Complete review of the Bilgewater chapter from me spoilers below

Pros: - The ending was actually really funny - Pyke actually got some character stuff - The dumb Buhru magic thing that was written in his bio was actually??? False??? It actually didn’t happen for some reason??? That said I’m happy it didn’t because I hate the idea of it so it’s a pro - Gwen and Pyke become friends - Lucian has some really good lines in this chapter  - Lucian remembers Miss Fortune and they have mutual respect for each other (good callback to Burnig Tides) - The small “It’s a long story with a lot of characters” joke was cute - Senna losing her shit over Lucian deciding to make Pyke a sentinel was funny (intentionally) - The art for the sprites and backgrounds is as usual very good - The usual tonal issue with the event wasn’t that bad in this chapter, there weren’t any jokes when MF’s betrayal happened, all of them were either before or after (with the exception of Olaf describing his death as “epic drowning” but that was funny and in character so it worked) - The line where Pyke takes the oath and says “..and the saltwater that runs through my veins! And the tide that carried my body back from the grave!” is just a really good line but it also worked as a joke in the context which is nice

Cons: - Miss Fortune got character assasinated (literally) - She was so ooc???? For no reason??? Like I get it she doesn’t want to deal with GP that’s fair, but it was written in this weird way like she acted like a completely different character (like it’s so far from what we see of her in Burning Tides and Fortune Smiles) - Pyke’s dialogue is broken??? Like they write it like he’s dumb when we absolutely know he’s a smart man??? The LOR expansion with his new voice lines literally came out last month how did they fuck that up - They keep refering to Pyke like he’s a random creature which fair I guess since they’re wraith hunters, but it’s still kinda weird (especially for Senna who’s role up to this was yknow. to give a chance to the supernatural) - Also I hate to bring it up but Pyke is one of the few black characters in league and I find it kinda offensive that they wrote him like a wild beast that cannot comprehend human speech  -_- - This is an overal issue with the event, but the story is too fast paced... At the point where Rookie loses the Wayfinder it seems like it’s a big thing but then it solved INSTANTLY in the next scene Pyke pops out and gives it to them.. Like it feels like there’s something missing from there, the conflict with Lucian was too quick to do anything - The fucking sexual innuendo line with Viego and Miss Fortune was stupid and gross and OOC for BOTH characters - Miss Fortune betraying Graves was such a stupid decision I wonder how the fuck you even end up with it.  - PYKE DOESN’T KNOW MISS FORTUNE....and she’s not on his list before the betrayal plot (where he doesn’t even acknoledge it as one).... enough said about that if you’ve read at least one paragraph from Pyke’s lore you’d know how incredibly dumb this is - MF going from comfortable captain gear into the sexy ruined outfit (that’s a design issue and not a story one but still. it sucks) - Pyke saying that the Sentinels were a trustworthy crew was nice, but I feel like this would’ve been written better if instead of him calling them that instantly (after half of them but 3 people insult him the entire chapter), he rather felt sympathy for them after yknow. Captain Sarah fortune betrays them and tries to kill them. Like with his entire lore being that he was killed because his captain betrayed him. It’s not the biggest issue and it stands fine in the story, but I feel like it could’ve been written better

What I would’ve done instead so it ended up better: - Just make MF corrupted from the start... her getting paranoid about GP and betraying the squad BECAUSE she’s already getting corrupted instantly fixes everything in this chapter. Even if it’s not the best writing decision and a bit cliche, every other character that gets corrupted in the story receives something like this so it’s an alright decision - Not writing Pyke like he’s an idiot - From the last point - have Pyke actually acknoledge the situation so it makes a parallel with his lore and convinces him to try trusting the crew

Like these ^ are such minor changes and I feel like they wouldn’t make the chapter a dumpster fire... and this comes from someone who loves that region and it’s characters and writing. I knew it was going to be fucked up in the event from the start so I’m not that angry or surprised, just disappointed lol.

i hate my coworkers

so was someone gonna tell me h/e/a/t w%aves has more listens/streams than other glass animals songs because of the d%%sm%%p fandom or was i supposed to find out that way

[lolothesilly]

*kicking door down* 001 for the kirby series gogogo :)

THANK UUUU

001 | Send me a fandom and I will tell you my:

Favorite character: META KNIGHT..... he's been my blorbo since i was a little kid i LOVE that stupid gay orb 🥰🥰🥰 i also really like Escargon and Fumu from the anime!!! honestly most kirby characters are very comforting to me :D

Least Favorite character: ummmm H/altm/ann tbh 😩 he just gives me bad vibes. like "rich older white man who screams at mcdonalds employees" vibes. im not a fan of s/usie either but i appreciate her aesthetic and she can be pretty funny in fan works. (censoring names so it hopefully doesnt pop up in their tags)

5 Favorite ships (canon or non-canon): hehehe ok so. i have so much metadede brainrot its not even funny. so thats my number one. i think the other four would be.... kirby/prince fluff (kirfluff), galacta/hyness (galyness), captain vul/sir arthur (vulthur), and uhh maybe fumu/adeleine ?? (adefumu ???) idk if that last one is a thing but i think itd be cute!! either that or DMK/daroach (darkroach) :)

Character I find most attractive: umm uhh uh.... daroach??? maybe??? or meta knight or galacta or escargon or dedede.... can u tell im vincian lol

Character I would marry: escargon 🥺 i just think he's neat 💖

Character I would be best friends with: meta knight!!! i also think he's neat :) also hyness

a random thought: uhhhhh idk what to put here lololol maybe like.... i headcanon that meta and kirby are both autistic 💖

An unpopular opinion: hmmmm well i dont think d/amet/ameta is the spawn of satan which ive been told is a pretty unpopular opinion among some parts of the fandom lol? like i respect if people arent into it or arent comfortable with it but some of the vitriol i see around it is pretty baffling imo. theyre literally not related so there's really no moral high ground involved. its ok to just not like a ship? idk

My Canon OTP: metadede is probably the closest thing to a canon ship we're ever gonna get from this series which is fair enough

My Non-canon OTP: kind of covered this in "5 fave ships" but. metadede lol >w<

Most Badass Character: DMK tbh :) hes just a cool guy

Most Epic Villain: hmmmm i think............. its hard to think of most kirby villains as "epic" bc most of them are either cosmic forces with little personality, or absolute scrunklies. so i guess star dream?

Pairing I am not a fan of: m/etas/usie lol. just makes me uncomfy 🤷‍♂️

Character I feel the writers screwed up (in one way or another): DEDEDE IN THE ANIME SPECIFICALLY!!!!!!!! I CRY ABOUT THE WASTED POTENTIAL!!!!!!!!

Favourite Friendship: kirby and everyone :) haha for real though uhhh probably either meta & dedede (i love their partnership regardless of whether its portrayed as romantic or not) orrr kirby & bandee !!! or kirby and prince fluff. or kirby and fumu. or kirby and marx? kirby and dedede?? kirby and meta knight??? kirby and adeleine and ribbon?????? this gumball is full of SO much friendship yall

Character I most identify with: i literally kin meta knight 🥰

Character I wish I could be: hmmm idk tbh? daroach maybe bc hes so confident??

just remembered this one blog from back in the HIGH of the su cr*tical (only censored so it doesnt pop up in the tags) days, and honestly i still can’t remember if they were trolls or if they were for real. but they had this one mod named mod pearl i think? and they were artkin. which meant that they reblogged artwork from other artists and tagged it “my art” which of COURSE got questions that they answered by saying “oh no im ARTKIN its not art theft! to tag other peoples art as #my art!” and yeah maybe it wasnt THEFT but it was still weird

Just because a topic is bad or triggering to some people doesnt mean that it should be completely removed. The problem really lies in the labels that are applied to these works, and whether the reader is taking there time to read and sort them properly. If you as a reader refuse to take the tools offered to you to help you sort through the content that is put out then the problem lies in your apathy towards protecting yourself. I hate mentions of incest and it makes me uncomfortable in most situations it is talked about, but I go out of my way to look at tags and listed pairing so I know what I'm reading. I protect myself from content I dont want to see and I am a grown adult now, but this is something that I've been doing since I got into fanfiction at the tender age of 13. If I could look at pairings and glance at tags and warnings to protect myself then so can you. Now if your reading something and it pops up without warning, no tags or author's note in sight that doesn't give you free reign to freak out and attack the author, that just means that you should message the author and ask that they fill out the tags and pairing properly or at the very least put a warning. That's all you have to do and that's all you can do. If I write something that's an adult topic and you dont like it that's fine, your not the intended audience, it's only an issue on my part if I didn't give any warning for adult topics.

If we remove stuff that makes us uncomfortable I would be one of the people to remove star wars and Game of thrones out of existence because like I said I dont like incest in most ways, and really don't like how its portrayed in media. But In real life I dont talk smack or attack the creators of that content because I know that it's not meant for me and if I get even the slightest bit of an inclination that I might get triggered or even just awkward about it then I can just leave or stop viewing it.

Your not in the wrong to feel uncomfortable about a certain topic, and it's not your fault that you don't like it. That's fine and everyone has the right to feel that way, and no one has the right to tell you otherwise, but on the flip side you have no right to tell people they cant like those topics or write those stories.

And really as an Adult I'd like to see you try and censor me. I am in charge of what I like and what I write, just like you are in charge of what you like and what you read. Just take responsibility for yourself for once instead of trying to make someone else conform to what you desire. We aren't your parents, or any form of authority figure in your life, we dont even know who you are, and a good chance is we never will know. We wont care at the end of the day about what you read and whether or not you should be reading it or not, because that's not our job. If you need some responsible for what you do online and what you see then get your parents or any adult figure in your life to view it for you first if it's that big of a deal and your so against looking at tags and warnings.

Me being traumatized and not wanting that to happen to other kids makes me a bad person now :)) I’m disgusting :)) and horrible :)) and it’s my fault that happened :)) and everybody hates me more now :)) cool. Cool. Cool. Cool. Cool.

You are not horrible. And I do not hate you. It is not your fault that it happened. But things that are marked as adult very clearly are not for kids, and if you read it anyway it is on the people who should have been supervising you and did not intervene, or, assuming that you were old enough to know what ‘adult content’ means and chose to engage with stuff produced by adult fans for adult fans, on you for ignoring the warnings.

If a ten year old child goes to a library right now, and walks to the romance section and pulls down a book, that child’s guardians are responsible for saying “Hey now that is not for you.” If that same child comes back at thirteen and, knowing there is content in that book that adults do not want them to read, furtively hides away from guardian’s eyes and reads it anyway, that is not the fault of the library for having that book, or the author for writing it.

I am very sorry you’ve been hurt. But adults are going to produce content for adults, and if you ignore the guidelines set in place to keep kids out of that content, then that’s not the fault of the adults who wrote the stuff.
