#the second generation

[moonsofkrynn]

Lately, I've been reading any and all Dragonlance books I can get my hands on, and most recently finished The Second Generation. Having only now started Dragons of Deceit, I was tickled by the apparent difference in the book when it comes to Justarius's opinion on our good friend Dalamar—the dark elf mage that dated his daughter, Jenna.

Take a look at this excerpt of "The Sacrifice", from page 293 of The Second Generation:

If Justarius had sent them, he would have told her first, and she’d had no word from him in months, ever since their last quarrel. He strongly disapproved of her lover.

Compared with page 116 of Dragon of Deceit:

And although Justarius was a Red Robe, a follower of Lunitari, daughter of the god Gilean, and Dalamar was a Black Robe, follower of Nuitari, son of the goddess Takhisis, the two were friends.

...While I understand that these books were published decades apart...It is way more entertaining to pretend that Justarius's issue with his daughter's partner had nothing to do with the normal reasons Dalamar is maligned—Justarius just wants his friend back!

Jenna, please lend your poor father his study buddy back, he misses him!

Gumshoe is so attractive when you think about it. I mean this is the ideal man. Those shoulders. Those hips. That stomach I know he has and is kinda hinted at in the first image maybe capcom is just allergic to fat. Good with kids (ignoring the gun incident). Thoughtful. People argue about who’s more husband material Phoenix or Edgeworth but the real ideal husband is obvious

#honestly obsessed with his sassy little hip in the second one #ace attorney #dick gumshoe #general my post tag

so the occurrence that almost every woman was sexually harrassed by a man at some point in her life is just a cluster of a few individual experiences that you cannot formulate any general conclusions based on BUT a few reddit porn addicted losers not having a girlfriend assigned to them as soon as they're born or being rejected by three girls in middle school is a world scale epidemic that gets its own name, psychologists and media and useless video essayists devoted to finding out what its causes are and to figuring out how to solve it, and every woman is now responsible for solving it. i love living in this world i am totally not chewing on my arm right now!

#you can generalize or not. it only depends on whether men profit from it #last or like second to last post about male loneliness i promise <3 #moids are getting so boring about it anyway it's just that this cowboy guy from last night pissed me off #he kind of cleared andrew tate thought so i've decided i'm not making him my no. 1 enemy #radblr #radical feminists do interact

I'm just... post-bi-generation. Ah, it's more than that.

house's little laugh as wilson openly flirts with him through an MRI microphone is Doing Things to me

#they're just. they're #idk they're sure something #house md #hilson #damn it wait i just realized why this moment is getting to me so much #there is just something so *genuine* about it #like it's the tiniest little chuckle but #no one can see house right now #wilson can't see his reaction #he can't even hear house laugh because it's soundless except for the little breath house takes before returning the banter #house is in a ton of pain from his leg and he's self destructive and generally miserable #but just for a second wilson made him happy #and as tiny a moment as it is #there's something so precious about it because it's a rare moment of complete sincerity from house #and we know it's sincere because literally nobody can see him #so yeah as i said. it is Doing Things to me #house s02e13 #house season 2 #videos - house #op

style practices!! it was fun trying out different approaches

da screenshots:

#the process of the first one was actually my fav which is funny bc i barely ever draw like that #last one was line art/weight practice so i didn't put much effort into the colouring lmao #the second... i love the outcome but it was so annoying to do LOL #it's interesting balancing ''what do i want the final outcome to be'' with ''what am i actually bothered to draw'' #anyway yeag whatever #sth #sonic #sonic the hedgehog #shadow the hedgehog #sonic x shadow generations #sonic fanart #sonic art #art #fanart #digital art #artists on tumblr #vixenart

Random AU time, instead of being raised on earth realm and trained by the monks. Raiden is Li Mei's second in command and is naturally gifted with the powers of lighting/thunder.

#loookkk #i havent done an au drawing like this for a looong time and i got inspo from seeing dialogue from mk1 #like how liu kang wants raiden to train with the umgadi #and how he beat le mei in the tournament #also why does general shoa get a second in command but not li mei #so here i am #it also would be cute like two beings from seperate realms falling in love like mk9 KASD;DJKA #I also like to think raiden and kitana grew up together as raiden was trained to defend kitana from all forces since melina has tanya and #sindel has li mei #doodle #my art #art #mk1 2023 #mortal kombat 1 #kung lao #fanart #digital #doodles #mk1 raiden #railao #sundo raiden au

i love all the flavors of howdydarling art you make sm!! i've really been stuck on the drawings you did of wally with insomnia, i love the idea of howdy carrying his ass to bed when he shows up at the bugdega totally exhausted. i thought it'd be cute if wally stepped in to take care of howdy too when he's feeling overworked, or the two of them just collapsing into a nap pile at the end of a long day

It’s been raining all day and the vibes for cuddles n sweet shid is I m m a c u l a t e

Sometimes when I think about howdy and Wally, I think about them doing that specific lil wiggle/dance you can do with your followers in cult of the lamb smhhh (and frank really wanting to join but is very shy about it)

#Th e mb #Those three are my top favorites NDFHHDDJ #Howdy first Frank second Wally possibly third #Tho I will say I might like sally more than Wally specially with her having the chaotic personality headcanon #Absolutely love sally smhh absolute wholesome chaos #Oh yeah I still headcanon Wally and howdy to be aroace #Mostly because I can NDHGFDHDJDJ #But also I just love the thought that howdy is very generally loving and caring but when it comes to romance #He’s like- super flustered and has zero clues on how to be any of that #He tries his best smhhhh #welcome home frank #welcome home wally #welcome home howdy #welcome home eddie #howdy pillar #frank frankly #wally darling #Eddie dear #Wallypillar #Also Wally having zero clue either so they just kinda vibe and enjoy eachother’s presence #It’s nothing spectacular or ground breaking- #It’s very soft and loving with a lot of convos and understanding #And just having a good time smhhhh

gojo in jjk 236

i’m not one to advocate for prying away creative control from a creator’s (mangaka’s) cramped, overworked hands, and i understand that with oftentimes fandoms get so big that the story warps itself into something out of the creator’s control, but i do know what a good character arc looks like (i’ve seen it in this very story before) and i do know what public pressure can do to a creative mind.

that being said, keeping gojo dormant for more than a hundred chapters, then unsealing him only for him to gain nothing from his long-drawn out fight with sukuna is insane. i was assuming we were building up stakes in his character arc! i didn’t think he’d die prematurely without resolution! how could he be given a meaningless death when it was all he and geto talked about at one point?

gojo could’ve been living proof that change is possible and that fate is breakable. he was born after multiple cycles of six eyes and limitless users, he was born a baby-shaped building block, jujutsu’s atlas with the world on his shoulders. alone and untouchable. but he changed because he met geto. he changed because he met shoko, because he met megumi and yuuta and yuuji and every single character that has loved and cared about him. love changed him. to be loved is to be changed, and to have him go without an ending line to, “this is just a personal theory, but love is the most twisted curse of them all,” is such a loss. it’s like a sentence without a full-stop, abruptly cut short with no continuation.

i initially thought that he’d be weakened by sukuna, but then his allies would come running to back him up—there is strength in solidarity! his true strength should’ve stemmed from solidarity and love! interdependence and connection should’ve been the peak of his character arc! why did we end up with nothing even after tens of chapters of him fighting for his life? why did every other character sit still instead of using their advantage in numbers?

but i do see where gege is headed. with gojo gone, the baton has been passed onto the next generation. there is no longer a biological “hierarchy” of power amongst the sorcerers (to an extent), and perhaps sukuna himself will falter because the balance of the universe was pulled from under their feet. besides love, jjk is also about generational second chances: sashisu and itakugifushi; toji and maki; geto and yuuji and yuuta; geto walking to tengen’s quarters alone, delivering riko almost hesitantly, and yuuji waking to tengen’s quarters with megumi, yuuta, choso, and yuki. silhouettes in the dark of the tunnels. hell, you could even count yaga as a teacher and gojo as a teacher. or yaga’s CT and how he gave a child another chance at life. yuuji’s multiple resurrections. kenjaku and tengen. i get it, i do—i understand what gege’s trying to do here, but i’m tired of him using these characters as plot devices instead of giving them the resolution they deserve. (especially for jjk’s cash cow…he deserved more than a rushed end.)

i do hope that that one theory about gojo only being able to die if his head is cut off is true. but even then, after all of the fake outs we’ve had to read, that would be a shitty cheap shot. i’ll try to have faith; even that is wavering.

#jjk #jujutsu kaisen #jjk leaks #jjk 236 #gojo satoru #gojo #ugh this was so rushed #i’ll fix it later #i was gonna makes a long post and love and generational second chances but i need to process this leak first geez #putting that to the backburner ig
