#the famous fight

[ladymelisande]

{Transcription}

Narrator: ´1899, the tavern is now a parlour and London has spread all around it.

Lushing Lou: Hello, love! Give a girl a drive and a pale! No? Next time. All right, take care now, it's a nasty piece of supper (?) tonight. [step sounds] Oh, hello! Some you there? [screams] Oh, you get me a start, sir, per a second I thought you was bloody Jack himself.

Morpheus: No.

Lushing Lou: [gasp] I knowed that, sir, just joshing you. So how'd you like to buy a girl a drain of pale? Then maybe a quick bum-dance Give us a hard ride wiv yer cream-stick.

Morpheus: I think not. Please, release my arm. I do not care to be touched.

Lushing Lou: You pasty-faced pussy-cove! I bet you in't got it in you anyway, [distant] you skinny chickaleary!

Hob Gadling: I see you got a run in with Lushing Lou, in here they call her The Hospital.

Morpheus: Really? [sits down] Why?

Hob Gadling: Because she in them a great deal, and because she's sent so many men into them. Rotten thing, the pox.

Morpheus: I see.

Hob Gadling: This area's really gone downhill in the last hundred years. I starting coming here a month or so back. [sips drink] Don't wanna repeat last time's mess, do we?

Morpheus: I saw her again, you know.

Hob Gadling: Lady Johanna?

Morpheus: Indeed, she undertook to fulfil a task for me and succeeded admirably, I might add.

Hob Gadling: Mmm. Oh, by the way, I'm not the only one who doesn't die.

Morpheus: Really?

Hob Gadling: There's a bloke who's called himself Blood, I've met him half a dozen times, although he doesn't always remember me. And there is Mad Hattie on old Compton Street. Been there a hundred and twenty years, to my knowledge. Mad as a coot, but she ain't gonna die. Death's a capricious thing, innit?

Morpheus: Yes. Yes, she is.

Hob Gadling: Ciggar?

Morpheus: No, thank you.

Hob Gadling: You know, I think I know why we meet here century after century.

Morpheus: Really?

Hob Gadling: It's not because you wanna see what happens when a man don't die, you've seen what happens.

Morpheus: Mmm.

Hob Gadling: I doubt I'm any wise now than I was five hundred years back. I'm older. I've been up and I've been down, and I've been up again! Have I learned anything? I've learned from my mistakes, but I''d more time to make more mistakes. You were right about the slave trade.

Morpheus: Hmm.

Hob Gadling: I can't never make restitution for that, but listen, I've seen people and they don't change. Not in the important things. I doubt I'll ever seek Death. You've observed all that, but you knew it from the start. I think you're here for something else.

Morpheus: And what might that be?

Hob Gadling: Friendship, I think you are lonely.

[Morpheus lets out a breath, stands up.]

Morpheus: You... dare... You dare imply that I might befriend a mortal? That one of my kind might need companionship? You dare to call me lonely?!

[step sounds, door opening]

Hob Gadling: Yes! Yes, I do. Tell you what, I'll be here in a hundred years time and if you're here too, it'll be because we're friends, not other reason! Right?... Right?

Narrator: 1999.

[costumers talking]

Waitress: Another one, love? Or are you staying? Got stood up?

Hob Gadling: Very funny, Glad. I'll wait.

[door opens]

Waitress: Oh, Bob, your friend's here!

Morpheus: At the appointed hour.

Hob Gadling: I... I wasn't sure you'll be coming.

Morpheus: Really? I've always heard it was impolite to keep one's... friends waiting. Would you like a drink?

does throwing a stone at a tank

make a child a terrorist?

is terrorism about resisting oppression? is terrorism about demanding your birthright to live safely and peacefully in your homeland? is terrorism about hating the killers of your family, your friends and your people?

accusations of terrorism are often weaponized against those fighting for liberation and sovereignty and dignity. the french settlers called the algerians terrorists. the indian government calls the kashmiris terrorists. the pakistani army calls pashtun activists terrorists. the turkish government calls the kurds terrorists. apartheid south africa called nelson mandela a terrorist. americans called the vietcong and the black panthers terrorists. the israelis call the palestinians terrorists. all oppressive regimes are connected. all oppressed people are connected. injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.

#fares odeh #this is the justification that israel uses to imprison and kill palestinian children #accusations of terrorism are often weaponized against poc who fight for liberation #'wider impact: after odeh's picture became famous israeli tanks were told to start shooting at stone throwers' absolutely insane #free palestine #palestine #gaza #from the river to the sea palestine will be free #glory to the martyrs #long live palestine #death to israel #long live the resistance #save the children #palestinian resistance

#horrible situation BUT? kind of funny when you think about it. #sorry this should be a sideblog post but i need you guys to understand the breadth of it!! #worst cuntiest fight your friend group had when you were in your 20s and then people who weren't even there keep talking about it forever #people in interviews ask famous musicians if they prefer you or your ex bestie! #old man yells at cloud

something something Kevin fighting for people who had already stopped living for themselves (no one ever fought for him, either. he wont let it happen again) and giving chances to people who never thought they'd live long enough to have a future (his was made for him. now they'll get to forge their own together). or whatever.

#HE WANTS THEM TO FIGHT FOR THE FUTURE HE KNOWS THEY DESERVE BECAUSE HE KNOWS WHAT ITS LIKE TO NOT HAVE ANYONE BELIEVE YOU DESERVE IT #platonic kevandreil is my everything actually #they all make me sick in the best way possible #Kevin Day especially. he is. So Special to me. #kevin day you will always be famous #kevin day #neil josten #andrew minyard #kandreil #kevandreil #platonic kevandreil #all for the game #aftg #nora sakavic

Complex feelings about copyright and Disney's appalling ethics aside, it does unsettle me how quickly people jump to make and monetize the most unnerving, depraved content imaginable about characters created for children the second it hits the public domain

#lilac rambles #lilac goes to the movies #look you don't have to defend yourselves to me i don't really care what you do #so please don't flood my inbox with all this stuff about why disney sucks and why gross stuff is good actually #im not here to fight #i get it. they suck and this feels vindicating #i just get unnerved watching people do terrible things to things created for children the second they can #maybe it's bc i don't see anyone making anything...idk...nice? and like...not freaky? #like it really feels like 'haha we're going to defile this creation bc it makes us feel good to destroy something created for families' #bc if it had just been the case with mickey id get it yknow #but people did this with sweet old pooh bear too #but maybe that's bc he's now a disney property idk #like maybe as other famous characters come into the public domain people won't do the same things #and honestly that will make me feel a lot better

yknow riordan’s whole thing about demigod children of aphrodite being super feminine froufrou shallow weaklings is wild considering fucking aeneas was a son of venus

#i mean idk maybe aeneas was a super feminine froufrou shallow weakling but he did conquer latium so. #he did also TECHNICALLY fight achilles however briefly and ill advised that was #but like aeneas is by far the most famous mythological demigod son of aphrodite/venus #and he’s like never mentioned. maybe he’s mentioned in hoo but i honestly don’t remember #anyway justice for aphrodite demigods because whatever lore riordan has given them is Not It. #robin text

Why is it that fandoms with their games made by the same company hate each other so much whereas this is the opposite?

#project moon #limbus company #library of ruina #honkai impact #lobotomy corp #arknights #im in honkai 3rd fandom and limbus fandom and i tell you there should be atleast more than one drama of hyv fandom starting a war #whereas theres atleast on twt thread of unclefucker discussion between limbus and arknights #hoyoverse #mihoyo #genshin impact #honkai star rail #atleast ggz is seperate from this shitshow #i should try arknights while waiting for the pm drama to end #the friendship between limbus fandom and arknights fandom is the most random thing yet wholesome shit i’ve ever seen #is this what fame did to game company #i know pm and hypergryph are famous to but lets be real here hyv literally dominate the gacha game #apart from type moon obviously #prove thst found family is healthier than actual family #hi3rd is like the underdog despite its also famous but we just got drag into this fight

it’s real interesting watching people fall for alastor’s “i see you as my daughter” shtick. and by interesting i mean it’s the funniest thing i’ve ever seen because alastor had never felt threatened until lucifer, somebody who cld easily overpower him, just Casually showed up. like this is not a thing about caring for charlie his ego is just incredibly fragile and he is a little freak <3

#i know it’s more than just an ego thing obviously they hinted at that Multiple times #but it’s funnier to think of it that way #alastor #alastor hazbin hotel #lucifer morningstar #hazbin hotel #charlie morningstar #their first interaction is so funny because everyone’s constantly like alastor this famous demon who conquered hell and has powers that make #even the strongest shake and then lucifer’s like ‘who are you’ and alastor’s immediately like oh i hate this fucking guy #the girls are FIGHTING!

Eugene was truly the best boyfriend. saw his girlfriend get broken up with, and immediately had a revenge glow up. Imagine being Cassandra seeing your ex girlfriend's boyfriend and he's wearing a golden choker with the just deepest v neck known to man, the world's sluttiest gloves, and a thigh garter. I'd have to give up then and there.

#Eugenes season 3 outfit you will always be famous #eugene fitzherbert #tangled the series #:v #He saw cass's hot catsuit and knew what he had to do #Also just to scream abt the series bc I just finished #absolutely crazy to me that they have set up since s1 that Eugene has pretty strong identity issues and it's never really addressed? #like s3 was low-key a mess I wish they just let cass be a villain don't have her be manipulated the entire time let her choose it at least #or like I'm fine with her being manipulated but I just felt like they didn't want to go to far with her character #and it made her feel kinda weak narratively #a lot just felt rushed #and I think we should have gotten a biiit more with eugenes identity issues #bc a lot of it in that episode was just a running joke #will say. #euegene/Rapunzel really carried that series they're relationship was the best written part #I would like cass more if they let her be a bit more unhinged #Her best moment was ''will you fight for him?'' #Like yess queen expand on that more #Need a whole episode of her kidnapping Eugene to fuck with Rapunzel #Also sorry you were worth fighting for is downright one of the most romantic lines in the whole show #Also it's so funny to me bc Rapunzel is so protective over Eugene like cass touches him and she's just #SHES MIIINE GET AWAY FROM HER IT'S NOT HER TIIIIME
