling us that it happened offscreen.
Hordak
The problem with Hordak’s face turn is that at no point in the show, including after we’re supposed to treat him as Good Now, does he seem to give a shit about anyone not on a list that contains maybe 4-5 names.  I’d probably put in some scenes earlier where his experiences seem to be actually changing him for the better: maybe his response to Entrapta asking him to spare Catra isn’t to commute her sentence to a suicide mission, or he feels a sudden sympathy with a captive Etherian after the fall of Salineas, as the shared feelings of loss line up, and orders their release.  Basically, the idea is to put in some groundwork so that it actually feels like he might be safe to have around, instead of him betraying his tyrannical overlord because he misses his life where he was, himself, a tyrannical overlord.
I also would not play the idea that people might be a little bit suspicious of a man with a 25-year history of ruthless oppression, colonial violence and unprovoked warmongering as a joke.  Just one of those personal quirks.
4. Summary
In conclusion:
S5 is a bad story about redemption because it doesn’t give the characters being redeemed engaging or compelling redemption arcs, favouring a blind rush to the ending, and it’s a bad story about forgiveness because it treats the actions that are being forgiven as though they don’t mean anything, even when episodes or entire seasons have been built on the effects of those actions.  It’s not that these ideas are bad in general, that these characters axiomatically couldn’t be redeemed or that forgiveness is problematic; it’s just that the execution is bad.
Anyway, thanks, jackass anon, for inspiring me to set down my thoughts in detail like this!

wow i'm glad you're enjoying the harley quinn show! i've also been liking it a lot, for very similar reasons as u, especially ivy & harley's char growth; but i've been keeping quiet about how much i like it bc it seems everyone else on the internet has huge issues with it lol. kiteman really grew on me over s2, i'm about to watch s2e7 and i'm apprehensive about how things r gonna go down..
I’ll be honest—I went in skeptical thanks to Tumblr, but it won me over like, instantly. I want to say within about five seconds. And then Ivy appeared about thirty seconds later and I was like ohhhh god yes. And then time stopped for a while and when I looked back at the clock it was 2AM and I’d watched the whole first season.
I consumed all of the second season at a feverish rate today and I can say you will NOT be disappointed and even though there may be some drama, it’s clearly endgame territory for Harley and Ivy. My god. I never thought I’d say this, but if She-Ra could have been like this.....
And since it’s DC universe, I am PRAYING that they give us a Lena Luthor and Supergirl soon, with some fan service jokes. It’s a hell of a lot more likely than the CW indulging us, I’ll say that for sure.
Spoilers for season one, but one of my favorite Youtubers sums it up quite nicely. It’s a great show. I hope it goes far! I hope season three is just a loop of them fucking and robbing banks!

She-Ra S2E7 - Reunion Review
The final episode of SPoP season 2. Dang it, why is season 2 so short? Unfortunately, I had seriously procrastinated on watching this episode due to me being busy, some mental health problems, and I had to find a good time to watch it alone, since it features Bow’s two dads, and my mom is homophobic.
Anyways, there are two plots in this episode, and they both focus on dishonesty in some way. The first plot is that Bow has to go back to his dads’ place. They think that he’s at an academy and Glimmer and Adora are his classmates. Bow has to hide his weaponry and wear a sweater. Glimmer can’t use her powers and Adora can’t turn into She-Ra. The reason being is that George was severely hurt by the Rebellion, causing him to despise the Rebellion, fighting, and princesses. Lance and George want Bow to become a historian, but Bow secretly doesn’t want it. The character dynamics are truly excellent here. Bow is very relatable because even though he wants to be a fighter, he knows it would break his dads’ heart. Adora is very comical, putting accents upon the wrong syllables in words such as ‘academy’. Glimmer serves as the middle point between the two. Lance and George are also strong characters; they are very passionate about their interest in history and simply want Bow to be interested in it too. They do have an understandable reason for disliking fighting, and are very loving parents once they discover the truth about Bow. They are animated parents done right. We need more parents like them.
The second plot focuses on the Horde. Catra has lost Shadow Weaver, and doesn’t want to tell Hordak. By way of his Imp thingy, he does find out, and snaps at her for her dishonesty. We also get a very shocking cliffhanger, but I won’t spoil it.
The overall moral of this episode is to be honest, and your family is there to support you. By the way, does anyone else think that Bow lying to his parents about being at a history school is a metaphor for being closeted and lying to parents about being straight/cis?
10/10
