#I still find that weird

[dreamsausage]

just had a dream. ok its getting to the point where I'm dreaming about emmet from pokemon

basically I had a dream where I was playing a pokemon legends game/watching a pokemon legends TV show? it was fully voice-acted but I didn't recognise a single voice.

the main protagonist was emmet. from what I could tell, he had gone back in time to find ingo, but he was sent to the wrong region. he kept looking around and trying to find ingo, but...

anyway, he realised at the start that he didn't have any pokemon. he managed to befriend a ralts and called her Analisa. then he began travelling with Analisa around the region to get his bearings. there were people, but not many. some people had similar clothes — maybe part of a group? the outfit was a lavender-ish pink colour with dark boots and a hood with a brim.

he fought a lot of pokemon, and kept a lot as well. he didn't have pastures or a pc, so the pokemon would just be around nearby wherever he went. Analisa stayed by his side the whole time, and by this point she had evolved all the way into gardevoir.

no matter what had happened or where they were, emmet stayed enthusiastic and focused on finding his brother. he asked everyone he met about him, and got some information from people who had been to hisui and met him before, but emmet still didn't know where he was. he kept his coat and hat on so that if ingo saw him, he would recognise it.

at one point he came upon a large mountain. he had been told that there were huge flying types at the top of it that could help him get over to hisui to find ingo, so he was hoping to tame one. unfortunately, he didn't have a pokemon that could help him climb up the side of the mountain, so he had to go inside a cave that apparently led to someone's house — but this person wasn't fond of visitors, and the whole cave was an obstacle course filled with traps.

at first, emmet and Analisa made it through pretty easily, and they passed the first two obstacles quickly. then came the halfway point. this time, it was a huge, vertical slope, not too steep, but it had large grooves cut into the ground — and before emmet could get a good look at them, GIANT FUCKING BALLS OF STONE started rolling down from the top.

emmet panicked and tried to dodge them, and was doing pretty well, until Analisa missed her footing and got hit by a ball. he ran over to her and got her out of the way, slipping her into a bit in between. he didn't want to continue without Analisa, and he couldn't carry her for the rest of the way, so he started calling for help and hoping someone would come.

then the balls started rolling more frequently. there was less space between each one for him to move to the next bit. he kept trying to dodge them, but eventually he got hit by one. it hit his back, but even though he had sewn some leather onto the back (to make it last longer) it still hit him really hard and he couldn't get back up.

at this point he was losing hope and basically just went "welp guess this is it for me lol" and just kinda lay there. another chunk of rock was about to roll down and crush him, but then an old guy who looked a bit like ramos came and did FUCKING NINJA STUFF OR SOMETHING and took emmet and Analisa to the house at the top — ya it was that guy.

while he was helping emmet, diantha showed up???? but she was all glowy and slightly tinted pink. she was teasing the old man and laughing at emmet (barely conscious by this point) and the old man told her to fuck off so she left. time kind of fast-forwards a bit here, and emmet is back up on his feet along with Analisa.

it seems he's made friends with the old man (who had been meaning tone down some of those courses for a while) and had chatted with him a lot about pokemon and the hisui region. old man gave him some pokemon that were unique to the region, one of them being a pika-clone that looked kind of like a lemming? it was electric-fighting.

emmet made his way up to the top, but I don't remember much of what happened next. the dream from that point on kind of cut into a bunch of people I don't know playing pokemon leaf green on a train together. I wish I knew what happened next.

I remember exactly what emmet's outfit was like. I stopped several times (when it was a game) to get a better look at his outfit because I thought it was cool.

he had a thick, white jumper on under his coat that looked handmade (wow emmet takes up knitting real). he also had chunky steel-toed boots which were black, and very well-worn.

his coat was covered in patches where he's had to repair it and the bottom of it was slightly torn. the back of the coat was covered by a big patch of dyed-blue leather, which was scratched but obviously well kept — it wasn't dry or cracked, and there wasn't much sun damage. I think he cleaned it often.

his hat was surprisingly intact, and he never really took it off. he wasn't bald underneath because his hair had gotten longer and you could see his fringe (ha take that bald truthers). he had also attached a large red hood onto the back of his coat that fit over both his head and his hat, and he kept it tucked in while not using it. he had also sewn some really REALLY deep pockets onto the inside of his coat, and he had really deep pockets on his trousers too. explanation for inventory ig?

it was in 3d, and the animation was super fluid and pretty — the shading was colourful and comfy to look at. each area they went to looked slightly different. there was a flat, moor-like one, a sandy one, a rocky beach, and one with craggy cliffs and hills. emmet managed to get through all if them just fine, and got about two pokemon from each area. nowhere close to a pokedex but he tried his best.

anyway that was it, very surreal but very clear, like all my dreams...

they should make shopping for cables easier i think. there should be a service where you pick the ends, you pick the length of cable, you pick the like. color and texture of the cable (shitty plastic, nicely woven, bare metal, whatever) and then they make it and ship it to you for a reasonable fee

i dont think fandom people who only think about male characters and only create content for male characters are like horrible misogynists but i do think they often have some shit they need to unpack. like how can you , for example, play life is strange and the only thing you come away with from that is you want nathan and warren to fuck nasty. how can you watch birds of prey, and the only thing you come away with from that is you want roman and victor to fuck nasty......... like idk! idk! i just find it strange especially when people will engage with media Specifically about women and then put no effort in to empathize or care about them, sometimes even going far enough to say they HATE the female characters and that theyre bitches... IDK!!!!

you're nice to people who are bald or balding, right? you're nice to people with high hairlines? or weird hair growth? right? you don't make mean jokes about going bald at the expense of people who are going through the very scary and usually very isolating process of losing hair?? right???

So I've been thinking lately about how Mithrun is Kabru's dark mirror (more on that another time- it needs its own post), and I thought it interesting that one of their parallels is that they were both cared for by Milsiril, but in opposite directions. She took Kabru in as her foster after he was orphaned and tried to convince him not to become an adventurer. On the flip side, she helped rehabilitate Mithrun specifically so that he could rejoin the Canaries.

And I kept wondering: why?

For Kabru, obviously she loves him a whole lot- despite any other shortcomings in their relationship, I do believe that.

So I get why she tries to convince him not to go dungeoning, and, failing that, at least prepares him as thoroughly as she can.

But why help Mithrun? She used to hate Mithrun, but after realizing what a secretly twisted person he was, she actually thought of him more positively (oh, Milsiril). So it wasn't as if she held the kind of grudge that might motivate her to make his already-depleted life even more miserable by sending him back to the dungeons. And it wasn't that she felt bad for him either, since she didn't visit Mithrun for the first ~20 years of his recovery.

The Adventurer's Bible says that Utaya was the impetus for Mithrun returning to the Canaries, but Milsiril is the one who made the trip to see him and tell him about it.

Why would Milsiril work so hard to get her old coworker back into fighting fit? Why encourage him to return to such a dangerous lifestyle, when she was the one who chose not to mercy-kill him?

That last panel is such a crazy thing to hint at and then never elaborate on. Without it we could have just thought that Milsiril wanted the Canaries' work to continue without her, even if it seemed out of character. I think some people even assume she's just a natural caretaker as a foster mom and handwave it to include nursing Mithrun too. What could Milsiril's suspicious motives be? What does she gain from Mithrun joining the Canaries that isn't an altruistic desire to see dungeons safely sealed? Feeling a sense of responsibility for the work she left behind isn't an ulterior motive.

My theory is: Milsiril, knowing that Mithrun was empty save for the burning desire to face the demon again, wound him up like a clockwork doll and pointed him back at the dungeons.

Hoping that he'd eliminate the biggest threat to Kabru's life, before it was too late for him.

Milsiril the puppetmaster.

Disgustingly messy and crusty sketch dump but I couldn't get my own terrible theory out of my head and ended up making a bunch of sketches about it. Also at the end a bonus dickbats and Damian doodle bc I was reading an issue of their Batman and Robin run (IDs in Alt)

So y'all remember how fucked Danny Phantom was? That is a whole dead child, his parents shoot at him on the reg. It's Stellar, I'm a FAN.

I’m convinced that people who hate Mabel have a) never watched the show and/or b) don’t have siblings. Because until they encountered Bill Cipher for the first time, there was nothing to suggest Dipper’s obsession with the journals was more important or valid than Mabel just wanted to have a normal summer with a whirlwind romance. And even after incident with the portal Dipper and Ford actively keep everything secret from Mabel and Stan so she has no idea of the stakes or what Bill is capable of. Add to that that her dreams of the future were all suddenly crumbling around her all at once, and it is perfectly reasonable if not expected that she would fall for an immortal chaos demon’s tricks.

Also, most of the stuff involving the journal that goes wrong is Dipper’s fault but he still pretends like he and Mabel are in it together. And those of you who are siblings know that Mabel takes it extremely well. Like if I had accidentally sold my body as a puppet to a demon and the only way I could ask my sibling for help was through a sock puppet, I would expect them to help, but only after they spent a good half hour laughing and making fun of me with the additional consequence would be that any time I ask them for a small favor in the future, they would remind me that they were the one to save me from my stupid mistake, so no, they won’t pass me the salt.

(Also, can we just take a moment to see the giant double standards when it comes to the romances that Dipper and Mabel’s have. When Mabel pursues a romantic people treat it as irrelevant and getting in the way of the plot even when it doesn’t. But when Dipper tries to win Wendy’s affection, people expect Mabel to drop everything, sacrifice her pet, mess with time travel to help set up a scenario which Dipper can win a carnival game as a flex.)

hey do you guys wanna see a comic for a msa au me and my friend ascel came up with? trick question yes you do. anyway- hehehehehhhoo body swap au <3.

okay quick context for this rq- this is an au where it diverges after freaking out- instead of possessing the truck, lewis ends up chasing the gang for a while, maybe a week or two? arthur and vivi don't know why this random ghost they met ages ago keeps going after them, but one things for sure- he really, really wants arthur's head on a spike.

cut to the present- arthur got separated from vivi and mystery, and lewis ends up chasing him into the woods!
