And the thing is, there IS a hierarchy! Fate has declared the Hylians superior.

“Here, you must save Hyrule from the guy we’re going to allow to suffer, get spiritually and psychologically screwed by the soul-parasite fragment of an ancient demon-god, and sometimes outright torture until he fucking snaps.”

It’s one of my biggest pet peeves in fantasy, like, evil being predestined and evil being going against the status quo are fundamentally incompatible and I’m fucking sick of those two themes constantly being put together.

The TL;DR of last post is I don't think Ganondorf is a good person, I think he is a weird melodramatic person obsessed with personal superiority and he views the world in a brutal hierarchy where he is the gamer boy he is the ONE WHO WINS and if you are interacting with him at all you are also clearly trying to Win and thus you're an enemy and he's going to do everything he can to manipulate and/or destroy you to his gain,

but also I can't especially hate him even if his actions are destructive because the dude has also spent Longer Than Civilizations being run over by the fates like a Road Runner cartoon where Wily E Coyote's agony of being folded like an accordion are rendered in way too much detail to be comfortable and also we made the Road Runner a cute girl with trauma to frame his desperate pursuit therein as actively despicable.

This is perfect not only for cuteness, but because owls are associated with magic and the Fairy type is basically themed around cuteness and/or sorcery.

YER A WIZARD BEDE

The perfect guy to let you know if your pants are unzipped is the guy that stands at the height of your zipper 😂

There’s this new guy at the office

Trying to get back into Deltarune while knowing that there’s no longer a real desire for gen fics is hurting my soul

wild animals don’t have “mutuals.” you know what they have? predators and prey. and to me, the blue site is nothing but the serengeti on a hot afternoon

EDDIEEEEEEEEEEE

I'm still figuring out how to draw him

I LOVE THE GUARDIAN OF METAL TOOOOOOOO

My favorite character from one of the most underrated games that I love

[swoodthis]

OH BOYYYY so I love the idea of him with:

Skeledirge (they literally sing to the souls of the dead, just like the Song of Healing! Also they’re the final evolution of Friendly Little Guy Fuecoco!)

Greavard/Houndstone (Spupper. Spoopy pupper. Also I headcanon him as smol so RIDE THE DOGGOOOOOO)

Mimikyu (He would absolutely make a tiny walk-in closet full of little outfits)

Sylveon (With the Hidden Ability Pixilate. AND HYPER BEAM.)

Cofagrigus (Turns out baby soul masks can get frickin STRONK)

and TOGEKISS.

The Togepi line is associated with bringing happiness.

THEY ARE ALSO TANKY ARCANE POWERHOUSES. Serene Grace with Air Slash and Ancient Power will rip you a new asshole. Aura Sphere never misses and has type advantage against 3 out of 5 types that have type advantage against a Togekiss.

Also he’d be TERRIFYING with Ogerpon. He could sweep the Elite Four with Ogerpon. This is the guy who could make Ogerpon a custom mask with the most broken stats and moveset imaginable.

i present my favorite little (lying hes apparently really tall canonically) silly man from the legend of zelda, the happy mask salesman ngl i feel in my heart that his partner pokemon would be ogerpon but i wonder what you would think (betting 12 pennies that you're gonna say either yamask or maybe mr mime if you're cool /j /silly)

I know nothing about this character, so your idea of Ogerpon might be the most accurate compared to my opinion ahah

I want to say Galarian ponyta because I think the bright colors and unicorn look lends itself well to a salesman who plays a piano. It’s colourful and welcoming, which is beneficial.

I also thought maybe Cricketot based purely on the piano playing and I feel like it would just fit his face somehow

But I’m going to settle on giving the happy mask salesman a galarian ponyta!

SAME!!!!!

I’m very much aroace and it HURTS to see people just. Not care about anything outside of shipping.

tried to filter the spamtenna tag and searched up "spamton" and it is the funniest thing ever. like, there is literally nothing but spamtenna LMAO

kinda annoying bc im not a spamtenna shipper (i dont rlly ship anyone in deltarune aside from suselle) and sometimes i just wanna see platonic spamton posts / spamton only posts, but hey i dont make the rules, the fandom does, and the fandom says THATS TOO DAMN BAD!!

[swoodthis]

I miss writing Zelda fics… but… I really hate how themes of “light good dark bad, divine right of kings, no thinking allowed” have just. Nearly completely taken over everything. I feel like a fake constantly trying to make up ways to avoid them. But it’s by FAR the one fandom I have with a noticeable acceptance of platonic fics… I’ve tried to find more fandoms, but it’s not working… idk what to do.

I will FIGHT YOU if you say my white ass can’t have shawarma. You fuck with the holy trinity of chicken, rice, and baklava, you die. If I can’t eat that, I’ll eat YOU motherfucker! /lh

In my experience as a third culture kid who travels a lot the best indicator that you as a non-x is appreciating x culture is if the locals actively invite you to participate in it with them

Yes, you are allowed to buy those handmade Inuit winter clothes if an Inuk is literally selling them to you. They would not be offering you a price point if they didnt want you to buy and wear them. And you might discover that theyre the best winter clothes youve ever worn because of COURSE they would be if theyve kept this culture warm in harsh winters for thousands of years.

Yes, you are allowed to join those Cambodians in that local holiday theyre celebrating during your visit if they literally invited you to it. They would not have invited you if they didnt want you to participate. And in the process you might learn a lot about a culture you never wouldve interacted with and you can all have a laugh together about your clumsy but genuine attempts at getting your footwork right in one of their traditional dances.

Yes, you are also allowed to ask if you can participate in something from the local culture you are visiting. Sometimes you will get "sorry, thats a closed practice" but in my experience most of the time you'll get "of course, let me show you how to do this!" And in my experience people tend to appreciate when others make an active effort in sharing their culture and wont stone you to death if youre clumsy about it while youre learning. I guarantee that the local children doing all of this for the first time too make the same mistakes you do and they can tell if youre being disrespectful or genuine.

So much "cultural appropriation" discourse really starts to sound like "you cant participate or visit any other cultures if youre from a Colonial Culture and have to stay in your little box and never relate to other people"
