Arc 13, Reflections

I'm exhausted. Jesus christ I'm exhausted.

That's my reflection.

Endpost

Okay, not really, but

Just...

Oh my god.

I mean, I gotta say props to the Undersiders and Travellers for making their attacks whittle the Nine down, makes their ultimate victory more believable when it comes, but still. I mean...

Parts feel very contrived, parts feel like they... aren't even going anywhere until suddenly everything goes everywhere? Like, at this point, I'm starting to wonder if I'm just looking for reasons to bitch and critique, sort of operating in bad faith, but...

like, yes, a story where all these disparate pieces come together right at the end is great, and that's sort of what he has going with this, and I know some of the stuff he has feeds into deeper long term themes and stuff but...

It doesn't feel like it really works for me. It feels like he keeps dropping plot threads and then picking them back up a bit later without really weaving them together right. Hard to articulate, and I don't... I feel like re-reading again and taking the time to articulate it. I am trying to get this done for better reasons than just 'reading' it.

Arc 13 isn't quite as annoying as Arc 12, perhaps because the protagonists start to push back and actually succeed at shit, but still. It's just...

and we have another arc of this.

And also, jesus christ, I need more Amy in this damnit.

There. Endpost.

Egghead from Stella's POV is very funny.

of all deancas episodes which one is your personal roman empire? the one that you keep thinking about for some reason?

(the despair goes without saying)

just like the concept of “oathbreaking” is insufficient to cover the Kingsguard’s moral transgressions so too is “kinslaying” inadequate to describe what was wrong with Theon’s murder of the miller’s boys!!!!!!!! the lines that society draws to permit or condemn behavior do not reflect the true weight of the deeds themselves!!!!!!!! it’s easy to see in westerosi society but what if it’s true in ours as well!!!!!

So there is this old manga series (Loveless by Yun Kouga) involving...cat people (have both cat and human ears). In this world, people lose their cat features (ears and tail) when they lose their virginity.

...

Are you guys picking up what I'm putting down? 😌

Yes. A world where losing your cat features means that you've just lost your virginity. That's it. That's the concept. Do with this idea as you will.

If anyone does anything with this, pls tag me, I will devour your fic/scenario/headcanon/art in a heartbeat 💖💖💖

Ellie hears a knock on her door, it's Kai. He's finished all his business and is now ready for whatever work with the graveyard there is waiting for him.

*She goes to open the door.

"Oh, hi. I did hear my brother sent you. Come in."

*She's definitely friendlier now. She welcomes Kai (@agent--shadow) inside.

One of the Delta V heads of staff likes to metagrudge against me by spawning a blunt and then deleting it as soon as I pick it up. This time, I coincidentally rolled antag as soon as the blunt disappeared.

sky islands are scary but he was sooooo brave about it - maybe even the bravest

Am I the only one concerned about the fact the opening credits for s4 of Black Butler includes very specific stuff that's not in the manga, like a giant fire person walking around? Who or what the heck is that?!? 🤔

Joan Of Arc being what she is in pop culture is funny when u realize she was a just French teenager from the Middle Ages with some kind of psychosis

My wish for 2024 is that the hunger games fandom finally just be nicer to Gale. I don’t need people to ship him with Katniss. It’s just, he’s such an interesting character, he was 17/18 when rebellion starting. He had to work in the same coal mines that killed his father. He witnessed the death of thousands of his people. He managed to rescue hundreds. He became a soldier & helped fight in the war. He was utilized to help build bombs. His desire for vengeance and freedom and revenge lead to him losing his closest and oldest friend. His bomb may have killed a girl who was like a sister to him. & he’ll never know for certain He’s such an interesting and tragic figure & it makes me sad to see him reduce to the punchline of a joke.
