i've already made posts about this so many times but every time the raven queen's ascension gets brought up and its talked about like she did it for immortality or purely for power it makes me go a little insane because the story of her being a follower of the god of death before her and taking his place specifically because he didn't respect death is one of the best things about her lore in my opinion. that one of the biggest differences between her and those who failed attempts at ascension is that she did because of faith and not to spite it.

#critical role #the raven queen #i do fully understand that theres no reason for most of the characters to know this btw #and that given how wizards in the age of arcanum were. it Makes Sense to assume that #but something within me compels me to bring this up as often as possible. #and also dont get me wrong. she absolutely is still an example of extreme wizard hubris. #now i do absolutely think there are fascinating discussions that could be had about the implications of this reasoning #but the idea that she did it for selfish reasons of immortality or such and not out of her own faith and respect of death and the dead #i just love her okay!!!

currently feeling normal (lying) about electric sheep Meursault 👍

he's clearly already miserable in the art and then you'd think that "This electricity is all I have left… I can't…!" would be the line for the corrosion but NOPE! THAT'S THE AWAKENING LINE!

HE HAS NO CORROSION LINE. ON CORROSION HE JUST SITS DOWN AND SCREAMS

also all his other EGO corrosions are just "normal man with something on his head" (except Pursuance, which is still pretty tame, especially when put next to Rodion's corrosion of that) but this one is full on sheepy

and Don's isn't. Don's sheep corrosion stays humanoid.

I'm too tired to try and analyze the meaning right now but my mannnnnnnn

#limbus company #project moon #limbus company spoilers #meursault #everyone including me a few weeks ago: oh yeah of course the electric sheep exploited for energy would show up in heathcliff's canto #meursault rocking up to the club to take all the concerning implications for himself: #me post #he’s a very cute sheep btw

hermit horror week day 4: season 7 or taken over

Xisuma slowly blinks at the console logs for the server again. He's very tired; he's been collecting blackstone again, and it's very tiring, collecting blackstone. He's been building a lot of pretty houses, and stocking a lot of shops, and he hasn't had time to look at the console much recently. He probably shouldn't be now, because he's tired, and tired people make mistakes.

He makes a lot of mistakes; he's silly like that. A big derp. It's why he has to be careful, since he's been tired so much lately. He definitely shouldn't have the console open.

It's just, earlier Impulse had a question, since his moss farm kept lagging, and Xisuma thought it would be easy enough to try to find the root cause of. And he did find the root cause of it--Impulse's farm is too fast and his storage simply doesn't keep up with the amount of moss--but there's... some other things...

He blinks again at the dates on the server files. The last edited dates. Slowly, he clicks again on his own player data, and tries to make sense of what he's reading. Files like this, they aren't really meant to be that human-readable. It's--well, it is mostly json, so it's mostly human-readable, actually, but a lot of it is still encrypted, for player safety, which would. Maybe explain what he's looking at? He thinks? He's--well, he does have root access, is the thing, because he's the admin, but he still shouldn't be able to look at any player willy-nilly.

He's a little too much of a derp to be trusted with that. He probably shouldn't even be looking at his data! It's just. That last edited date. Xisuma doesn't edit his own player data. That way lies madness. He's, uh, pretty sure he knows some people who went a little mad doing that. So the fact of the matter is--well, it's not the only file that's been edited recently, he tells himself. Just because it's a lot of memory files that seem to have been edited, as well as access permissions--that's... normal enough for a new season, right?

He's...

He doesn't notice his other self walk up behind him.

"Oh, hey Xisuma. You finished gathering materials for our next build, then?" Evil Xisuma says. All of Xisuma's hairs stand on end.

"I mean, I've gathered enough to get started," Xisuma says.

"Pity. I was really hoping you'd manage to get everything. I thought maybe we'd finish today, but I guess we can't now."

"I--you're right. I'm really sorry."

"No, no, don't worry, don't worry, my friend," Evil Xisuma says. "We probably couldn't have finished today anyway, even if you said you'd try for it."

Xisuma's heart is in his throat. "Sorry, my head's just been. You know how I am. Silly me, forgetting things."

Evil Xisuma shakes his head. "It's awfully lucky I came back this season. Think of all the important things you'd be forgetting without reminders!"

Xisuma looks down and away.

"Gosh, and now you're... playing around in the admin console?"

"Oh!" Xisuma says. "It's, er, nothing really big..."

"Can I see it?"

He barely resists the urge to close out of his player data and hide that's what he'd been looking at. He doesn't know why he wants to hide it. It's not like--well, if Evil Xisuma got mad about it, it would be... right, wouldn't it? Because, well, Xisuma knows full well he shouldn't be looking at or editing his own player data. Editing your own data is the way to madness, and Xisuma, well, he's been so tired lately. He could easily accidentally hit a button. He could easily accidentally hit delete. He has root access, after all.

His heart is in his throat again. He shuffles his feet. "Sure," he says, finally. "I, er, I promise, I wasn't doing anything. I just noticed the last edited date on, uh, files that aren't automatically created by the system? And I thought, gosh, that's weird. I'd only been in there to check on Impulse, really, after he'd had some lag issues. I was just finishing up. It's nothing--the date's weird, though, right? That's all I was noticing."

He watches Evil Xisuma's fingers scroll through all of Xisuma's data. It's not quite fast enough that Xisuma isn't sure he's reading it, and suddenly, Xisuma feels very small.

Finally, Evil Xisuma hands Xisuma's tablet with the admin console open back to him. Xisuma looks down, and Evil Xisuma has closed out of the player data again.

"You just forgot the last maintenance date," Evil Xisuma says.

"Really?" Xisuma says.

"Oh, yeah, for sure. You're so tired lately. You silly derp. You've just been forgetting things easily. You should really get more rest!"

"Oh, but then we won't finish our projects," Xisuma says.

"I guess we wouldn't," Evil Xisuma says back.

"It's just--it's. Most of the time, access permission for player memories isn't edited during maintenance, and I just--I don't remember putting your name down?"

"Why wouldn't you?"

Xisuma tries to think.

"I don't know," he says finally, small, unable to meaningfully articulate anything about what's wrong with it. "I guess it only makes sense, if I'm forgetting things so easily."

"Exactly! Gosh, we make a good team," Evil Xisuma says, and he smiles at Xisuma. Xisuma crookedly smiles back.

"Yeah, we do," Xisuma agrees.

"Don't pull that out again unless I say so, okay?"

"Okay," Xisuma agrees automatically, and then he knows he will not. It makes sense. If he was upsetting himself over nothing like this, why, imagine what he'd do if he could open it whenever? He'd just constantly be upsetting himself!

"Now, my friend, let's return to building the Evil Empire."

"Let's!" agrees Xisuma, and just like that, the entire encounter slips from his mind.

#hermithorrorweek2023 #a bee fic #hermitcraft #xisuma #evil xisuma #emotional abuse #mind manipulation #(like genuine warning for emotional abuse here albeit like. somewhat subtle manipulation type.) #if this fic is late in my time zone. no it isn't. #anyway. i will never stop thinking about. whatever was going on between xisuma and evil xisuma in season 8. #anyway. ANYWAY. god one day i'll write the Very Dead Serious Take on that plotline. maybe this is one piece of it. #anyway the horror here is only barely the implied possession it's more the implied. emotional abuse. #GOD i will not stop thinking about the implications of that storyline whether intended or not #like. i'm forever like. did he INTEND to imply the abuse that so many of those cutscenes imply #or was he just trying to write evil xisuma acting like a villain? #anyway this isn't how i'd write evil x for any season that isn't season eight specifically btw you can blame it on jeff if needed

cowboy au worldbuilding with the thoma

as you can see im taking some creative liberties with the giant emu by making them more diverse bc canon isnt enough for me and i have the brainworms

extra notes below the cut

standard thoma:

the original thoma and most common type available

perfect for travel, can pull wagons or carry light cargo

fast with good stamina, fastest over short distances

friendly, intelligent, energetic and quick to learn

the most diverse in terms of colors, patterns and extra traits

well rounded in all departments (theyre like the AQ horses of trigun)

draft thoma:

uncommon outside of major cities (kept by specialized breeders)

used for construction work and long haul heavy cargo transport

gentle, patient and eager to work

not built for speed but can walk for days at a steady pace without rest

dense feather coat protects them from the heat and sand

expensive to maintain and keep due to their size

theyre a relatively new type that came from selective breeding

"wild" thoma:

actually feral (aka. previously domesticated), not wild

originating from lost/runaways that have not been in contact with humans for generations

rare and elusive with a small population, sometimes spotted living near shipwrecks

people will pay top $$ for their capture

begin to exhibit adaptive mutations that help them survive the wastelands

smaller and less fluffy than their standard counterparts

dont come in many colors, mostly bays, chestnuts and blacks

hardy with incredible endurance

very stubborn, temperamental and intelligent, cant be forced to do something they dont want (like donkeys)

rarely ridden, mostly kept for crossbreeding

cattle-type thoma:

related to the standard thoma but NOT the same species

common pack animal in caravans, sometimes ridden as a cheaper alternative to the standard thoma

mainly bred for meat, hide and eggs

kept in huge open range herds that travel along worm swarms for feeding

sometimes kept as a form for anti-worm pest control

keratin crests are lightweight and used for protection and display

ranchers will paint patterns on their crests as a form of identification

not the sharpest tools in the shed, tend to bite and trample people

#trigun #trigun stampede #cowboy au #worldbuilding #andr0art #i like speculative biology idk what to tell you #its the brainworms #sorry for the horrible handwriting btw #also ik that significant adaptive mutations take longer to appear than a 100 years #but lets say they adapt fast due to genetic modification #the implications of what seeds did after the fall to adapt to the wastelands fascinates me #since thoma arent native to no mans land iirc #did they just have them on board? #what ab other animals? #what kind of non-native wildlife is there #i know there are birds and like... a cat #<- still hasnt read trimax #everything i know has been obtained via tristamp and osmosis #also yes im bringing in the og thoma #diversity win! #i needed a substitute for cows so vash and wolfwood have something to herd for cash #living the cowboy dream baby!

Do new malevolent listeners know about the city full of dead Arthurs. Cause I know the christmas special isn’t ‘canon’ but in that context city of full of dead Arthurs could still win.

So what do you reckon Wild, like… saw?

Individual frames:

#my post #my art #linked universe #linked universe fanart #linked universe wild #lu wild #tw blood #my favourite pastime is looking at one off panels from literal years ago and going ‘you know what this needs? Implications :)’ #aka i find the concept of legend going ‘don’t you DARE break it’ while wild’s staring transfixed halfway to a full blown crisis amusing #if wild’s scars are on the wrong side no they aren’t shhhhh it’s fine we’re fine #(<- literally didn’t notice until after 28 hours of work and is NOT fixing it) #i spent SO long agonising over gif file sizes only to be like ‘oh. vibeo.’ it’s a video btw click play if it ain’t moving #k love you all i need. to look at something other than This for a bit. hugs and kisses

Uh maybe don’t reblog sarah Silverman the Zionist rn.. I get that she was in Star Trek but her actions right now, using her platform to dehumanize lots of Palestinian people isn’t the best

oh WHAT the fuck. Also sidenote you have absolutely got to start using other ways to communicate information about unfortunate reblogs than "ummmm reallyyy like maybe don't.... not the coolest... yikes supporting that" you can do me such a favor by just typing "you're gonna have to google 'sarah silverman palestine'."

#like you didn't say specifics so the idea is i'm needing to google it anyway. so just say that. #the implication that i know this but am choosing to support her bc she was in star trek... #insane btw. to go read her twitter right now. like actually #sergle answers

I'm pretty sure I've already made a post about cannibalism in hallownest but it still fascinates me the difference between a person bug and a food bug. You could say sentience but a good amount of bugs that are simply scurrying around have thoughts (dreamnail) and once tumblrblazed by the Radiance every bug tends to have narrow and simple thoughts, something else I froth over

The Deepnest bugs (are implied to) eat people, or do they eat bugs, is it out of disrespect of their humanity, or the culture. There could be a natural foodchainare aspect but maybe PK influence disrupted the structure. Are nosks people? I'd love to know what's up with nosks

Bugs were capable of thought before PK (tribes and communities existed before him or WL took power and the Radiance mothtribe seems very advanced) so it could have been a way of life where "cannibalism" had no definition. Imagine the furious debates PK got up too about citizenship and laws, god I love that silly colonizer worm

#these thoughts make no sense #but thats why i love this blog lol #this all came up because i was writing abt culture stuff for everybody in the group #n idk if Hornet would have cannibalism part of her culture #because is cannibal a realized concept to the people of deepnest #midwife is portrayed as crazy and the menacing aura of deepnest adds to the ''this is wrong btw'' implication of their practices #but theres also the question if that was an issue before or after pk #colonizer is used as a joke here btw i don't actually see the bug character as evil #i also think he may have fundamentally eradicated all preexisting ways of life out of ignorance and arrogance of his own order #equivalent of ''your not doing it right let me help'' on godlike levels

A little clarification on how Neuvillette addresses Furina in her story quest—in English it's rendered as "Miss Furina," and shortly after "Lady Furina," implying he uses a different honorific each time.

However, in both these lines Neuvillette actually uses 女士/nǚshì, the same way he has always addressed Furina in the past, barring the instances where he only uses her name, which he only does in private and generally not to her face.

When Furina asks the NPCs in the quest to stop calling her "Lady Furina," they switch from 大人/dàrén to calling her 女士/nǚshì/Miss Furina. Previously Neuvillette was the only character who called her that. When he did, it was always rendered in English as "Lady Furina," the same as the other more reverent honorific.

So no actual change between them in this regard, just the translation team finding themselves in a bit of a bind over how to translate it going forward where the two are concerned!

#furina #neuvillette #genshin impact #neuvifuri #focallette #this isn't really meant as a ship post unlike my usual fare but since it's of interest i shall tag anyways. anyone is welcome to enjoy. #you really gotta check the chinese to parse exactly how furina is addressed cos idt any of the other languages catch all the nuances of it #ex. japanese has both neuvillette and the knave calling furina 'dono' when the knave uses a different term from nv in chinese (xiaojie) #i dont claim to speak the language nor fully understand the implications of each honorific but even just knowing where there's a difference #is very enlightening. one of these days i'll finish up the draft i have compiling how each character addresses furina #i haven't checked the act v dialogue to see how neuvillette addresses furina there btw. all in good time. #genshin impact spoilers #furina story quest spoilers

hi don't mind me just thinking about how harley interpreted batman showing up at joker's execution in his dream as joker's desire for batman to save him (maybe from the execution maybe in general?) and the implication that she finally left him because his dream implied that if anyone were to save him it would be batman not harley...

#“the unbearable longing we all have for someone to save us” #like. hello??? #paul dini you can't do this to me #i'm just so fucking obsessed with the implication that somewhere subconsciously joker desperately wants to be saved by batman #btw the story is “the last smile” in the joker 80th anniversary 100-page super spectacular #batjokes
