#I JUST THINK IT'S NEAT

[itsaboringname]

it manages to be so many things at once without compromising, gah it's just so damn good 😩 you can watch it like a silly cartoon, or like a grimdark sci-fi story, or a gay love story, or an allegory for several different kinds of abuse, or a political allegory, etc etc and it will have new things to say in each perspective.

I cannot ever overemphasize how much I respect she-ra as science fiction. It's not hard sci fi but I've not been anal enough to give a shit about that distinction for many years (and people forget that 2001's whole deal was the crystalline light beings with godlike power anyway so like, dw abt that). The whole thing with Light Hope and the Eternians and the Horde is just so damn compelling, the layers upon layers upon layers of manipulation and technocratism that make up the whole imperial cake buffet😚👌😚👌😚👌

Someone on a she ra meme sub: hey Reddit keeps suggesting this sub, even tho I haven’t seen she-ra. I do like gay cartoons. But like. How gay is it

A few people: I mean it’s not really gay until the last season

Me, without having read any other replies: it’s gay from the first episode if you know what subtext is

"We're gonna shoot for the sky."

"What."

"Sometimes killing is a must."

"What-"

"It's treasure!"

"What."

"All I gotta do is open this bag!"

"What?!"

I find it so fascinating that the Han Sooyoung that writes TWSA is the one that barely knows Dokja. In comparison to the HSY we follow, these two are practically strangers. HSY saw a sad, su1cidal, child and decided to dedicate her life to saving him. She doesn’t know Dokja like our HSY. This was a selfless-selfish act.

I personally think that ORV is a story about love and all the forms it can take. All love, to me, is the same at its core. YSA and the sisterly love she holds the company together with. Our HSY and the endless love she has for them all. The love between companions. ORV isn’t a romantic story but is a love story.

This other HSY feels like the love of a stranger. The kindness that motivates someone that barely knows you to move hell or high water. That HSY doomed the entire world for this little boy who would one day become this odd man she sees during her version of scenarios. She dedicated years to help this one person.

The way he opens his mouth and gasps when Lavellan first kisses him makes me go mmmm

you guys(gn) realize that while all of us like to bang on about how the silly weewoo show has rewired our brain chemistry or changed our lives or taught us things about ourselves and our place in the world, all of that has actually happened to Ryan too

At first glance, modern Mars doesn’t appear to be a very dynamic place. With an average surface temperature of about minus-80 degrees Fahrenheit and an atmosphere just one percent as thick as Earth’s, it is a freezing desert.

Strange, overlapping lines, often dozens of feet wide, can stretch for miles. Unlike many of Mars’ features, these are not relics. We see them appear and disappear. What are these bizarre, shape-shifting patterns?

In the mid-afternoon sun, heating of the Martian surface creates towering vortices, which can grow miles-high dust devils.

You might think that there was this tornado-force wind coming towards a rover, and it might pick the rover up and spin them around and do all sorts of horrible things. But in reality, the Martian atmosphere is actually very, very thin, and so you can have a dust devil pass over you, and you would barely even notice it. It’s thought that as these whirlwinds travelled over the rovers, they sucked dust off the solar panels like a vacuum.

But the cleaning power of the dust devils doesn’t just work on rovers. As they travel, these huge vortices suck up dust from Mars’ surface, exposing the darker bedrock beneath, leaving trails so large, we can see them clearly from space. There are no Martians creating the lines. The culprit is the Martian atmosphere.

Hi have a headcanon

I don't remember the exact line, but Gale says something along the lines of "man, if we weren't in this shit, I would court you properly" so what if

Once this is all over right

Him and Tav play pretend where they agree to meet up in a tavern somewhere separately from each other and pretend they don't know each other

And Gale, confidence boosted, just gets to... chat Tav up?

Bonus points if they do this when they're already married

Extra bonus points if Tav makes it more difficult by casting Disguise Self to see if Gale can still tell its them (he does, but sometimes it feels like cheating because he knows the feel of their magic so intimately that becomes more of a game to pretend he can't find them)

I think the thing I like most about the characters in Neverafter is how quick they all are to back each other up on the most ridiculous lies you’ve ever heard in your life.

Pib not missing a beat when Ylfa pulls out the adult sleepover bit. Pinocchio just quietly agreeing that yes he was, in fact, carved from the wood of Pib’s ship. The Prince of Shoeburg, Motherfucker.

I know people joke about Vio being an awful liar in the infiltration arc of the manga, but honestly, it seems to me like he's oddly good at it.

I'm usually really irked when characters (who are trying) aren't able to lie their way out of a situation (because they're bad at it or stumble over the explanation), but that didn't happen with Vio. Everything he told Shadow when he got caught at the mirror made sense.

"Why did you hit him?" (Shadow is cautious, but not outright hostile. He trusts Vio enough to hear him out.)

"I was examining the mirror, and he just attacked!" (This is technically true. The hinox didn't know about Tingle being there or what Vio was actually doing, he just attacked. Vio was defending himself.) "I think he was sleep walking." (Outright lie. But not a very suspicious one. Could have been waved off as a misunderstanding had the situation been de-escalated.)

"Someone was trying to break the mirror!" (Shadow doesn't seem to be looking at Vio, he doesn't immediately suspect him. Vio notices.)

"I saw a strange little man earlier." (True.) "It might've been him." (Not accusing, just shifting focus to another suspect.)

"The last two heroes may have snuck in." (Shadow believes him, presumably, and tries to rationalize who Vio may have seen. Because who tf even is Tingle at this point.)

"Yeah..." (Vio rolls with it, attempting to widen the suspect pool. Probably the only place he really fumbled, but hindsight is 20/20, he didn't know the full scope of the mirror or why Shadow might be approaching it.) "That's probably it." (Sealed his fate here. Had he just said, "no, it was someone else," Shadow might not have tried to check their location, though he may have anyway given it was on his mind.)

From here it just falls apart, but I'd argue it had less to do with Vio's lying ability and more with dumb luck (or lack thereof). I do think Vio could have spun the situation with Green being alive had he the time to, but the mirror kinda outed him and his murderous ways before it came to that (Green's group has a fairy. Prolonged observation of the group would have revealed that eventually, Vio just had to double down on the confusion up until then and he'd probably be fine?)

Really makes you wonder what the og Link was like for Vio's acting to be so convincing.

Shout out to @kayciedoomfor the absolutely perfect song selection here.

Anyways, I'm obsessed with the idea of an Arcane 90's boombox AU, so this is where that came from. Gonna have to do more of these methinks.
