I Saw Transformers One Early Last Week. Let’s Talk About It!!! (SPOILER FREE)
EXPECTATIONS
I’m going to be honest, I had very very low expectations for this movie for a multitude of reasons. The first was the cast, particularly choosing celebrity hires instead of professional voice actors for a franchise where dialogue delivery means SO MUCH historically and the present. I like Chris Hemsworth, I do, but I am so attached to Orion Pax that I did NOT see him as someone fit for the role. I was also afraid of it becoming a WFC situation where the VA tries TOO HARD to be Peter Cullen. I am also a huge fan of Elita One, and Scarlett Johansson was not my first choice by any means. The one thing giving me hope was the fact that Scarlett and Chris interact SO WELL in their films together and in press releases and they do give off that Orion and Elita energy sometimes. Regardless, I was skeptical.
Now for the big thing: I was very nervous how they were going to handle the politics and the buildup that leads to Megatronus and Orion’s separation. It is no secret that Pre-War Cybertron in many continuities begins with a very corrupt and fascist Senate. Corrupted Senators, capitalistic manipulation and unethical abuse, dehumanization, corporal punishment, you name it, Cybertron had it. The concepts of functionalism, shadowplay, mnemosurgery, and empurata also come to mind. It is also no secret that the United States is on the brink of total fascism. A lot of Pre-War Cybertron’s themes, particularly the Decepticon cause in its early days as a movement, emphasized the elimination of the oppressive regime and reconstruction with an end to the very infrastructure that caused class division and brutalization of Cybertronian bodies. Not only this, but Megatronus and Orion’s schism often comes because of class, particularly privilege and lack thereof, which is something that often happens in revolution. Those with more privilege often think that reform can happen underneath the system that looms over them, just with a switching of a guard and elimination of a few policies. They are often ones who partook in and benefitted from the system by birth or for the sake of survival. Those who come from the lower classes want to burn the entire system down, understanding in its entirety that its very infrastructure is unstable and is not sustainable, no matter who is in power. Examples of this divide despite deep friendship and similar ideas is Andres Bonifacio and Jose Rizal of the Philippines (as a Filipino). Orion, in most cases coming from a privileged background, saw hope in simple reform after extracting the corrupt portions of the federal structure. Megatronus, who fought his whole life to be deemed as sentient, understood that the entire system was diseased and could not go on. It would just eventually continue its horrid practices. I can go on a tangent about this, as someone who studies and writes on anti-colonialism, but that’s another post for another day. My concern based on the trailers was that it would address NONE of that and there would be some watered down conflict that removed the nuances and political passion behind a lot of other continuities. The trailers, to me, were not giving me enough proof that it would be handled correctly.
Initial Experience
My theater was filled with mostly adults of various ages who were fans of different continuities. Some people were even talking about how they thought the movie was going to suck, including me with my dad, who has been a fan since G1 in the 80s and was going in blind. However, throughout the entire film, the whole theater was laughing, gasping, cheering, clapping, and screaming. Afterwards, there were people who were literally talking about how it was the movie they’d been waiting for after years of disappointment. Someone literally shouted when leaving the theater that he was so excited for September when everyone else could see it. My dad, who has not been a fan of recent Transformers material, talked nonstop about how much he loved it. Me personally, I was BRIMMING with excitement afterwards, which is huge given that I was ready to criticize the movie’s every move. Let me get into why- note this is SPOILER FREE.
Orion Pax
Believe it or not, I really liked TF1’s Orion. He was witty, had the snark of Aligned Orion, and clearly had a goal in mind: to entirely shift the status quo by breaking the class distinction. He was extremely optimistic like most versions, something that is often criticized in the fanbase, and is also criticized in the film. However, the qualities that G1 created and the Bayverse destroyed were THERE. Orion was a DORK. He was KIND. He CARED for people deeply, even if they weren’t necessarily thinking about him. He was a KNOWN PROBLEM-SOLVER. His intelligence is noted MULTIPLE times. He really is authentically Orion. I’ll do a more in-depth analysis in September.
Megatronus/ D-16
Now, THIS MAN WAS AMAZING. I am so used to the source of his anger being solely lower class-based oppression amongst other things relating to that. The film offered another option, which I will not disclose, but I thought it was a wonderful addition. I will keep my mouth shut about D-16’s personality in this film because it’s a secret, but just know this new take on Megatronus was a bit refreshing and gives new material for both fan continuity writers and fanfic writers.
Elita
I was honestly scared to see how they would portray Elita, especially with their track record of solely making her Optimus’s love interest and killing her off. I also was afraid that they would turn her into a white feminism caricature, which I can go into depth about for clarification if anyone needs it. However, the writers take feminism for Elita and take a much more in-depth route. I found her well done. She was giving mother in this film, absolutely brilliant. There will be an analysis on her as well in September, especially since they have so much intended room for her.
Worldbuilding and Additional Characters
I think that with about an hour and a half, it would have been SO HARD to create an entire world of deep political brutality and nuance like the comics directly. So, I think the writers created a framework that was good enough to convey the fascist undertones of Cybertron while also leaving so many avenues to explore and elaborate on for future films, whether they be prequels or sequels. Some characters were added in with a bit of context, but no in-depth explanations. While I would normally say that’s a downside, I think that it was actually really smart on their part. If you tried to add all of these complex stories from the comics in an hour and a half film combined with everything else, it would have likely been underdeveloped and left more questions and holes than answers. By removing that, I think that it was a smart move to expand on in their own time and with good pacing. Besides, the presence of some characters was very enjoyable and kept the audience I was with wanting more from them. Not in a “there wasn’t enough of them” way at all, but instead a “they were so cool in the short time they were here I need more now” way. Everyone in this continuity gets a new and different start. I honestly think it would give fan continuity writers motivation to continue what they’re doing, now that basic and consistent pre-war plot lines have been redone. I think for how long the movie is, they did a great job.
Additional Thoughts
I think that everything was pretty well done. The pacing was especially important, given we were supposed to witness a buildup in such a devastating “divorce”. That isn’t done lightly, and they made sure that they built it up enough to where the final blow was devastating. It was SO DEVASTATING that people in my theater were gasping left and right. The comedy was well done, as someone who hates poorly-written jokes for laughs. It fit into the characters’ personalities well, that’s what made it work well. It didn’t feel forced because that’s just how that particular character is. I also think that, as a fandom, sometimes we get too wrapped up in very specific characterizations of these individuals to the point where we refuse new ideas. I was extremely guilty of this. However, this film was truly made by someone that loved the franchise and knew exactly what the fans wanted. Brian Tyler, who did the score for TFP, also doing the score for this film was proof of that (as someone who absolutely ADORES film scores as a musician) There was a good amount of brutality within the rating of the film, so bayverse fans who are itching for something shockingly horrible are in for a surprise. I also think that it knew its boundaries well and moved not to push them while also being considerate of certain audiences who may be a bit younger. It was a good restart, especially for animated Transformers films, and I think that they can really build it into something great. This was a very sound foundation and I was not disappointed.
ALSO, THERE IS A MID AND POST-CREDIT SCENE SO DON’T LEAVE IMMEDIATELY

SPARK
this is. about the dialogue between Bonifacio and Rizal, the impact that one had on the other, the way Rizal's novels could spark desire for freedom like a wildfire that will not be tamed. there's an element of 'I would have gone through life half asleep if I never met you,' to it. the linked tragedies, the characters from the novels themselves seem to echo forward onto Bonifacio and Rizal in their own way as well.
Rizal and the Revolution, Floro Quibuyen
The First Filipino, Leon Ma. Guerrero
Closet Queeries, J. Neil C. Garcia
additionally! the illustrated panel of Ibarra and Elias! it's a combination of a few things; them in Noli, but it's combining the character trajectory Ibarra/Simoun has gone on with El Filibusterismo (hence. the flames. dude said I came here to burn shit to the ground, and damn, it was a speech.) like. do you see the similarities between Bonifacio and Rizal in this because I cannot stop thinking about it.
Introduction to Ma. Soledad Lacson-Locsin's translation of Jose Rizal's El Filibusterismo
🍊 twitter 🍊 pixiv 🍊 bsky
#komiks tag#andres bonifacio#jose rizal#art tag#colonial era ph#philippine history#SCREAMING these citations are as long as the comic itself#also a bonus. bit of visual commentary. the red/white of the last panel is supposed to be a call forward to the katipunan flag (red/white)#colors. its that recognition of self through the other baby!! (its an orange-ish red but thats bc the actual red did Not look good against#the other colors i had. RIP)

elibarra comic with 19k likes on twitter LETS GOO ELIBARRA NATION!!! this just reactivated something dormant in my brain
you guys dont get how important elibarra is to me personally. filipino has consistently been my lowest subject since elementary and i rarely ever spoke tagalog (typical 'englishera' lol got teased for it relentlessly). you know what sparked my love for the language??? fucking elibarra . OF ALL THINGS .
i got so invested in them that i started to seriously learn and speak my native tongue because i wanted to fully analyze their interactions. i wanted to have enough knowledge to be able to compare the filipino texts to their english translations, to see if there was any nuance lost (or gained) in their conversations with each other. i hunted down every translation i could find of the boat scene and when i found the one that translated one of the lines to "because you are not made to suffer" i went batshit insane. i had all of their scenes together (and all of the elias scenes bc i love him) fully tabbed and annotated, highlights and side comments and everything. read my first fic written in tagalog because i desperately needed more of them.
got my highest grade in filipino in grade 9 and have since gotten better at speaking the language both formally and casually. from there, i learned to love the overall history and culture because it stopped feeling like a chore. because thats what elias wouldve wanted for me!!!
tldr doomed yaoi so good it sparked a personal revolution within me
now we wait for the annual boost in popularity whenever the grade 9/10s reach their 3rd and 4th quarter. noli me tangere is an incredible book you guys!! if focusing on elibarra is what it takes for yall to lock tf in and really get into it (like i did) then do it! you'll eventually learn to appreciate what jose rizal had to say in the story (and that he really Really loves elias LMAO)
#elibarra#noli me tangere#el filibusterismo#el noli#al shpeals#my fujoisms literally saved my grade#i cant even be embarrassed about it im still proud of the assignments i made for el noli#this is also for my classmate S who was the only other person that was as invested in them as i was#i miss you S wherever you are !!! ELIBARRA LAYAG FOREVERRRR

Big brain moment, Lintik by brownman revival with Filo!Iwaizumi 😭 I think papuntang Benilde to si Iwa WHAHSHAHSHD I love the idea of La Sallean Iwa
"Lintik na pagibig"
— Iwaizumi 2024
(For non-filos, lintik means lightning, and pag-ibig means love, so literally the translation would be lightning love, but lintik is also used as an exclamation)
Love takes many forms. Sometimes it's a slow burn, gently eating at your heart and soul. Or maybe it can come naturally, you see it coming and it just happens. But Iwaizumi didn't expect you to come into his life like lightning.
It was electrifying. Seeing your soft smile sent shocks straight into his heart. But lightning, by nature's design, left as fast as it came. Maybe it was fate, meeting for a brief period. After all, lightning leaves traces. One strike could start a fire that consumes a whole forest.
That's exactly what you did to him, and he's not just gonna let you go so easily.
OOOOOOOOOIIIIIII!!!!! PINOY!!!!!!! 🇵🇭 ❤️💥🔥 PINOOOOOOOOOYYYY!!!!! 🇵🇭❤️💥❤️🔥🔥 PINOYYYYY 💥💥🔥❤️OIYYYYYY!!!!!! 🇵🇭❤️❤️❤️❤️💥🔥💥🇵🇭🇵🇭💥💥 PILIPINAAAAASSSS!!!!! ❤️🔥🇵🇭💥💥💥 PINOOOOOOYYYY PRIIIIIDEEEE!!!!!!❤️🔥🇵🇭🔥💥🇵🇭❤️🔥❤️💥❤️ LAABAAAAAAN PILIPINAAAAASSSS!!!! ❤️🇵🇭❤️🔥🔥💥❤️🔥💥 AMIINNNN ANG WEST PHILIPPINE SEA!!!!!! 🇵🇭❤️🔥❤️KWEK-KWEK💥❤️FISHBALL💥❤️ISAW💥❤️🔥KARE-KARE❤️🔥💥 SUMAN 🇵🇭LECHON 🇵🇭SINIGANG 🇵🇭 ADOBO 🇵🇭BULALO 🇵🇭 TORTANG TALONG 🇵🇭 TINOLA 🇵🇭 BICOL EXPRESS 🇵🇭 TURON 🇵🇭 KARE KARE 🇵🇭 DAING 🇵🇭RED HORSE🇵🇭 EMPERADOR🇵🇭 TANDUAY🇵🇭 GINEBRA 🇵🇭 SAN MIGUEL🇵🇭❤️🔥 BARONG TAGALOG 🔥💥🇵🇭 RIZAL 💥❤️🔥BONIFACIO🇵🇭🔥 LAPU LAPU 🇵🇭 JUAN LUNA💥🔥 MANNY PACQUIAO!! 🔥💥🇵🇭🥊❤️🔥 PILIPINS NUMBAWAN 1️⃣❤️🔥🇵🇭💥

Until Then OST is now on Bandcamp and Youtube!🎶
Bandcamp: bit.ly/UntilThenOST... YouTube: bit.ly/UntilThenOST...
Disclaimer: the caption is is not an official title! Just thought it was something from the game that made me what making this image made me feel : ]
Besides my deteriorating laptop not able to handle the size of this file (crashing 15+ times) I wanted to share the process since semickolon (Mickole Nulud) wanted me to! [UNTIL THEN SPOILERS]🛑
I really wanted to play on the themes of moving on and self-delusion. In Act 1 The Ruling is the constant looming force despite never being talked about by Mark, and yet it drives everything forward nonetheless. And I guess, you know the rest if you played!
I was also inspired by twilight sunsets while riding through Mahabang Parang Angono (sadly, I have no pictures), since a lot of the topography in the game is hilly and mountain-adjacent like Rizal itself (& because the skyline there is sooo beautiful and unmatched, you can see all the way to Metro Manila!)

Fictional Stories:From Noli me Tanghere
NARCISISA (SISA)
Reverse Isekai, GN! Reader but you're in a skirt. Angst and fluff and a drizzle of crack, Warnings for Screaming, child loss, loss of Sanity
This is based on our project last year lol this has been rotting in my drafts
"Oh Geez! why would they Volonteer me to represent the class!!" You huffed as you went inside one of the apartments in your family's rental place to use as a dorm. "Are you alright your grace?" Asked Kaveh leaning on the couch with a Sketchbook. "No. Not really...Given the fact that I have to perform on stage in...a week max?" Pinching the bridge of your nose while pacing. "What exactly are you performing your holiness?" Asked Zhongli placing a tray of newly brewed tea on the coffee table. You passed him a Convenient English Version of Jose Rizal's work: Noli me Tanghere
"Page 58 that's the character..." You pointed dropping your self on the couch next to Kaveh. Xingqiu saw the book and flipped to said page "Sisa? What's her character?"
"So bassicaly she's a woman driven crazy because of her husband's abuse and the loss of her 2 sons because of the corrupt church"you stated directly at the book thinking If you missed anything. They looks the right amount of concerned.
"Now if you'll excuse me, I have to dig through my closet because it's in 2 days" you stood up rushing to your room.
Once again, you're on the couch with the ladies: Yun Jin, Nilou, and Ayaka. "I just need a twist... something that will make people react, " you whispered to yourself. The others looked very much concerned for your well-being. The competition was tomorrow, and it was very nerve racking, no one dared to cut you from your concentration.
You almost started jumping in joy when an idea hit you. Looking up songs upon songs and making a little to then sing "ok...Im ready!" You said to yourself. Ayaka softly patted your back with a gentle smile. You can relax just a bit.
The day of the competition arrived, and you managed to slip the genshin cast into school pretending that they were cosplaying. You were pacing around back stage calming down your nerves with Yun Jin making sure you look alright.
"Representing Section Juan Luna!..." The teacher called out as the lights dimmed and you walked on stage singing a small tune
Thats when you got your class to do it to scream insults at you as you're performing. "Baliw! Baliw!" Crazy! Crazy! they all kept screaming thats when you started to shout back "Baliw!? Di ako Baliw! Nakikita mo ba ilaw sa Kampanaryo! Anak ko yon! Si Crispin! Nagpapadausdos sa Lubid! Crispin! Basilio! Anak ko! " Crazy!? Im not Crazy! Cant you see the light in the steeple! Those are my children! Crispin! Pulling the rope! Crispin! Basilio! My children!
You started sobbing uncontrollably acting as if you actually gone crazy as the music drops. Then the light dimmed ending your performance. A loud round of applause rang in the gymnasium. You stood up and bowed.
After you got off the stage you went over to the genshin cast they were cheering you on. Now all you had to do was sit and watch the rest of the performances.
"Now it is time to announce the winners!" The vice president of the Pandayan Filipino Club said. It finally arrived to announce your grade's winners
"Remember Your Grace, No matter if you win or lose" Zhongli said.
"For the grand champion! And the best performance for Sisa! Goes to..." You felt your body go stiff, you were holding onto Kaveh for support. "SECTION JUAN LUNA!" Both the announcers said. You accidentally pushed eachother when you heard you won.
You quickly made your way up the stage to get the Trophy and Medal and bowed. All is well and hard work payed off

no because imagine late night nights rambles with Hobie. I will actually keep that man up at night asking him questions like “why’s is the sky blue?” “Who was Jack the Ripper?” listen my brain works best a night right before sleep
- 💗
It's literally 1am here and my brain is in overdrive even without sugar so I understand what u mean
Imagine you're laying in bed with Hobie, his arm cradling under your head while his other hand is splayed over your stomach comfortably, his warmth a welcome feeling through the cold air. You embrace him closer as you ramble on, his eyes start to grow heavy but he fights it because he still wants to listen to your voice, especially after a long day without you.
"So there's a theory where Jose Rizal was Jack the ripper" you continue your tangent.
"mm-hmm"
"like there's some evidence but it's still far fetched" you raise your head to see his eyes open halfway. He gives you a small smile, telling you he's still listening even though his body protests. "But what if though! Think about it"
Also also, you asking him "will you love me if I was a worm?"
"I'd eat you" he doesn't miss a beat.
"bro 😑"

alright so can i ask another part on my old request which was genius reader x Nikola and the scientist/male reader who is basically William James Sidis.
so like what if male reader never turn his back on science and knowledge and just did it in secret without Nikola and the other scientist knowing
(this was after they knew male reader was smart if not more smarter then them:
it happened when one of them said "if only there where other geniuses we knew…that can help us with this"
because they're having trouble with both a invention and mathematical problem and male reader heard this and said "more geniuses? i know people that might help!"the other scientist looked at male reader confused, because they thought, they where the only geniuses he knew,
so male reader led them to his laboratory/research area which they never knew and when they asked him why he didn't tell them about this, male reader hit them with the classic "because you didn't ask!"
the door looked like a big clock which made the other scientists confused on how they didn't see this! so when the hand hit 12 the clock door opened
the inside was a large steampunk looking laboratory with thousands of books reaching the ceilings making it look like a library, paper scattered the floor, inventions left and right
and having two floors! and having rooms like a chemistry room, craft room basically everything you need! basically a genius paradise!
as well as having a very large chalkboard ware Gottfried Leibniz and Goethe,Johann Wolfgang von was writing theories
on the side was leonardo da vinci painting a large mural on the side of the wall and Marilyn vos Savant was on the second floor and was talking with Ada Lovelace and Hypatia, Ettore Majorana was sitting down on one of the chairs reading a book and writing theories talking with charles darwin
and Mozart was playing the piano on a little stage to the side filling the room with a beautiful Melody
as well as Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson AND Andres Bonifacio as well as Jose Rizal himself taking to each other about they're respective revolution's and politics,
here's the list of everyone there!
the list:
1.) leonardo da vinci
iq:180-220
title:greatest inventor and painter of his time
2.) Goethe, Johann Wolfgang von
iq:210-225
title:A German poet, playwright, novelist, scientist, statesman, theatre director, and crit
3.) Marilyn vos Savant
iq:180-228
title:the smartest woman to have ever lived
4.) Gottfried Leibniz
iq:182-205
title:Russian Privy Councillor from Peter I as well as Privy Councillor at the Imperial Court in Vienna.
5.) Ettore Majorana
iq:183-200
title:the scientist who disappeared without a trace/the one who possibly discovered neutrons
6.) Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
iq:150-155
title: the greatest and most well known composer in history
7.) Alexander Hamilton
iq:120-160
title:secretary of the treasury and one of the founding fathers
8.) Benjamin Franklin
iq:130-160
title:the father/discoverer of lightning and one of the founding fathers
9.) jose Rizal
iq:150-160
title:Father of Filipino Nationalism/the one who started the Philippines revolution
10.) andres bonifacio
iq:100-140??(not sure)
title:the Father of the Philippine Revolution/The Great Plebeian, Supremo of the Katipunan
11.) Thomas Jefferson
iq:160-175
title:one of American Founding Father/the principal author of the Declaration of Independence
12.) charles darwin
iq:150-165
title:the father of evolution /the one who put light on human evolution
13.) Hypatia
iq:170–210
title:the greatest Neoplatonist philosopher, astronomer, and mathematician of her time
14.) Ada Lovelace!
iq:170-200
title:mother of computer/the one who revolutionized computer programmer
(you can search their names if you want to know more)
and turns out all of those geniuses and male reader are literally the bestest of friends! like all of them yelling theories and opinions left and right and basically teaching and helping each other so that they can understand there respective fields/talents.
and turns out reader and the 14 geniuses would often hang out in reader's laboratory/research area, almost everyday because of how frequently they use his lab/area.
and so how would the other scientist and Nikola react to seeing male reader being the best of friends with the most important and greatest minds in history and how would they would they feel about it?
-It had been a few weeks since you showed off your intelligence, fixing a problem that your friends, Nikola, Marie, Isaac, and Thomas had been tearing their hair out over.
-It was a slow process for you to open up, helping them out with more of their problems and questions, as past trauma made it a little scary for you.
-However, once you started, you remembered how fun it was for you, working with complex problems, asking all sorts of questions, and discovering new breakthroughs.
-Nikola patted you on your back, looking proud as he looked over the newest equation you had been working on with Isaac, “This is amazing Y/N!”
-You gave him a warm smile and Marie, who was nearby, finishing her own research, “How did you not go crazy while not doing this stuff? I get antsy after just a few hours if I don’t work on something.”
-You just grinned, offering them a break and you led them down a long hallway, “There were other things to keep my mind busy- not just science and questions. And I had some help with it.”
-They came to a stop in front of a large metal door, covered with intricate clockwork mechanisms and you knocked before opening the door and their eyes went wide.
-Before them were so many more geniuses, not just scientists, but geniuses in their own fields, like Mozart, who was playing on the piano, greeting you as you walked in as he paused, writing a few more notes on his sheet music.
-You passed by Charles Darwin, greeting him who paused to greet you, as did Ettore Majorana, before returning to their conversation.
-You stopped at a large wall, seeing Leonardo Da Vinci painting a massive but stunningly beautiful mural, “Looks good Leo- you’ve been working hard!”
-Leonardo looked down, seeing you and the new guests, “Ahh hello my friends! I’m glad you like it- it will be even better once I’ve finished everything!”
-Thomas was in awe, seeing more of histories’ geniuses, just relaxing and working around the room, like Gottfried Leibniz, Goethe, Marilyn Vos Savant, Ada Lovelace, and Hypatia to name a few, and soon you were by yourself, speaking with Leonardo, as your friends had rushed to talk with the others in the room.
-You couldn’t help but grin, shaking your head like you were exasperated, seeing everyone quickly getting hyper- all of them enjoying having new faces and fresh minds to have discussions with.
-Your friends were quick to discover that while you weren’t working on science, or at least the science they were used to- you kept your mind sharp with your fellow brilliant minds.
-You sank into a nearby chair, leaning your cheek on your fist, a smile on your face- things were going to be loud for a while- but you didn’t mind, seeing the others all so happy as well.

The Blushing Mermaid managed to reek to even higher levels of hells, it's old worn floorboards now soaked with redcap blood. Nasty buggers. Of all the places Rizal expected to bump into that hag Auntie Ethel again, it wasn't here, not by a long shot.
"You've defeated this loathsome witch before, eh?" Jaheira sounded impressed, compliments coming a bit easier now that she'd seen what such a team was capable of. She wiped off both her sabers on a bleeding little corpse. "Foul sort. But you handled such an ambush very well. I am seeing more and more that Halsin's tall tales about you were not so exaggerated."
"You flatter me, madame Harper," Rizal placed a claw over his heart and gave her a little bow, having picked up that the druid had a good sense of humor. "But unfortunately yes, we are... Quite familiar with this exact specimen."
"She's real awful, like, beyond normal hag shit," Karlach agreed from the other room, no doubt doing the same as them and cleaning off her mighty hammer. "Oh! Didn't that girl say she was headed here?"
"Mayrina?" Gale stepped over the threshold. He lifted his boot, using the edge of a floorboard to wipe off some viscera. "She did, didn't she? With that revenant husband of hers in tow. Oh, lords, and I just remembered she was pregnant as well," He exhaled through his teeth. "How much are we willing to bet they're in serious danger again?"
"Everything in my pocket," Karlach patted her pants for emphasis with a big grin. "I'm sure we can take a detour and look for some leads, yeah? A hag on the loose in this city seems like a real nightmare waiting to happen."
As Karlach rejoined the group, Gale approached Rizal. They spoke quietly to one another, a claw holding the wizard's face to study him for injuries, a hand lifting to fix the bard's hair. Still spattered with blood, they shared a tender kiss, warm and slow, standing amongst the steaming bodies of their foes. Rizal whispered something and Gale flushed before letting out a charming little giggle.
"... They do this after every fight?" Jaheira drawled.
"Every single one," Karlach nodded, fists on hips. She jerked her chin downstairs. "Hey, you wanna grab a quick pint? It's on me."
"... Eh, sure, why not."

[Y]our love and the one I profess for my country have melted into one... Could I forget you? [...] I called upon your name. I thought I could see you in the mist that rose from the depths of the valleys, I thought I could hear your voice in the whispering of the leaves, and when the folk songs the peasants sang as they returned from their work would reach me from afar, they only seemed to harmonize with my own interior voices, which sang for you and gave reality to my illusions and dreams. Sometimes I would lose myself on mountain paths, and night, which falls slowly there, would find me still wandering, searching for the trail among the pines, beech, and oak. Then, if the rays of the moon floated down through the openings in the thick canopy, I thought I could see you in the heart of the forest, like a vague, loving shadow, shimmering among the light and the darkness of the thicket. And if perchance I could distinguish the varying warbles of the nightingale, I thought it was because I could see you, and you were its muse. Did I think about you? The passion of my love for you not only brought life to their mists but color to their ice.
José Rizal, from "Noli Me Tangere" tr to English by Harold Augenbraum (First Published, 1887)

Filipino writers may be unto something here, as I am seeing similarities between Jose Rizal's characters and Lualhati Bautista's (especially Dekada 70)
Their characters are from a privileged or middle class background with happy families and sweet lovelives. They are well-accepted in society that was crumbling in the background. Slowly, the people around them are acting erratic or dying, as they try to keep everything together in their minds, hoping that things will return to normal tomorrow. They know something is wrong in their society, but they'd like to think they can be spared. Until, even the people of similar standing are being targeted. Nobody is safe. They realize they should have fought from the very beginning, but what can they do? They have a family/lover to protect. They are now backed in the corner and they can't do anything.
This feeling is quite fundamental in being a Filipino. Something is wrong, we can feel it. However, we want to delude ourselves that we are safe, and that our beautiful life can go on as normal.
Are you a Rizalian character?
By no means you have a main character vibe, but you are greatly affected by the movers of society and it's either you hate it or you blind yourself from it.
