Hello fellow MILAOWM fans, the following post will contain mostly screaming and comments on the latest chapter (chapter 103).

AAAAHHHHHHHH THE MANHUA HAS COME FULL CIRCLE GUYS OMG WE WON 🎉🎉🎉

Y'all I was worried (like I'm sure most of us were) on how Seungu was going to handle the introduction chapter in the future, especially when they made the decision to take the story to another level (with more nuance) after deviating from the novel canon.

With all changes in storyline as well as fleshed out character and relationship development Seungu has done for all of the main cast, the differences between their first appearance and their current personalities now is clear as night and day. So the concerns for how they were going to address chapter 0 narratively with all the (wonderful and thought provoking) changes they made with the characters were definitely warranted. I had my own questions such as:

Were they going to ignore or deny it's existence? (Unlikely)

Or are we going to see a shift in the characters', specifically Therdeo's, personalities in the future? Where he becomes more comfortable in expressing his emotions in public like in the introduction? (Weird, because Therdeo is someone we know who loves and emotes privately. If the future him entails that he completely changes to that extreme within a year, it's quite jarring and doesn't seem fit narratively)

And we finally get our answers in Chapter 103! In hindsight, I should've never doubted Seungu. I would've never guessed that whole lovey-dovey display from Therdeo and his family in the beginning was all just an act!! Well, I'm sure their feelings on display weren't all just playing pretending but the exaggeration on their love for her being all for show to further establish Pereshati's position in the family was a genius move! Both narratively and a decision from the manwha artist/author!

Side by side for reference!

The way that Therdeo was nervous and hyping himself up before his performance (of a life time and written by Celphi!!) was so nerve-wrecking but also sweet because he's doing this for Pereshati!! *crying and wailing pathetically*

THE MAN WAS TREMBLING ONG ˚‧º·(˚ ˃̣̣̥᷄⌓˂̣̣̥᷅ )‧º·˚ and the way Pereshati noticed almost immediately and went along with it despite being confused about the direction of this plan!! Stop making me fall in love with you Pereshati, why are you so emotionally competent!!! In my next life, I'll transmigrate to live with her.

She's so worried for him and he's doing this to make sure nothing like what occured during the Hunting Event happens again. I love them so much, they complete each other ong ( ;´ - `;). I just love what they have.

I'm gonna wait patiently for Webtoon to update to this chapter because I'm broke and I'm in love with Pereshati's and Therdeo's love (+ the Lapileons).

Finding out that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wrote a short story that included the RMS Olympic being shot and sank by submarine torpedoes, way before WW1 even started, is actually really funny to me. Purely cause of the fact that in WW1, two attempted to do that... and the Olympic just said, "Hmm, no." She even sent one of them packing.

i cannot believe they’re giving us a free 5*

[luzho]

obligatory reading for my dear mutuals and archive for my 'favorites' tag (#thank u op):

okay so im looking at El Croquis 52, the one on EARLY Zaha Hadid and... wow. i already know and love so much of those early and full of rhythm perspectives, of course; but it's been a while and it's like i'm discovering the most exciting spaces ever all over again!!! LOOK AT THEM C'MOOOON:

these are like 4 FUCKING PERSPECTIVES IN A SINGLE IMAGE!!!! LOOK:

from the same 'Grand Buildings' contest..... FUCK. THESE ARE FUCKING BEAUTIFUL. I NEED TO DRAW AGAAAAAIN

(KURFURSTENDAMM) look at this one okay, project vs reality okay? already we see all we need about the context while shining a light on the proposed building, but look at THIS

get ROTATED!!!

(heheh the tomigaya project is sooo beetlejuice. hehe anyway)

look at this perspective from the Vitra firehouse (a FUCKING classic)...... SWOOSH BABYYY!!!!!!!! i adore how selective these are... and how we are basically seeing curves and the thinnest of surfaces!! GO GOOGLE "VITRA FIREHOUSE" AND YOU'LL GET IT

(the tokyo forum) DECONSTRUCTING the project on the same image!! HELL YEAH

(starting from this one from the carnuntum museum project, it's actually from El Croquis 73) LOOK at this LANDSCAPE STUDY!!!!! FUCKING BONKERS.

this one isnt even a painting... ITS A FUCKING MODEL. CARDIFF OPERA BABYYYYY

a section of the proposed auditorium..... i adore those lights...... these funky perspectives are something else.

(now El Croquis 103) again, coexistence of multiple perspectives!! and look at this play of warm vs cold!!!!!! LOOK AT THIS RHYTHM PERMEATING THROUGH THE WHOLE THING

i think i will end this with the Landesgartenschau, one of my favorites too<3 look at the wonderful perspectives and then the real thing...... both amazing. i'd love to visit it one day :')

WAIT NO THIS IS MAXXI MUSEUM!!!!! ALSO AN ICON, A CLASSIC AND A FAVORITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

anyway thats it forreal. damn!!! look at this imagination, man! i'm taking this as a wake-up call to just... go for it and go 'ART' once in a while! i do think responsibility with humanity should go first in architecture (urgently important in the times we live in...) but hey, i also think we should live surrounded by art and excitement and fun:)))) gah!!! now i wanna draw something this exciting!!!!

[dryersheetbear]

1, 67, and 19! :)

1. 1937 state park - car seat headrest

"what am I leaving behind me? / just a memory / another body / it ain't no pair of air jordans"

67. tears over bears - modern baseball

"he needed more than me / I'm friendly, and thoughtful, and quite awfully pretty / but he needed more than me"

19. 104 degrees - slaughter beach, dog

"she asked me what I wanted / as if one ever really knew / and i said 'dull domestication, free from pressure to pursue / another love, another touch, another tired conversation'"

STOP DOING THIS IN INJURY FICS!!

Bleeding:

Blood is warm. if blood is cold, you’re really fucking feverish or the person is dead. it’s only sticky after it coagulates.

It smells! like iron, obv, but very metallic. heavy blood loss has a really potent smell, someone will notice.

Unless in a state of shock or fight-flight mode, a character will know they’re bleeding. stop with the ‘i didn’t even feel it’ yeah you did. drowsiness, confusion, pale complexion, nausea, clumsiness, and memory loss are symptoms to include.

blood flow ebbs. sometimes it’s really gushin’, other times it’s a trickle. could be the same wound at different points.

it’s slow. use this to your advantage! more sad writer times hehehe.

Stab wounds:

I have been mildly impaled with rebar on an occasion, so let me explain from experience. being stabbed is bizarre af. your body is soft. you can squish it, feel it jiggle when you move. whatever just stabbed you? not jiggly. it feels stiff and numb after the pain fades. often, stab wounds lead to nerve damage. hands, arms, feet, neck, all have more motor nerve clusters than the torso. fingers may go numb or useless if a tendon is nicked.

also, bleeding takes FOREVER to stop, as mentioned above.

if the wound has an exit wound, like a bullet clean through or a spear through the whole limb, DONT REMOVE THE OBJECT. character will die. leave it, bandage around it. could be a good opportunity for some touchy touchy :)

whump writers - good opportunity for caretaker angst and fluff w/ trying to manhandle whumpee into a good position to access both sites

Concussion:

despite the amnesia and confusion, people ain’t that articulate. even if they’re mumbling about how much they love (person) - if that’s ur trope - or a secret, it’s gonna make no sense. garbled nonsense, no full sentences, just a coupla words here and there.

if the concussion is mild, they’re gonna feel fine. until….bam! out like a light. kinda funny to witness, but also a good time for some caretaking fluff.

Fever:

you die at 110F. no 'oh no his fever is 120F!! ahhh!“ no his fever is 0F because he’s fucking dead. you lose consciousness around 103, sometimes less if it’s a child. brain damage occurs at over 104.

ACTUAL SYMPTOMS:

sluggishness

seizures (severe)

inability to speak clearly

feeling chilly/shivering

nausea

pain

delirium

symptoms increase as fever rises. slow build that secret sickness! feverish people can be irritable, maybe a bit of sass followed by some hurt/comfort. never hurt anybody.

ALSO about fevers - they absolutely can cause hallucinations. Sometimes these alter memory and future memory processing. they're scary shit guys.

fevers are a big deal! bad shit can happen! milk that till its dry (chill out) and get some good hurt/comfort whumpee shit.

keep writing u sadistic nerds xox love you

ALSO I FORGOT LEMME ADD ON:

YOU DIE AT 85F

sorry I forgot. at that point for a sustained period of time you're too cold to survive.

pt 2

also please stop traumadumping in the notes/tags, that's not the point of this post. it's really upsetting to see on my feed, so i'm muting the notifs for this post. if you have a question about this post, dm me, but i don't want a constant influx of traumatic stories. xox

Chapter 103: Vamola 3

Note: This chapter contains material that may cause discomfort in some readers. Please be careful if you choose to read this chapter!

This was their lowest point. Vamola, Banga, Tome and Aja were all ready to die then and there. However, Banga is holding on to one last hope, one miniscule chance that things can still work out for the Sumerian people, and that hope is possible because she has Vamola. I love the way she bounces back from the despair in this moment. Even in the face of death, Banga doesn't give up that easily.

I love these old ladies. Even when they're dying they still got the energy to banter.
