Tumblr media
I propose that the (talkie) sewing machine is an absolute gossip, and tells Kochanski everything that Kryten mumbled about her when he sewed things. Also, has regular banter with the Cat when he makes his suits and Lister when he sews his patches on. And maybe because the sewing machine is used all the time as opposed to talkie toaster, they aren't as butthurt about their job and Rimmer makes conversation occasionally.

IPC and related characters
With the release of Jade's kit, something clicked in my mind.
I believe the devs did their jobs on choosing the path and the kit for their characters (the elements are more random on most characters, not on everyone since a lot of characters fit their chosen elements, like March has Ice because of her special Ice powers, than we have Bronya with wind element while she is a soldier fighting in an ice age setting), because the kits of three of the Ten Stonehearts have something in common and that can lead to theorizing that is something in common with all of the Ten Stonehearts. I'm talking about the follow-up attack.
Two is a coincidence, three is a pattern and we have a nice pattern here. And also, their paths (Hunt, Erudition and Preservation) say a lot about them and their jobs.
Tumblr media
Topaz is a character following the path of Hunt and it's so fitting for someone who goes around to collect debt. She is actively "hunting" debts. Her stone is a yellow topaz, which is a birthstone for November and it is said to inspire "hospitality and friendship" and "produces an enduring, radiant energy", fitting Topaz's personality, she is friendly and cheerful, when not at work mode. Also, the topaz is a stone for protection.
Tumblr media
Aventurine is a Preservation character and all of his kit is around gambling. For someone who gambles a lot, having the role of being a shield seems to be contradictory. But I don't think so, Aventurine gambles with his life to protect himself (like he did by gambling with Jade for his own freedom). The aventurine stone is a stone that urges to take new opportunities and helps someone grow as an individual and it's associated with luck and good fortune. Exactly like Aventurine himself, which is blessed with luck.
Tumblr media
Jade is a character that follows the Erudition and we have seen her in the last Trailblazer Mission, doing both works for the IPC and works for herself. Her granting wishes shop made me think about Yuuko from xxxHolic, a story about a shop where a witch grants wishes with the clients paying an exact price for their wishes. And their prices go from memories to objects and also good luck. It's kind of a complicated story made by CLAMPS with their other story, Tsubasa Chronicles. If you know them, you should have found the resemblance between Yuuko's and Lady Bonajade's shops. The green jade is a stone that represents the heart (in the chakra system) and also the green color of jade was the color to use for the dead. Its symbolism includes associations with nobility and wealth, both things associated with Jade, since Topaz comments that for her, Jade is akin to nobility and obviously Jade is associated with wealth, a lot of it. Another thing is that jade is considered a protector of generations and she seems to "protect" both her juniors, Topaz and Aventurine. We don't know a lot about her to say anything related to her job and her path, but from what we have seen in the quest, she uses a lot of knowledge to make deals, like she is aware of the other side's budget to make deals with advantages for her side.
Back with the one common thing. The follow-up attack. This one I associate with Aha, the Aeon of Elation, since in Simulated Universe, by following this path, the follow up dmg is increased, and, the virtual paths are linked to the real ones. So, the Elation has a relation with the follow up attack. So, how come, three people belonging to a group "devoted" to the Aeon of Preservation have all a follow-up attack on their kits?
We know that their boss is an Emanator of Preservation, one of the very few who are working inside the IPC, but he is also an eccentric that surround himself with "unique and extraordinary" people, because Talent is the most precious investment of all. Could it be that he is an Emanator but not completely of the Preservation? This is speculative but what if Divergent Universe shows that Paths can fuse? We already know that Paths can be assimilated in another, like Order with Harmony, and that Phantalya was trying to merge the Destruction with the Abundance, so, what if Diamond, while being an Emanator of the Preservation, is also a follower of the Elation? I know, we still don't know a thing about Diamond and we have still seven more stonehearts to be released before saying with certainty that follow-up attack is part of the kit of every stonehearts. And we also have characters that have follow-up attacks in their kits and have no relation with the Elation, while having characters related with the Elation (Sampo and Sparkle) who actually don't have anything like a follow-up attack.
In conclusion, this turned up to be more an analysis on their stones that on their kit, with a bit of "why the paths they have actually fit their story" and lots of questions. I'm sure, the follow-up attack is an important part for the Stonehearts, I'm gonna bet on it.

in the meat timeline, they lost the embodiment of breath, the aspect of freedom, thus the narrative binds them to the narrators wishes, twisting them to his desires
in the candy timeline, they lost the embodiment of heart, the aspect of the soul. they lose their sense of self, becoming more and more detached from who they are as a person

me pre 7x04: yeah idrc about tommy as a love interest.
911 writers: okay but what if he was soft and kind and gentle? what if buck looks like he’s just found god when they kiss? what if he doesn’t even flinch when buck stumbles over his words because this is all new and he won’t hold that against him?
Oh and he’s also somehow so huge he makes oliver “built like a brick shithouse” stark look small by comparison? what will you do then?

Horrible thing to say but I think there's a real chance Jiang Yanli was both of her parents' least favorite child and knew it and just kinda. Had to go on with her life knowing that.
#mdzs#jiang yanli#yunmeng siblings#madam yu's favorite kid is jc. she doesn't. um. SHOW it in a very affirming way but he's clearly the one she's emotionally most invested in#jfm's favorite kid is wwx. is he even one of his kids? doesn't matter. he's the favorite#(madam yu does NOT see wwx as her child so he doesn't factor into the calculation for her.)#i think jfm's neglect of jc is talked about. mostly because the both jc and wwx are clearly aware of it and so it's mentioned in novel#but um... DO we see either of yanli's parents give much a shit about her? ever?#jfm doesn't even ask if she WANTS her engagement dissolved before doing so#also the reason stated by other characters for jfm not liking jc is that he's madam yu's child. you know who is ALSO madam yu's child?#i think jfm may find jc.. harder to get along with. but i also think whatever discomfort from his marriage he projects onto his kids#it also extends to yanli. it's just that he's not constantly REMINDED of yanli like he is jc#(because madam yu keeps yelling about it)#and so he just... doesn't think about her much at all#madam yu meanwhile treats yanli with this air of disappointment. she seems to resent that she's 'weak' and gentle and quiet#and that she cares so little about status so as to treat wwx like her little brother#i think yanli is just fundamenally so clearly... not the child either of her parents wanted. and it shows.#i'm slightly peeved fandom doesn't talk about this as much as they talk about the effects the jiang parents had on the two boys.#but to be fair to fandom the book doesn't either#which is probaly just danmei-typical misogyny. but to give a slightly more watsonian reason#i think the yunmeng bros are genuinely unaware of this. yanli is PERFECT how could her parents not love her?#(of course they notice something like zixuan's initial dislike of her but that's blatant.)#(vs the attitude of the jiang parents towards their daughter which seems to be mostly... disinterest and disappointment)

antoine + Ă©toiles insane moments, p.2. aka the ass saga. p1 here
transcript + context for some of the clips below
[Video Transcript:
[First clip plays.]
Rivenzi: You want to see Etoiles’ ass, of course

Antoine: Yeah, I’m gonna stare at your ass, Etoiles

Etoiles: Fuck, what dread, during Popcorn [a talkshow Etoiles had been invited on the previous week], when I went up to the map and you said that, and I thought ‘whoa—‘
Antoine: Sorry
[Second clip plays: the moment during Popcorn]
PA/Domingo: Antoine Daniel has posted a tweet for us: ‘I wanted to look at this map of Africa, but Etoiles’ ass in the shape of a standing bell is driving me crazy. Smiley face with eyes in the shape of hearts.’
[Third clip plays: a continuation of the first clip.]
Antoine: Sorry, bro

Ponce: Oh but that tweet, besides
Rivenzi: A standing bell

Antoine: What’s more is that I never tweet and when I do it’s to tweet this sort of shit
Ponce: That’s exactly what I told myself. When PA read the tweet, I thought to myself, ‘but he never tweets!’ And he tweets to talk about Etoiles’ ass
Antoine: There needs to be a good reason, you see
[Fourth clip plays: a clip from the Team du Lundi’s minecraft server.]
JDG: Someone (in chat) said, ‘I can’t tell whether the atmosphere is good tonight or—‘
Antoine: It sucks, it sucks
Florence: You don’t need to ask every time, it always sucks
Baghera: Always sucks. Especially when Etoiles talks about ass [which had been a previous topic of discussion for him that night]
Antoine: Stooop, I enjoy it
Mynthos: You enjoy it?
JDG: It’s true tonight that it’s more weird than bad
Antoine: I like it when Etoiles talks about ass
.
[Fifth clip plays: a second and different clip from Popcorn.]
Etoiles: —you’re not allowed to tell me that [Xari claimed to not know much about cinema]. I know you, I studied, because you’re my rival [in pop culture]. I really enjoy what you do in life, Xari, and you’re really knowledgeable about cinema
Antoine: What do you mean he’s your rival? And I’m just shit?
Etoiles: You, you’re my lover
Antoine: Oh yeah, sorry, my bad
PA/Domingo: One of the three is gonna die soon. There’s a whole situation, there’s a whole lore
[Sixth clip plays: a clip from the QSMP.]
Antoine: Don’t you want to get married, dude?
Etoiles: Well, I don’t have the time to fuck
Antoine: What the fuck?!
Etoiles: I don’t have time to fuck, dude. I just need to kill everyone
Antoine: No but just a marriage, you see. You’ve watched Game of Thrones— you haven’t watched Game of Thrones, you can’t know how marriages work in that series
Etoiles: I’ve watched it, but I’m married to the street, dude. I can’t give out my heart that quickly
Antoine: Yeah but you can give out your ass quickly, no?
Etoiles: No, frankly, my ass—
Antoine: What the fuck?!
Etoiles: Giving out your ass takes time, dude
Antoine: What the fuck

Etoiles: Then again, I need to think about it. I’ll give you my answer. I need to discuss, and everything
Antoine: I’m tired of getting betrayed. You get married with someone else—
Etoiles: Never in a million years!
Antoine: —it’s like yesterday. Apparently Maximus got the mic from his ass removed while I wasn’t there. I was supposed to be the one to do it
Etoiles: Oh okay, so I’m your second choice?
[Overlapping]
Antoine: No! It was just to help him—
Etoiles: No, but, okay
Antoine: He got— listen—
Etoiles: There’s no problem!
Antoine: Fuck, nevermind
Etoiles: There’s no issue! Oh, so you’re opening my chest and stealing?
Antoine: I was just looking! Out of curiosity
Etoiles: Yeah, that’s it
Antoine: I don’t even understand what’s in it
Etoiles: Yeah, out of curiosity. Dude, your opinion on my cave?
Antoine: Well frankly it’s big

#antoine daniel#etoiles#Ă©toiles#jay clips#qsmp#<- this is an appropriate tag wait till the end . it makes up half the video too#4/08/2024#le fameux bol tibĂ©tain d’étoiles
. traduit pour les inters#and i call it a saga here because the clips here span from early 2021 to mid 2023#you know the first clips are old because antoine is still using twt at that point#not included here; a zlan 2024 clip where Ă©toiles yells ‘fuck me in the ass’ (french) at antoine 👍#also not included ; a serveur du lundi clip where Ă©toiles jokes about antoine having a leash at home#antoine denying this and Ă©toiles saying ‘well i spent a weekend at your place’#????????? yeah sure why not#ALSO re the qsmp clip antoine brought up the marriage possibility after hearing about the upcoming spiderbit wedding <3#bro sounds so fucking needy in the clip it’s sending me . how can i make this into qantoine lore

. this WAS the period where things were#slowly changing within the french dynamic (aka . they were meeting and talking to new people) and qantoine was growing increasingly paranoi#about trusting people then

. him trying to hold onto someone he loves dearly because he’s not sure if he can keep up with him
..#anw some other translation type notes read if ur interested in that:#wasn’t quite sure on the best way to translate ‘l’angoisse’ here . i went with ‘dread’#literally it translates to ‘anxiety/anguish/dread/etc’ but it’s used in a very flippant way in slang#so anguish felt a bit strong here . when someone says ‘oh l’angoisse’ about something it’s usually to mean an uncomfortable or unusual#scenario . but the intensity of that very much varies#OH ALSO : if anyone wants the sources to each of these clips lmk#i may just add them here later when im less tired#insuline & nicotine

One of the things that makes me feel crazy on DMC5 replays is the way V phrases his request to Dante.
He doesn't say "we need your help to stop the demon." He says "A powerful demon is about to resurrect, and we need your help, Dante." The implication seems to be that V needs Dante's help to stop it...but if you've played it before, that's not what he's really asking. V needs Dante's help in order for the resurrection to take place. Because until Urizen is weakened V has no chance of rejoining him, so he needs Dante's help to weaken Urizen so he's primed for merging and bringing about Vergil's resurrection. The "we" V refers to could also absolutely be both V and Urizen in that case, instead of just some general "we" of humanity. So he's not really asking for help to stop the resurrection, but instead to bring it about, hiding the truth in plain sight and careful wording.
The DMC 5 localization can be wonky in some places, but in other places it just shines. "We need your help, Dante." Not to stop it. He never says that. It's to bring about the resurrection itself.

Broken System
I love it when the System breaks and gets shut down permanently, but what if it left its marks on its main user? Shang Qinghua won't be able to get out of explaining this even if he really, really wanted to.
