#THAT ' MONTROUS ' PART OF HER

[lunaetis]

▸▸ [ @minban ( scar ) || starter call. ]

─「エデン」─  the usually gloved digits were bare when they traced along the line of his scarred face, over the striking streak cascading through the piercing crimson hue of his right eye. the SCARS that made his namesake, now admired so ardently in close proximity which made her own heart jump a little. private, behind closed doors, their bare bodies pressed to one another, skin littered with marks of ownership. calloused fingers took hold of his, slowly guided it down the line of her throat, letting him trace the GOLDEN MARKS branching from the auric crack in the middle of her chest like roots from a tree, akin to lightning scar. she placed his clawed hand there, right upon the mark of stellaron that hummed slightly louder when came in contact to his frequency. was it calling ? beckoning ?

                " what do you hear ? " the cancer of all worlds locked underneath a living vessel. it pulsed strongly, the golden glow becoming brighter as though tempting for him to RIP IT OUT of its confine. to take the heart that allowed this CONTAINER to breathe and live like she was now. " is it calling for you ? " there was a hint of possessiveness laced in her voice. so subtle. almost unnoticeable. he's hers, hers, hers, not even the stellaron can have him.

Ram'tha Laran, my swtor OC!

This character is tied to @psychomusic 's oc and story! Check her out you won't regret it! She's slowly sharing her creations and they are very very well written and cool hehe

Profile: Ram'tha Laran, also known as Lord Loathe, is known among the sith for his montrous physical strength and for his mysterious character. Always calm, barely talking... he never managed to gain sympathy from his colleagues. Despite his appearance (which made him look cold to others), he met a few people he learned to open up to, and to whom he showed his true colours: shyness aside, when he isn't busy with work he likes to study bioanalysis and take care of his house. His soft personality always shock the people who get to know him, and it makes them question how did he get such a reputation among the sith.

Backstory - Part 1:

(sorry my english sucks)

Ram'tha was only six years old when a sith noticed him and decided to take him to Korriban. He showed a good ability with the Force, but since the departure from his homeplanet Iridonia, the sith quickly grew tired of the kid's innate calm and uninterest in proving himself worthy. Ram'tha only liked to touch and connect with the objects around him (he had a predisposition to psychometry), and barely communicated with the sith. After a couple of weeks the sith abandoned Ram'tha, leaving him to the dangers of Korriban. The quiet boy wandered without showing any fear, until Darth Thenn Gavir saw him. He thought the child's bravery was admirable and became interested in training him, so Thenn brought the kid home and introduced him to his wife and daughter, who was only 1 year older than Ram'tha. Thenn's wife, Sotiy, didn't want to raise him, but since she noticed his inner strength she gave a condition to Thenn to accept the child: he should have been raised and trained only to become their daughter Akiri's husband. That way, they ensured a life of success for their daughter who would have had constant protection in her rise to power in the empire. The husband accepted without telling Ram'tha.

He learned a lot in the years with the Gavir family, and even thought he never got along with Sotiy (who was very hard on him, almost treating him as a mere servant), he liked Thenn and Akiri. Thanks to Darth Thenn, he was able to pursue his new hobbies, such as learning about plants (and he will end up studying bioanalysis) and cooking. He liked to take care of the Gavir family and doing chores for them, since he felt very grateful for the help they gave him, and his relationship with Akiri grew deeper even without her parents to force it onto them.

At the age of 11 the two kids started visibly liking each other and so Sotiy decided it was the right moment to tell them about the pact. She was going to make them marry soon, because she didn't want them to become too old and strong to oppose. And, as expected, the naive kids only thought it was cute and didn't raise any opposition. Things went smoothly and the date was set one year after that conversation. Each day they got closer to the date, Ram'tha and Akiri dreamed of their adult life together, in which they did the things they loved together. In this year, the two kids wondered if peace was really a lie...(to be continued)

-> If you managed to arrived here then Imk what you think! (and ty for reading hahaha!) I'd love to discuss about it and receive criticism, too.

Buffy Season One Review

I’m on my first Buffy rewatch in a long time - I think over a decade? I have watched the entire series enough times that the episodes are all still kind of burned into my brain, but I’m curious what my reaction will be now I’m a bit older.

Anyway, I’ve finished Season One, and I thought I might do a quick review of each season as I go. Can’t promise I’ll be able to keep it up, but I’ll give it a go. So…

Season One Review

S1 is… fine. It’s okay. It’s not as good as later seasons, but it’s not bad; it’s shallower than later seasons, but having expected that I found there’s a surprising amount of depth here. (Partly because I’m watching after reading @herinsectreflection’s excellent analyses, which inspired this most recent rewatch.)

I actually don’t think there are many bad episodes in S1 - the problem is, there’s hardly any good episodes either, and none that rise beyond just being ‘good’. They’re mostly just perfectly serviceable - the metaphors are a bit blunt, the humour’s a bit broad, the MIDI soundtrack kind of sucks, the vibes are kind of cheesy and immature, and overall, it’s just…

It’s Power Rangers. It’s a bit deeper and scarier, and the action scenes are worse, but basically, Season One is Power Rangers. And that’s not bad - I kind of like Power Rangers, and it’s not a bad season by those standards - but it’s not what Buffy is trying to be, or what it will become.

Season Score: 5/10 - It’s fine.

Big Bad - The Master:

In some ways, the Master is perfect. It makes sense that Buffy’s first villain is this kind of ancient and powerful vampire - he’s not as interesting as later villains, but it feels appropriate that Buffy has to beat this more generic Big Bad to move on to them. And he has a strong enough presence that he can actually bear the mythic weight that is placed upon him - it makes sense that he’s the one that killed Buffy, that he sired the Bisexual Vampire Squad; it never feels inappropriate that he has this important place in the mythology of the series, and he can carry that weight in his rare later appearances.

Unfortunately, in this season, he’s a Power Rangers villain. He sits in his lair, sending out minions and screaming in frustration when they fail. (Even finally facing the hero directly in the finale, beating them easily before they get a power up and return the favour - classic Power Rangers villain stuff.) He spends most of the season both trapped and sickly - while at full power he’s a compelling, intimidating presence, for most of the season he seems weak and kind of effete, like a homophobic Bond villain. At his best, he's montrous yet civilised, brutal but witty; in his weakened state, he lacks the contrasts that make him compelling.

Still, he is charming, he does work well in the finale, and he’s always a delight in his rare later appearances. So…

Big Bad Score: 5/10 - He’s fine. (... and not in that sense.)

Rewatch Reevaluations

The biggest change in my perspective since my last rewatch is around Angel. When I was younger, I didn’t really think much about the age difference between him and Buffy; now I’m older, I’m extremely aware of it, but also, it seems like the show is too. The episode where he shifts from ‘random mysterious stranger’ to ‘potential love interest’ is Teacher’s Pet - an episode about an older sexual predator preying on teenagers. Then in ‘Angel’, we don’t just see him creepily staring at Buffy, we see him lie to her about it afterwards, in an episode where the age difference is a major topic of discussion.

In general, his obsession with her comes across as way more creepy and pathetic than I remember, and while part of that is just my interpretation, I do think think the series is aware of it; I think him following her around and staring at her from afar is meant to be kind of offputting. I’m curious how I’ll feel about their romance going forward - I remember on previous watches I thought their breakup in Season 3 was unmotivated, and I suspect I’ll feel very differently about it this time around.

I’m also generally more aware of some things after reading @herinsectreflection’s essays. In particular, I’m noticing Buffy’s relationship to death - from her ‘seize the day, because tomorrow you might be dead’ philosophy in the first episode, to her rebelling against and accepting it in the last… and her Faith-like smile as she enjoys mortal combat with vampires at the beginning of ‘Prophecy Girl’. I’m also much more aware of Giles as a very flawed figure torn between paternal affection for Buffy and sending her to her death - which is explicit in a few episodes, but I’m more aware of it as an ongoing arc, rather than just some isolated emotional beats.

Other than that, one thing I’m noticing is how much weight the show gives to the death of minor characters. It’s easy for an action/horror show to start treating death casually or flippantly, but so far the show is careful to give each death an emotional impact, to make every death matter… at least ‘til the end of the episode, at which point they’ll be promptly forgotten about. Sorry Jesse.

And unsurprisingly for a 90s show, I am finding the sense of humour a little mean and kind of misogynistic, especially towards Cordelia. That said, though Xander is often the face of this meanness, I honestly don’t dislike him, even in S1. The thing is, either the show is aware that he’s being an asshole, in which case it’s an intentional character flaw, which is good; or it isn’t, in which case I tend to blame the show itself rather than the character. Maybe that’s a little generous, but it lets me enjoy the character, so I’m willing extend that generosity. I am curious how I’ll feel about him going forward. I'm glad at least Cordelia gets to be more of a character towards the end of the season - it does make the jokes around her feel a lot less mean.

Honourable Mention Award for Underrated or Forgotten Characters Who Deserve to be Mentioned Honourably

3. Zookeeper Furry from ‘The Pack’. Just a really solid one-off villain performance, in an era where performances tend towards the broad and cheesy side of the spectrum.

2. The Black Cat from ‘The Witch’. Looks like stock footage, never shares a shot or even a set with another character, and achieves nothing except slightly startling Giles, after which he just continues as if nothing happened. Yet despite doing basically nothing, it achieves greatness by earning a place in the opening credits. Truly an inspiration.

1. Principal Flutey. With how much he gets overshadowed by Principal Snyder, it’s easy to forget how great Flutey is as a character. From tearing up Buffy’s permanent record and taping it back together again in front of her, to being eaten by Hyena-possessed students, Flutey is a delight whenever he’s on screen - he’s genuinely a highlight of Season 1 for me. Principal Flutey, I salute you, and hearby mention you as honourably as I can.

Episode Rankings

Might not do this for every season, but hey, it’s a short season, so why not. Starting from the top:

'Prophecy Girl' - Obvious choice, needs no explanation.

'Angel' - Strong character work, introduces a bunch of ideas that’ll be important for the rest of the series, and solves the problem of making a single vampire a threat by giving her guns, which I respect.

'Welcome to the Hellmouth'/'The Harvest' - A solid introduction to the series; I wouldn’t call it great by most standards, but it competently introduces everything the setting, characters and the premise of the series, which is impressive in its own way. Luke is perfect in his role - he’s a compelling presence that feels like a genuine threat, but he’s not so interesting that he distracts from the important things.

'The Pack' - A solid guest performance from the zookeeper, Principal Flutey’s last stand, and some juicy thematic and character goodness makes leaves this Monster of the Week episode at the head of the pack. (… I am so terribly sorry.)

'Nightmares' - Character! Themes! Imagery! This episode has it all, at least by the standards of Season One.

'Out of Mind, Out of Sight' - The first episode that treats Cordelia like an actual character. Also, invisible assassin school! Everybody loves invisible assassin school.

'The Witch' - A perfectly competent MOTW episode, this gets a boost for featuring the cat that accomplishes nothing.

'I Robot, You Jane' - Yeah, the 90s hacker schtick is goofy, but this ep’s not bad - I like the goofy robot demon and the surprisingly good demon prosthetics for its non-robot body that barely appears in the episode. I like the idea that scanning a magic book can summon a demon into the internet itself. Also, Jenny’s here.

'Teacher’s Pet' - Another MOTW episode that does its job adequately. I’m inclined to think of this as the Most Typical Season 1 Episode - it perfectly represents the season at its baseline.

'Puppet Show' - I kind of like some of the ideas in this episode, but the puppet’s a creep and parts of the plot feel contrived. (Why are they sure the demon will leave as soon as it has the organs? Why would Giles get into a guillotine under any circumstances?) Overall… Eh, it’s fine.

'Never Kill A Boy on the First Date' - There’s some good stuff in here, especially around Buffy’s relationship to Giles and to her own Slayerhood. Unfortunately, the plot just doesn’t work - even this early on, one vampire just doesn’t feel like enough of a threat to build an episode around, and generic serial killer vamp is no exception - he's certainly no Luke. It’s a plot entirely concerned with setting up the larger arc around the Anointed One, and that would leave this episode feeling empty and boring even if it was for an arc that was actually, you know, good.

So that's Season One. I enjoyed it fine, but... I'm definitely looking forward to the series really getting good. If somehow you've actually read this far: Thank you for putting my words into your brain. I take it as a great compliment, and hope you liked them - or, failing that, that they invoked in you a great fury, such as only the worst opinions may conjure.

In any case - and regardless of whether I can be bothered to write any more of these - I will continue my rewatch into the Actually Good seasons of Buffy.

[feelingbluepolitics]

PART 2 is a continued glance at the Midwest:

Illinois, Indiana, Iowa,  Kansas,  Michigan, Minnesota,  Missouri,  Nebraska, North Dakota,  Ohio,  South Dakota, and Wisconsin,

picking up with

Minnesota. Minnesota is BLUE. If you call it "purple," you will irk journalists who live there.

"Minnesota has given its electoral votes to the Democratic candidate in every presidential election since 1976. That's 11 straight. That's the longest blue streak in the country."

The thing is, it also has a bit of a populist streak, and it came terrifyingly close to breaking its electoral streak for trump. Hillary pulled off this Blue State by a 1.52% margin.

trump also has an ongoing terror campaign in relation to Minnesota because he and Fox Gnus have appeared to be trying to get Ilhan Omar killed.

If any Republicons are too many (yes), then Minnesota still has problems.

The 2018 elections went so well, it's actually fun to read about them from the conservative vantage point:

"Across the board, we lost every race. Let me repeat that: every race. The governor is a democrat, the secretary of state, the auditor and most terrifyingly, Keith Ellison will be our Attorney General."

But in one of most awful upsets ever, in April 2019, a horrible human pulled off a deeply painful conservative win for Minnesota's Supreme Court, locking the Court hard right until at least 2023.

"[N]ear-record spending leading up to this week’s race poured in even as some of the state’s perennial big-spenders opted to remain on the sidelines. The conservative groups that sat out the race — Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and the Wisconsin Realtors Association (WRA) — did so primarily because of the anti-LGBT views that came through in Hagedorn’s blog posts, speeches, and his role in co-founding a private school that prohibits LGBT students and faculty. Hagedorn’s blog posts also called Planned Parenthood a 'wicked organization' and the NAACP 'a disgrace to America.'"

The montrous Haggedorn achieved a win against the very popular, consistently in the lead, progressive Lisa Neubauer. A last-minute blanketing blitz of ad money closed and then turned the race, which featured an early use of "Kavanaugh'd" as a verb. While conservatives think it means someone treated unfairly, it actually means, "a contemptible, hateful, repulsive, awful person who should never have been even considered as a candidate."

Meanwhile, Amy Klobuchar is a Democratic presidential candidate running on her appeal to Midwesterners, trying to pull the Left and the Right politically continental tectonic plates back together again.

Missouri. Another state known for grotesque Republicon gerrymandering, Missouri's voters came together with over 60% in favor of Amendment 1, to clean up the mess. The Amendment addressed opening up legislative e-mails, and closing down on lobbyist-paid gifts, but most significantly, it empowered a demographer to craft a map that emphasizes partisan fairness and competitiveness.

Hah.

The predictable state legislative Republicon supermajorities, which are not just supermajorities, but huge supermajorities, are busy killing Amendment 1.

Missouri is a block of red, both state-wide and by district, and has been a Republicon trifecta since 2012. With Republicons ignoring over 60% of the state's voters, there's a hope that the voters will be mad enough to see blue...but it's a faint hope.

Nebraska. Nebraska is weird. I don't really understand it. It's considered a safely Republicon state, yet it also has a reputation for having elected centrists from either side.

Then they came up with the idea of Ben Sasse, who meets in the middle by way of saying lots but doing nothing based on what he says.

Nebraska splits it's electoral votes, like Maine, which are the only two states that don't have "winner take all" electoral laws. Like nowhere else in the country, Nebraska has a unicameral system, which auto-correct tries to change to "bicameral," because, what the hell?

Apparently, life currently sucks in Nebraska.

It's depressing. In part that's because trump's freaking trade wars, and trump's contribution to the climate crisis, are clearly impacting Nebraska, but he'll probably keep most of their votes anyway.

Meanwhile, Nebraska is undergoing that ugly Republicon seizure where they want kids' schools to give businesses lots of money. The business is ag, down billions of dollars, because they voted for trump.

North Dakota. Republicon since 1968. Seriously. North Dakota can best be described as "WTF."

That's Whatever The Frackers want, need, prefer, wish for, etc. That calls for Republicons, so ND will maintain its ongoing subsidence into a bedrock of Republiconism.

This is so long, moving on to

Part Three.

CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT MEME REPOST. DO NOT REBLOG.

FULL NAME: Prince Oberyn Nymeros Martell GENDER & SEXUALITY: Male / Bisexual ETHNICITY & SPECIES: Dornish (Salty), otherworldly good-looking human. BIRTHPLACE & BIRTHDATE: Sunspear,  257 AC. GUILTY PLEASURES: Hey Lottie, they have something in common— more than enough pleasures, and absolutely none he feels guilty over. PHOBIAS: Phobia is a very big word; I’m answering none, well, beyond the fear we all feel in heart regarding family, especially considering what has happened to his sister, niece and nephew. Beyond that, I don’t see another crippling fear. WHAT THEY WOULD BE INFAMOUS FOR: Ah, the famous quote that works a bit too well to answer this with, but we’ll do it anyway because we’re doing a sum-up of canonically confirmed. Let’s see, poisoning his dagger in combat/duel with Edgar Yronwood that led to the Lord’s death, while it was a duel to first blood. Fathering more bastards than even Robert Baratheon himself and bedding regardless of gender. WHAT HAVE THEY/WOULD THEY HAVE GOTTEN ARRESTED FOR: He would’ve been arrested at sixteen already, most likely. Even before the part during which a man died at his hand; the mere concept of dueling in such fashion has long since been banned. But then again, it’s also illegal to walk around armed in any way in numerous western countries— so yes, I mean. CHARACTER YOU SHIP THEM WITH: Speaking serious ships? Ellaria Sand stands very far first and foremost on his end and also in my list in terms of what interests me to write. Beyond that, little reminder that I’m not huge on shipping, so I’m not going to be the one to answer this with tons of options. AU potentials like Cersei Lannister and Oberyn exist, but I won’t lie, a lot of it does stem quite the chemistry Lena and Pedro had (I know, it’s the show, but do you remember the look on his face when she asks if she can show him the gardens and while he answers ‘I couldn’t very well refuse a royal escort’ and in the second that follows? That glance. And Cersei feels it/does a similar thing), But I’ll be approaching it cautiously and with plotting. CHARACTER MOST LIKELY TO MURDER THEM: Listen, we don’t talk about how it was Oberyn who was responsible for his own death. Gregor Clegane never actually won. FAVOURITE BOOK GENRE: There is no proper favorite, although if I had to note one so soon in my writing of him— I’d say either works linked to knowledge that could be practical to him, filling an arsenal of already rather extensive knowledge; or otherwise, perhaps, works of worlds long passed or far out of grasp, although they’d lack in practicality. But I don’t feel like there is a favorite, not yet, I’m not even sure if there would be one, as noting a favorite means that you’ve tried so much already that there’s not much else to touch upon and that contradicts his way of thinking to some extent. LEAST FAVOURITE BOOK CLICHÉ: That big, tall and broad means victory by default. ;) TALENTS OR POWERS: Renowned in combat (go-to weapon in planned battle is an eight feet long spear, equipped with a steel spearhead and spike, but he’s more commonly equipped with a dagger much more suited for closed quarters). Has a very quick-witted tongue that is complemented by being, as quoted ‘quick as a water snake’. While a very knowledgeable man through studies and travel/experience already; he’s well-versed in animal husbandry to an extent, along with some histories of Westeros and Essos at minimum, with at least two of his specializations including poisons and (if one believes Qyburn) magic. Raincheck on the rest? WHY SOMEONE MIGHT LOVE THEM: Because his loyalty, much like his brother’s and family as a whole, is larger than life itself. And as much was proven (despite his confidence also not lacking) when he decided to fight the Mountain, as it was his means to obtain justice for her and her children. Oberyn is very quick-witted, which creates for very strong one-liners that would make you smile in midst of short laughs, sometimes while you can’t help but facepalm. He’s unpredictable, which is a trait that can thrill you to the core as he’ll rarely do the same thing twice. He’s passionate. Passionate about his family, his paramour, his daughters, the knowledge he seeks and the world he travels and wants to experience before he meets his end. WHY SOMEONE MIGHT HATE THEM: See, the thing with Oberyn is that he’s often a man of extremes. So the traits he has that can make you adore him, can also have you dislike him. His sharp tongue is often unwanted and on top of which, very unfitting in  rather tiring (I’m sure Doran has plenty to say about this, or well, most of these). He’s very unpredictable, which can nothing short of thrilling but can also very definitely infuriate you, as you rarely know where you stand or how he’ll react. He’s already quite rash individual by default, add a temper to that mix and you can see why he has quite the reputation. HOW THEY CHANGE: That would indicate that his path changed on some level, or that his view or interests change, while they do but very little if they ever even do in the first place. Throughout his youth (however inseperable he and Elia were, despite how different they were), Oberyn has been described as having been ‘a monstrous young fellow', especially in his teen years, which serves as already quite a ‘starting’ explanation. Oberyn possess a strong energy and drive to him still as he ages, but they are now utilized with a more productive end and means. Although I do suppose he can still be quite the montrous handful if you asked his brother. WHY YOU LOVE THEM: For every single answer I’ve typed above and endless more.

TAGGED BY: @trickstercaptain (I love youuuuu, Lottie) TAGGING: @epiphonoi (for Frank or Dorian, or both if you’re up to it!), @lionhvrted (Ellaria), @killthebxy, @loialte (Steve), @tymptir (Sam!) @wineinthewidow, @praeludio (Arthur), @arcusignis, @truthsecn (Murtagh), @freckledsnack, @afelion (d’Artagnan), @ncthingleft and don’t mind me, but I want to fill this out on Ezio as well, so just as a reminder for myself: @iniziare

[waywardtravelerfart]

OK I JUST HAD ONE HELL OF AN EMOTIONAL AND METAPHYSICAL ROLLER COASTER OF A NIGHT SO GET READY FOR RANT MODE.

You want to know why I will never pray to the fucking monotheistic-entitled Abrahamic deity of Jewish/Christian/Islamic/whatever fucking else ever again?!?

BECAUSE IT IS THE NEXT LEVEL DEFINITION OF BEING A PHILOSOPHICAL FUCKING PUSSY.

You know what the abrapussies believe started everything?!? Fucking Yahweh/Hova or whatever he wants to be called was just sitting in some deep as shit fucking water (this is real shit, look at the first page of bible studies factsdammit) and said, “you know what, let’s make a universe of lesser sentient beings to have my metaphysical dick sucked.” So he can say this shit and the universe is just him and some mixed up crap. It’s easy, “God” just catches you soul wherever the fuck your shattered soul/mind/consciousness goes and assigns you a place based on his inexplicable mood which can be based on some rapidly aging trussed up socially tyrannical incel who we are forced to admit has more in common with this cookoo metaphysical tyrant than we would like to admit. The universe is its own self assured fucking safety net. Fucking sure.

Take a look at that and compare that with the truly realistic panicky clusterfuck that is the origin story of the Hellenic “Pagan gods.” The outright absurdism of nobody having any goddamn clue what the fuck came before Gaia, who is dead set against the relatively most rational guy of the literal third generation of actual conscious entities in what is understood as all existence, is an undeniably self-evident fact. Like, she’s the closest thing to an actual moral center of fucking anything the “universe” will ever get, and she is officially declaring any semblance of law or order of the factdamn window by dreaming up a lovecraftian magma-animal-continent-rapist (I forget what the thing was actually called) to shoot out of her figurative-tectonic-plate-vajayjay at whatever fast enough speed to freak out an apparent WMD of a being and his supposed-power-equivalent siblings into running the first chance they get.

So yeah, reality as a concept was fucked to the core of its fucking self at this point. But do you know who managed to make there fucking concept undeniable in the face of all this and actually be the one most likely responsible for reality in the Hellenistic sense actually making sense again by whatever fucjing sense that makes despite the concept of absurdism bring absolutely confirmed?!?!?!?!?!?!?

HEPH. FUCKING. PHEASTUS.

(AND YES, I AM COUNTING HIM AS BRING PART OF THE LATER TITANOMACHY AGAINST THE MAGMA-CONTINENT RAPIST, BECAUSE HOW FUCKING ELSE DO YOU EXPLAIN HIM MAKING PANDORA FOR EARLY MAN. THATS HOW YOU KNOOOOW THAT HELLENISTIC BELIEFS MIGHT ACTUALLY BE MORE ACCURATE AT LEAST AS A RELATABLE CONCEPT. BECAUSE LIKE TUCKER MAX OF ALL PEOPLE FUCKING SAID, REALITY DOESNT OWE YOU ANYTHING LIKE FUCKING SENSE.)

This guy was literally disowned by his shitty imperialist/fascist dieties of parent in favor of his lunatical-sociopathic twin brother, whether right out of the womb or as soon as he disagreed with his super-in-charge-of-everything-like-some-other-inherently-irrational father. The point is, did the let his now established separation from the gods by actual deformities which could easily be traced back to said shitty parents, decide the fucked up fate of everything?!?!?

FUCK. NO.

Instead, he literally invented the ideas of smithing, or making something that just is into something MORE, HOLY SHIT. AND BE USED THAT VERY CONCEPT TO FORCE SPARKS OF FIRE TOGETHER INTO THE. NEW. FORCE. OF. FUCKING. ELECTRICY?!?!?! WHICH IS EVEN. ORE I PRESSIVE WHEN YOU THINK OF WHERE HE MUST GAVE GOTTEN THE MATERIALS FOR THAT NECESSARY ANVIL. HE FORGED/MOLDED IT OUT OF HIS FUCKING MONTROUS HANDS IM FUCKING SURE OF IT.

And. Only. Then. Did he proceed to make sure everyone had the tools (Zeus’s bolts, Posideons’s Trident, etc.,). Only once he broke the existential fuckiness of reality itself out of sheer force itself.

Look, I’m going to be comparing Midoriya Izuku to him somehow, I’m sure, but right now I need sleep. The point is;

IF THE UNIVERSE HAD A FUCKING CONCEPT OF WHAT A HERO IS, ITS FUCKING HEPHAESTUS.
