I don't know if my previous ask pulled through, but I'm wondering if you have any favorite Human Garde character outside of the Fugitive Six?

It did, but I was debating on waiting on answering until I read Sam and Six's novellas because from what I've heard I think I'll really like Nemo and Max.

But right now I'm really interested in Einar. I don't know if I *like* him, but he's definitely trying to make a positive difference for the rest of the garde. His and Five’s relationship kinda gets me because they both get something out of it (Five gets Einar's legacy to calm him down, and Einar gets Five’s power), but sometimes it feels like Einar is kinda using/manipulating Five a little.

I REALLY like Vontessa (or however you spell her name) and the idea of some Mogadorian's also getting legacies. I definitely think Adam and Rex got some, but they're never mentioned? No one even really wonders about it except for Vontessa?? We don't know if John goes to check on Adam ever again after the end of the first series??I'm kinda mad about that part...sorry for mini mog rant...

it did dw, i've been busy with work lol (fuck customers i hate them) but here's my answer!

obviously just outside of the fugitive six it'd be sam, but i assume you're asking about non-main characters. i know she's not technically a HUMAN-garde, but vontezza is very cool and i wish we knew more about her, so she's probably my favourite. of the humans, daniela is my favourite. her legacy is cool (love medusa) and i always love when the human characters insult the garde because it's very funny. thanks for the ask!

i don't want to start any blasphemous rumors but i think that god's got a sick sense of humor and when i die i expect to find him laughing

[solradguy]

I thought the early 2000s "strong yet naked/mostly naked woman kept in her place by stronger, bigger, beast/monster or gang of racist caricatures" trope* was known by basically everyone but I mentioned it as a criticism of this older art book I'd flipped through recently to a friend and it turns out it isn't lol Maybe I've just read too many Heavy Metal issues... It used to be HORRIBLY inescapable in any sort of mature art scene back in the day lmao

*This trope is different from the pre-2000s one because the women usually look like they COULD fight back for at least a little bit whereas the previous trope had them be completely helpless damsels in distress

I do not want to add to my "every person on D&D posts" post because I already get weird enough comments as is but another one is definitely "person who think they are subverting the system and talks about this but is in fact either playing extremely within the system, or is subverting the system in the dumbest way imaginable"

[APPARENT] BODY ART

Art + Body in the age of Artificial Intelligence

In the laboratories of our digital era, we witness the metamorphosis of the human species. A ferment. A transformation. Synthetic flesh. Apparent bodies. Inert codes. A new aesthetic and ethos where artificial intelligence leads the vanguard of a delusional revolution.

We find ourselves on the brink of a new world’s short circuit. Ultra-sophisticated algorithms mimic, emulate, and influence reality. Profiles take shape on screens within the patterns. Social media serves as testing grounds. Fabricated existences are staged to make a strong impact alongside the true essence of the skin we inhabit. Digital images become the epidermis upon which we tattoo our new identity. Amidst pixels, upon bones. Programmed, audacious, mundane, sequenced, stitched, inflated, sculpted, engraved, assembled, filtered, shared—without remorse and free from the physical limits of our birth, yet irreversibly dependent on formulas. The body we wear is the image we desire. Our imperfect nature does not belong to us, and the obsessive pursuit of perfection embodies its denial. We are both perpetrators and victims of our flesh: corporal colonisation, and cerebral annihilation.

Body = Social Relationship

Body = Image

Body = Capital

Body = Spectacle

This artistic project becomes a political act in this social context. Disorder. Contamination. Artistic creation. Poetic revolt. A manifesto of rebellion. A conflict against the loss of control over one’s own body. An exaggeration of everything imperfect: diseases, metamorphoses, alterations, marks on the skin. Since identity is made of images, this project is an explosion. The images of bodies explode. Bodies seemingly alive, silent, screaming, breathing, moaning. Flesh and blood, wounds and scars, muscles and bones, intestines and skin, amniotic fluid and sweat. Silences and noise. A testimony of inclusivity, an exposure of diversity. Every wound, cut, and fragment of flesh is a transition from representation to reality in the digital ritual where the viewer is both victim and executioner. A transgression of social taboos against toxic standards in a society founded on physical models upon which identity is traditionally conceived, standardized, granted, and authorized. A generative action, deliberately extreme. Embarrassment, surprise, disgust, excitement. In this gallery of images, bodies and faces are the absolute language. A condemnation not only of the commodification of art but also of the very essence of our humanity, against industries that would turn our bodies into mere objects, our souls into merchandise. Shreds of bodies become traces of presence, of silenced stories, bitten words, humiliated existences, abused bodies, used, consumed.

Here, in the era of social media and life projected on screens, apparent body art takes shape. It is born from the emotional impact of existing in two realms simultaneously, where our bodies become the battleground for our ideals—the “bristling hairs” of rebellion against a society that tries to force us into bodies that don’t belong to us and to modify us from childhood to be accepted.

Just for a moment, try to perceive beauty beyond commodified perfection. Life through a new lens—one that values the grandeur of bodily existence in all its forms. Look at the intensity of these faces. Can you see the light filtering through every scar and crevice? Follow the movements of these bodies. Pause to listen to the sounds—the whispers, moans, and grunts—that speak a language deeper than words. And as you do, savour, smell, and touch your skin, hold the flesh deeply. Feel the warmth of life in a way that no technology can replicate.

These images are a declaration of freedom, a reclaiming of the apparent body as a site of resistance for asserting the real body in all its varied imperfections.

No, but-

Imagine how much Nine had to twist around the story of the New York brawl so that his students wouldn't know he lost to FIVE of all people. He felt so lucky the only footage there was was him spinning Five around like some Olympic sport.

Nigel: Ooooh, that sounds lush. Nine: I know, he didn't stand a chance to begin with. Ran:... and it took you an entire day? Nine:... yeah. Well, anyway, I ended up hitting him hard enough his metal head open- literally. John: No. Taylor: What? John: Happened the other way round. I ended up having to get him because Five- Nine: Hey- John:
