i dunno why i came back to this. i think i just wanted to get him out of that giant head. pt. 1 / pt. 2

contemplating unexplained imprinting phenomena such as that of donor organs being imprinted with the traits and habits of their previous owners showing up in recipients post-surgery, and the case of eastern air lines flight 401, from which salvaged parts were used in other planes and the deceased crew members were reported to have been seen by the crew of these new planes up until the parts were replaced

imagine this in the context of cybertronian medics salvaging parts from cadavers and using them to repair soldiers, who then go on experiencing personality shifts, changes in habits, tastes and preferences reminiscent of their deceased donors, perhaps even culminating in unexplainable voices heard in their audials and familiar-but-not visages greeting them in their reflections...

Hypothetically, let's say yjh and sp got into a brawl (not fight!! But brawl!!) And they are not allowed to use their powers, not transcend or murim martial arts, just pure physical fight with muscles, Who would win according to you?

You. Are asking me. To powerscale Yoo Joonghyuk. The Kim Dokja fragment resonance is at fucking 1000%. But alright, sure.

In canon when SP and YJH had their rival arc it came down to their stories, and in the end, the only difference was that 3rd had companions and SP didn't. The 'power of friendship' won, I'm being 100% serious. They even say it here.

Buuut you're asking me to ignore all the themes and magic powers like a true redditor and judge just by the circumference of their manly muscles. I can respect that.

I still think Yoo Joonghyuk is winning. Here's why:

1. YJH is actively going through the scenarios and honing his battle skills in real life and death situations every day. Even if SP keeps in practice with the sword (which I'm not sure he does often?) he is retired and no amount of training can replace real life. YJH's instincts will simply be sharper in this case.

2. SP relies on his powers a surprising amount. Yoo Joonghyuk has hard rules for himself that say 'no cheating with the system' - he trained in the time fault for a hundered years in the 2nd regression, he insisted on learning the actual murim swordmanship instead of buying a skill, he jogs in the epilogue to keep in shape where everyone else relies on stats.

SP doesn't seem to have this hangup. Anytime he's on screen he's using some kind of ability, even for dumb shit like summoning wine and pushing Kim Dokja out the door and slamming it with his mind. He has gotten used to these conveniences. I don't think he has a single conversation on screen where he doesn't use some kind of magic trick. The price for this must be that his actual skills get rusty (er than Yoo Joonghyuks. He could still beat every other incarnation's ass in a second, don't make a mistake. We're looking at the minute differences between two monsters here.)

If we're taking away even the passive stuff like outer god aura, which is the thing that makes him intimidating, the chances that he is just as good as YJH are suddenly not so great. So sorry, his ass is not winning.

I hope that answers your question. In any case, the problem in powerscaling is that who wins a fight in fiction is less about who is stronger but more 'which scenario serves the plot best in this moment'. It all depends on the kind of situation they're in or what kind of story the author wants to tell. <- Got a little too into this, have to briefly remind everyone that I still understand themes and plot. I promise I'm not a redditor!

The whole "you're just sexist" response to Lanolin really rubbing a lot of fans the wrong way is the last thing I want to hear from a fandom that spent over two decades perpetuating shit like portraying two female characters being catty and antagonistic towards each other over a guy when it came to Amy and Elise(and still do it to this day), and Amy and Sally, when the characters in question never did any of that to each other in canon.

I may be old lol, but for me sexism in the Sonic fandom was (is, in some instances):

reducing Amy to an insane stalkerish yandere based on one (1) line in Sonic Heroes, a game that did everything but take itself seriously. Did anyone portray Espio as a callous gangster for lowkey threatening Cream to give away her pet? Yeah.

slutshaming Rouge to the point that even in Archie she was written as a cold, manipulative femme fatale willing to kiss the likes of Locke to get her way - ignoring that she uses far more than her feminine charms to achieve her goals and she can be kindhearted

reducing Maria to Shadow's trauma button, fully indulging in the "Stuffed in the Fridge" trope. What do you mean, we could flesh her out? She's only good to cause a man pain!

treating Elise like the worst character of all time for the crime of being a perfectly normal girl with a crush on a cartoon animal. The first part is what I want to focus on right now: Elise didn't karate chop her way out of Eggman's grasp, so that makes her a weakling. She is not #girlboss enough. Women can only be physical badasses and mean af.

Flynn himself propping up Blaze and Tangle as the only worthwhile female characters in the series purely for their fighting prowess, while dismissing Amy, Rouge and Cream for being "all over the place", too sexy, and too young (the same not said about Tails and Charmy: this is reflected in his writing, where only Cream gets infantilized).

So forgive me if I don't feel guilty for pointing to an unlikeable character who happens to have boobs and saying "wow, that character sure is unlikeable". Because I remind you, the stuff most people say about her was also said about male characters when relevant. Sexism would be slutshaming her for her big chest, for example, not pointing out legit grievances in the writing.

not sure it's legit, but it is a cute fit

I've been doing little drabbles to try and get Solas down and he's easier than I thought he'd be. Pathetic wet dog of a man. I love him so much.
