#absolutely not a witch

Highly specific poll time...

[terapsina]

Taking a moment to away from squeeing about Vidarkness...

Let's talk about Lorna Wu.

This woman loved her daughter so freaking much. Like, imagine being in her shoes, suffering under potentially centuries long generational curse that she knows is going to kill her.

Doing everything to make sure it doesn't get her daughter too.

I mean she literally crafted a spell out of a much much older very powerful different spell. Which is huge in itself.

But then. BUT THEN, she must have dedicated every bit of time and energy to make SURE that her spell song would become as famous as it possibly could be.

Not because she wanted to be a star... but because as long as someone, somewhere was playing that song her daughter would remain protected.

And I bet Alice felt forgotten, like she wasn't as important as being famous. Except that it turns out fame was just a means to an end, what mattared to Lorna - the only thing that mattered to Lorna - was saving her daughter.

And here Alice finally knows that.

I mostly think this poll is hilarious (and some people are taking it way, way too seriously) but it’s starting to get really weird how often people on the opposite side are dismissing Gundam — a giant of science fiction that remade a genre in its image — and quite literally lying about Suletta and Miorine. I’ve seen people claim they were canonically married to men, people claim the show’s ending was rewritten by interns, claim they never hugged, and other claims regarding them not being canon.

While Bandai and Kadokawa did censor one interview, and Bandai released an “open to interpretation” statement, these no longer hold true. Official material has henceforth referred to them as married. One instance of censorship and a statement they’ve clearly walked back on does not erase the fact that the show itself heavily emphasizes their wedding rings, refers to Miorine as Eri’s sister-in-law, and makes it abundantly clear that they are married.

“I knew I was going to make an epilogue, but it was a while before I decided upon the exact number of years that should pass in-between. The ending itself follows “The Tempest,” and depicts Suletta and Miorine getting married and becoming partners.”

- Hiroshi Kobayashi

They are completely and unambiguously canon, and arguably were never decanonized to begin with given the literal text of the show.

An addendum to this: I’ve also seen a strange dismissal of the history that G-Witch pulls from.

The original Gundam inspired Revolutionary Girl Utena, with Lalah Sune in particular (the creator of an iconic Gundam archetype) serving as the inspiration for Anthy Himemiya. Gundam has had a queer fanbase for decades, and has had gay characters (with Yoshiyuki Tomino himself confirming this) since the 1990s.

G-Witch draws from Gundam’s extensive, genre-shaking history, classics like Utena and Rose of Versailles, and Shakespeare’s The Tempest. It brings Gundam and Utena’s connection full circle, and is in conversation with every Gundam series that came before it.

It’s unfair to dismiss it as just some random show, or — as I’ve seen some do — credit its open queerness to the influence of completely unrelated American media, as if Japan is utterly devoid of gay people.

worship evolves with time. yes, the people who worshipped the gods back in the day had specific offerings to be given. but what is stopping you from giving modern offerings? things around your house? offerings shouldn't have to cost you a fortune. your deities aren't holding you at gunpoint to only receive what you can't easily get. they are a means of showing your love in your day-to-day. so yes!! give your deities candy bars! show them a silly little doodle of them in the corner of your notebook!! make a spotify playlist and play it for them!! dedicate a journal to them!! make a pinterest board and fill it with pins that remind you of them!! the important aspect of these offerings is that you are thinking about your deities. thinking about them and feeling love and devotion to them is a means of offering! you are devoting your energy in these acts!!

Hey!!!

Just wanna ask...does Cyn look like the DD's too or does she look like Tessa wearing a Tessa?considering the human drawings (might be a dumb ask idkk)

Nope! She will actually look like this without Tessa's skin in fact.

It's supposed to be based off from my concept design for the Absolute Solver (or AKA Solver Witch)

I wanted her horns or spider limb looking thingy on her head to shape the bow somehow and thought it was a pretty cute idea :D but this is just a brainstorm design atm

But the AS' design is still a wip atm since I'm planning to change the top part of the body a bit more As for Cyn wearing the Tessa skin suit, I still haven't came up with a proper or finalized design for it yet since it's gonna be hard to design especially when I made future Cyn to look like that tbh 😭

But for the people that has Solver powers like Yeva, Nori, Uzi and Doll, they will have little physical changes since their Solver is kinda a bit nerfed and not the full solver itself. But for Uzi on the other hand, yeah she might go through the same thing and will remain using glamour or aka illusions to make herself look like what she usually look like.

Basically MovieMusical!Glinda during No One Mourns The Wicked

Glinda, trying her best to get the fuck out of here: 🎶She diiiieeeeddd aaaallooooonneee🎶

Munchkins with the sorry excuse of an Elphaba wood statue: Hey! Hey Glinda! 😃

Glinda: 🎶She dieeeddd al-🎶 AH WHAT THE FU- *clears throat to sunshine voice* Uhhh what is that?

Munchkin 1: It's the Wicked Witch Of The West! 😃

Munchkin 2: We want to really celebrate that she's gone! 😃

Glinda, internally: They did my girl dirty what the fuck

Glinda: ...I see...

Munchkin 3: So we were hoping you can burn this! 😃

Glinda:

Glinda:

Glinda: You want me to what now?

Munchkin 1, handing Glinda the torch: Yeah! Cause you're good! And goodness knows no one mourns the wicked! 😃

Glinda, holding the torch:

Glinda, internally: Oh I'm going to hell.

Glinda: *voice crack* Of course.

Glinda, internally: This is an abomination of a statue so it isn't so insane for me to burn their very wrong horrid perception of Elphie but fuck I feel like burning myself with it.

Glinda, internally while tossing the torch: Fuck fuck fuck fuck

Munchkins: 🎶NO ONE MOURNS THE WICKED-🎶

Glinda, who literally just wanted to go the fuck home and cry in the darkest, farthest corner of her room for at least two hours:

Glinda: Ahhh I hate myself.
