"He realized she could indeed be catlike. She could be as suspicious of others as a stray cat, but when there was food to be had she would come just close enough to get it, take as much as she could, and then she would be gone again."
if Jinshi just keeps "pspsps"ing enough surely it'll pay off???

Also while I’m talking about PJO, I really hope that the beach fight scene is badass in the show. Like Percy has not used his powers at ALL so far and I hope the beach fight scene we get hints of how terrifying he can be when he’s actually using them like in the later books
#percy jackson#pjo tv show#I also hope that the fight scene isn’t. yknow. more than 2 seconds long#that’s my biggest complaint about the show so far tbhhh the fights go way too quick and they feel a little underwhelming#which like. considering how the main series ENDS? is concerning#if we get one really good fight scene I hope it’s the beach one pls

Slumber party question! What's your earliest memory of encountering beauty? The first thing you can recall where you looked at something and were struck by how beautiful it was?
#i'm asking because i heard 'colors of the wind' today#and i remembered when i was little#i saw a commercial for pocahontas in front of one of our movies#and it showed 'colors of the wind'#and i distinctly remember a shot where she's standing on a cliff with her hair streaming back and leaves swirling around her#and thinking it was the most beautiful thing i'd ever seen in my life#(i didn't see the movie until i was much older and was very underwhelmed)#i also recall going to a county fair where a woman was selling doll clothes#and there was a pink dress with a skirt made of layers and layers of lace#i thought it was the most beautiful dress in the world and mom got it for me#(at a time when there was not much spare cash)#the other earliest moment is a memory of getting to walk beside my mother as she went to communion#and being so happy because my church had stained glass windows showing the mysteries of the rosary#so the front right corner showed the coronation of mary#and i thought that window was the loveliest thing i'd ever seen#it was the beautiful window into heaven only grown-ups got to see but this was my chance

'Man Yells at Wolf', Ancient Dalish Legend (origin unknown)
#you unlock this as a mural if you collect all the ocularum shards + do all the elven artifacts + if you save the druffalo in the Hinterlands#the real reason the evanuris killed Mythal was because she was killing their aesthetic with her basic look that datv gave her#you did all of this for 'background elf number 12' Solas? OkAY#the most underwhelming design of a character that has been built up since the first game - concept art Mythal u are superior in all ways#why is Elgar'nan yelling at Solas? You tell me lmao#he has his foci orb hover above him like a little sun#and I had Mythal with two little moon ones since she's the goddess of the moon too - except it looked weird so I cut it for this :(#did you know that thedas has two moons? no one else does either lmao#fuck i hate drawing wolves#my art <3#evanuris#mythal#elgar'nan#fen'harel#dragon age#dragon age fanart

If I start posting about re6 and say some wild shit about Piers know it's because there's a guinea pig at work that vaguely has his hair cut and game Piers left such a small impact on my brain I can no longer differentiate what is canon and is quirky behavior I've caught this pig doing
#listen no hate to piers but I was underwhelmed#this guinea pig ive randomly assigned the identity piers is just a little star and thats hard to compete with

Jamie and Roy spending ridiculous amounts of time together and Phoebe knowing about it definitely means that Jamie’s around Phoebe a lot more in the off-season when she’s off school and Roy’s off work but still being Jamie’s personal trainer for free (and she definitely likes bossing Jamie around just as much as Roy does and finds the ridiculous shit Roy makes him do hilarious)
And you know that thing where kids love to randomly go watch this, I can do a somersault or want to see me do a cartwheel? and then you just have to awkwardly stand there and be like wow whether they actually can do them or not (and sometimes several times in a row have to try to think of something new to say the fifth time they do the exact same thing and then look to you for a reaction)
I’m just saying at some point they’re in some park and Phoebe definitely pulls a look how good I’m getting at cart wheels, Uncle Roy! around Jamie at some point and while Roy just stands there like 🧍♂️ and gives compliments that gradually get more and more deadpan and debates turning it into saying how much more impressive that is than anything Jamie’s done all morning but he doesn’t because he’s 90% sure that would just lead to Jamie getting all indignant and competitive and proving he can cartwheel too as if Roy isn’t already annoyingly aware of that from when he was dying trying to keep up with Jamie in Amsterdam while he was cartwheeling and practically skipping
But obviously Roy not saying anything doesn’t matter anyway and Jamie turns it into being like watch this to Phoebe and cartwheeling too and turning to Roy after like well go on, tell me how good I am at that too
Roy deadpans somehow it’s far less impressive watching a grown man cartwheel for attention. It’s just sad, really
But Jamie isn’t offended at all and just shoots Roy an obnoxious smirk and insists you’re just saying that because you know you couldn’t do one. Even trying would probably end with you needing a hip replacement or something
But before Roy can even properly argue or say something bitchy back, Jamie’s turning back to Phoebe with a how about this then? But even though it’s her he asks, it’s Roy he looks to the moment he finishes running a few steps and doing a one-handed cartwheel
And Jamie’s like well now are you impressed??? And god, Roy resents that he is and he could make a dig about how useless of a skill it was as an adult and how that wouldn’t accomplish anything on the pitch and he’d just look like one of the kids that picks flowers on the pitch instead of playing or even paying attention to where the ball is, but instead he rolls his eyes and says yeah okay
And Jamie beams but he doesn’t have time to properly gloat and give Roy shit because Phoebe’s already bossing him around telling him that he has to teach her how to do that too
#I’ve been debating putting this in one of my fics for months and still may#Meanwhile if Keeley saw Jamie cartwheel for attention and praise she’d be like I never know what to do when a grown man does a cartwheel in#front of me…#Keeley would be underwhelmed watching Jamie do a cartwheel but also 100% would attempt one and join in if Phoebe asked her to#Phoebe definitely got into football because of Roy#But I could also see her getting into gymnastics too because of Jamie indulging her and being just as eager to do the same little kid tricks#And then she sees someone else on the team do a flip showing off and them all arguing over whether they could do a flip too if they tried#And attempting with various results and she’s like well I want to be able to do a flip too and talks her mom#into signing her up for gymnastics and then talks Jamie’s ear off about her gymnastics class and the little kid tea from it because he’s#sure to match her energy and buy into it like he always does#Roy Kent#Jamie Tartt#Phoebe O’Sullivan#Ted Lasso#RoyJamie#Mine#I don’t have the energy or brainpower to reread this as usual so enjoy the typos and whatever autocorrect changes things too 😂

i tried so hard to fight it but im just actually so disappointed with veilguard.
as a video game, its fine! the gameplay is fun and it’s visually stunning. but as a dragon age game it’s… not good. even if we somehow ignore all the massive world breaking lore inconsistencies, it’s supposed to be a story heavy RPG. but it’s so shallow, so surface level. there are so many issues with so many of the decisions the devs or ea or whoever made leading to the final state of this game and it’s actually so sad.
I feel like im grieving what could’ve been, making new saves in hopes it’ll somehow be better this time around, and it just isn’t.
#dragon age critical#veilguard critical#dragon age#spoilers#dragon age spoilers#the more i think about it the more i realize how much is wrong#even little things like why lyrium is red#or like why is neve/bellara just fine after being completely blighted?#why do we get a little -blighted- status effect that means absolutely nothing?#why are all the factions sterilized#why can’t I be an asshole? why do all my choices end up coming out kind of snarky goofy like they chose my personality for me?#why can’t I even be a properly SERIOUS or stoic char like#I know it’s not an open world but it actually feels like it too. there are other way better games that are closed world but it doesn’t FEEL#closed world#only arlathan felt open. every other location was so underwhelming#idk it’s so sad bc i’ve been waiting so long and I rlly tried to give it a chance but it’s just so disappointing#idk there’s too many things to even list here#im just sad :/ and I think im done playing#da:tv

I truly feel like Lapis's backstory wasnt fully explored in the series
Specially with how mysterious and how much of a big deal she seemed at her introduction
Her backstory basically just being that she was on the wrong place at the wrong time... makes me wonder what was she even doing there and why.
Her distrust of the crystal gems?
The fact pearl never noticed the mirror "didnt work"?
Honestly just pearl in general! Her keeping the mirror, knowing a gem was in there. Did she keep it that way cause its a homeworld gem? She says it isnt supposed to talk its supposed to only follow orders.
AND THE MIRROR IN GENERAL LIKE pearl talks about it like she's seen it before? What is that story
#i remember feeling a little underwhelmed when i first watched same old world (where we see her backstory)#maybe its cause i was like 12 bur i thought wait thats it thats all youre gonna give us.#mirror gem and ocean gem are such incredible episodes but it kinda feels like the series doesnt really#follow with what that episode was trying to set up#it still feels like theres something missing#but hey. it cohld be just me#lapis lazuli#su#su posting

Another little inconsequential red hood thing and I'll admit that I'm decently biased but it irks me to see the whole "Jason can't shut up about his death/he makes his death everyone else's problem" take really frequently because he simply does not do that enough for it to be a thing in like any actual Red Hood story.
It's a thing you see sometimes in modern annuals/comics with large casts, particularly if a writer doesn't seem super confident with writing all of the characters that they're working with or if he's just a background character in this one, because with comics it's quicker to reduce a character to recognizable landmarks than to try and work out a whole new complex voice if you don't really need to, so it's tire iron, Jane Austen, Joker, and death, and it's all written out in dialogue because every character in a group event can't have their own internal monologue, but like. That's pretty much it. UTRH is the establishing event for Jason Todd post death so of course a lot of it is about his death, although it's arguably about the lack of response to his death more than his death itself, and he certainly makes it Bruce's issue but one beef doesn't make a trend. Plus if his death is anyone's issue beyond his own Bruce and Joker are like the number one guys whose issue it is. He THINKS about his death a ton in Lost Days, but it doesn't really reflect externally on any of his interactions besides with Joker, which again, that's justified and relevant beef. Teen Titans 29 is more about his place in the hero community/feeling like he was an outsider even before the bomb/Tim being the new robin than about his death, and side note, that being counted as an attempt on Tim's life also bugs me. He beat him up and then left of his own volition. That's not an assassination attempt its called a fight, albeit a sneaky and unfair one. But anyways. I can't speak on Battle for the Cowl because i haven't read it, both that and Batman and Robin 2009 don't really compel me, but it's entirely possible that's an outlier to my point seeing as I kinda sorta haven't read it and don't care to lmao. Even New 52 (although HIGHLY unpopular) and Rebirth/Dawn of DC/Whatever we're doing now Red Hood content don't really have him talking to people about it besides the occasional little quips. He might make stances that were developed because of his death other people's problem, like in the Mia Dearden Green Arrow situation with the "getting involved in other people's business" issue, but acting like he makes specifically his death everyone else's problem is ignoring all of the perfectly valid actually canon things he makes other people's problem. Most of the unpleasant traits he brings to the table are a result of his death and the sense of abandonment and betrayal that came with it, but that doesn't mean he's bringing his death into it when he acts unpleasantly any more than he's bringing his birth into it when he shows up in the first place. The consequences do not equal the event. All this to say it's irritating when people say the character is grating because he doesn't stop whining about his death when that kinda just indicates to me that they're working off fanon based on fanon based on kinda mid batman annual.
#i'm probs going to take a break from jasonposting for a while because it kinda seems like im beating a dead horse lmao#anyone else reading dawn of dc green arrow? because i find it delightful#maybe ill start oliverposting did you ever think of that?#they're kinda pushing amanda waller REALLY hard like she is in EVERYTHING rn but whatever it's not messing it up too bad for me#i like the art style and also seeing roy in his silly little outfit with his silly little hairstyle#i should really get into nightwing more#i'm fairly into modern damian content i'd say#LOVING the new boy wonder issue one can't wait for june 4#jason todd#red hood#dc comics#on the topic of writing large casts of characters well#i don't like to publicly speak bad of specific writers and artists as a whole unless they've actually done something real life bad#because my expectations and how much they were or were not met is my own business#but i am not fond of how tom king writes large groups#i haven't forgotten that alternate universe thing tom. it was not good tom#i remember the heroes in crisis confessions and i found them underwhelming at best

Warning, SPOILERS for the Ending of Episode 4
Ok so i might be a little nit picky here but am I the only one who wished for Hunter to had been a tad bit more emotional? Like we saw this man on the edge of his sanity and all we got was a "hey kid" and a hug. Don't get me wrong, Hunter finally hugged Omega but if you compare Wreckers hug to Hunters hug it kinda falls flat. Like wrecker cried and did the little "readjust and deepen the hug" thing while Hunter just like hug. Dunno I had wished for something more after he had tears in his eyes at the end of season two, didn't see the kid he considered his daughter for month and was shown to clearly was obsessed with finding her. I know Hunter isn't the most emotional but come on
#the bad batch#the bad batch spoilers#tbb spoilers#tbb season 3 spoilers#The bad batch spoilers#bad batch season 3#tbb hunter#Eyes rambles#Like it was a bit underwhelming#I really hoped for him to like wipe her tears away or something#Tear a little up himself#Sir what did wrecker do prior to get you so calm

This might not be the right word but I think the fandom got a little entitled with the whole "two years of updates" thing. Also I don't get why people seem to think the game will just... die after they're done.
#splatoon confessions#that's...not really why people are upset#its cause everything we've gotten is kinda subpar or underwhelming#i mean we're almost two years in and we have less weapons than splatoon 2 did at this time we don't even have all the second kits yet#they could have done so much and kinda gave so little

#she hung the moon in the sky...(also committed lots of war crimes)#dai concept art mythal u are superior in all ways - such an underwhelming visual design.#Spirit of 'Benevolence' more like Spirit of 'Basic-ness'#the real reason the Evanuris killed Mythal was because she was killing their aesthetic with the basic look datv gave her#her two little foci revolve around her head like the moon...moons...of Thedas#her codex entry/dalish legend only mentions one moon...so where did the other one come from in dalish legend? Since she made it?#are there dalish clans who argue about the two moons?

My hot jojo take is that Kira’s matured Kosaku look was WAY cooler than his original look
#jjba#every time i see people posting kira but as kira get a little bit underwhelmed#then again I think a lot of that is because his pose at the beginning of great days has the most sauce out of any pose in the show imo
