Edit: Feanor in the published silmarillion did not die fighting a Balrog, he died fighting MULTIPLE Balrogs.

im so glad empanada, even after a tough day, got to have that talk and hug with richas and then bagi where em got some lovely advice about dealing with grief from richas & talked about what went wrong during the day
but i can't help but contrast this with sunny. sunny who empanada still hasn't seen. sunny whose been alone for days. sunny whose talked with almost no one. sunny who doesn't know bad is dead. sunny whose pretending tubbo isn't dead. sunny who got no goodbye. sunny who got no long talks about grief. sunny who got no explanations. sunny who no one visited today. sunny whose birthday is tomorrow. sunny who no one will wake up for first tomorrow

does anyone have a written copy of the goblin emperor and might check something for me?
i have vague recollections of someone saying the bridge over the istandaärtha would need to span two miles, but checking with the audiobook is not working too well

Hey! Fans of Dimension 20's Burrows End and Watership Down, here's a fun lil project I found on Kickstarter:
Tumblr media
Description:
A duty-bound otter and an outlaw lemur must learn to trust each other as they flee a vengeful band of pirates in a post-apocalyptic Las Vegas ruled by animals. The Iron Barge is a talking-animal adventure story in the tradition of Mouse Guard, Watership Down, and The Jungle Book.
Loaded with high-stakes action, a little bit of humor, and unique world building, it'll be a book appropriate for upper-middle grade and YA readers, or anyone seeking a new twist on dystopian fiction.
End of Description.
It's got very cute art and character design. I'd recommend checking the project out, I've backed this myself and am very hopeful to see it get fully funded before the deadline :)

hey. hey uh. just wondering what happened to all the children Curtain barged and brainswept. I'm assuming he didn't have a child services worker politely waiting at the dock for them. uh. where did they go.
#the mysterious benedict society#tmbs#ld curtain#sometimes in the Big Things that Curtain's done stuff like this gets overlooked#did the kids get dropped off at the orphanage? would he really waste the time? raise suspicion about where all these kids are coming from?#assuming one student gets barged a week from the leaderboard every Thursday. in all the years the Institute's been running.#that's a lot of kids.#did the kids just get left on the docks. left to wander around Stonetown with no memories and nowhere to go#also. the fact that unlike the books. not all/most of the kids at LIVE were orphans#Martina had parents#now granted the Whisperer's messages 'the missing aren't missing' probably discouraged them from looking for their kid#but like. did the parents ever wonder. after months of not hearing from their kid.#did they go into town one day for some shopping only for their child to stumble out of an alleyway#dirty and alone and scared and with a completely blank expression#and doesn't even blink twice at their own parents? not even a spark of recognition?#thinking about when the Emergency lifted and the Whisperer's messages stopped.#how many parents suddenly remembered their children have been missing#how many parents rushed to the Institute only to find out their child disappeared years ago?#'what happened to them?'not sure. only they never say goodbye to any of their friends before they leave#like they don't even recognize them at all.#how many parents kept searching. kept following that thread. found their child in an orphanage with no memory of how they'd gotten there#anyways. food for thought!

Other than asking to enter, is there any other reason/scenario Robin would put us in THE VOID? In contrast is there any time where he would refuse to put us in the void? (I was thinking of him not wanting to take advantage of a mental breakdown or particularly vulnerable moment, or if we were intoxicated)
Also, how does entering their dimensions work? Is there a portal or is it more of an instantaneous teleportation? Also since Yuyu can put people in Rigels dimension, can they also take people out of dimensions that aren’t there own or is that only a one way deal?
Robin is unfortunately a toxic creature and will put the MC in there. He isn't particularly worried about a mental breakdown, and actually relishes the advantage. He won't push for anything, but he will definitely use it as a manipulation tactic.
I can't see him refusing if they were to ask for void time though. He'd probably find it cute, and enjoy that they've come to depend on him so much for comfort and safety.
I haven't focused on writing it much, but he is not a good person.
As for entering and exiting, the siblings can come and go freely through these pocket dimensions, they just don't out of politeness usually.

I know I freaked out about Kate a while ago, and I get that this is in the same sentence, but somehow I also forgot that Sticky got to Stonetown by hiding on a river barge????
I mean, Stonetown's a seaside town??? I always assumed it took his parents forever to find him because of the Emergency, but this means he could have been from literally anywhere?? If we're still sticking with Stonetown being somewhere in New England, there's a lot of rivers!!! He could have been from a completely other state!!! He could have been wandering around for weeks not just walking on foot, but actually traveling at a vehicle-fast pace
Just... thinking about how Mr. Benedict and co. knew this...
Milligan probably saw him sneaking off the barge when he was hanging up posters or whatever and was like Oh shoot, I can't straight up abduct the kid, it'll scare him. Well, the test is only in a day or two, maybe if he shows up there we can help and, like, starts whistling really loudly and hangs up a bunch of posters specifically in that area to be sure Sticky sees one, and then once the kid's actually put some distance between himself and the boat (If he was sneaking, Milligan didn't want to accidentally expose him and get him in trouble) he walks by and is like "Why, hello there, random child. You look like someone who is looking for opportunities. Also do you want a sandwich?" and hands him a flyer directly

florian and margaret are, hands-down, THE BEST platonic guy-girl relationship I've ever encountered in all of fiction ever. They're so sweet and care about each other so much and hrrgrgehrgh. I'm sorry but I will NOT be shutting up about them

#halfway through m d z s vol 4 and now i really am convinced that most of this fandom have 0 reading comprehension skills#so much shit that's still being debated that is. directly in the text? it's not ambiguous at all?? like sorry did you just skip that entire#paragraph or smth how are these debates still happening#ik i bring this up on a regular basis but i went into the book after the drama and a lot of folks were like ooh jc isnt v likeable. like ??#this is literally making him MORE likeable and sympathetic than the drama. it's making l w j less. l w j is around during all these key#fucking moments and from the narration you can tell he understands whats happening and hates it but he doesnt fucking do anything??#and his sect atp is in a decent state. he isnt heir. but for some reason he only steps in when he 'can't take it anymore' WHY COULD HE#TAKE IT BEFORE THAT WHY DOES IT TAKE SO MUCH FOR HIM TO STEP IN#and ik this is. gonna come into play post timeskip but ffs it's so frustrating he's pissing me off so much every time he appears#meanwhile lmao that banquet scene where wwx barges in just before hes about to go to rescue the wen? yeah jc isnt even in llj then#one of the annoying debates is uwu why didnt jc stand up for them too. girl why didnt your fave who actually attended#anyway not just this but also like. it seems that an embarrassingly huge number of readers just. took the gossip at face value?#which i just. i cant. like the entire theme of this!! the huge ass theme! was about public perception!! i cannot understand how that#goes over ppls heads it's so in your face!! a large amount of events are retold through gossip youre supposed to question it all not only b#it's gossip but also bc stuff is contradictory a lot is clearly exaggerated AND MOST IMPORTANTLY bc you as reader have many moments#where the real events play out and you can SEE how the public perception gets skewed. honestly shoutout to folks who found the fandom after#finishing the novels i would feel like i was being gaslit by everyone from the shit they say happened/is stated in the books#ugh had to get this off my chest. maybe ill spite finish a fic with this energy
