Go ahead, cast Joe Morton as the most terrifying chameleon son of a bitch, I cannot help but want to love his character. Brother from Another Planet? a total cinnamon roll, too good for this world (and not from it) -- Eli Rowan Pope? You're a baddie who has people tortured and assassinated, but I cannot keep my eyes off of you.

This definitely won't happen but it would be so fucking funny if they arrive at the planet Thrawn and Ezra were stranded on and it turns out that these two are best friends now and Thrawn is completely on Ezra's side. Morgan Elsbeth pleads for Thrawn to return and reignite the Empire and he's just like "those bitches? Fuck em. Ezzie and I started a band, we play Jizz music on Wednesdays. Here's my wallet pictures of us hanging out."
#Thrawn becomes the autistic older brother Ezra always needed and Ezra is the pet Loth cat Thrawn never wanted but loves anyway#Ahsoka#ahsoka series#ahsoka spoilers#Thrawn#ezra bridger#mitth'raw'nuruodo#ahsoka show#ahsoka show spoilers#Ahsoka Tano#ahsoka series spoilers#What will most likely happen is that they'll arrive to find Thrawn and Ezra were completely separated upon arrival#Possibly Ezra is on a completely different planet entirely#And it'll be an extra side quest to continue looking for Ezra#Thrawn will be the same old crusty musty dusty blue boy who hates everyone and is too smart for anything#<- I only called him crusty musty dusty because my phone's predicted text insisted those words belonged together and I'm crying#I do like him. He just smells#I'm interested to see how they handle his return however#We know the Empire never gets reformed until another 20 or so years from the time of the show under the name The First Order#So idk we'll see#This episode was so great

I miss them so bad (Dick and Damian)
#ramblings of a lunatic#dc comics#damian wayne#dick grayson#ITS JUST NOT THE SAME MAN#idk i was reading nightwing must die (again...) bc i was in a funk and saw another post saying how fans exaggerate the closeness btwn them#and on the one hand i get it. there is a very rosy portrayal of their relationship you'll come across in fanon#and they weren't very close at the beginning of their relationship#but man. reading Nightwing must die again was like#YES they fight. damian instigates it and while dick tries to exercise patience he does fight back/lash out on occasion#but despite all that it's still emphasized how important the two are to each other#when dick is forced to picture a future where he's lost his way he pictures damian being the one to bring him back#not necessarily bc damian is his favorite person on the planet but bc he gave damian robin. for a lot of practical reasons-#-but also bc how far damians come is (i think at least based on this arc) a testament to dick that hes doing Something right#both as a hero/person#damian is more than just a burden saddled on him (although there's an element of that in their batman and robin run)#he's also a last remaining connection to bruce when he's gone (remembering where he comes from) AND he's training damian+#-his own way! with a dash of tough love and workaholic spirit inherited but also a lot of patience and focus on being More than the darkness#idc what ppl say nightwing must die makes sense for these two. its a retcon but one that works imo#that dick buried his head in the sand about how much damian meant/the responsibility he had to him bc it was a commitment he was afraid of#and how damian ultimately was a point of maturation for dick even if he went back to being Nightwing#they were SO goddamn close and now they're still close but only in ways that are implied#and their bond is deemphasized in comparison to each others bond w/ say bruce. which i think is a shame#it was a wrinkle! a fun wrinkle that the batfamily had that in some ways dick understood damian better than Bruce-#-even if he didn't feel like he could handle the responsibility of raising him full time#it kills me that bc of the n52 we never got the handover of the batman mantle (and damian) from dick to bruce#next nightwing writer...include a flashback to that moment AND have damian appear in the book in present....AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!!!#anyway. dick is damians brother but also damian a little bit imprinted on him like a baby duck and its rubbed off on dick#they're partners they're mentor mentee but most importantly they were batman and robin. and they were the greatest#NOT bc it was all peaches and roses but bc they cared for each other exponentially despite all that

yknow it's interesting how jarilo is almost entirely inspired by russia (like. all the names. and snow 👍) and then apparently sampo's name is finnish. hm
#i may be wrong tho and there are other finnish names in belobog#but given that there's now another planet that has finnish inspiration in its names. i can't help but wonder 🤔#also iirc some belobogians imply that sampo isn't from there right (in my heart he's still seele's brother tho.)#(whose name is apparently german. lol nvm maybe i'm reading too deep into things)#(but also if it's from *ancient* belobogian language supposedly then. might add a layer here that doesn't contradict it hm)#(ig i can always make up a backstory for them as siblings in my mind.)#(older brother knew he couldn't provide his sister with a good and honest life so he left her at an orphanage. etc)#(STRAYED WAY OFF TOPIC THERE SORRY. ANYWAY YEAH WHAT DO WE THINK IS SAMPO A NATIVE BELOBOGIAN)

i never thought id actually finish a project so big, but she’s done in all her glory: 45 chapters, 403 pages, 233,000 words….
and now i can tear it to bits editing for twice as long as it took me to write it!!
#nonsims#what do i do at work now???#probably going to write another book before i edit because i’m in too deep with this one#my brain needs a reset#i’ve been thinking from the perspective of reed for months and that doesn’t seem healthy#he’s f*cked up#but i love him#anyway my new obsession is cedric from big brother because he’s the most gorgeous man ever put on this planet#(and he looks like reed’s brother)#(no spoilers)

I can't believe the entire personality of the main character of Prometheus revolves around Lawrence of Arabia being his favorite film. No need to call me out like this!!
#im only a bit in#but the way he drops quotes randomly#DONT CALL ME OUT#and also the fact that both films were at least partially filmed in Wadi Rum ....#dhjfkf they see the desert like planet and he quotes lawrence#and in the same moment i could instantly think of another quote from lawrence abt the desert#my brother advertised this movie to me exactly based on this haha#the way hes trying to resemble lawrence yet imo he looks more like homelander 😭😭#catie.rambling.txt

Okay I do really like that they went all out on making Philip like the Collectors tough.
Just like them he archives who he wants (Caleb) and when a toy (grimwalker) is broken he simply makes a new one. And just like them he used a dead Titan (both in saying he can talk to him and in possessing the corpse) to fool everyone and just like them he was going to scorch and kill everyone who opposed him.
#also that he is from another world. from outside their planet.#but also how he dosen’t come there initially to do so but to get to someone from his own family. going there for his older brother like#our Collector went there for their siblings but then got trapped. and both of them let out their rage anger and sadness over their situation#onto the isles and it’s inhabitants. cause the person responsible is long dead and just a corpse.#the fact that Philips delusion is born out of his love for Caleb. that he wanted to be a hero (at least partly) for Caleb and because of him#philly cheese steak#ramblings#toh#the owl house#watching and dreaming spoilers#philip wittebane#emperor belos

It was my right of way but ok fine whatever we're ok I can shake that off! I'm grateful to be ok!#BUT THEN JUST EARLIER I HAD TO DROP TWO KIDS AT A FUCKING... PLANET FITNESS????#And as I'm driving on a like. 30-40 road I'm on the left side cause I need to turn at the light#And there's one car that's going the opposite way that needs to turn and go across the road? and there's another car-#-that is coming from my right that's trying to turn the other way. I dunno if I'm explaining this well but they're both trying to cross-#-over the lanes and in front of me#and the guy on the right goes and he has time to make it. but he doesn't#He suddenly stops IN FRONT OF ME BLOCKING MY LANE?????#Doesn't even pull into the spot where he can wait??? to get on the main road?????????????#And he finally fucking moves. BUT THE OTHER CAR DOES THE SAME FUCKING THING ARE YOU SERIOUS???????#Needless to say I am. exhausted I'm so fucking pissed I want to cry I want to scream. I want to laugh! Because I'm so happy nothing happene#But HOLY FUCK dude. FUCKING WHAT???? WHY DOES EVERYONE DRIVE SO FUCKING STUPID AFTER IT RAINS????????#IT WASN'T EVEN RAINING ANYMORE IT'S JUST A LITTLE WET FUCK
