"average apostate mage betrays hero once a Dragon Age game" factoid actualy just statistical error. average apostate betrays mostly 0 times a game. Betrayal Solas, who lives in sad fade land & betrays over 10,000 people each day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted

Transformers One

I just thought of something sad. Now, my fellow fans, you will suffer with me. I apologize in advance. Also, if you haven't seen Transformers One yet... this is your warning. Spoilers are present!

Orion, D-16, Elita, and Bee were given t-cogs by Alpha Trion. D-16 became a tank, equipped with a massive gun. Orion received smaller guns, but they can only be used in his vehicle form. At least, that's the only time we see them in use before be became Optimus Prime.

That means Orion had the ability to defend himself when he was trying to stop D-16 from killing Sentinel. He took punches to the face. He fell to the ground. I think it's safe to say that Orion knew D-16 would resort to violence, and yet...

He never fired at D-16.

He could have seriously hurt his friend, or at least slowed him down. I think Orion hoped D-16 would stop, evaluate the situation, and consider how to best deal with Sentinel. Orion didn't think D-16 would fire on him... why else would he get in D-16's way? Or, maybe he wanted to keep D-16 from succeeding in his task, which would taint his reputation. Maybe Orion acted recklessly and wasn't really thinking, but I highly doubt that. There was purpose behind it.

Hurting or killing D-16 wasn't his priority, even if he had the ability to use force.

He still held out hope that his best friend would come back. He hoped hesitance and critical thinking would come to the forefront of D-16's mind.

Orion only fights when he has to, even in the bleakest of times. His words are powerful for a reason.

So yeah, now I'm sad. Orion cared more about his friend's condition than his own.

posted this on twt but god. i have talked a lot about how insane phi's character is to me but it's just. i will never get over how for most of both vlr and ztd she's relatively cold and unemotional but ztd has moments where she just. breaks. i.e. the shoot:live option of fire where she literally breaks down crying and can barely get a sentence out even BEFORE diana kills herself. or in the final decision when she fucking YELLS at delta and kicks him in the face not even out of reasons like with dio but out of sheer anger for everything he's put her though. like IDK. i fold easily for the "unemotional character is pushed to their breaking point and shows MUCH more emotion than usual" trope but its so fucking interesting. phi i love you we will get you therapy

The thing about the O'Carrick twins is that really the only songs I can find that truly capture the betrayal and heartbreak and the self-doubt and the misplaced trust of their relationship is Adel break up songs

I fear that the arcane fandom asks all the wrong questions. One of the biggest questions the fandom has had is what happened for Vander to go from seeing silco as his brother to trying to kill him? I believe the better question to ask is when the HELL IS Silco's attempted murder? Is it before the bridge, or after? Both choices change the story with their major implications.

If Silco's attempted murder happens BEFORE the bridge, then this could explain why silco seemingly isn't present on the bridge, which is one of Zaun's biggest revolts against piltover. If he had just severed ties with Vander, he probably wouldn't go to the bridge bc he knows Vander is there and the last time Vander saw him he tried to kill him. His physical injuries caused by Vander could also be a reason why he didn't attend: he physically wasn't able to. However if the attempted murder happens before the bridge, then this doesn't explain Vander's change of heart. This would imply that Vander nearly killed Silco because he saw how dangerous and extreme he was, only to turn around and lead a violent revolt against Piltover. That doesn't really make a lot of sense.

If Silco's attempted murder happens AFTER the bridge, then this would explain the falling out. Vander would have seen first hand the damage of their actions and would have tried to stop Silco from repeating those dire mistakes. This could also explain how Silco knew Vander had kids and how he knew exactly who his kids were. If Silco tried to contact Vander after the bridge, there's a possibility he would have actually seen or come across his kids. This would be crazy because this would imply that there could have been a point where Vander, vi, jinx, and silco were all in the same room or had came across each other when they were all alive and young (currently it's believed that Silco knew about Vander's kids because he had been keeping tabs on Vander/stalking him/everyone knew vander had kids in the underground. Silco included, even though he was cast out by society). However, this wouldn't explain Silco's absence from the bridge. I don't see why he would have missed that unless he absolutely was unable to go. This could also go against Vander's character. If he truly did swear off violence after the bridge, then did he really turn around and then plot Silco's murder? But then again, see the first statement made in this paragraph.

The tale Lestat told of his turning was met justifiably by open suspicion from Claudia (“Magnus could be a sous chef in Switzerland for all we know.”) and unspoken doubt from Louis. It speaks to the unnavigable depths of mistrust created by Lestat’s actions that the pair have to question even the horrific violence he describes receiving (“One sob story about his birth”) or the complicated trauma caused by Magnus’ suicide (“I think he killed Magnus.”). The only person who could possibly verify the truthfulness of this story is Armand; he met Lestat shortly after the latter became a vampire, he knew Magnus and what he was capable of longer than Lestat did (“[...] one of my deserters”), and he has a penchant for perusing the minds of others. Armand sharing this knowledge could provide Daniel with a better understanding of the events and subjects of the interview, as well as help Louis parse his complicated feelings for Lestat. It is striking then that when recounting his shared past with Lestat to Daniel, which is presumably the same story he had previously given to Louis, Armand is careful to never say anything that could fully corroborate or dispel those suspicions. When Daniel calls attention to this (“To hear Louis tell it, Lestat becoming a vampire was a horror show.”), Armand gracefully deflects (“That may be.”) and heavily insinuates that Lestat is not someone who can be trusted; calling into question the extent of the trauma that Lestat expressed over a century later (“But he made a remarkable recovery shortly thereafter.”), before describing Lestat as a skilled manipulator (“[...] his hand feeding the audience”), using imagery that paints Lestat’s words as equally captivating as they are fantastical (“How words came out like canaries, summer fruit in the dead of winter.”). The quickness in which Armand concludes that Magnus must be dead (“He’s died, hasn’t he?”) suggests that Lestat could only be free if he was, but still leaves it ambiguous whether Lestat played a role in his demise. While Armand confirms that there is truth to Lestat’s claim that he was not given any guidance by Magnus (“I can teach you what he didn’t.”), the subsequent accusation that Lestat pretended to reciprocate Armand’s love in order to learn that knowledge means that Lestat is still positioned as dishonest. By maintaining and reinforcing this uncertainty about Lestat through opening up about his own past, Armand is looking to gain a degree of sympathy and trust from Daniel, as well as reinforce the image that he would not deceive others.

Just finished re-watching the Superhero trilogy after a long while and ha I swear Mysterion's expression in this scene still gets to me. Imagine thinking the universe finally reveals to you why you're stuck with your curse....only for it to be "Oh sorry I'm talking to the guy behind you..." and what's worse you can't blame the other guy or even explain to him and your friends why you're so upset.
