#and I gotta take like breaks after it

Welcome back to “listening to TMA S5 for the first time”, Im ur host and god.

MAG 165: Revolutions

HE SAID THE THING. “Ceaseless Watcher, turn your gaze upon this wretched thing” HE SAID THE THING!!! Since the start of these posts, I’ve seen that quote SO MUCH and I finally got to hear it. Guys. Do you know how annoying it was that I was in PUBLIC?? I couldn’t say shit!!

I’m very happy not Sasha is dead. Bye girl! I hate you. You took such a great girl from the world.

MAG 166: The Worms

I love Martin. He is SO DOWN for all this smiting. I wish Helen was allowed to tag along like guys come on :(( she’s just a silly girl.

Ah Annabelle. What’s your game here? I wish I knew. I wish I still had my 78 pages of notes but alas, I have school. She says she wants to help them. I don’t know with what but I can’t help but think about how The Web was one of the few entities who didn’t perform a ritual.

MAG 167: Curiosity

Gertrude Robinson. God. You are such a badass but maybe you should get like a nice nap. Emma Harvey was a dick. But understandable to a degree. Also!! There was a mention of the Sandman who featured in MAG 98! Also! Michael!

“Yes Martin you are my reason” oh god. These guys are so in love it makes me sick

MAG 168: Roots

Out of all the avatars, I think Oliver Banks is the coolest. He just…does his thing. Like I’d love to hang out with him. Oliver. My man. Come on

“I’m not going to kill a man just because you’re jealous”

“Why not?!”

I think Martin’s character development was the best. Like his support for Jons smiting is amazing. I’m also really interested in Oliver’s “report”. He was very thorough. I guess the entities fear dying as much as humans. Makes sense.

Okay. That’s everything. Sorry for the slow ass posts, these episodes are heavy and school is a pain 😭 I see the next episode is related to The Desolation. Fun fact, The Desolation terrifies me. So. We’ll see how that goes. I hope we’ll see Jude! I think she’s interesting and y’know she’s not dead yet. Until next time!

New official art of Rhaegar Athur and 2 women (looks like ashara and lyanna) is so funny to me because Arthur's and Ashara are just like 🧍‍♂��� 🧍‍♀️ when your boss is seducing a 15 year old and you have to listen to him play wonderwall (medieval bard version) while a castle crumbles around you

Thinking about Orchid and her connection to my take on Gender (because this was meant to be about her and the Crew but it just devolved into a character analysis kinda??? More trauma-dumping maybe???) This is very much an oc/personal rant so feel free to ignore it 🫡

So, Orchid started off as a character I didn't really think much of (hear me out this is going to be relevant) because I wanted to add a 'girl' character but didn't know what to *do* with her, y'know? She was always going to be the strongest one there, she had the odds stacked in her favor with her parents. She was always going to be the gloomy side-character to match Reset's energy. But I think she's gone through every stage of Generic Woman I could possibly find.

At first she was angry and abrasive (think Fell!Sans) where every other word was a curse and she was likely to throw the first punch then laugh as she kicks her enemy while they're down. This was when Reset was a cartoonishly self-centered villain whose goal was simply to prove others wrong. Then Orchid became a sort of sisterly figure. This was short-lived, but she was the one comforting people who Reset would torment, but would ultimately follow his orders, because at this point he was actually a danger and sadistic. And then there was the phase where the story mellowed out and she became the token Goth Girl who, yes she was strong, but was heavy on the 'whatever' energy. Then there was her Era of deep self-loathing and anxiety about her worth that held her back and made her a much more timid and meek character who would only lash out on occasion.

Now, Orchid is the best of those iterations I've written yet. She's calm, level-headed, and a natural leader. Her father raised those traits into her. But she's very reactive, and can be silly, and when she's comfortable it's likely that air of importance transforms into something more comfortable and familiar. She laughs loudly and grins wide, she likes loud video-games but loves to read in the quiet. She's extremely disciplined, and normally no one can get through her tough exterior besides her best friend, Reset. She does what she does for her own enjoyment, sure, but she's thought of every angle and makes her choice to help Reset and control the others with her whole chest. She still worries she won't live up to her invisible expectations, and that and her loyalty are her two driving forces.

I know that Orchid is important to me because she's the longest-running female oc I've had. I have a rough relationship with womanhood/girlhood and I know looking back that Orchid recieved every ounce of my distaste for being a woman that I could shovel into her. That never made her less of a character, she was actually always one of my favorites, and rarely was she a 'punching bag oc'. I just... projected onto her a lot. And she's a good sign of how I've learned who I am. I've decided that my own femininity is something I could live without. I'd rather not associate myself with it, and I'd like to leave it in my past, focusing on a future where I'm not tied down with any gender roles or expectations. That won't happen, but I've come to terms with it myself. Orchid though? I figured out through her that I don't have to hate women characters. My own distaste for my circumstances doesn't mean I have to push it onto my characters (on God I've never expressed anything rude to actual people, that'd be rude as hell and uncalled for, but I have a bad habit of disliking fictional women in media). So, Orchid is a well-roubded character finally. She has motivations abd goals and a *lot* more depth than I ever expected her to. She's happy with being a woman, she's content. She's not treated differently for it in unfair ways by those she cares about, so she doesn't mind it. She likes to wear pretty outfits and lets Reset add bows to her ribbons. She doesn't let being a woman hold her back in the slightest.

So, yeah. Orchid is one of my babies. If I ever leave this Fandom behind for good, she's one that's coming with (Ichor, Orchid, and Pretender all have human designs I can use elsewhere lol-) but in the meantime I'll just rotate her around in my brain for a while longer.

If I'm right, she's been with me for nearly 5-6 years and I went through a *lot* with her as an outlet. So, she's kinda just like an old stuffed animal. A lil ripped, matted fur, maybe a stain or two, but there's a story there and that makes it important beyond belief.

So far i really dont care for the isha plotline ill be honest. It comes out of left field and feels fan-service-y. And this whole “found family uwu” direction with two of the most destructive characters in the show, and tying that to a literal child, is not my favorite.

HOPEFULLY the direction goes in the way of jinx fucking up with isha and realizing why vi did what she did and it being a contextualization thing. Because if it stays as jinx magically being well-adjusted and caring while vi falls apart and loses everything… ugh

DOCTOBER '24 ⸺ 「 11 / 31 * IT WORKS 」

22:06

November 12, 1955

Three blinding flashes of light.

Three earth-shaking tremors that shake him to his very core. 

Three sonic booms that lash out so fiercely, they pierce through the fabric of space and time.

Instinct tells him to raise his hand and shield his eyes from what he’s about to witness. This knowledge will blind you—you have already seen too much, you should not see this too. Awe, responsibility, and scientific curiosity stay that hand—I must make sure Marty makes it back to his own time—and keep his attention focused on the road as the temporal displacement occurs. 

It all happens in the span of a single one of Emmett's frantic heartbeats and when everything is finally over, when an eerie, artificial silence settles into the empty spaces around him, he isn't entirely sure what's happening.

Doubt burrows its way into his mind, carried on the long shadows cast by the brilliant burst of light. Something has gone wrong, the connecting hook wasn’t properly attached to the Flux Capacitor and the power overloaded the Time Vehicle’s delicate and complex circuitry, and Marty—

As he rises to his feet, slightly unsteady, Emmett blinks the spots from his vision and looks around for any sign that his worst fears have been made reality.

There's nothing there.

There’s nothing and Emmett has never been so grateful for that in his life. No crash, no great ball of fire–however, interestingly, the Time Vehicle did leave thin fire trails during displacement that were rapidly dying out–and, most importantly, no Marty. 

Emmett lets out a breath he hadn’t realised he’d been holding to the relief of his burning lungs.

The Time Machine and Marty are back where they belong and, for the moment, Emmett allows himself to get lost in the excitement of a successful experiment and ignore the now-surfacing thoughts born of its conclusion and a mind coming down off the adrenaline, laser-focused on one singular thought.

No, there will be time for that later. Thirty years' worth of time.

A wide grin splits his face and he can’t find himself to care if it makes him look certifiably insane as he races down the street in Marty’s temporal shadow, shouting his enthusiasm to the sky. 

On the wire, the connecting hook holds strong, waving its goodbyes to a spectre.

Everything had been fine.

Everything will be fine; he’ll see to that, whatever it takes.

See you in the future, kid.

me trying to hype myself up to posting online again despite The Horror

[woundedheartwithin]

Back on my meds, making a damn decent paycheck despite how many days I had to take off this month, my mom’s feeling better now that she’s home and we’ve figured everything out, our neighbor’s gonna build us a wheelchair ramp for cheap, and my dad miiiiiiiiight be buying a new car as we speak 🤞 (my mom just can’t get into the truck anymore, and she hasn’t wanted to drive her two seater for a while now, so we’re trading it for something practical). Things are finally going fairly well, all things considered ❤️

charlie kelly - season 16

[radioisntdead]

listening to ASMR again, WHY DO THEY KEEP KILLING OFF MY FAMILY??? WHAT DID THEY DO?? THEY COULD BE ALIVE? THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE PLOT YOU JUST KILLED THEM OFF FOR FUN???

[a-side-character]

(TW: brief but graphic descriptions of body horror)

I always feel a bit weird listening to podcasts in public, but sitting here on my college campus while the sounds of someone's liquefied remains sloshing out of the cryogenic storage chamber he was forced into are playing through my earbuds is a whole other level.

Like, damn Red Valley, a less vague warning would have been nice. I can handle horror but got damn.

Never in my life have I ever witnessed a group of people make such a series of horribly bad decisions as I did just now watching episode 15 of neverafter

[alltheoutsinfreeeee]

is there any magical girl anime still out there that doesn't have any fanservice? Shows like Precure, Cardcaptor Sakura or Madoka?

And if there isn't, are there at least any shows where the fanservice isn't with elementary school girls?
