HIII‼️‼️‼️

I I would like to hear ur thought process behind Koba and Caesar if u don’t mind, I think it’d be a very interesting dynamic but I wanna hear ur thoughts since ur the one who put the idea out :D

(Unless ofc, if ur tags in that one post were just the entire thought process and I’m just thinking too deep into it lol 😭)

HIII ‼️‼️ thank you so much for asking... I will absolutely love to elaborate

Welcome to: A Hopefully Legible Collection of My Thoughts on Caesar/Koba ™ (actually it's mostly just Koba... i stay biased) im gonna divide it into the different movies begging w Rise

RISE + Book:

okay so Koba isn't in Rise a lot and we don't really get a lot of information HOWEVER in the book "Planet of the Apes: Caesar's Story" by Greg Keyes we get this quote

(the narrator is Maurice btw) in which Koba thinks so fondly of Caesar he becomes Issape Newton

DAWN + book again:

dawn is complicated because at first we see Koba as this super loyal guy who will do anything to protect Caesar and his fellow apes, and then later in the movie he does a full 360

There's a deleted scene that happens after Koba saves Caesar and Blue eyes (I think)

"You saved my life today, Koba"

what a sad miserable guy that man would do anything for Caesar just look at him

after the hug Caesar stands infront of all the other apes while still holding onto koba, and says "Apes together strong" while Koba looks at him like he's the only person in the whole world

that dude is in love ↑

Koba worshipped Caesar like he'd do anything for him, so when Koba starts to believe Caesar cares more about humans than apes that's when he begins to turn "evil" Everything Koba did was to protect Caesar, I'm confident that in Kobas mind killing Caesar is what he had to do to protect him and his family

I don't remember which movie this quote was from but:

"From humans Koba learnt hate"

and from Caesar he learnt love, so when Caesar started "prioritizing humans" he turned back into hatred

↑ again it's Maurice telling this

WAR:

I don't have much more to say cus Kobas dead in this one rip dude but

Fellas is it gay to hallucinate your dear old friend (who you murdered) calmly caressing your face telling you to join him in the afterlife??? just asking

Summary:

uhh yeah this is pretty much everything hope you enjoyed like and subscribe 👍 yeah the movies are tragic and i feel like caesar/koba just makes everything so much more tragic and i love that pain and suffering on planet earth <3

+ an extra little treat

[biteghost]

Maybe I missed it, was it ever explained how the crew knows about earth stuff? Does Keyes and Earth have back and forth cultural communication? Is it only one way? Is it just a cute way to show off the gangs interests without needing to make up a whole level of Keyes brand anime?

Ignore me if this isnt answered but you plan on doing so in future chapters, if thats the case Ill find out eventually

It's a little bit of column A and a little bit of column B! This is not terribly important to the story at large, so here are some thoughts about it:

Keyes and Earth have some interplanetary communication, though travel between them is difficult and only available to the very wealthy.

However, due to the Bearcat's nature, Agnes's people can pop on over to Earth if they want to with no problem! (As long as they have their pins to get back, that is!)

I thought it would be funnier to have Billy be a bit of an 'earthaboo' and directly reference anime that I personally found to be formative in my early life (like Dragon Ball Z). (Agnes is also a bit of an earthaboo, considering her interest in the 1920s-30s aesthetics.)

Making up my own brand of Keyes anime comes with the worldbuilding issue that is "wait, so is there a Keyes equivalent of Japan in this comic?" I did not want to make fictional analogues for real-life persons and places, because that can get sketchy/questionable really quickly if you're not careful, and BACKLASH is not about that, haha. BACKLASH takes place on a fictional planet with Earth-like touchstones for reader accessibility and also rule of funny. Some things are different, and others are the same! Those differences will come up in the comic but there's nothing too extreme.

The worldbuilding is a little loose and messy (which I apologize for) but this is my first comic and also a comic I've been making for almost 10 years so. You know. It's gonna be like that a little bit. D-don't think about it too hard, haha,,

[fablestudios]

So y’know when you have too many projects already but you just wanna keep tacking on to that list and can’t for your own arm and sanity’s sake because you still have school and an actual life? No? Ah well, that’s what I’m going through. This is just a ramble/rant/braindump below the cut, so feel free to move on with your day!

Well, first of all to list off my projects: Tales of Ismaria (an ongoing worldbuilding and story project that I keep making other art and writing for, check out my side blog for ToI if you’re interested, lol), V&T7K (the animatic series of it I’m hoping to start in the next month or two!), my friends’ D&D campaign (I’m dungeon master and just got a renewed energy for dming!).

Well I got another project idea! One that’ll probably sit in the back of my head as I work on others! Maybe if I finish V&T7K before I can reasonably start up toi (Tales of Ismaria), I’ll do it but who knows. Anyways, the idea!

I like to read. I don’t do it very much but I do enjoy it. One of my all time favorite comfort books series is this older series called Sammy Keyes. It’s not very popular as far as I know and that makes me sad. So my brain (that I think believes I’m able to clone myself and get more stuff done than I can) went “Hey, you’re making a series of this little-known concept, why not make a little animatic-style thing about Sammy Keyes”. And you know what, that is an amazing idea. Safe for the book in Vegas and the book on a cruise, I’d be using the same sets over and over, so it wouldn’t be much work, and I’d get to show love to something I’ve never seen much love shown towards.

Anyways, if you have thoughts, lemme know because I’m off to bed

[lanistas]

6,15,22,33 :D

Thank you! <333

6. 3 characters that inspire you

Delenn (Babylon 5). She has been my main source of inspiration for many years now.

Lucy Preston (Timeless). If I ever finish my phd, this will happen only because of her, because goodness knows I can barely look at my dissertation at this point, I’m so tired of it lol

Roberta Pellegrino (Il Paradiso delle Signore). There are many wonderful characters in this tv show that inspire me, but probably the one who taught me the most is Roberta, whose character journey gave me strength to work hard, to dream, and to not be afraid to live my own life.

15. 3 quotes that have a special place in your life

“How rare and beautiful it truly is that we exist”, a line from Saturn by Sleeping At Last.

“I didn’t know that similarity was required for the exercise of compassion!”, words said by Delenn in Babylon 5 s2ep18. I think about this quote very often.

“Io imploro il destino / E sei tu che rispondi”, a line from Ho cambiato i piani by Arisa (translation: “I implore fate / And it is you who answers”).

22. 3 movies/books/tv shows that made you cry

Okay, movies:

La vita è bella (1997). Oooooooooooh the amount of tears that I cried watching this movie could fill an entire ocean.

The Sound of Music (1965). I just love this movie very much, and I cried both happy and sad tears.

Klaus (2019). An animated movie that I watched four times. Cried every time.

Tv shows:

Babylon 5. I bawled my eyes out when I was watching the finale.

X Company. Can’t remember any other tv show that made me cry multiple times every single season.

12 Monkeys. Yeah, I cried, and I cried hard.

Books:

“The Nightingale” by Kristin Hannah.

“Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine” by Gail Honeyman.

“Flowers for Algernon” by Daniel Keyes.

33. 3 scented candles that you love the most

I don’t have a lot of experience with scented candles, because I am a little bit afraid of fire. When I think of lighting a candle inside my apartment, anxious thoughts about something that might go wrong always win, and I put the candle aside… so no answer here, sorry!

[each-uisge-and-glashtyn]

you reblogged 2 posts back to back correctly identifying the fandom and tagging appropriately (mdzs, aa). did you follow me into them and if you didnt then what fandom do you recomend? you are clearly a person of excellent taste. i'm looking for something that will leave me completely unhinged please and thank u

I have reblogged much of those fandoms, but i did not follow you into them!

A couple of my friends have loved AA for YEARS, and I've been (excruciatingly slowly) working my way through the first trilogy since like 2020. I just finished the second game. For as much as I adore Edgeworth, AA is.........not my favored game series. I'm debating figuring out how to rom the one with Simon Keyes so I can see my blorbo-in-law, though.

And my roommate got into MXTX right about when everyone else english side got super hyped up for the English release announcements, and ended up taking me down with her. MDZS is good, it's her favorite, but HOB/TGCF has my heart in a chokehold. You just can't beat 800 years of devotion like that!! Also the level of weirdo4weirdo hualian are is just *chef's kiss*. (Yes I've also read, and reblogged, svsss. Shen Yuan is just like me for real for real, and it infuriates me. I'd be more self aware if I transmigrated, and as soon as OOC lock came off? Fucking MY world now.)

Anyway, you're looking for recommendations. Uhhhhh. Truthfully, I'm not sure, since most of my unhinged brain rot series are (relatively) old and terminal at this point, as well as not being able to entirely account for personal taste. You're catching those two cause they're New and Active. And I apologize if i rec something you already are into, i can NOT keep track of all the fandoms I've seen people in over the years. But! Things I have brain rot over, in somewhat decreasing rot:

☆ D. N. Angel (manga by Yukiru Sugisaki) (the OG brainrot)

☆ Kuroshitsuji (manga by Yana Toboso)

☆ Devil Survivor & Devil Survivor 2 (jrpg video games by Atlus)

☆ Persona 4 & Persona 5 (jrpg video games by Atlus)

☆ K (anime by GoHands and GoRA)

☆ Fire Emblem: Three Houses & Fire Emblem: Three Hopes (jrpg video games by Intellegent Systems and Koei Tecmo)

☆ Amnesia series (japanese otome vn by Idea Factory)

☆ The Queen's Thief series (books by Megan Whalen Turner)

☆ The Queen's Blade series (books by TC Southwell)

☆ The Sylph series (books by L. J. McDonald)

☆ Captive Prince trilogy (books by C. S. Pacat)

Please be aware that most of these come with Content Warnings, and please either look them up or ask what they are if you're concerned!

I think most other things have brain rot characters in them, but aren't overall something I'm gone for. But!! I'm probably forgetting things!! Because I have a shit memory even for my beloveds!! If you want to know what gave me brain rot, even if only for a short time, checking out my tags or my AO3 bookmarks is the way to go. If I liked it enough to give it a tag or bookmark it, it's rotted some part of my brain at some point (esp bookmarks). I'd say if i wrote it too, but a couple things I wrote for an exchange despite not being what I'd normally care about. Good luck!!!

🌌, 🤍, 🖥️, 🍺, 🥊, 🎉 and 🎧 for the halo ask game :D

thank you so much for the ask!!

🌌 - what made you interested in halo?

So because of Wolf 359 I became obsessed with the character dynamic where there's a person and their AI bestie and from what i could gather from gifsets with Chief and Cortana I thought they'll likely fuck me up as much as Eiffel and Hera in Wolf 359. AND THEN THEY DID. 10000000/10

🤍 - favourite halo character?

Hell there's so many of them but to name a few in no particular order:

Arbiter cause it still fucks me up how great his story is + when i first played Halo 2 i was sort of freshly ex catholic and well. And I love to see his dedication to making things better and the way he approaches that.

Kurt cause *gesturing to all of Ghosts of Onyx* yeah. I can't think about it too much without crying

Rtas Vadum (here's my recommendation for Shadow of Intent)

Chief cause *gesturing to all of Halo* but what really cemented it was Fall of Reach showing how much he blamed himself for stuff outside of his control like the fucking augmentation deaths and how reading his convo with Mendez about that made me wanna tear my hair out. Like holy fuck what was done to him was so fucked up and he doesn't even realize the full extent of itttt.

Cortana - beside her realtionship to Chief I loved seeing her work on all those ships in First Strike including the whole capture of the flagship and then all that stuff with the slipspace crystal

Six - there's the tragedy of them signing up to get revenge against the covenant and then being used by ONI against other humans that makes them live rent free in my head, plus there's so much unexplored by canon potential - the Assembly datapads, their interactions with Kat as another Beta company Spartan, what would their thoughts on Spartans and ONI be given what he was used for compared to what he wanted? Also I wished he had a chance to talk to Cortana too, it would maybe make him happy to hear about her hacking Ackerson's bank account, even if for obvious reasons he wouldn't be able to talk about their previous work freely and Cortana wouldn't probably be able to share that freely too.

Jacob Keyes - I'm really fond of all his stunts with ships plus the terminal about him trying to resist the flood fucks me up.

🖥️ - favourite AI?

Beside Cortana for reasons mentioned above, I love Mac from Contact Harvest a lot (idk if you've read the book yet so I'm not gonna spoil much, just that he starts off as kinda endearing and then stuff gets revealed that makes him fascinating and then finally the epilogue makes me cry). I also think that the more ONI-affiliated AIs are interesting too, like Black Box or even Araqiel cause of how they rationalize their participation in all the fucked up shit compared to, for example, Deep Winter trying to prevent the gammas from getting augmented the way they were. Plus even here it's interesting to look at how they interacted with or saw others like BB joking with Osman in Rossbach's World or Araqiel calling Ackerson good/honorable in First Strike (can't remember the precise word used but still it's so funny like bro you probably killed people together).

🍺 - who would you have a drink with?

Hmm maybe the Grey Team? Like even with my decent alcohol tolerance I probably wouldn't keep up with Spartans for long but still. A small price to pay for hanging out with Adriana.

🥊 - who are you beating the shit out of?

I know Ackerson did get wrecked by those brutes but it wasn't enough for me and every time I remember that the whole thing got framed as heroic I feel like adding on another hit. I'd say I hope every single S III + Kurt lined up to punch him in the afterlife but really it would be cruel to force them to have to put up with him in any way again lmao.

(And while we're here I'll respond to your answer to my ask and say I feel similar to you about Jun lmao. Like Jun bro why are you helping make the torture labirynth of Spartan projects even worse.)

🎉 - share your favourite character headcanon

I think the headcannon that Six loves flying is kinda popular from what I saw in some fics (which makes me damn happy) and my own take on that is that it started from a suggestion from Kurt, like a nudge for Six to get some advanced pilot training, after he noticed that Six didn't really like being compared with Chief by ONI people who were hyped to create another hyper-lethal vector. I like to imagine Kurt saying something like "You know, John always hated flying" and maybe the interest was there before but now it really kicked off cause they got encouraged to pursue something that they as a person Liked and something that set them apart yknow?

(btw i got so many Six headcannons, here i went with probably the least sad one jhgfdjhg)

🎧 - song you associate a halo character with

Foreign Skies by The Dreadnoughts is such a Noble Six song to me, fits both the theme of the tragedy of Reach and of the happiness of being with the team even for that short time.

thanks again for the ask, and for your reply to mine, I especially like your thoughts about Dot, gonna listen to those firefight voicelines later, and I absolutely agree on Six being a cat person
