something. about. the horror of being sent on an impossible (death) quest and obligations and hospitality politics. the trauma of not having a home, and then the trauma of being in a house that becomes actively hostile to you, one that would swallow you whole and spit out your bones if you step out of line. all of this is conditional, your existence continues to be something men want gone.

it's about going back as far as I can with the perseus narrative because there's always a version of a myth that exists behind the one that survives. the missing pieces are clearly defined, but the oldest recorded version of it isn't there! and there's probably something older before that!! but it's doomed to forever be an unfilled space, clearly defined by an outline of something that was there and continues to be there in it's absence.

and love. it's also about love. even when you had nothing, you had love.

on the opposite side of the spectrum, this is Not About Ovid Or Roman-Renaissance Reception, Depictions And Discourses On The Perseus Narrative.

edit: to add to the above, while it's not about Ovid, because I'm specifically trying to peel things back to the oldest version of this story, Ovid is fine. alterations on the Perseus myth that give more attention Medusa predate Ovid by several centuries. this comic is also not about those, either! there are many versions of this story from the ancient world. there is not one singular True or Better version, they're all saying something.

I don't know how everyone isn't also always constantly thinking about how burial rites seem to be potentially one of the few things Siffrin instinctively remembers about their culture. But rest assured. I am in fact always thinking about it.

Textless version where they're just hanging out. It's fine!

I don't want to see any images of Sieg Heils-- or any other revolting images like that.

This is what I think we should be seeing on our dashes instead. This is what I want to see when I open this app. This is the image I think tumblr should be flooded with right now.

Especially as we have new folks coming from other platforms.

What about you? Do you want to see Sieg Heils or do you want to see someone angrily ripping a swastika flag in half?

have you seen the new nightwear groovy? alas, the dream of the animal onesies or the pillow fight groovy are dashed 😞 - i have yet to see the card's story but i assume that yuu is interviewing the boys again this year like the birthday boy cards cause there's no other characters in the card (?)

I too am disappointed that we didn't get a big full-on pillow fight. 😔 but he DOES battle by throwing his pillow, so at least we get some cushion action in there!

it looks like this round of birthday cards aren't going to be interviews/conversations, at least not for most of it -- the first part was Jamil talking to Ortho (who he duos with) about what his dormmates are doing for his birthday (they're setting up a surprise party/parade (because Kalim) but they're doing an extremely bad job of it and he's having to go around making sure that they don't screw it up) (being Jamil is suffering). second part was Jamil talking to his (unvoiced mob) roommate and answering Crowley's School Improvement Survey (he wants bigger bathrooms) (also a fridge in his room) (actually, make that a whole kitchen) (but mostly bigger bathrooms). then third part was his ~morning routine~, aka talking to himself about his hair and makeup, as one does in a visual novel. it's less cohesive than the previous birthday stories, but it's all pretty chill and there's some fun stuff in there! (Najma sent him hair stuff for his birthday that's way too fancy and he can't decide if she did it to annoy him or not. truly, being Jamil is indeed suffering.)

if all the cards are going to be about nightly/morning routine though, we're going to absolutely melt when we get to Vil, brace yourselves

media club plus has made me start tiptoeing into friends at the table, and I'm starting at possibly the weirdest entry point but that doesn't MATTER because it means i got to hear the following, in a gundam mini-game...

Jack, happily, conversationally, after confirming their character has a trait that lets them know weak points in machines: Hey, Austin?

Austin: Yeah?

Jack, about to commit a minor war crime: You want to know what the weak point of a mech is?

Austin: Yeah, what's the weak point of a mech?

Jack: The fucking pilot.

summary:

Logically, Agatha knows that it’s not aliens or some other form of extraterrestrial or paranormal phenomena. It’s all conspiracy. Fabricated. Something to make those nerds who bum in their parents’ basement feel some semblance of of control in their lives. It’s not real. And yet. There is something very real out here in the middle of fucking nowhere, Oregon, that is killing these girls. That has the M.O. of leaving marks identical to these. Not to mention whatever the hell happened earlier in the car, where they lost almost ten whole minutes, yet it passed quite literally at the blink of an eye.

Second, Detailed Reference Sheet for Bendy: 1925

(Image ID: A three-point turnaround for Bendy, as well as some of his more extreme, off-model expressions on the top right. Bendy’s au design has close-set eyes, a sharp, wide smile, a tail, and cloven feet with white spats over them. The extreme expressions on the top are Bendy’s face scrunched up seriously as he salutes, him wincing and laughing with his forked tongue flicking out, and him in utter shock with his jaw dropped. The text on the top left says “BENDY: Tombstone Picnic”. There’s text under it, but it’s mostly illegible. However, it seems to be greyer than everything else, and corrupting the image. End ID)

A small influx of new creatives joined Joey Drew Studios around 1925, which prompted Henry Stein to make a more in-detail reference sheet for others to Use. Us e
