#Well done Jin

[benevolenterrancy]

finally in the process of reading the Guanyin Temple scene and holy shit if WWX isn't the protagonist of all time. We're in the Big Final Confrontation and so far my man has done fuck all except cuddle in LWJ's lap while everyone else is losing their shit and when he DOES finally do something he summons an army of naked, writhing, moaning sex corpses that even his allies just desperately wish Were Not There. stupendous, no notes

Thinking of when PC dies, Jin would be the first one to know.

[Because, in my bright words, Tohma has a PC sensor. A motherly inscint, if you will, that tells him if they're in danger.]

BUT NEWAY

He grips your right hand, his stigma should work. "Bianerus," He doesn't feel the weight off his shoulders as he usually does but it should work. Right?

"Live, You're Alive." Every possible thing he could've said, but you still won't wake up your eyes.

"Goddammit, come back to me, (servant)."

Jin angst makes me so happy 😊

[kenobihater]

wanted to capture one of the two victory lines from ryuzo that i had heard, so i volunteered as a pincusion. i then realized he has SIX victory lines, all of which he sounds suitably unhinged for

thinking about sethos voicelines (up to friendship lvl 2) and how he'd get along with kvthm bc i love them all a normal amount-

(unrestrained brainrot under the cut)

i've actually been thinking about them since cyno's 2nd story quest bc i was pretty intrigued by sethos' backstory but didn't want to hc too much until i had a better idea of his personality

and disclaimer: i only have sethos at friendship lvl 2 which means i don't have access to his "about [character]" lines and may be disproved by canon (but when has that ever stopped me)

ok so first, i know in my heart that kaveh and alhaitham would be permitted to enter the temple of silence given they have the trust of not only cyno and tighnari but also lesser lord kusanali

if sethos and those affiliated with the temple agreed to it, i think kvthm would be sent there to study its architecture and record any inscriptions

both of them, especially alhaitham, would also be excited to be able to read the books only available in the temple of silence

but moving on.

sethos and alhaitham would get along well bc they're both knowledgeable people who actively try to learn more

sethos considers himself a people person and enjoys learning more through talking w/ desert travelers and meeting others in sumeru city

whereas alhaitham is well-read and stays on top of current events through hearsay as he demonstrated during the optional dialogue during cyno's 2nd story quest

and sethos is always happy to help those who have questions, even going so far as to ask around in his network

so i think they could have interesting conversations and learn a lot from each other

now for kaveh, both he and sethos have similar voicelines on being out and about rather than cooped inside all day

and they both get sentimental about the stars in the night sky

also i like to think kaveh likes shopping at the grand bazaar, which sethos also frequents

so!! kaveh and sethos might go stargazing in the desert, maybe after kvthm have settled in after the journey to the temple of silence

and back in sumeru city, kaveh and sethos would enjoy sharing snacks and shopping in the bazaar together (or just taking a stroll and people-watching to relax)

and i'm not sure if this is canon yet but To Me, sethos gets invited to the cyno/tighnari/kaveh/alhaitham dinners whenever he's in town ^^

they are all good friends i know this to be true in my heart

Thus does the Divine Damsel's tale duly end

But today a new tale I have to append

Which I shall now tell if you shall attend

[existence-is-a-liminal-space]

same people that reblog shit about there being no morality in death or how their against punitive justice will say that killing the league was the best end for them. y'all hear how you sound, right?

[twistedappletree]

I really want to write a short post-canon story about Jin Ling having nightmares from all of the trauma he’s endured, so Lan Sizhui uses his spiritual energy and their connection to guard his dreams one night and ends up guiding Jin Ling through his sleep.

Meanwhile, everything they see in Jin Ling’s dreamscape is lush and vibrant and fantastical without even a hint of anxiety or darkness, and while Jin Ling assumes the entire dream is shaped by Lan Sizhui’s influence, Lan Sizhui is only blocking out Jin Ling’s intrusive thoughts—the rest is all of the light and wonder Jin Ling’s imagination conjures on its own, a glimpse into what his dreams would be like every night if he hadn’t suffered all that he did.

Oh no, bro just gave his identity away to EVERYONE

[purplespacekitty]

every now and then, the spirit of angsty rock musicals possesses me and I descend into a cycle of listening to, watching, acting out, talking about and singing Jesus Christ Superstar for about 2 weeks straight. during this time period, the falsettos of Ted Neeley and Ian Gillan, masterful ad libs of Carl Anderson, sorrowful balladic notes of Yvonne Elliman and all those who came before and after them consume my every waking thought. I become compelled to listen to every version of “Heaven On Their Minds” and “Gethsemane (I Only Want to Say)” I can find, even the ones recorded with shitty iPhone cameras and mics. my voice goes hoarse singing along with Judas’ lament over blood money and Simon’s overenthusiastic powerpoint to Jesus about how great he is. I obsess over how cunty Judas’, Herod’s, Caiaphas’ and Pilate’s outfits are by production. I weep over the kiss of betrayal as Judas and Jesus are separated for the last time. I learn new stuff about the singers and productions every time.

I soak up the inevitable poetic tragedy of it all and then I go back to our regularly scheduled programming.

my extremely corny and indulgent but satisfying and symbolic ideal scenario for Kazuya and Jin to fully Break The Cycle™️ would be for one of them to grab and save the other from falling off a great height. perhaps even a cliff.

sigh…..when you discover a new favorite author whose writing is so clearly of a niche variety judging from the average reviews coming from other readers….😓

HOW ABOUT 26? WHAT PETS YOUR PEEVE, MY FRIEND?

26: MY BIGGEST PET PEEVES

steeples my hands. looks away. where do i begin...

i feel like some of my graphic design pet peeves have some legitimate grounds to stand on (balance of contrast, mandatory excessive flashing in the name of aesthetic/mood lighting, small text, etc), so i will refrain from delving into that... let's see

i think i get a bit annoyed when i see people who willfully use the phrase "i'm the only one who understands [x]" because it feels like an immediate precursor to shut down any discussion you could have, and also just a bit arrogant?

i appreciate the sentiment when people say stuff like 'you're the only one who understands [x]!' but... i also want to take the time to say that i mostly enjoy talking about this subject with other people too? regardless of whether it's fictional characters/settings or a real phenomenon/issue, i don't see a point to me talking about it if i don't have other people who can engage with it with me. "i don't want to be the only person you look to for this perspective - i want to hear your thoughts & ideas too!" you know?

it just feels a bit sad seeing that phrase circulate too because in fictional contexts, many people take this as the only way to announce that they're a 'true' fan of some character/series. but i've always felt that it's really sweet to hear what other people think of the same characters you love so much; there are some people here that i've connected with through loving the dreamers and we had a lot of fun delving into all of those different hcs for how their interactions could go. others on here where i saw they enjoyed various yttd characters/dynamics that i already appreciated, and yet they took me to see a whole new perspective/depth to my appreciation! i loved bouncing ideas back and forth with these people - even if it was just through tags and such. and i'd be really sad if they felt like there wasn't a space for that because "the resident kai satou liker already exists, sorry!" like...? what do you expect? in a fan server where you're meant to share your love for this series, does the member limit cap off at the cast limit...? that's just silly.

i really feel like there's something valuable that plenty of people can bring to the table as long as you provide the space for them to, and it's just courtesy to let them know they'll be heard and respected even & especially with different interpretations. that unique view is what makes it fun to discuss & share!!!

jin hates heihachi more than kazuya

but dj hates kazuya more than heihachi
