#Bell Robby au

[its-the-univer-blog]

It's great to have another Gravity Falls fan! Who are your favourite characters? Who are your least favourite characters? And headcannons! Are there any you're really enjoying right now?

It's probably too soon to ask about favourite AUs, but if you have found one you like, what is it?

Favorite characters are Probably Soos, Bill, and Dipper.

I don’t like Robbie. :(

Trans dipper is a very good headcanon

They’re probably all autistic too (this is a good thing)

Tad Strange probably has darker secrets than everything involving bill combined

Pacifica’s parents ACTUALLY went broke because Preston kept buying more bells because Pacifica wouldn’t listen (because he’s a dumbass)

Mabel is so closeted as gay she doesn’t even know

Bill hates cheese because of doritos

And Gideon swears the most unholy words half the time he’s offscreen

[ambafaerie]

The B plot of the Boyz Crazy except Relativity Falls AU so Stan is in Dipper’s role while Carla and Thistle are the Wendy and Robbie except they are all the same age.

So Stan has a crush on Carla but he didn’t have the courage to confess so she goes on and dates Thistle but later on Stan finds one of Thistle’s hippie CDs and comes to the conclusion he is brainwashing Carla with his hippie music and that’s why she is wearing bell bottoms now.

He and Grunkle Dipper (fudge the timeline) rush to inform her about this and find her and Thistle in his parent’s van on a cliff. Carla hears them out and Thistle denies it but she still breaks up with him because it was starting to dawn on her this was a summer fling and he might actually have been using a magical device to woo her.

Stan tries to shoot his shot by asking her out with his Grunkle’s encouragement (Dipper should not be consulted for love advice - that’s Mabel’s job) but Carla rejects him and so Stan pushes the van off the cliff and Thistle now has to dejectedly walk home on foot.

Stan sends Carla flowers every day which she returns. He gets the memo and stops. Things eventually cool off a supernatural adventure happens and they reconcile. If their relationship grows into something more depends on how the rest of their summer goes. Ford and Fiddleford tease Stan about it when they hear Dipper’s recollection of it while they were helping him with one of his experiments.

opera house au

they do beauty and the beast at one point and groose gets to be gaston (because it's way too fitting) twilight is the beast. but i can't figure out the right belle

sly volunteers to be lumiere just so he has an excuse to be extra mushy with sun since she gets to be the feather duster

Belle is played by the House's own diva: Artemis

Ironically, there was some concern about having Twilight play a starring role, since he really isn't into the spotlight, but since he already has a great set of skills for playing beastly characters, it was ultimately decided that he'd play Beast, and when the beast transforms into a prince, legend orchestrated a quick change where Warriors took Twilight's place on stage, so they shared the role.

Twilight 100% jump-scared half the cast while in full makeup and costume, especially his nephew and boss.

And yes, Sky and Sun had a lot of fun being the barely rated PG13 duster/lamp couple.

Groose had a lot of fun with Gaston, and Artemis had a lot of fun WITH him, because while her character is supposedly disgusted by the guy, the actress really enjoyed withing with Groose, and genuinely thinks he's really fun.

Ravio guest starred as well, playing Gaston's little lackey, and Legend 100% was laughing his ass off on the sidelines while Ravio unleashed his fawning, over the top act on someone else for once (Groose loved the attention though, so it was a win-win)

And the rest of the cast?

Styla claimed the role of the wardrobe the moment she knew the thing was happening and no one stopped her. She did fantastic.

Wild pulled one of their tech support guys in to play Belle's father, and while Robbie took some convincing, Wild said the man was just too perfect for the role. Honestly, he was right.

And because I know the Disney version, and because I think it's funny, only one of Gaston's admiring bar girls was actually a woman. Wild, Fable and Legend absolutely loved their roles though!

꒦‧₊ ꒷ Sleepovers w/ Team Stan [Headcanons] ✧.*

✧.* tags: comedy, college au

✧.* Charactions: stan marsh, kenny mccormick, kyle broflovski, butters stotch

a/n: I haven't had a sleepover in years and this has made me want to have one with my friends so badly.

masterlist

Monthly sleepovers are a friend group requirement

Cartman is invited on a month by month basis depending on how much of a bitch he’d been in the past month

It’s a great way to keep him in line

“Why do the gays get a pride month and there’s nothing left for us straights?”

“That’s strike 3.”

“WHAT! I didn’t even do anything this month! Who the fuck died and made you king of the sleepover?!”

“Uh- I don’t know. The sleepover behavior etiquette contract that you signed with blood.”

“God fucking DAMMIT.”

You all go to Stan’s usually since it’s outside of town so you can be loud if you want

And get blasted but thats a tale for another time

After the sun sets, the real party begins

Aka eating pizza and talking shit 

“Clyde doesn’t know how to do laundry”

“You’re kidding.”

“I’m literally not. I was at Tweek Bro’s and he spilled some of his drink on his shirt and he goes ‘Now I’ve got to throw this away.’ and I almost choked on my drink, I swear to god. I told him he just needed to wash it and he deadass goes ‘How do you do that?’”

Butters gets so much tea just from overhearing it or people complaining to him 

He LOOKS like a nice guy who empathetically listens

But Professor Chaos on the other hand is remembering every juicy detail about what Bebe sai to Nichole at the mall last week 

Just saying- when the gossip girl south park account comes out, you know who’d behind that shit

Just Dance competitions FOR SURE

Butter is a kpop stan i can feel it

Yall do dynamite and he’s DEMOLISHING 

I said before than stan is the type to only move his arm

But that’s totally kyle

Kenny and Stan go ALL OUT 

That guitar hero gave him mad rhythm

But they get so into the full body dancing that the remote doesn’t pick up the right movements and they end up with like 30 points 

They always TRY the tetris one 

But their ambition outplays their actual ability and it ends with them falling into a pile on the floor

I feel like New Girl would be a group favorite binging show 

“Stan you’re so nick miller coded”

“If I’m nick miller, kyle is the most schmidt to ever exist” 

“Schmidt is fucking hilarious so that’s a compliment. Nick is just an alcoholic.” 

“Okay man fuck off you’re just mad that you can’t be winston.”

“Yeah that’s because I’m winston and Butters is Jess.”

“Yn you’re fucking Robbie.”

“Kenny say sike right now before I throw your soda out the window.”

You all DEFINITELY try to play true american 

And it goes TERRIBLY

Why would you play a game where you have to jump from surface to surface with someone prone to dying 

After the 3rd time Kenny falls off a chair you guys stick to uno or some shit

Midnight taco bell adventures 

they know your fucking order and get annoyed whenver you pull through the drive through

Like god these dumb fuckers again

But you give them a nice tip

And feast on the taco bell in the parking lot while laughing at whoever did the dumbest thing during the night

Wonderful vibes, truly immaculate

Here me out: A Kiaz Last Of Us AU with Miguel as Robby's protector complete with a five-act story-arc and all the bells and whistles. Enemies to lovers with exquisite amounts of pining. Heck yes! 🔥

WAKE UP CALL

An OC oneshot, featuring The Raceway AU

( Au by @thescarletnargacuga )

Let's wake up our favorite snake, shall we?

WARNING: Mentioned death, Character death (abstraction), and panic attacks.

------------------------------#------------------------------

"You are not my friend, and never will be. Leave, now." The voice echoed inside her head, similar sentences swarmed her mind, the blaring of engines making it worse as it went on.

She wanted it to stop, she needed it to.

Tick...

Tock...

Tick...

Tock...

"AH-!" She yelped as she jumped out of bed, hitting her head on the bedframe. She groaned, sitting up slowly as she rubbed the top of her head. A buzzing, irritating ring screamed at her from the nightstand, she clicked off the alarm clock, which had a bite taken out of it due to a certain soapy companion.

"How did I sleep in...?" She said to herself as she stood up and stretched.

She walked towards the door, the claws on her feet tapping along the floor boards, her tail quietly rattling as she moved. Each little section of her body made some type of noise, it wasn't anything annoying, in fact, it reminded her of an actual.. real human body... Something to remind her that she was still human.

She hesitated to grip the door handle, but broke through the fear when she heard a familiar voice from outside the room. A small, sleek, black millipede crawled in her room from under the door, she smiled as she picked up the tiny bug, finally finding the courage to step out of her room.

She looked around, walking down the hallway and stopping at a specific door, knocking on it.

"Hey... Queenie? I know that I... Messed up pretty bad yesterday.. I-" She looked up at the door's icon, a big, red X painted over the picture of what used to be, Queenie.

She stepped back, her tail curling around her body, she didn't think this would happen. She knew it'd happen eventually... But... She didn't get a chance to say goodbye...

"Hello, Motsi!"

"AH-! JEEZ-" She whipped her head around to face the figure, almost overshooting the action as her head clicked into place.

He greeted her with a smile, or, at least she thinks he was.

"Good morning, Kinger..." She sighed and returned the smile.

"Is this yours?" She handed him the millipede from earlier.

"How have you been?" She asked.

"Oh! Yes, thank goodness you found Robby." He gladly took the thousand-legged bug from Motsi's hand.

"AH!"

"ACK-!" She screamed back at Kinger.

"Stop- doing that!" She grumbled.

Kinger was already too distracted by the bug to pay attention.

She shook her head, her expression returning to a smile. She looked down the hall, new doors... New faces... Just how long was she out...? Her face turned into one of distress. She entered the lobby, looking around, no one had noticed her... That was good, at least.

She moved through the room, entering the cafeteria. She dinged the bell for a bubble chef to greet her.

"Just a regular cup of coffee, please."

"Bean juice it is!" The sharp-toothed bubble grinned, coughing up a cup of coffee for Motsi.

She'd forgotten how weird the bubble's inner working was... She took the mug, sitting down at a nearby table. She held the mug with two hands, staring down at her reflection in the dark brown drink.

"Motsi?" A male voice came from beside her.

"God, I thought you were dead!" He chuckled as he sat down beside her.

"Good to see you too, Jax." She looked up at the purple rabbit, bearing a bright yellow smile as always. He leaned down over the table, tilting his head to look at her better. Motsi took a sip of coffee, looking back at him.

"What's with the stare?" She asked him.

"Nothing, just thinkin of new ways to get back at you for disappearing for who knows how long!" He laughed.

"How... How long was I asleep for...?"

"How should I know?" He chuckled, standing up and stepping toward the garage.

"Now come on, I wanna see if you're still as good as you were on the track!" He gestured for her to follow.

She did, and looked around for a moment.

"Where's my bike?" She kept looking around for it.

"Oh! That old thing, yeah I stashed it away while you were gone, it should be right.... Ah ha!" Jax pulled out an orange and white dirt bike, rolling it towards Motsi.

"Still has the muck and grime from your last race! How authentic." He teased.

Motsi chuckled, "Yeah... I'd forgotten to clean it..."

"Vial Swamps, was it?"

"Yup! Speaking of swamps... I wonder how Gummigoo would do in that track..." He looked to the side, pondering something.

"Who..?"

"You haven't seen em?"

"No...?"

"Huh." He shoved the bike towards Motsi. "Say hi to him for me, ya can't miss him."

She caught the bike, and getting pushed back a bit, giving Jax a thumbs up. "Will do."

She rolled her bike up to the default track, looking up at the artificial sky.

-----#------

"Good morning, my ravenous racers! I-" Caine paused, looking down at the red and white snake which looked back up at him, confused as to why he stopped.

He suddenly spoke up, pulling Motsi up to the front of the starting line in front of the line of racers. She squeaked.

"I would like to introduce a marvelous player to our new racers, say hello, to Motsi!"

The unidentified players stared at Motsi, most of them waving hello. She waved back.

Caine quickly placed Motsi into the line of racers, setting her in-between a red and blue jester, and a being of mitch-matched parts, both of the figures taking glances at the Motsi... She tried to keep her eyes on the track as Caine announced the new track and information needed, but she felt so... Out of place.

"Oh boy..." She whispered to herself.

The jester could sense her unease.. and spoke up.

"Hey... Are you okay?"

Motsi didn't respond, she gripped the handles of her bike.

"Motsi, was it?" The mixed figure said on the other side.

Motsi's eyes stayed fixated on the track.

The two strangers looked back at each other, talking with each other without words.

Red...

"Let's hope she does well..." One of the strangers said. Motsi couldn't tell who it came from.

Yellow...

She stared down the track. So many things have changed all at once.

She was told to rest, and get her mind off the problems she had faced before waking up.

GREEN...!

She immediately shot away from the crowd, speeding through the track. After a moment, she could see the other racers catching up to her.

"LOOK AT YOU GO! Still have the fuel after all this time?" Jax laughed as he made his way up to her.

He was the only one she could truly remember, and she responded, sounding much calmer than before.

"Uh- Yeah, I think so!" She replied nervously.

"You think, or know so?" He teased, now driving beside her.

"Absolutely no idea!"

Jax laughed, "Let's hope you don't fall into the cellar before you get to the finish line!" He teased as he drove past her.

Cellar...?

She gripped the handles harder, getting a gruesome reminder of how long she was away for. She started slowing down.

A voice came in on her radio.

"Motsi, my dear! Don't stop now, you just got back!"

"I-I... I can't.." She stuttered.

"Motsi! Are you-" Caine's voice glitched out, a different voice taking over.

"You're in my way... And you'll end up just like the others... Gone. And I'll make sure of it." The radio disconnected.

"Wh... What..?"

Her breathing quickened.

Everything was going too fast for her, but she couldn't see it. She tried to focus on the race.

Her hands gripped the handles as if her life depended on it.

Her mind was swarming with images of the cellar and what was inside, she had to stop. She needed to.

BZZZT-!

A blue flash of electricity jumped in front of her sight.

"AH!" She screamed as she swerved off the track, she tumbled over her own vehicle as it crashed into a large rock. She rolled out of the way just before it crashed.

She stood on her knees, her breathing being heavy.

A million thoughts were blaring in her head.

Stop...

Stop...

STOP!

she slammed her fists on the ground.

The floor beneath her shattered as she fell through.

A bright, neon eye, with swirling colors looked down at her from below.

-----#-----

"Motsi! I saw you crash, and-" The red haired racer slid to a stop, looking out of her vehicle with fear.

A beast, over ten times her size, a glitching mass of pitch black ink swarmed it's body.

Over a thousand eyes opened up, each eye being different from another, yet all of them having one similarity, they were all glaring down at the doll.

REQUESTS ARE NOW OPEN!

Attention, shippers!

I am opening requests for NEW SHIPS!

Is there a ship you'd like to request? This is your chance.

I will be opening requests only for NEW SHIPS, meaning that none of my usual ships will be available (sorry to all the DarcyxBrock and SansaxArthur lovers out there… hahahaha) But if you want to see me writing about Darcy and Sam Wilson, or Susan Pevensie and Prince Caspian this is the time to ask.

The ship doesn’t need to be crack, it can be canon (Like Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy), but it can also be a crackship AS LONG AS IS IT NOT ON MY SHIP LIST. (You can check the complete ship list here).

Also, it can be animated characters, like Belle from “Beauty and the Beast” or Naruto from “Naruto”. However, I don’t like mixing medias. So if it’s a live action character, don’t ask me to ship them with an anime character (so no Sasuke x Darcy, sorry about that) and the same goes for Disney princesses and anime characters, since those are different types of animation.

Please, read the rules carefully before submitting a request.

Requests have to be submitted as an “Ask”, just so it’s easier for me to keep track of them.

The dynamic doesn’t have to be romantic. It can be platonic, but let me know if that’s what you want.

It can be a crossover, it can be an AU.

Information you must provide for your submission:

The characters (Name and movie/TV show (in case of crossover))

If it is a crossover, let me know in which universe they are.

What are they doing? Cuddling on the couch, cooking together, buying new pillows… If you don’t have a specific scenario in mind, it’s fine as well.

Prompts are optional. If you have a dialogue or scene prompt you want to add, it’s up to you. If there’s a song, a picture, or a gif you relate to this and you want to share, please do.

I won’t write:

snippets with real people (Tom Hiddleston, Margot Robbie and so on)

about movies/shows that I’ve never watched (Vikings, Avatar, BBC Merlin and so on)

Characters I strongly dislike. (Joker, Kylo Ren, Diego Hargreeves… )

No characters from “Harry Potter” or “Umbrella Academy”

Anything but pure fluff.

I reserve myself the right to decline prompts based on these. If you have any doubt about any of the rules, you can always DM me ^^

Posts will start on Saturday 23.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Is William actually lore posting??? Is it about their AU?? No, it isn't BUT I AM LORE POSTING-

Ramblings of an insane person below 👇

Axel: Axel was originally supposed to be an offhand side character who appeared in an episode about astrology, though due to his personality who for some reason grew a niche amount of fans, he was often seen being clumsy, causing mischief and examining anything astrology related. Though, it is speculated he helped in the shows cancellation due to his outfit designs and implications of a relationship with the local writer and Liberian of the show, Elliot. He was said to have been a moth from a distant planet, this was presumed to either be Pluto, Neptune or the moon.

__________________

Elliot: Elliot first appeared in an episode teaching younger audiences how to read, count and different languages. He was said to be stern, mature, calm and easily annoyed by others. He was said to have a love for baking, writing and reading. His origins are unknown and whatever audio found of him is distorted. We could make out a French accent though, it was also implied that he had a relationship with Axel.

_____________________

Galene: Galene was a hair stylist and fashion designer, the spider puppet only appeared in two episodes but still gained a decent amount of fans, there isn't much we've uncovered about her due to her audio clips all being distorted and destroyed

________________

Belle: Belle was the town farmer and supplied most if the fruit and produce to Howdy. She was also Eddies older sister, it was heavily implied that she had only moved here due to some issues wherever she used to live. She was one of the more cheery characters. She appeared in around 10 episodes

___________________

Kylie: Kylie was a curious character. She was Eddies chaotic younger sister. She was consistently cancelled and then re aired due to parents seeing her as a bad influence for their young daughters. Despite the crews desperate attempt to make Jer more friendly she still remained just as a troublemaker as ever. She was often see in episodes with the character 'Robbie Wright' (@crazycaoscornpop)

______________

Cupid: [REDACTED.]

_______________

Lilly: Cupid's twin, they were often seen as arrogant, egotistical, cocky and narcissistic. Only appearing sweet to another character Vinny. Which was rare. They appeared in 3 episodes before the show was cancelled.

_______________

Vinny: Vinny was the local mad scientist, or at least that's how they tried to portray him. The character was said to be a last minute decision and was made with cheap materials due to the lack of budget they were given, resulting in tears in the felt. Which they then turned into something they could make lessons about. He often appeared in episodes talking about the safety of what to do when making arts and crafts. Unfortunately, due to him being a last minute decision, this character wasn't able to have a voice actor and only communicated through writing on a note pad he carried. This character is now assumed to be nonverbal due to this and it is very heavily implied this is true.

Echoes of the Past, Legend of Zelda BotW-TotK Au fan-fiction. Contains some spoilers.

Following in an Au fan-fiction of the series Legend of Zelda, Breath of the Wild & Tears of the Kingdom. with the Fan-fiction based around my personal play-through of the series, and how I’ve pieced together the series from the few games I’ve played. ^-^ Also events of this Fan fiction takes place after the main story of Totk.

Part One, Ocarina.

A gentle melody of an Ocarina whispers against the Lookout Landing, catching the attention of young Josha. A young student under Purah, who was busy in her lab in Hateno Village working on a new invention. With the help of the Zonai Survey team, she was able to have a team search the surrounding area for the source of the melody. With the gentle touch of the setting sun on her bright blonde hair as she stepped outside, noticing the young sheikah worry. With only a few months since the defeat of the ancient Ganondorf, Zelda acted like her normal self before the upheaval. With the secret stone from her time in the ancient Hyrule still worn around her neck. "Josha, what seems to be the matter?"

"Princess!" Josha turned to face Princess Zelda as she walked up towards her, but another melody played slowly whispered throughout the Lookout. Catching Zelda's attention right away, as she heard the melody before. "Princess?" She asked in concern as Zelda's gaze seemed to freeze momentarily.

"Send word for Purah to come, please?" Zelda waved towards an overhead Rito as they flew past.

"Right away, Princess!" He hollered at her, before turning towards Necluda in a rush. Wind rustled through his feathers as he flapped his wings, vanishing behind the twin peaks. Zelda turned her attention to Josha.

"Until Purah gets here, let's keep trying to pinpoint the source of the sound." Zelda quickly turned to rush back inside, grasping hold of her Purah pad. "Without a doubt, Link will be here  soon once he hears..." She smiled as she rushed back out to Josha to join the search team.

Chimes of a bell filled Hateno village with joy as children empty the school house. Professor Link glanced out the windows of the school hall. Feeling a familiar sensation in his gut, one that he thought was close to being done. With the students off to their homes, Link began to walk up to Purah's lab. As of late, he began to enjoy helping with Purah and Robbie research. With them working on constructing a scuba gear device for non-Zora to travel underwater. Since gaining his memories of Mipha, and Sidon's marriage to Yona. A zora from outside the domain, Link wanted to one day visit one of these domains. With his mind imagining the joy on Zelda's face upon getting to explore brought joy to his face.

Upon readying himself to begin the walk up the hill to the lab, Link noticed a Rito rushing quickly from the distance. Uncommon for Rito to travel such a distance, especially one that he recognized from the Lookout. Link began to pick up his pace, concern started to peck at him. Hopefully Zelda was alright, or so he thought.

Upon reaching the lab, Link could hear a commotion coming from inside. "Are you sure you put it over here, Purah?"

"Of course I'm sure!" Link opened the door for Purah to fling a few items his way. Luckily for his reflexes, Link dodged as she threw  them until she finally stopped. Standing up with a piece of rebuilt Zonai tech, using items from Mineru's Construct. "Ah there it is!"

"Well hand it here! We can't get ready for the test run if we don't get it running first!" Robbie hollered at her, as his backpack had mechanical legs. Supporting him due to his age, making it easier for him to travel. With the upheaval giving Robbie more items to use towards upgrading his gear. "Oh, hello there Link! You are just in time, my boy!"

Purah scrambled around, pulling her goggles from her face. "Linky! Did you come to check out the progress so far?" She smiled as she placed the zonai tech inside a giant Whale device. With the tech set, Robbie began to reach for the power supply, but as he was about to flip it over the doors opened. Exhausted from his flight, the Rito caught his breath. "Oh? Is something the matter?"

"P-Princess Zelda has summoned your aid, mistress Purah." He crouched, stretching his wings before standing up to look her in the face. Purah sighed lightly, but turned her attention to the Rito.

"My aid? Right when I was about to use my new device too.." She glanced back at the device and then to Link. "I'll head that way shortly, but you'd best head that way before I get there." She smiled. "To ease any of these worries I know you must be having."

Robbie  chuckled, Link's ears began to turn a slight shade of red. Either from Embarrassment or from his feelings in regards to Princess Zelda. "Don't worry, my boy. We'll be right behind you once we load this up!"

"Load it up?" Purah turned to look at Robbie as he chuckled.

"We can use it at the moat surrounding Hyrule Castle for the testing area for the gear, plus  we don't have to worry about it sinking or drifting out by the sea current." Robbie began loading up his tools before moving out towards his air balloon.

"Who knows, it might come in handy with what Zelda is needing." Purah chuckled lightly as she glanced over. With Link long gone from the lab, with only the Rito standing by the door. Preparing himself for the flight back, before setting off Purah gave him a letter. "Here, give this to Princess Zelda. As well inform her that I'll begin setting out once we are all loaded up here."

"Yes, Ma'am." Upon placing the letter in his back pouch, he was off back towards the Lookout. Glancing from below in the village, Link stood with his  trusted horse by his side. His quiver filled with a fresh supply of carved arrows, he started his trip to Hyrule field. After the upheaval, Link built defenses around Hateno to keep the monsters from pushing into the village. With the fort coming into view, Link could hear the neighing of horses that began to live freely in the plains passing the fort. With the stable opening the Dueling Stable Ranch, with horses that the stable sell to travelers unable to tame their own. Link remembered much of his time since the final battle, tending to the horses that now roam the ranch. With him helping tame many of the horses that live within the ranch. With the sight of the newly Twin bridges coming into view, Link quickly reached to give his horse a carrot. Allowing her to pick up her speed as her hooves clanked against the metal boards of the bridge. After  the final battle, Link began to notice the decrease in monsters and the beasts that used to torment travelers.

With the sages using their secret  stones along with Zelda to help tend to the land of Hyrule, Link found himself taking it easy for the last few months. With him spending his days living not as the noble swordsman, but Professor Link.

As his horse was about to reach Hyrule field, a light howl caught his attention. Making Link turn his gaze towards the source. A wolf, with a fog of shadow shielding it, sat staring at Link. Glancing at  him and then towards Faron, but only for a moment until it vanished with another howl. Curious, Link returned his attention to Zelda, but he couldn't shake the feeling that something was familiar about that wolf. Only he was unable to fully recall how.

With the Lookout coming into view, Link's mind quickly jumped into action. Upon arriving at the mini stable, Link leaves his horse to rush towards the Lookout building. Zelda stood puzzled as she stared at the floor, with her chin in hand. "We searched, but we can't seem to locate the sources..."

Upon sensing his presence, Zelda smiled before turning to greet him. "Link, you made it! I somehow had a feeling you would show up!" She paused as she looked towards Hyrule Castle, "Recently Josha, and myself have begun to notice the sound of  an Ocarina. Although we are having difficulties  locating the source." She turns to Link, "So I've sent word to Purah for her assistance."

Link smiles as he explains to her the Scubagear, Purah and Robbie's recent experiment. Her face began to shine bright with excitement as he spoke to her, explaining the details that were shared with him.

"Oh how I look forward to seeing this device! I'm sure Mineru would be pleased to know her construct is being reused to help in Hyrule's restoration." As Zelda and Link were smiling at each other, Josha and a few members of the Zonai survey unit rushed towards her. She looked at them as Josha jogged over towards her.

"Princess, we were finally able to find where the sound might be coming from!" With her attention, Zelda followed behind her as they rushed to Hyrule Castle. Link followed  behind them as they rushed towards the location the team found. Upon arriving at the edge of the Castle gate bridge, Josha pointed in the direction of the water. "We looked all around the area, but thanks to one of the Zora we were able to locate the sound coming from there."

"Do we know what appears to be making this noise?" Zelda asked the Zora.

"It appears to be trapped under a grate, Princess." Swimming closer towards her, the Zora continued. "I was able to find it coming in the depths of the moat, but I'm unable to reach it. It's definitely an Ocarina by the looks of it."

"Strange, I didn't think instruments were able to play underwater." Josha looked at Zelda as her face started to sparkle, before looking back at Link.

"Oh this is indeed wonderful! It would appear that the new device, Purah and Robbie design will  indeed come to much use!" Returning her gaze to the Zora, "Until Purah arrives, would you please keep watch over the Ocarina?"

"Yes, Princess!" Responding with a quickness, the Zora swam under the water surface. Zelda joined Link back towards the Lookout, as the same Rito arrived. With the letter from Purah in his hand as he handed it towards Zelda, but as Zelda took the letter. Robbie's balloon soon came into view of the Lookout. While Purah appeared using her Purah pad to transport, a bundle of books was stuffed under her arms. Retrieving the letter from Zelda, as she noticed Link close to her.

"It would seem that this isn't needed, since Link must've told you by now." She smiled at the duo before walking to Josha's station. Placing down her books, Purah turned to some Hudson workers as they finished building the expansion of the Lookout. "Prepare to help unload the Scuba Gear from Robbie once he lands, please." With his balloon slowly descending as a large whale device that appeared to be strapped underneath. Robbie steered the balloon to land on top of a perch built for traveling Rito. Allowing the device to hang from the basket, workers rushed over to help unstrap the device. Robbie, using his mechanical legs hopped out of the basket, scaring a construction worker by his new legs. "I do hope you didn't damage it on your way here, Robbie!"

"I wouldn't dare do such a thing to this masterpiece!" Robbie's robotic leg stomped in protest. "Besides, I don't think this device is yet ready to be sync to the Purah pad."

"Did you at least bring the backup power supply?" Purah walked over, glancing at the device. Robbie reached into his satchel to pull out a large Zonai battery. Purah snatched it from his hand before reaching into the device, installing the battery in place. "If my calculations are correct from Linky's power belt data, and a few tweekings on my part. This device shouldn't consume any more than this." With the power supply installed, Purah jumped back before reaching for her Purah Pad. "Good thing I keep a backup boot system on here!" She smiled as she pressed a button.

Zelda could hear the gears turning inside the giant whale device, with a striking resemblance to that of a divine beast. Lights turned on from its eyes as the gentle roar of an engine could be heard humming slightly. However as the roar of the scuba gear began, another wave of gentle music from the Ocarina could be heard once more through the Lookout.  Catching both Sheikahs' attention, Purah looked over at Zelda. Remember her reasoning for traveling the device from the comfort of her Hateno lab. "Josha, did you hear that sound as well?"

"I did, and thanks to a Zora we were able to pinpoint the location of the source. That being Hyrule Castle moat." Josha placed the paperwork on the Scuba gear back down, turning to look at Purah as walked towards her young student. "However, we aren't able to reach it due to it being behind a structure. Even the Zora couldn't reach it, but he was able to identify the source as being an Ocarina."

"An Ocarina?" She glanced towards the gear towards the castle. Still floating high above from the ground, but with a recent decline in monsters. Hudson construction has begun building a bridge towards the castle once more. However with the upheaval, Purah could imagine the original route to such a place must've been destroyed. "Hmm, I'm sure instruments can't be played underwater, but this will be the perfect test run!"

Turning towards Link and Zelda, "Oh yes, this should indeed help us retrieve it. So we can begin investigations further!" Zelda smiled at Link, with an excited twinkle in her eye for adventure. "Let's begin preparation right away, Link isn't this exciting!"

Without another word, Zelda dashed towards the Scubagear. Many of the Hudson workers began to help move the device closer to the moat, as the device didn't have any form of movement on land. Zelda carried a box of tools given to her by Hudson, a welcoming gift upon her first trip to Terry Town. With only grabbing a few tools that could be used it retrieved the device. As she was curious about Purah's newest invention, one that Link kept a secret even from her. Josha walked up behind her, stuck reading the instructions for the scuba gear that was written by Purah. She struggled to make out some of the words within the notes, but she followed along slightly. Helping Zelda pick out the appropriate tools. "It would seem that we are in need of something to at least make an opening, from the looks of it we can install attachments to the device."

Purah was busy leading the Hudson workers in the reinstalling of the device, but Robbie close by walked over towards the two as he began properly explaining the device. While the preparations began, Link began to stroll around the Lookout. Taking in the new improvements made to the once fortress. As it slowly started to turn into a village for the Monster control Unit and the Researchers, houses were slowly being built along the Lookout. With Expanded premiters stretching towards the old Ranch. With children running through the newly built roads of the Lookout. Link couldn't help thinking of his students, as his time without the duty of hero on him, was a nice reminder for his strength. A newly built restaurant sat close to the mini stable, along with an Inn for travelers. Despite the few bumpy roads, and  the final battle with the ancient Ganondorf. Hyrule's slow restoration had started to show  with the construction of Lookout Landing, and with the expansion brought more structure to the fallen kingdom. Rito flew overhead as they landed on houses built on the fallen sky islands that littered the kingdom. "Another order please!" Link heard the drunk hollering of one of the local farmers. Slamming down a jug that had a drizzle of milk dripping on the table.

"Sir, I think you had enough." A young barmaid smiled at him, with her hair parted in braids. "Besides, we need to make sure to have some for the other customers as well!"

"I want another though!" He whined before standing to his feet, placing a few rupees on the table. He left the building, but as he was passing Link. His feet gave out to his drunken state. Before smacking into the dirt, Link caught hold of the man. Relief hit him as he stood on his feet. Grasping hold of himself before letting go of Link's shoulder. "Thank you, brother..."

Link nodded his head as he helped the man to a nearby stool, allowing him to sit down. His drunk haze made his mind spin momentarily. Forcing him to lean against the restaurant wall as he looked up at the sky. As Link touched his shoulder to see if the man was alright, he fell asleep. Sighing, Link helped lean the man into the shade, keeping the sun from his eyes. "Link!"

Turning around, he noticed Zelda. Her face was covered in excitement as she rushed towards him, but he reached her first. Grasping his hand, she turned to lead him towards the castle.

"Come on! Purah says that the gear is ready to go!" As they rushed outside the Lookout through the ruins of the old Castle town. Another howl caught Link's attention, making him pause. Zelda turned to him with a concerned look covering the once excited smile, forcing Link to snap out of his gaze. Reassuring her that all was well, they continued towards the castle moat. Purah stood helping Josha install a device to help dig the Ocarina from under the water. Worried to cause any more of the castle to crumble on top of it before being able to investigate, Purah installed a hookshot device in the fins of the scuba gear. "Purah what are those?"

Noticing Link and Zelda as they approached, Purah lifted up the second set of hooks for them to see. Held with two hands, with a long chain coiled around a base, Purah made it look easy to hold. Handing it off to a Hudson worker, with another rushing to help keep it in place. Purah used  one of her tools to finish the last installment. " These are hooks that Robbie insists I install in these, but given the circumstances. I find that you two might need these if we want to retrieve that Ocarina in one piece." Upon tightening the last  bolt, she stood up before running her finger along her Purah Pad. "Let's see...Ah there it is!"

With a press, the back hatch of the device opened up. Inside sat two chairs and a steering wheel. "Where are the controls for the hookshot?" Zelda quickly sat into the device behind the wheel, her face was covered in excitement. She quickly looked around the dashboard, behind the steering.

"Don't worry, Princess." Robbie walked over, "I've finished the updates to the Purah Pad, so you should be able to use it to sync the controls."

"I thought you said that the device wasn't ready to be sync yet, Robbie?" Purah looked at him, but he smirked at her.

"Come on, we both know that you've already got it in sync with yours." Purah chuckled at him as he continued. "Besides we both know the Princess will be able to use the controls for this device if her Purah pad was synced."

"Yeah, you do have a point there." Turning to Link as he started to get himself set inside the device. Being unable to travel on land, Purah had the device set to release into the water, but only once she made sure the two were seated. As she was unaware of how the ride within would be, with being the first test run of the device. After showing Zelda the controls, Purah pressed a button on her Pad that allowed the hatch to close. "Don't worry now, if all my calculations are correct. Once in the water you two should be able to sink, don't worry I made sure there were no cracks!" Despite being unable to hear outside the gear, Purah's voice echoed out the pad to them from her own. "Alright, begin raising for the dive!"

"Purah are you sure it's safe?" Josha's voice could be heard, in a questioning tone. "Will they be able to breath down  there?"

"Yep, made sure of it when I started building this baby!" Her voice sounded  confident, but Robbie's voice soon hollered out to her.

"But didn't you scrap that design for that one a few years ago?" Purah didn't respond for a moment to him. Zelda looked out the scuba gear window to see Purah looking away from him smiling. Trying to recall her memories, as her first attempts on the scuba gear were a whim in her early Seventies. Back before Link awoke from his long  hundred year slumber.

"Well I'm sure I used the same mechanics around this one!" Her voice didn't match her face as she spoke, but she continued. "Besides, I'm confident that all will work out!" Without any further delay, the scuba gear was sent off into the water. Purah quickly pulled up her Pad. "Testing, Princess Zelda, do you read me?"

Purah froze for a moment as Robbie and Josha quickly rushed to the edge of the moat. Worry covered their faces as they didn't receive a response. As Purah quickly began to pull off her jacket to jump in after them, ready to call the test a  failure. Zelda responded, "I read you Purah! You should see it down here! Link, look, there is the Zora!"

After a sign of relief, Pura pulled her jacket back on. "Well good, I'm glad to see all is going smoothly." Link held the steering wheel as he guided the gear deeper into the water. With the edge of the moat coming into view, the zora swarmed towards them. Zelda scanned around on her Purah pad. Finding the right software, with a press of the button she could hear the voice of the Zora as he spoke towards them. 

“This must be what was looking down at me from the top. Thank goodness, I was worried a monster was littering above.” He motioned his forearm across his forehead. 

Zelda looked at her Purah pad, before lifting to speak. “My apologies, would you be so kind and show us to the Ocarina?”

“Yes, right this way Princess!” Recognizing her voice, as he could only make out the set of eyes looking through the scuba gear device’s teeth. Turning downwards, he guided them. Following closely behind, with the light humming of the battery echoing as the edge of the stone side of the moat started to appear. A small grate started to become clearer, with Link noticing a soft melody coming through the Purah Pad. Zelda used the Purah pad, as Robbie instructed her beforehand, to open the hook shots from their resting position. “Right there, you can see parts of it from here.”

Pulling the gear in place as instructed by the Zora, Link noticed a reflecting light of blue. A gold triforce was imprinted on the mouth piece, but Zelda couldn’t recognize the instrument. Even from her time studying the royal family artifacts, but like the history of Hyrule’s founding. Many pieces of the Royal family were lost, even amongst the family itself. Meeting his gaze, Zelda turned to start using the hook shots to cling onto the grate. “Oh, I do hope this doesn’t cause the rest of the structure to collapse!” Worry covered her face as she pressed the button for the hooks to fire, with a loud noise, they attached. With the hooks looped tightly around the bars, Zelda began to slowly pull the chains back. Her finger slowly glides across the Purah pad, chains clinking back in place. Until they tighten, with the force of the final pull of the chains, breaking the bars of the grate. Despite the tight fit, the Zora  swam into the opening, reaching inwards pulling out the Ocarina. Zelda leaned towards the opening watching as the Zora slowly crawled back out. Holding in his hand the instrument. Relief hit Zelda as she turned to her pad once more, speaking. “Please take it to Purah, we’ll be returning back as well.”

“Yes, Princess!” He nodded his head, before swimming upwards towards the water surface. Leaning back down, Zelda smiled at Link as he began to steer the device upwards.

“Purah, do you read me?” Zelda spoked through her pad, with a stumble she received a response.

“Loud and clear, Princess!” 

“We’ve begun to ascend back to the surface, I’ve asked the Zora to deliver the Ocarina to you.” With the grate vanishing back into the water, Link continued to drive them back towards the surface.

“Don’t worry about that, Princess. I’ve just received it, Josha has already begun looking it over.” Her voice sounded upbeat as she spoke. “I’ve already got a docking system set in, so Linky should be able to just guide the device straight in.”

“Thank you, Purah.” Zelda smiled at Link, with him returning the smile as they continued upwards. With a set of floating balloons bobbing against the top of the water came into view. Guiding the device to line up with the balloons, Link began the final ascent. With the breaking of the water as the top lifted open, Zelda stretched upwards. Excited from her test run of the new device. Purah appeared to walk away, with the Zora standing on the edge of the moat. “Where did Purah go? I was sure she would be here waiting for us?”

“Mistress Purah went ahead with young Josha towards the Lookout, Princess.” Responding to her, reaching his hand outwards for the duo to exit the Scuba gear. “She asked that I tell you upon your arrival.”

“Thank you.” She smiled as she looked at Link. “Let’s go then, I’m most curious about this instrument, Link.”

He felt the same as her, curious, but he also felt something eerie about the instrument. With the gentle whisper of another howl. Link glanced around, while Zelda had begun to walk towards the Lookout. Feeling the same presence as before, but without wanting to cause Zelda’s joy to change. Link brushed it off as he chased after her. Part one End. Part Two

Once upon a time... in Hollywood

Je crois que le dernier film de Tarantino que j'ai regardé est Kill Bill quand j'étais ado et depuis plus rien. J'avais commencé à regarder Once upon a time il y a quelques années mais j'ai du m'endormir (Oupsi 😅) En même temps il dure presque 3 heures...

1er jour de vacances et mon envie est de regarder chaque jour un film que je n'ai jamais vu et c'est tombé sur celui-ci.

Synopsis:

1969. Un acteur et sa doublure cascade tentent de relancer leur carrière dans une Los-Angeles méconnaissable. Et le jeune couple fétiche du cinéma s'installe à côté.

J'aime l'univers des années 60-70, la musique de cette époque ce qui est un plus. Leonardo Dicaprio et Brad Pitt sont excellents dans leur rôle. Si âme sensible je vous le déconseille car la scène de la fin peut heurter, Tarantino quoi 🙄

J'ai su après avoir regardé le film qu'il était en partie inspiré d'une tragédie qui s'est déroulé en 1969, l'assassinat de l'actrice Sharon Tate jouée par Margot Robbie dans le film.

Ce que j'en ai pensé:

Pour les points positifs, je dirai l'époque du film, les deux personnages joués par Leonardo Dicaprio et Brad Pitt avec beaucoup de notes d'humour. Le personnage Rick m'a beaucoup touché, la peur de ne plus être à la hauteur, passé un certain âge, de ne plus être aimé ou accepté des autres finalement. Surtout dans le milieu du cinéma, mais peut être ressenti dans nos propres vies à chacun.

Le fait que Tarantino est voulu remettre en avant l'histoire de l'assassinat de Sharon Tate mais en changeant la fin, j'ai ressenti du regret et chagrin de sa part et la chose qui m'est venue, c'est: est-ce qu'il y a un rapport avec l'affaire Weinstein? Il s'est exprimé en disant qu'il n'aurait pas dû fermer les yeux et ne plus travailler avec lui. Et ce regret je l'ai ressenti dans ce film en voulant changer la fin tragique de cette actrice en agissant comme héros par l'intermédiaire du personnage de Cliff. C'est touchant en tout cas.

J'ai aimé la légèreté du film qui se concentre surtout sur les changements qu'il y a dans ces années là au niveau du cinéma et d'autres faits malgré la lourdeur du fait divers.

Pour les points négatifs, je trouve qu'il y a des scènes trop longues avec de longs monologues, mais c'est ce qui caractérise Tarantino.

Je crois que le principal est dit, c'était une belle découverte en tout cas. Et vous, qu'est-ce que vous en avez pensé?

Je vous laisse avec deux chansons que j'ai aimé dans ce film.

A bientôt 🦋

Harley Quinn vue par le DCEU

Cette analyse est proposée avec le moins de spoil possible.

Figure 1 : Différentes affiches promotionnelles mettant en scène Harley Quinn

Qui est Harley Quinn ? C’est une question complexe, à la réponse tout aussi complexe. Comme tous les personnages DC comics, elle est un mélange de symboles et de grandes lignes avec lesquels les scénaristes jouent au gré de leurs envies, depuis Paul Dini et Bruce Timm, ses créateurs, jusqu’à Tini Howard, scénariste des comics Harley Quinn actuels.

            Née sur le petit écran, dans un épisode de Batman, la série animée en 1992, elle rejoint l’univers des comics en 1993 avec The Batman Adventures, avant d’apparaître sur grand écran sous les traits de Margot Robbie dans le film Suicid Squad de 2016, réalisé par David Ayer. Et c’est à cette dernière occurrence que nous allons nous intéresser ; pour le grand public, la Harley incarnée par Margot Robbie est la première image invoquée par ce nom.

            Margot Robbie jouera à trois reprises ce personnage si particulier, au sein d’un univers se voulant cohérent, le DCEU, mais au sein de trois films totalement différents.

            Trois facettes d’un personnage complexe, finalement reflet idéal de sa contrepartie des comics.

Partie 1 : Un objet sexuel qui sait se battre.

Figure 2 : Affiche promotionnelle pour Suicide Squad (2016)

            Le ton est donné dès les premières minutes du film. Dans une cellule, ressemblant plus à une cage, Harley est dévoilée comme suspendue à des cordes de fortunes, créature étrange et souple, qui vient lécher sensuellement ses barreaux pour provoquer un gardien.

            Personnage étrange, elle est choisie par Amanda Waller pour rejoindre une force spéciale composée de super-vilains avec des capacités spéciales, censée protéger la Terre après la mort de Superman.

            Cette Harley Quinn, comme toutes ses contreparties, n’a pourtant pas de super pouvoir ; il s’agit du Dr. Harleen Quinzel, psychiatre à l’Asile d’Arkham, lieu mythique de la mythologie Batman où sont enfermés tous ses ennemis. Au sein de cet établissement si particulier, elle fera la rencontre du Joker, némésis de Batman, un personnage entièrement défini par sa folie meurtrière ; Harleen tombera amoureuse du Joker, et le rejoindra dans sa folie jusqu’à le libérer et plonger dans une cuve de produit chimique par amour.

            Elle était sa chose, sa reine, qu’il exposait dansant en petite tenue, l’offrant au regard de tous pour mieux jouer avec les esprits de ses opposants, et sa partenaire dans le crime, jusqu’à que Batman ne l’arrête et qu’Harley soit placée dans la prison de Belle-Rêve, où Amanda Waller vient donc la recruter de force pour son projet.

            À plusieurs reprises, le film mettra en avant sa compétence au combat et son intelligence ; elle est présentée comme ayant aidé le Joker à tuer Robin, le protégé de Batman, montrée comme si dangereuse que plusieurs gardes sont nécessaires pour la maîtriser, et lors de toutes les scènes de combat, elle se débrouille parfaitement seule, sans besoin d’aide particulier. Elle parviendra même à tromper la grande ennemie du film, permettant ainsi la victoire finale de son équipe.

            Mais cette image de compétence n’est pas celle qu’on garde en mémoire ; si sur le papier elle est compétente, la réalisation et la direction d’acteur nous dévoilent un clown sexy.

            Le personnage d’Harley Quinn, quelle que soit son adaptation, est défini par une sorte de folie, plus ou moins appuyée. Ici, son caractère se situe quelque part entre l’aguicheur et l’enfantin, mais toujours lié à son amour pour le Joker. Comme dit précédemment, on la voit lécher un barreau de sa cage pour provoquer un garde ; cette Harley sait qu’elle fait de l’effet, et en joue un instant, avant de rire d’une manière presque enfantine, créant un décalage parfois malaisant.

            Ses tenues, et la façon dont elles sont filmées, viennent appuyer cette impression de malaise. Lorsqu’elle est prisonnière, le haut de son uniforme est roulé pour dévoiler son ventre. Mais une scène est notable quant au traitement d’Harley, et de son corps.

            L’équipe réunie par Amanda Waller se retrouve sur un tarmac militaire, où de nombreuses personnes se croisent ; des militaires, des citoyens évacués, et la fameuse « Suicide Squad ». Là, leurs affaires leur sont rendues, pour qu’ils s’équipent. Dans un plan partant des pieds d’Harley pour revenir sur sa tête, on découvre qu’elle s’est changée là, à la vue de tout le monde, sans que ça ne semble la gêner ; elle semble même surprise des regards masculins s’attardant sur elle. La tenue qu’elle choisit pour le combat semble particulièrement peu adaptée ; ses bottines ont des talons aiguilles, ses collants sont des bas résilles, son short tient plus de la culotte, et son soutien gorge rouge permet de rester bien visible sous le T-shirt blanc moulant qu’elle enfile dans le plan évoqué plus tôt. De plus, elle porte un collier ras-le-cou évoquant un collier de chien, rappelant son « appartenance » au Joker. Quant à sa coiffure, désormais ancrée dans l’imaginaire collectif, elle est constituée de deux couettes assez longues, qui apportent un caractère presque enfantin à son visage.

            Si le film s’attardera moins sur son physique par la suite, sa tenue à la fois courte et colorée la fait particulièrement ressortir sur les décors assez ternes et parmi les autres personnages aux tenues plus militaires ; l’œil est naturellement attiré par elle, rendant difficile d’ignorer la sexualisation du personnage, en particulier lorsqu’il est filmé de dos.

            Ainsi, si le scénario tente de nous offrir une Harley forte et compétente, la caméra nous rappelle constamment le côté « sexy » du personnage, créant cette image de « clown sexy » éloignée des véritables compétences du personnage. De plus, malgré toute la force du personnage, elle reste intégralement définie à travers son amour pour le Joker.

            Le personnage semble n’avoir besoin que d’une chose ; une émancipation.

Partie 2 : L’émancipation

Figure 3 : Affiche promotionnelle pour Birds of Prey et la fantabuleuse histoire de Harley Quinn (2020)

Sorti en 2020, le film de Cathy Yan annonce la couleur dès son titre ; Bird of Prey et la fantabuleuse histoire de Harley Quinn. Il est à noter que le titre original utilise le mot « Emancipation », soit « émancipation ». De plus, au sein des comics de DC Comics, les Birds of Prey sont une équipe entièrement féminine.

            Le film s’ouvre sur la voix d’Harley Quinn, qui va servir de voix-off jusqu’à la fin, nous racontant sa vie. Mais cette fois, sa vie ne commence pas au moment où elle a rencontré le Joker ;  Harley parle de sa vie d’avant, pour mieux raconter ensuite sa vie d’après. Car oui, Harley et le Joker ne sont plus ensemble, et Harley va avoir envie de l’annoncer au monde, en jetant le collier représentant leur amour (cette fois une chaîne), et en détruisant l’usine de produit chimique où elle a dû sauter par amour. Cela étant fait, elle s’attirera des ennuis ; n’étant plus la petite amie du criminel le plus dangereux de Gotham, elle est désormais considérée comme une cible facile, et devra réussir à survivre et s’imposer. Autour d’elle graviteront plusieurs personnages féminins ; Renee Montoya, policière qui n’est pas prise au sérieux par ses collègues masculins, Cassandra Cain, jeune pickpocket en quête d’un modèle, Dinah Lance, chanteuse plus ou moins forcée de travailler pour un mafieux, et Huntress, mystérieux personnage en quête d’une vengeance.

            Le film offre donc un point de vue plutôt féministe, mettant en avant des personnages féminins de DC, souvent moins connus du grand public, pour les opposer à des personnages masculins cherchant à les dominer ou ne les prenant pas au sérieux.

            Mais revenons sur Harley.

            Qui est-elle dans ce film ? Comment sa folie est-elle définie ?

            Harley veut faire ce qui lui plaît. On retrouve le côté enfantin du premier film, avec cette envie de faire ce qui lui plaît sans se soucier des conséquences. Cependant, le côté aguicheur disparaît complètement, faisant place à un véritable grain de folie (si dans Suicide Squad il est dit une fois qu’elle entend des voix, Birds of Prey joue bien plus avec cette idée, notamment à travers la narration et le castor empaillé auquel elle parle.) Son intelligence est bien plus mise en avant, et on la voit véritablement analyser certains personnages, rappelant qu’elle était une psychiatre. Mais surtout, Harley n’est plus du tout définie par le Joker ; si d’autres personnages la voient seulement comme l’ex du Joker, elle-même ne semble plus penser à lui, se concentrant sur sa survie et son amusement. Cette Harley semble tournée vers l’avenir.

            Mais qu’en est-il de ses tenues ? Toutes les analyser serait bien trop long, elle se change régulièrement tout au long du film. Si ses tenues sont toujours assez courtes, elles sont moins sexualisées. Les vêtements semblent être choisis parce qu’ils sont colorés et amusants �� voir, plus que pour leur potentiel « sexy ». Elle porte certes des shorts et des crocs tops, mais la caméra ne s’attarde pas sur son corps. De plus, l’ensemble du film est assez coloré, et les autres personnages portent aussi des vêtements de diverses couleurs (comme le méchant qui peut être vu avec une veste rose pâle), ce qui fait que les tenues d’Harley s’insèrent naturellement dans le film. Sa coupe de cheveux reprend l’idée des couettes du premier film, mais elles sont cette fois coupées court, pour un effet plus amusant et pratique.

            Notons cependant un détail ; ses chaussures. Lorsqu’Harley part véritablement au combat elle choisit à nouveau des bottines, mais cette fois avec des talons assez réduits, et surtout, larges. Ce ne sont pas des chaussures parfaitement adaptées au combat, mais elles sont dans le style d’Harley Quinn tout en restant pratique, bien plus que celles du premier film.

            La Harley de ce film est son propre personnage. Toujours aussi compétente au combat, à même de réagir face à des situations graves, mais capable d’erreurs et non toute puissante. C’est toutefois à travers la caméra qu’elle s’émancipe réellement, le personnage montré étant le reflet parfait du personnage écrit. Elle est une femme libre, s’amusant sans réfléchir aux conséquences, mais capable de faire face à ces dernières. Elle est une anti-héroïne qui se détache complètement de l’image de Suicide Squad… pour un temps.

Partie 3 : Retour dans la Suicide Squad.

Figure 4 : Affiche promotionnelle pour The Suicide Squad (2021)   Après diverses péripétie de production, c’est en 2021 que The Suicide Squad sort au cinéma, cette fois réalisé par James Gunn. À la fois suite et reboot, le film reprend les bases posées par le premier film pour créer sa propre histoire.

            Suite à un coup d’état sur l’île fictive de Corto Maltese (inspirée de pays comme Cuba), Amanda Waller envoie son unité spéciale secrète, la « Task Force X » (ou Suicide Squad) détruire un laboratoire géant. Elle la divisera en deux groupes ; le premier, dont fait partie Harley Quinn, se fera massacrer à l’exception de deux personnages, dont Harley. Cette dernière sera faite prisonnière par le nouveau régime, avant de réussir à rejoindre la seconde équipe pour continuer la mission.

            Avant toute chose, intéressons-nous à la continuité d’Harley Quinn ; sans trop en révéler, nous pouvons dire que nous avions une Harley libre à la fin de Bird of Prey, qui se retrouve à nouveau en prison, à même de pouvoir servir au sein de la Task Force X au début de The Suicide Squad. Une explication est lâchée dans une réplique, sur un braquage de banque qui aurait mal tourné. La continuité ne semble pas être de mise, tout ce qui importe est qu’Harley puisse à nouveau être dans le film. Il y a même peu à dire au final, puisqu’elle est plus un personnage secondaire, très présent à l’écran, certes, mais secondaire. Elle semble être là pour lier ce film au premier, et capitaliser sur la popularité du personnage.

            Cependant, le personnage a droit à sa propre sous-intrigue, avant de rejoindre les autres personnages. Séparée du groupe, aux mains du nouveau dictateur local, Harley apprend qu’elle est vue comme une figure révolutionnaire aux yeux des habitants de Corto Maltese. Profondément anti-américain, ces derniers semblent voir dans son comportement légèrement anarchique et complètement libre une révolte envers le gouvernement des États-Unis. L’idée semble plus amuser Harley qu’autre chose.

            Pour ce qui est du personnage en lui-même, son côté enfantin disparaît, au profit d’une sorte de maturité. Elle continue de s’émerveiller devant de petites choses, comme une jolie robe ou des oiseaux, mais montre plus de sérieux dans ses scènes de combat, notamment lors d’une scène d’évasion. La Harley de ce film se laisse séduire par le dictateur, mais n’hésite pas à le tuer de sang-froid lorsqu’elle découvre qu’il sacrifie des enfants ; elle se présente comme ayant appris de ses erreurs, et prête à ne jamais laisser de mauvais hommes la séduire à nouveau. Comme dans les deux films précédents, elle se laisse parfois aller à un côté héroïque, toujours dans le but de rester avec ses amis. Évidemment, le côté « clown » ne disparaît pas complètement, et dès qu’elle rejoint l’équipe, elle devient un mécanisme comique, quoi que toujours compétente et utile à l’action.

            Au niveau de ses tenues et de la façon dont elle est filmée, tout est plus sobre. Ses cheveux, à nouveau longs, sont teints à nouveaux ; mais là où elle abordait du rose et du bleu clair lorsqu’elle était avec le Joker, elle choisit désormais le rouge et le noir, et attache ses cheveux en tresse. Ces couleurs lui restent associés dans tout le film participant à la garder bien visible à l’écran, sans autant détonner que les tenues des films précédents.

            Sa tenue pour partir en mission est composée d’un corset, certes, mais Bird of Prey avait introduit l’idée d’un corset part-balle. Quant au reste de sa tenue, elle semble pratique. Plus tard, elle portera une robe longue, mais ce choix ne se fait pas de son plein gré. Et dès que la situation l’exigera, elle déchirera sa robe pour une plus grande liberté de mouvement, et enfilera des bottes militaires ; le film choisit donc de la montrer dans des tenues pratiques, adaptée aux combats.

            De même, la réalisation ne s’attardera jamais sur son corps, cherchant plutôt à montrer sa folie dans une scène de combat où des fleurs et des petits oiseaux de dessins animés remplacent le sang.

            The Suicide Squad nous offre donc une femme d’action, capable de se sauver elle-même, tout en étant touchée par l’idée que quelqu’un veuille la sauver. Plus concentrée que dans le premier film, elle est cependant dans la continuité de cette évolution vers une émancipation toujours plus forte, malgré un retour par la case prison qui semble forcé.

Conclusion

            Qui est donc Harley Quinn au sein du DCEU ? Une ancienne psychiatre, tombée dans la folie, prise au piège d’une relation toxique et abusive, qui s’émancipera pour devenir elle-même, libérée de tout, de la société et de son ex.

            Les films du DCEU, en particulier cette étrange trilogie qui n’en est pas vraiment une, sont souvent accusés de ne pas être cohérents entre eux, et de mal se suivre. Les nombreux problèmes de production autour de leurs réalisations viennent appuyer cette idée. Cependant, une certaine cohérence se dégage du personnage d’Harley Quinn, et ce, dès le début. Si David Ayer a sexualisé le personnage, soit de son fait, soit par ordre du studio, son film a cependant réussi à poser les bases d’une véritable évolution, prenant des formes et des couleurs très différentes, mais restant étonnamment cohérente. Malgré des critiques différentes pour chacun des films, les trois performances de Margot Robbie seront saluées.

            Mais cette page de l’histoire des films DC s’est tournée, et désormais, se sera à Todd Philips et Lady Gaga de nous proposer un nouveau départ pour le personnage au grand écran, à travers la suite du film hors-continuité Joker.

i had to take a while before even STARTING to type this response because i was jittering too hard in excitement, real footage of me attached vvv

... this is me the next morning realizing nothing i wrote saved correctly. anywho.

first of all, please talk more about your au. i love god aus, i need to know as much lore as you're willing to tell me.

i also understand moving from more popular to problematic/ obscure faves. stan and mabel are and will also be close to my heart, but when i'm really thinking about it? pacifica, gideon, and weirdly the two surviving clones from double dipper are the ones i love the most.

i feel a little dumb overanalyzing it all, but i don't think people nowadays talk about how tragic the characters of pacifica and gideon really are. pacifica was trained on a bell, for gods sake, that's horrifying! she was conditioned to be the perfect obedient yet unsympathic child the northwests could have. gideon was a child star being corrupted by dark magic, which is already horrible without my early grave headcanon. not to mention the possibility that bud was using the memory gun on his own son. (when i get you bud gleeful... better watch out)

i think they'd bond on the idea of the ever-praised (thank you so much, i'm so happy that line landed as well as it did) "outcast yet above it all" because they understand each other in a way no one else in the group could. yeah, pacifica was close with other zodiac members, and yeah, they all had moments they weren't proud of, but none of them understood how good those moments had felt for her. it felt good to command a crowd. to be the center of attention. to ridicule others because you were just.. above them.

but gideon did. and he didn't scold her when she made a mean comment, or call her selfish when she'd split something and give him the smaller portion, because they both knew he could slip up and do the same. no matter how much they both tried to be good people, they were raised to be terrible people and that wasn't something that could just go away.

she had spent the last few years carving a crack in her metaphorical walls for him to slip through, and his death made her want to tear the whole thing down and start anew. but then there was wendy hugging her as the ambulance arrived, and dipper holding her hand at the funeral, and mcgucket checking in on her with whatever he could do to get her spirits up, and it all left her more willing to be vulnerable to the others. they could never fully understand why she did the things she did, not like he had, but they could try and that was enough sometimes.

touching on robbie before i talk about them all as a whole, i think his anger does finally start to simmer instead of constantly boiling over. he'll never not be angry, he'd have to mad-scientist gideon back alive and knock some sense into his parents to stop, but it didn't have to consume him.

that first year after the funeral, his friends didn't know what to do with him. he was an asshole, true and honest, moreso than he was as a kid, and it sucked. he didn't like the fact that he was self-isolating, but the hot rage that filled him everytime he saw something weird or dangerous or really anything related to his hometown was blinding and indiscriminatory on who it landed on.

he thinks that coffee meet with mabel saved him. they talked, and she was amicable in the face of his irritation, but he could feel how she skirted over the same topics he should. no weirdness. no grieving, other than her own. she mentions once, how upsetting it was to be at that funeral, openly weeping, when some people couldn't manage a single tear. but when she starts gripping the paper cup tight enough for it to strain, she takes a breath, looks out the window, and blinks away the tears of frustration.

he asks how she handles it, and she says, "i don't. not really. i just stopped trying to tell other people how they should grieve, even if i think they're being insensitive douchebags," ending it with a strained giggle.

and so he starts letting that anger transform, melting into cool numbness that's easier to work with. when the depression gets bad enough that he starts calling out of work, nate starts bringing over food, and wendy makes her little brothers—although they aren't so little anymore—go over there to clean the dark corner of the world that robbie had settled in after the anger faded. tambry and lee force him to hang out with them again, and eventually he starts liking it.

even after he gets back on his feet, he's still angry. but it doesn't burn as bright, or as hot. it sparks when he talks to his parents, but he lets it wash over him, talks to mabel about it days later and wonder how the annoying twelve-year-old he used to scoff at had become so dear to him. he starts talking to the rest of them more, finds a similar—but not the same, never the same—bond in the northwest girl, and starts living his life again.

i'm really happy that you liked the robbie section in my other response!! it's definitely the one i was proudest of when writing it, so knowing that it's appreciated just makes me so giddy

and yes!! i love the idea that while gideon's death isn't a good thing by any means, it does bring the rest of them together. they're trying to fill the void that the loss left, and they can never get him back but they can find him in each other. evil thoughts about other characters' deaths and the reactions, but stan is the next to go and that actually brings some of them further apart, in my evil heart i mostly mean that about dipper and mabel, and how that divides the group, but all of them are impacted in some way. it doesn't take another death to bring them together again, that's just cruel, but i like the idea of the group losing their favorite conmen impacting them in different ways.

the idea of the zodiac as a family, as a whole, is one of my favorites. like yes, they've gone through unspeakable horrors, most of them aren't codependent but they still need each other, and eventually begin to function as a family unit no matter how much they try to deny it. specifically about the other members of the antagonist trio, they saw gideon as an annoying little brother, and look towards the people they've begun to see as siblings and parents—in the stead of being only children with bad relationships with their parents—for comfort and guidance. it's all very dear to me.

and augh, just really quick before i send this off, deity!robbie being there to get the rest of them... them not being his, but still caring for them and wanting to fight for them to be together, even in the cold expanse of the void. hearing gideon's laughter and incoherent whispers and knowing that this one's his favorite, but it still needs its family... tearing my heart out, clawing my skin off, etc. etc.

this took a minute longer than i wanted it to because tumblr hates me and i'm trying to redownload my skyrim set-up at the same time (i'm a multi-tasking king, i say, floundering at my desk), but it's here! i'm happy with it! i checked all the points on my bullet list that i wanted to! amazing!

teen gideon headcanons because i love him :] i am constantly thinking about him and how he's the only zodiac member (and honestly, only main-ish character because of the book of bill and the website) that doesn't get a sympathetic moment, other than POSSIBLY the finale but that barely counts

i think he deserves to have a SORT OF redemption, at least internally, because he took dipper's advice in weirdmageddon to heart. even if he gets over his crush on mabel (which i think he does. mom said its my canon now) theres still the truth of "people wont wanna be around you if youre a selfish prick"

anyways he makes me emotional so i'm giving him attention

im scared tumblr will kill the quality on my tiny handwriting so transcription under the cut:

after turning like 15, he just starts traveling, gets out of oregon and hits the ground running

uses my headcanon (?) that the amulet takes years from you, and gideon probably won't live past his 20s

he finds this out, has a total mid-life (literally) crisis at 14-15 and decides to do anything "normal" he can do because he doesn't have long to do it

ofc he still has anger issues and obsesses over people and everything else, but he's a lot better at managing it [than] when he was a kid

he doesn't care if he dies with people still hating him, but he wants it to be known that he tried
