It's so important to me that Palamedes was in such heartbreak/denial about "Dulcinea" for all of GtN that he was just very very wrong about her identity until the last moments

Name your top 5 favorite Yakuza Like A Dragon final bosses including spin-off's such as Judgment, Lost Judgment, Ishin, etc. and why?

OOF. Tough one. Favorite is Ryuji. I shouldnt have to defend that, but if I must Im a sucker for an over the top spectacle and Ryuji is just so good in everything.

2nd is Kuwana, because combat and story is just so good in LJ and while I think Soma has better sound track, Kuwana hits much harder for story.

3rd is Shibusawa. Zero is my fav yakuza, but lets be real, Kuze is where its at. You said final though, so here's Shibusawa.

4th is a dark horse, Mine. I love Mine's character, and I am a three apologist. The combat sucks so I cant put him higher, but I do love 3's story.

5th I'll say Tendo from LAD. Okay, there is a fight after him, but its a joke. Tendo's music is great, and LAD has changed the game. I didnt care for the insta kill move, but I have to respect the work they put into LAD

Is… is this a date?

100% this, absolutely! However, I don't think the Jedi would cast him out and that they would forever hold it over his head. The Jedi are all about forgiveness and growth. They would definitely treat it with the seriousness it called for, but they wouldn't kick him out for it. They would chastise him, he would be punished, and they would try to help him move past it, learn from his mistakes. They would try to help him work through what drove him to do it in the first place. He definitely needs, deserves, to be judged and chastised, corrected. It's just up to him whether he allows himself to accept the punishment and correction and use it to be better.

Whether he would allow them to help is a whole nother question (but if he's telling them of his own volition, I imagine he'd be a little more open than he is in canon).

Idk. There's just something about loving correction and forgiveness and help and unconditional love and acceptance being offered freely, but rejected due to feelings of inadequacy and fear and overwhelming guilt and the manipulation of an outsider with evil intent... it sounds familiar.

Very similar to the dynamics between God, us, and Satan. its not a perfect analogy or comparison, there's a lot of different ones to pull from star wars from various angles. but thats just what this particular bit of lovely meta reminded me of this fine night.

Thinking a lot about how by the time TCW comes about Anakin has already committed a grievous sin, already committed a massacre, already chosen his side in some ways. The man Ahsoka knows, the only version of him she ever gets to know, is built on an assumption of purity he has already lost.

He has already begun to fall, and this slip contributes in so many ways to his inability to pull himself back. Because the only person other than Padmé he tells his crime to is Palpatine, because he's the only person who won't judge him (and that in and of itself is a measure of his immaturity–– because he deserved to be judged).

And this contributes so much to Palpatine's control because he has this piece of the puzzle, this ability to go "Oh, but what about this?" any time Anakin tries to pull back from Palpatine's confidence. Because they both know if he ever admitted it to the Order he'd forever lose their approval, and that's what matters most. So Palpatine has this advantage, because he knows more about Anakin than anyone else and Anakin doesn't feel he can confide in anyone else.

But the thing is: for so long, Anakin wants to be better, wants to amend himself for this sin and more than once wants to confess to Obi-Wan, but every single time Palpatine is able to go "Oh but he thinks he's so much better than you, he would never understand you, he would judge you and tell the Order and they'd cast you out" but... Obi-Wan would have forgiven him anything.

I think a lot about Obi-Wan being such a Perfect Jedi (in the eyes of everyone else if nothing else) and how much that hurts Anakin. Because every time he tries to pull himself back from the ledge this epitome of what it means to be a Jedi is just there in his face reminding him of his own failure

I could think of no better way to share the news than this!

So when I was 17, my cat went missing and I'd given up hope of ever seeing him again.

Until on Monday, 27th of May, 2024, my friend sent me a FB post asking 'isn't that your mother?' about the person named on the microchip.

Here he is! 16 years old, and found safe, twelve whole years after he went missing!

Yesterday (Tuesday the 28th of May, 2024) I went to the rescue that had him, and I reclaimed my boy, renaming him Artie! (He'd originally been called 'Cat' because my mother and I couldn't decide on a name)

He's home safe with me now, currently inhabiting my bathroom and purring up a storm every time someone goes in there!

I'll be doing slow introductions between him and my current cat to give them the best possible chance of living in harmony!

Here's some pictures of Artie once we let him out of the carrier:

imagine being someone at new rome university and not knowing percy is the same guy as “percy jackson, son of poseidon, two-time hero of olympus, former praetor” because the thought doesn’t even cross your mind. like… he’s percy. he’s a total frat boy. on a normal night, he walks into a party, refers to everyone as bro or dude, socializes with every living (and not-living) person in the room, makes at least 50 sarcastic comments, plays 12 rounds of beer pong, drinks way too much, and then skates around campus on his skateboard yelling “I LOVE NEW YORK” (which makes no sense, because they’re in california) until someone calls his girlfriend to come get him.

and then one day there’s an attack, and frat boy percy is all of a sudden a fighting machine. he’s yelling battle cries alongside the praetors frank zhang and hazel levesque as they lead everyone into battle. (why is he with the praetors? and why…. why in the world do the praetors seem to be following his lead?) his sword slashes through armies of monsters faster than you’ve ever seen. he’s controlling the entire river surrounding the camp, creating huge waves as tall as skyscrapers that crash down all around him, wiping out monsters and causing mass destruction to his enemies’ ranks. the sky is suddenly dark above you, ice-cold water droplets are slashing through the air, and the wind is blowing so aggressively that it’s making it hard to stand up steadily. because he’s somehow created a hurricane.

and he looks terrifying. you can feel the power radiating off of him. he’s like a god. or maybe a monster. it’s hard to tell. you’re a little scared of him, to be honest. but also in total awe, because it’s extraordinary. he’s extraordinary.

frat boy percy is not who you thought he was.
