rhaenyra outsourcing motherhood to rhaena and assigning her that passive feminine role was REALLY interesting….. rhaenyra as a character is at her most fascinating when she is forced to navigate and ultimately perpetuate the gendered structures she despises and wishes she could transcend— the seeds of her tragedy already sewn here. just great character work

#esp because in the books rhaena is painted as the sweet peaceful girly girl to baela’s gnc rebellion #but woah it’s cool that theyre both actually straining at it. wah #it’s also very targ women can only escape the bounds of the patriarchy when they have their dragons and even then they actually cant.#like thats an illusion of freedom for the most part ☹️#hotd #hotd spoilers #obviously rhaenyra doesnt really have much of a choice here but thats the point it’s a system #and to have any power at all you will have to crack under the desires of that system and the whims of your stupid misogynist vassals #thats the rosby stokeworth thing!!!! ITS HAPPENING!!!!!!#what would you sell to break your chain. who would you throw under your wheels #god rhaenyra is just a triumph of adaptation huh. theyre gonna hit that swing into selling her soul so hard

oh my fucking god

my friend just texted me after finishing watching Monte Cristo adaptations and asked me why man went so hard on revenge shit because it’s not like his time in prison was that bad and he had treasure on him why not just move on or do it other way

head in hands

see that’s what I mean by adaptations missing the key point of his imprisonment time

without knowing what happened in château d’if, without understanding how much of his life was destroyed here along with his psyche and morals, without understanding that he was so destroyed that by the time he met abbe faria, even faria himself high key was regretting teaching/telling dantes who screwed him over because at this point he helped to finalize monster in dantes, because if faria didn’t tell him that, dantes would’ve never even decided to have revenge because he didn’t had need/target for it

i just keep noticing that people who watch adaptations without reading source material always get confused on ‘why’ of his revenge because the start and result don’t weight the same for them and such people more than right to ask the question what stopped him from starting new life with treasures faria left him

dantes with his wealth honestly could’ve simply hired assassins or mercenaries to kill people he deems responsible for his demise and call it a day. but no, he wastes even more of his years for a revenge and even went overboard with it because it’s extremely personal for him in his broken unhinged mind. his broken psyche concluded that death would be too easy for them, they need to go through equal amounts of hell he went through. because his revenge is more psychological torture focused than physical one, he is a broken man who doesn’t understand he overstepped boundaries of equal revenge and only snaps out of it when his plans backfire on people uninvolved.

his hyperfixation on such hard to execute and too complex revenge is pretty much what is keeping what remains of his broken mind and morals intact, since he in his head (as well as narrative) justifies his actions and goals based on what he went trough in prison. because if abbe faria didn’t unintentionally given him a goal, a target of revenge, even if he proceeded to escape and find a treasure, he simply would’ve started his life anew.

so yea adaptations missing on fatalism and mindfuckery of his time in château d’if is what ruins them all. book really gives you time to savor the shit he went through here, starting from time passage, changing of his cells and how ‘life’ around goes up to his mood and behavior changes through years, from hopeful hysterical boy to depressed apathetic half corpse who ironically considered his jailers as some sort of friends he can talk to even if they don’t talk back to him anymore

#count of monte cristo #le comte de monte cristo #edmond dantes #when people ask me what adaptation to check I just tell them to read the book #honestly story would’ve worked better as a series I think #more time/episodes to savor his time in prison tbh #like 3-4 episodes dedicated simply to years of his existence here #even if adaptations show time in prison everything is so romanticized it’s baffling #he was kept in one of the most guarded and hardcore prisons the fuck even #he shouldn’t sit and sigh melancholically dressed somewhat appropriate #he should be a mess of grit and dirt and overgrown hair and nails dressed in rugs and chains #and just behaving like half corpse with occasional mood swings

everyone shut the fuck up!!!!!

and picture if you will. Gortash with a ball and chain. like this ⤵️

#just picturing him like. holding one. swinging it around. it’s uhhh. definitely doing something to me #i’m normal by the way.#anyway sorry the one from kill bill is the only one that’s the right shape it kept showing me flails.#obvi his would be bigger so much bigger. and with a big heavy chain. and it would be gold. and have a cooler shape #your daily dose of idiocy #gortash #enver gortash #kinda wishing i’d made his full name my tag for him but too late to go back now.

“1 John 4:16” by The Mountain Goats, also a Jinx and Vi song

#in the cell that holds my body back the door swings wide and I feel like someone’s lost child as the guards lead me outside #and if the clouds are gathering it’s just to point the way #to an afternoon I spent with you when it rained all day #and someone leads the beast in on his chain #but I know you’re thinking of me cause it’s just about to rain #so I won’t be afraid of anything ever again!!!!!!!!

Btw btw. Summoner heads out there. Consider

The Humble Opalite...........................

#summoner oc #moe used to have an opalite necklace as part of its design! to match mine i wear irl #but the thing about drawing a chara over and over again is eventually you break them down to their bare essentials.#moe's outfit is already so complex even just that one element causes the design to feel Too Messy #esp in where your eyes are supposed to be drawn. esp in how the necklace would dangle and swing around #the golden chain/halo is way more focal to moe's entire design philosophy and is a subtle thing that draws the eyes #but doesn't get in the way! even when wearing the robe/ESP w the bowtie!! which is tied loosely #like!!! i think i've done a good job at spacing it out and also making the chain non-intrusive #RAMBLING THOUGH. i did reuse the opalite esq design for its staff which reads like an orb #and may be one??? straight up??? either way i had opalites in mind when designing it #bc of the significance to me (epic stim object i've cherished for years) and the resemblance to orbs in game!#moe's design feels p set (save for like special occasions i guess LMFAO) so it would be cool!!!#to see if anyone else can make use of this!!!
