New sona just dropped! Just a silly little creachur from the Abyss.

Meet Vinu the Starweaver, currently pictured with less ᛁᚾᚲᛟᛗᛈᚱᛖᚺᛖ than usual.

I'm typing out some hella crazy long kaeya lore thing right now (im not even halfway done and i kinda fell asleep on it coz I was tired), but it led me to review older Kaeya lore things, and then i got hit with the "oh, another one for the kaeya thinking/talking about fate thing. wow" in a surprising location (well, not too surprising considering Fate lives rent free in Kaeya's head)

its in the full description of Kaeya's Sailwind Shadow skin.

" Different people live in different ways. A thief will not bear the blade of a knight, and a traditional knight will not sneak out a hidden dagger to hurt someone.

If the characters in the story don't abide by such rules, then the story has betrayed the roles dictated by fate."

That's...interesting. What are you trying to say, Kaeya? Do you actually dare challenge your role in this story?... Isn't he already betraying both of his roles?

But yeah, it's the same old idea about Kaeya's dilemma. He keeps mentioning that he wants to go against fate, but he also feels hopeless because how could he challenge something inevitable? I'm actually more impressed by the fact that he can't stop thinking about it...

...It's as if he is still ACTIVELY thinking about what to do for when fate finally catches up with him...

Well, Mona did say he has a huge decision to make...

I honestly want to do a deepdive on the skin's full description. There are so many keypoints in it that really delighted me when I read them again (not so delightful for Kaeya who was being all melancholic over a kid asking a single question, but very delightful for me- a Kaeyangst and Kaelore enjoyer)

what if i just started posting all my toxic t4t yaoi here. what then. is this anything

[seventh-district]

i’ve just finished season one of TMA, and being someone who’s okay with spoilers is fun because it means i can peruse the wiki and scroll through the tag and i get to become privy to all sorts of weird, wonderful, halfway-out-of-context information that i get to look forward to understanding in the future

like. what do you mean Leitner’s in the tunnels?

what do you mean Jon eats the extinguished sun??

what do you mean it’s spelled Gerard Keay???

[virtues-end]

I feel like this has been asked before, but i can't seem to find it, but every vessel had "stats" right?, which brings me to my question:

Could you maybe tell us vaguely what the stats are? (if i remember this all correctly)

Also a question regarding the color of the sigils that we pick in the beginning, do they mean something, do they influence something?

Yes, there are stats tied to each helspawn! :)

The game doesn't make it explicitly clear (by design, lol) but there are three stats: brawn, dexterity, and cunning. Throughout the game, certain choices might increase one of these.

Sylvans start with +2 brawn and +1 dexterity, barghests start with +2 dexterity and +1 cunning, nokken start with +2 cunning and +1 dexterity, and basilisks receive 1 point in each.

Your weapon style also adds points: the greatsword adds +2 brawn and +1 dexterity, dual blades +2 dexterity and +1 cunning, and shield and flail adds +2 cunning and +1 brawn.

As for the helvling's markings, their colour doesn't really influence the story besides various different flavour texts. ^^

Oh… that animation project for Lackadaisy’s bearing fruit via a pilot?

Oof. I…might stay away. Kidding, I took a peek at it because curiosity does get the Cat, and…hmngh. No, I’ve never necessarily imagined precise voices for these characters, but that’s because I can’t imagine any voice fitting them. That snatch of Zib—no, that’s not him, surely. That I’ve felt similarly about the snatches I’ve heard of everyone else means the problem is with me, not them.

(Especially since I had the same reaction to hearing that an animated adaptation of Bones was in the works. )

I guess—it boils down to—an attitude that “no adaptation of Lackadaisy can really do it justice.”

This is, I must emphasize, untrue. Tracy Butler has been closely following + giving input for this animated passion project for months (surely over a year; there’s been more posts about it than comic updates—not complaining, because the comic is so richly detailed). The comics are so detailed, and the staging so fine; that one instinctively wonder if the blanks are worth rolling in.

(Yes, they can, I might emphasize; there is an appeal to watching an interpretation of how each character moves, moreso with a cast with such distinct characters as is Lackadaisy’s.)

If nothing else, the pilot release was a timely reminder for me to check for new Lackadaisy updates. None since 2020 (wait, was it really 2020 when Epithet was released? Thought it was sooner)?

Pah. I’ve waited far longer for new content in other circumstances. Shall simply be happy if and when a new update comes.

(If everything else, I’d be so remiss not to celebrate that this passion project actually did come to fruition? Congratulations to all the animators and storyboardists and in-betweeners and so on.)

Oh, wow, the pilot has six million views? I’m absolved. Congrats on its success.

Have you ever put your faves in a completely unrelated settings and plots with the same characters that hopefully still retain their OG personalities?xD

Cause you are hyping your daydream and then realize literally no one will understand what the heck are you even talking about xD

They really should not have ads for podcasts that interview manifestation coaches right before The Magnus Archives

Does anybody else cry themselves to sleep thinking about this?

The other half of this nonsense

[magnusbae]

I spoke of it in the past and I'll speak about it again. Likes here do not work the same way as they do on other platforms. Liking something will not truly promote this post anywhere other than a very conditional period of filtering the search by popularity and even that is unreliable.

What I don't see people speak enough about is that no one expects you to reblog things you don't enjoy / want more of. (and those who do are entitled and guilt tripping, so not worth speaking of anyways.)

The heart of this whole issue is that if you want to see more of something you must reblog it. Nothing less, nothing more.

The condition is always what you want. However you do have to understand that if you do want something and you don't stand behind it for whatever reason—then you, simply put, will not get more of it.

Content creators are people who work for free for your entertainment. What fandom seems to be forgetting is that they're still just people and are part of the fandom, too. They do post so other people will see and enjoy it. The only payment for their free labor is passing the things you like along for other people to see and decide if they like it too.

Leaving a 'like' on it, will not bring you more of the content you enjoy, since chances are that after long enough of only likes, the person will quit. Tumblr culture is built upon the sharing of things you enjoy, not the silent consumption in the darkness. If you're self conscious, open a side blog and post it there, or perhaps reflect upon the people you interact with and their judgment of you as a person, I don't know :)

Still, bottom line is, it's not about guilt tripping or forcing you to reblog things you don't want or like— it's about encouraging you to understand that you are part of a community, and you are part of an ecosystem, and you do have the power to influence what content gets created— you do! By putting your reblogs where your heart is :)
