Sometimes i wonder how much the venom effected Garmadon, even when he got purified from it, or when it didn’t have such a strong effect on his mental state anymore.

Because the devourers venom was with Garmadon since childhood. It was one of the first and will be one of the last things he ever understood so wholeheartedly. Like a disease you’ve gotten far too comfortable with after years of having it. Garmadon never truly knew life without the venom, so he and the venom essentially became one.

I look at Sensei Garmadon and wonder how he questioned how much he truly cared for Wu and Misako at that point. I think he continued to have the intrusive thoughts that constantly followed him around, and now that he no longer has the venom to specifically blame, he knows he is one of the most horrifically disgusting people alive as he unwillingly imagines things he wouldn’t(but could’ve) do.

He is split between keeping himself away from Lloyd and being the father he knows the other needs and so he runs off far away. He hides and hopes his son won’t have the time to visit in his little dojo.

He feels his heart beat as its ripped to pieces when he learns that Misako will follow him. That the love of his life won’t leave him like how he left her, yet he is terrified knowing what he could be capable of.

And as much as he wished to cry in a corner about it, he is constantly thankful that his relationship with Wu is far too messed up for the other to happily follow him along anywhere.

I think Garmadon, no matter what happens, could never escape the effect the venom had on him. The venom is him and he is the venom and he will never avoid that. It is apart of him, in such a deeply intimate way.

Alastor and Lilith giving Lucifer a combo of degradation and praise kinks had been stuck in my mind, but how about not in the way I originally imagined??

It hits Lucifer harder when Lilith is the one who does degradation and Alastor is the one who does praise!

thinking about crowley and "my lover's got humor, she's the giggle at a funeral" and "knows everybody's disapproval, i should have worshipped her sooner" and "if the heavens ever did speak then she's the last true mouth piece" and "the only heaven i'll be sent to is when i'm alone with you" and "my lover's the sunlight" and "i was born sick but i love it" and "there is no sweeter innocence then our gentle sin"

ok not to be insane but the whole tom putting the bidding sticker on greg situ is SO indicative of their entire relationship bc its all about Tom’s desire for control and ownership over something (due to him feeling powerless and out of control in his relationship with shiv). Him putting that sticker on Greg wasnt just a hehe ill look after you way it was much more ‘I own you. You are reliant on me now and I OWN you’. Which is a sentiment that is the very FABRIC of their relationship, calling back to the ‘I will not let go of what is mine’ water bottle scene. Obsessed actually

I'm afraid Oon is not surviving this show, with an average of three gay panics by episode she's the one who'll end up in a coma !

AHEM ! KAIRO ?

this little snippet has me soooo curious ! i don’t think i’ve ever read a kenjaku x reader fic , but a kenjaku! reader ???? unheard of to me, but it sounds so delish ! like i’m frothing at the mouth—your brain is *chefs kiss* 🙂‍↕️ (of course)

also ! i saw your tags gf. suguru suffering…yaaaayyy !! cheered ! love the angst, love the guilt, love the rage and complex feelings towards duty. you are WICKED. and TALENTED AND I AM JUMPING OFF THE WALLS WAITING TO READ THIS 🫠 and reader telling suguru to control himself…jjjgghj i am so eager to read this omgee. kairo you are one of my fav writers, and you will be the death of me / aff

LETTA I LOVE YOU SO MUCH DO YOU KNOW THAT�� omfg it makes me giggle & kick my feet to hear you say that hehe <333 i love the idea of kenjaku taking over the body of suguru’s ex-non-sorcerer beloved who suguru himself killed with his own hands… the amount of guilt that would consume him when he realizes that kenjaku SOLIDIFIED your death would be insane . i have another wip that involves kenjaku and that one is about reader becoming one of suguru’s cannibalizing curses 🩷 something that also makes suguru throw up with regret and guilt and shame… suguru who can’t bear to look in the mirror after he realizes what he’s done my beloved <3

AND OMG YES THE COMPLEX FEELINGS TOWARDS DUTY!!!!! he can believe in his cause all he wants but i think realizing the extent of his chaos & violence & how he truly and honestly knew he wouldn’t be able to rid the world of non-sorcerers but rid his OWN world of it kinda haunts him. at the end i think he’s like… why the fuck did i doom the person i claimed to love and now myself… AND HEHE KENJAKU!READER TELLING HIM TO CONTROL HIMSELF AFTER HE THROWS UP EVERYWHERE IS MY FAVORITE… he sees a look of disgust/callousness in your hardened eyes that he’s never seen before and it’s all his fault it’s just VERY delicious to think about for me :3

ALSO HELLO??? YOU ARE THE MOST KINDEST PERSON EVER did you know wicked is one of my favorite words i love being called wicked :> AND TALENTED??? baby that’s YOU 🫵🏼 also don’t make me cry sniffles and hiccup… don’t say i’m one of your favorite writers unless you’re ready 2 wipe my tears… YOU’RE ONE OF MY FAVORITE WRITERS TOO AND I HOPE YOU KNOW THE SUGURU REGENCY KINK FIC WILL CHANGE MY BRAIN CHEMISTRY I’M SO HYPED 🙂‍↕️🩷

ernest's plot was executed MUCH better in the anime, in my opinion, and that's largely because in this version of the story he didn't have it out for the seven dragons from the get-go. he just "knew" someone had betrayed his grandfather and his family, and wanted to find out who. he only learned of the seven dragons' involvement much later on, after already having lived most of his life: including attending gressenheller, becoming kat's assistant, and helping the seven dragons during investigations.

one of my gripes with the version of his story in the game is that he's supposedly had this specific, burning hatred for the seven dragons his entire life, but this somehow doesn't affect his actions at all until the very moment he enacts his revenge plot on them - which is ridiculous, whether or not ernest was so single-minded about it or not! it's much more plausible in this version, where his desire for revenge was always somewhat nebulous, as he didn't yet know who to blame for his family's plight: that anger was strong enough to push him forward, but not so precisely focused into hatred that it should be odd for him to reasonably live life normally outside of it. it makes more sense in this scenario that his promise to his mother should channel primarily into his becoming independent, rather than actually getting revenge, as he spent most of his life not even knowing who to get revenge on; in the meantime of not being able to fulfill the latter half of the promise, why not work on the former?

anyway, in terms of these specific screenshots... i don't think the game specifically described ernest as a "weak" boy, but that's how i always interpreted him to have been: lacking his own will and dependent on others for direction, particularly family members like his mother. after all, this all was a promise to her... and for all of ernest's growth as a person, you can see how many of his childhood weaknesses have carried over into adulthood: among other things, he's eager to assist katrielle to the point of being servile to her, and notably she's a very passionate, bold, and kind person herself. ernest is more than happy to be told what to do, when the person directing him is strong and makes him feel safe! aside from having a crush on her, he likely admires her on a personal level... because she's brave, which he's always found difficult to be himself.

something which i'll never forgive the anime for, though, is paralleling ernest to emmy in the end: having him wish to leave katrielle's side as her assistant out of a feeling of guilt. that just breaks my heart! they didn't need to do that to me! fortunately, though, kat comes by with more tasks for ernest to help with, and he returns to her side... some things never change, it seems!

I love the ember knights whole thing w Power cuz like. It's funny how nagyuun is the weakest person surrounded by insane crazy batshit powerful ppl at all times. And he has an edge entirely Because he's powerless like how zius once kinda said that powerful ppl don't consider situations like he can cuz being strong can make em narrow-minded.

N like I see always the whole 'nagyuun needs to have something' and that he Must be good at something. But. He Is? Like. His powerlessness is his what makes him powerful.

Idk it's kinda like an inverted mob psycho 100 bskscbskdv I mean nagyuun isn't a powerful guy tryna be normal instead he's the world's weakest bitch cosplaying as The Strongest Guy Ever

consumerism.

Not of objects. Not me doing the consuming.

I am being consumed by my own worst self.

This painting depicts it very well: It has gotten to a point where the one who is consuming me is becoming me. There is not much left other than some very deconstructed parts of myself.

The consumer consists of anger, pain, longing, lust, sin and sadness.

I feel trapped, I feel eaten, I feel not myself.

How do I take the power back I once gave to it?

How do I rise above the suffering and take back what was once mine?

When all I long for is for it to take responsibility for consuming me. For it to have enough heart to apologise for consuming me.

But anger and pain and sadness do not have a heart. They just take with no care. Because I let it.
