#this is so messy dont worry about it

[ofswordsandpens]

thinking about how the (greek) big three swore to never sire any more demigod children because those children are just too powerful (dangerous) and also thinking about how the characters that, arguably, seem to have the greatest proclivity for cruelty in the name of justice or vengeance are also the (greek) big three children... there's something there, a connection to be made I'm sure of it

#and its not just cruelty... #its like this spiraling into... darkness? power? #for percy and nico at least #thalia we dont get to see as much and I need to reread ttc #but like... she's SO tempted by power #its like she has to actively fight against those base instincts to rule (like her father) #when she chooses the hunters #she removes her role (her power her agency) in the great prophecy #and idk I feel like there's subtext there that she's worried what she would have done had she been the prophecy child #but sincerely there's something about greek big three kids thats off kilter #and that aspect only gets more pronounced as time goes on and they get older #like not only are they scarily powerful #but their mental states are just... messy #almost like in comparison to other demigods #they're a little more god a little less mortal if that makes sense #and they have to fight to maintain that mortality (their humanity)

telling myself i can't start another tdwt rewrite but dear god do i want to write one focusing on alejandro and courtney in this weird situationship thats a lot more nuanced than just alejandro manipulating courtney and her falling for it. like theyre best friends they dont trust each other theyre the same person they dont know anything about the other one theres a mutual attraction theyre pining for other people theyre codependent they dont care about each other theyre platonic soulmates like i just want to do a deep dive into how messy that relationship couldve been building off of their friendship that exists in my head except the line between romantic and platonic is so fucking blurred they have no idea what they are to the other person

#they live rent free in my head as you can tell #ive been writing some intense moments for them in amicus curiae and im having a lot of Feelings about platonic alecourtney #tbh the whole concept of them replacing the best friends has been a great avenue for me to do a deep dive into their friendship #aughhhh i just. love them so much #and i do want to explore them in a situation where there is relationship potential even if that relationship never actually happens #because everything between them during tdwt could be so MESSY!! #like alejandro says he's just manipulating courtney but he's also doing it to make heather jealous but he's also genuinely worried about he #after the duncan thing but this is the only way he knows how to express that concern without making himself look weak #meanwhile courtney is falling for the act but she also knows its an act and is going with it for the emotional support it provides and shes #just doing it to make duncan/gwen jealous but she also is starting to see the real alejandro underneath it all because he does care even #though he doesn't want to and they do feel a strong connection that they dont know whether its platonic or romantic because romance is bein #shoved down their throats on this show and theyre both in complicated romantic dynamics with other people that theyre the easier option for #one another but they dont really want to be with one another like it just doesnt feel right #okay okay i legit have to stop and go to bed but just. them. im thinking so hard about them #platonic alecourtney

[acaciapines]

Please tell us abt the parallels :o

YEAH OKAY SO!!!!

in this au (and as i write ralsei in my canon always lol) the biggest thing that puts pressure on ralsei's life is the prophecy--it says a human, a monster, and a prince from the dark, and because it is a prophecy, and it is fate, is HAS to be true, and ralsei, as a darkner, a group of people who literally exist below the lightners, is charged with bringing this prophecy into fruition. she has spent her entire life ALONE, with nothing but this prophecy for comfort, saying that one day, ONE DAY, she'll get through this and she'll have friends. but yknow, that weighs on a person! its heavy and terrible and she has contorted herself to fit what fate tells her she must be.

and then for noelle, the big thing putting pressure on her? her dead siblings (dess and kris. kris isnt technically her sibling but yknow for ease of language thats what i use. also we know they arent dead but noelle and the rest dont). with their deaths means noelle is now the baby of the family, a family that is shaped by this great gaping grief noelle cannot comprehend, because when dess and kris died she was young enough she barely remembers them beyond like, maybe half-formed memories but she isnt sure if those are real or just what people have told her. shes expected to be grieving her dead siblings but really she just sort of. hates them a little bit. for going off and dying and now her mom and toriel are super overprotective of her, and she knows its her fault asriel never left to go to college and hasnt even left hometown, and its just. its rough.

so both noelle and ralsei have these Huge things that have defined their lives that neither of them want, but. too bad! WHICH LEADS TO EVEN MORE PARALLELS. slash foils lol.

because when it comes to the prophecy? noelle isnt supposed to be in it!!! while this au is sort of a roleswap in that noelle takes kris's place its not a roleswap in Any Other Way, which means, yeah, the prophecy is still supposed to be a human. and noelle, uh, isnt that! but she goes around and helps close dark worlds and is part of the delta warriors anyways, which is, for ralsei, this like, really scary point.

cause ralsei? adores noelle!! thats her best friend!!! ralsei doesnt know if she has a crush on noelle or wants to be noelle! noelle just does what she WANTS. she bucks against the pressures her family puts on her. she dives into the dark despite the fact that this world was never made for her. shes TRANS. shes a GIRL, and she can just DO THAT, and ralsei looks at her, and just. wants. in every sense of the word.

because noelle has all these things put on her like ralsei does--but noelle gets to slip out of them. noelle gets to be a person.

and ralsei, non-person, darkner: she doesnt.

she never will.

#drkau #deltarune #I LOVE THEM. I LOVE THEM SO MUCH..... #also she/her used for ralsei here but at this point in time ralsei is Not out lol. like not even to herself #god its so messy its SO MESSY but dont worry of course they get a happy ending <3 #ralsei has an antagonist arc for a bit (mix of prophecy + jealously + the human soul which yes is a player here) #and yknow who goes after her. thats right noelle. and susie cannot forget susie #and its just. god. i care about them all so much okay. this au truly has everything #i mean i wrote it so of course it does BUT. #DRK AU MY BEST FRIEND #also can you tell how anti-fate i am from this lol #its sooooo obvious in this story sorry i simply reallllllly dislike fate and how its portrayed in a lot of things #its the same reason i take issue with soulmate aus. i simply think the world Would Be Worse #and if you arent pushing it to that conclusion what is the point #BUT THATS ANOTHER TOPIC THIS IS A POST ABOUT NOELLE AND RALSEI DELTARUNE

[arsonistshub-a]

i still say i do kinda vibe with the aegosexual label. though tbh im not sure if its mostly due to trauma or not I am a sexual person but i do not like being touched. I enjoy the imagination / thought of it over actually doing anything

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

#¯\_(ツ)_/¯ idk dudes its just fun to imagine #the mind is so much stronger than anything physically replicated #especially since in fantasy you dont have to worry about real life trauma #and literally only enjoy the parts you want #with the ability to stop whenever you dont want to continue #vs real life which it gets messy and gross

[lollytea]

Are you at all concerned about how they'll handle Hunter in the last two episodes? It's been really concerning to me how he's been sidelined in the past two episodes, by the draining spell and possession. He hasn't gotten to really do anything significant in TTT, as he was excluded from the Blood hunt& failed to warn them of Belos, and now he's lost Flapjack, so he'll struggle even more in combat. I'm slightly concerned, plus they're setting up ANOTHER Belos V Luz., which we don't need again.

Um. No. I'm not concerned about Hunter in the slightest. I think it's an agree to disagree situation but I can't wrap my brain around any of this.

I don't think Hunter was sidelined in King's Tide at all. He did plenty. He had just as much of a role as Amity, Willow and Gus did. And if you're referring to the fact that he was incapacitated by the Draining Spell, that didn't really sideline him either? He fought and he fought until the last few minutes when he physically couldn't anymore. If you're referring to the fact that it was Luz that handled most of the Belos confrontation rather than him, then....no. Hunter, at this point in his arc, was not ready to confront Belos. He was not ready to fight Belos. He was still utterly terrified of Belos. That's the reason he didn't do anything "significant."

And like. Man idk where to start with the whole Thanks to Them part. He was the deuteragonist of that episode. To say he was sidelined because he didn't participate in the blood hunt is like....he had a whole subplot all to himself about finding his own identity, while Luz's four other friends had to share one between them.

I think what I'm not getting here is what you'd define as "significant." Because I feel like he's done a ton. Not everything about Hunter's arc is rooted in progressing the plot or having badass moments. A lot of it is character based. And if you don't consider Hunter's huge moment of standing up to Belos near the end to be significant then...man idk what to tell you.

Also I feel like this is a little dismissive of the Luz and Belos relationship, which is pretty important too. Obviously it's not as layered as Belos and Hunter and I'm pretty certain that will have a satisfying conclusion too, but Luz and Belos are narrative foils. I'm not gonna dig into it right now but it kinda fucks hard and I won't complain if there's more of it. But I guess that's a matter of opinion so I won't knock you for that.

Anyway if you haven't liked the direction they took with Hunter's role in the story thus far, you might be disappointed by the upcoming episodes.

I know I won't. At least not when Hunter is concerned. I'm more worried about characters like Willow and Gus.

#the writing on toh gets a little messy sometimes #but hunter.... #they clearly put a lot of effort into hunter's arc. hes one of the strongest written in the show #so like. i dont worry about HIM. i worry about his buddies who dont usually get the same treatment that he does

xenoblade 1 is interesting because when I first played it I had really mixed feelings. mostly I think because it had been slightly overhyped for me. there were so many videos with masterpiece in the description and people saying it was their favorite.

there was a lot that first turned me off during the story (namely the way it handled its female characters made me frustrated at multiple points) and also how they handled the revenge arc because I have very very specific taste in revenge arcs and I just dont think it landed for me. 

I think I appreciate it a lot more now that im fully deep into the series. I do like a lot about it, from its gameplay to its environment to a lot of the little cast interactions, to just shulk existing. yeah. yeah its alright

#I remember when fiora died and dunban reyn and shulk were all talking about it I couldn't help but just be acutely aware they'd killed off #the only girl in the cast for their revenge quest and it put a sour taste in my mouth. at least we got sharla soon after who they ALSO did #dirty :(((( and they do bring fiora back but man. girl you've been through so much and have a GOD in your body but all you can think about #is how your bf will feel are you serious. its like they saw the backlash to shion and went ok women no more being realistically upset for #you gotta wait like another game or two :/// you get to never confront or be mad about the guy who stabbed you or the guy who wanted you #brainwashed and also forcibly altered your body irreversibly no your boyfriend gets tobe mad about it. be nice and optimistic darnit #and every lady in the party has their story tied to a romantic relationship in some waytoo. l'man. at least melia got her moment in fc #and its like. its odd bc I dont really DISLIKE any of the major 1 characters its on a scale from liking them to being upset on their behalf #like you have so many charming moments and interactions and I WANT to like you. but they just did you so dirty :(((( #idk ive wanted to get that out there for a while. I have very messy feelings on 1 which is kinda ironic bc a lot of people considered it the #less controversial one for a long time lol. and it is. but still. #siren says #xenoblade #xenoblade chronicles #im constantly on my hater arc btw but I only let it out occasionally bc I am constantly worried of backlash online. I keep my bitching to #friends mostly lmao and oh do they know all about it

[olliecoded]

thank u to the person who called me a "transtrender" and said i'm faking it and not queer enough and learned about queerness through tiktok etc etc. all because i made the absolutely fucking buck wild claim that we should let bi lesbians live their lives in peace. wow

#keira don't look #<- it wasn't keira they just know the person im talking about and this was AGES ago i dont want them to know im still upset about it hehe #anyway for context i was talking about how attempts to place queer people into rigid boxes & draw unbreakable lines in the sand r always #going to fail bcs queerness is complex and messy! and human beings sometimes have identities that don't fit neatly under one label! #and the people who say shit like ''aphobes terfs and anti-neopronouns dni'' r the same people who now bully mspec lesbians #like. ur exclusionism isn't better just because it's ''woke'' this time. it's still bigoted tee hee #ANYWAY IN SUMMARY. i was just saying that i don't think it's our business to police how others identify and why they do so #and this person starts saying that im only queer bcs of tiktok and saying that i cant have an opinion on queer issues #and that im faking being trans #which is. incredibly hurtful especially bcs im bigender genderqueer genderweird etc so exactly the kind of trans person that exclus hate #and it's like. is this what people do? they just start trying to kick queer ppl out of our own community when they dont like what we're #saying?? #sorry i think about this periodically and it makes me really upset it's like. keep trying to define the entire fucked up weird spectrum of #human attraction and gender and then make everyone use ur definitions. dont worry bro itll work this time. #queerposting #<- i talk in depth about queer issues sometimes so ill start using that tag for ppl who dont wanna see the discourse

not that id ever want a job, and in reality if me and sans lived together hed probably be the one mostly responsible for our income on account of his countless fucked up jobs, BUT. i love the thought of sans being a cute shitty little househusband sending me off to work with a kiss and a lunchbox except the lunchbox is just, like, a compact bomb of as many sausages and a gross slurry of a million fucked up condiments as he could fit in there

#i try to open it and it just blasts me in the face like a pomegranet or an envelope bomb or something #theyre so doused in various condiments i dont even have to chew them i just slide them down my slippery gullet like its nothing #maybe sometimes he makes something other than that. but im sure its equally repulsive #like just. slams together shit in a pot and cooks it for a little while and calls it a day #cherry bomb #bf (bone friend) #this is‚ of course‚ all set in a potential universe where me and sans live together ALONE #if paps was there he would be so so much better at making lunches for me. so much fucking better #'but papyrus is a terrible chef' shut UP that was in the UNDERGROUND!!!! where he didnt have COOKBOOKS!!!!!!!! #and also his mentor was INSANE #anyway me and sans couldnt fucking possibly live together without anyone else mediating nobody would get anything done ever #it would be so messy and shitty and gross oh god. jesus christ #anyway that was todays dose of domestic skenp and sans ramblings except it probably wouldnt actually be like that at all #of course my made up ideas and rules for this specific selfship takes place in a world where we conveniently Dont Think About All That Shit #'what do you do for work how old are you where do you live where are your family members' the answer is dont even worry about it #i only think about the fun silly stuff and occasionally the not fun less silly but still conveniently vague stuff #you wouldnt get it.
