#'I give it a try singing

[krazieka2]

Here's a big old Fire Emblem Search & Find I did for the FE3H Masquerade Zine! Find the Golden Deer, but see if you can't find the rest of the students as well! For the ultimate challenge, see if you can't name every character! (Disclaimer two characters are NPCs with no names)

So you’re telling me Neptor’s annoying ass gets a funeral and Old Moon acknowledges the importance of letting people grieve and say goodbye and stands by Dazzle and Jack while they bury him and even offers to sing for them but Sun has to walk by Nexus’s dead body and goes up to his room to quietly sob and Old Moon is like 🤷🏻‍♀️ lab time :)

Okay. Lmao. Alright.

i forgot fallout new vegas really is one of the games of all time. you're a cowboy. you're in a post apocalyptic america. there's the most insane larp war going on between a bunch of fascist ancient roman cosplayers, and a bunch of californians rping as the dead united states government. theres also a 200+ yr old man trying to play capitalism. you were shot in the head, double tapped even, and still crawled out of your grave. it's about the apocalypse, but more importantly, it's about what happens next. its even gay sometimes!

Did anyone notice that, in the exchange between Viktor and Reveck/Singed, it was Reveck who had the factually correct description of evolution? A permanent force of nature, adaptation fueled by violence and death.

Did you notice how Viktor was *wrong* in his description of evolution? How he said it has a destination, to supplant nature? Did you notice he is not describing Evolution, but Progress? Did you notice that he is talking like Jayce? And that the only thing that stopped him from following Reveck and giving him Vander was his own personal decency, his moral compass. Because in principle he agreed with what Reveck was selling, a rejection of nature, of death and of suffering?

Viktor exists in tension with himself. He is committed to progress, to helping people, but in the right way. Without leaving others behind, without collateral victims and force.

The same tension is reflected at the heart of Arcane, in the duality of order vs chaos. Neat and orderly, straight lines deco Piltover vs chaotic, chthonic, curvilinear nouveau Zaun. The cold control of Hextech vs the uncontrolled fury of Shimmer.

The thesis of Arcane is the (rather simple, basic) idea that one side of human nature cannot exist without the other, and attempts to escape this duality are tragically doomed to failure. There will be a Zaun to every Piltover. A victim left behind by every leap of progress. And if we forget this, the world will waste no time to reminding us. Tension against duality is always resolved, reinforcing duality.

Viktor fell into this trap. Confusing the two, trying to separate the duality. In his final moments he realized that his attempt to escape it was always going to fail. This slots neatly into his LoL-self's agenda of mechanizing humanity: if humanity's nature is inescapably bound to chaos, the solution is to leave humanity behind. Escaping the tension. Smashing the coin.

I almost hope they don't go that route. I hope he is dead, a tragic figure who attempted a gentle uplift of the poor and destitute but failed to account for the human factors leading to them. He doesn't need to become a fanatical robot man on a crusade against flesh.

But more importantly we do not need a stereotypical Bad Guy embodying axiomatically evil conformity and forcefulness. We don't need a simplistic, childish narrative about overcoming a demon. It is good that the show so far has stained every villain with empathy, every monster with love. It is good that each character embodies the inescapable duality, so that we can never have absolute good without absolute evil.

Arcane should not aim to provide villains or solutions. It is at its best when painting a beautiful picture of our malformed humanity. Anything more would lessen the impact. We need the coin landing on its side.

reread tiphs dialog recently. i love them lots

[crypticsketchpad]

what a nice happy group of siblings i sure hope nothing bad happens to them- oh

Eekto, the eldest; quiet, but responsible and loving towards its family / the quiet “head” of the family, always in danger of drowning in its own saliva

Nock, the second oldest; a lively chatterbox who tries to befriend anyone it meets / a lively chatterbox who tries to befriend anyone it meets, even if it can’t see how bleak its life is

Matrix, the middle; an aspiring inventor with a passion for technology / a misguided inventor with a passion for body modification but no regard for anyone but themself

Fraktal, the second youngest; a witty jewelry enthusiast who’s always there to help its loved ones / a mangled wreck, with whatever remains of its past self forever trapped in its decaying brain

Zyphur, the youngest; a shy and introverted lover of insects who looks up to all its dearly beloved siblings / a shy and isolated individual who wishes it was the one who died that day

holding Bakugou’s face in your hands and singing the cheesiest songs to him and watching him try to complain about everything even though he can’t help but love how everything sounds and how pretty your mouth is and admire how your lips curve around that one word. gets so entranced at the sight and sound of you, he doesn’t even realize how heavy his head has gotten in your palm, how low his eyes are, and how red his cheeks have gotten <3
