I will never like or forgive Luke mostly because he is the reason Castor is never gonna see their dad again

Like its assumed that Dionysus had a good relationship with his kids.

And yeah Castor will have Pollux in the future but they're never gonna see their dad again.

They're dead and Dionysus is deathless

They're dead and never gets to see the parent they loved because Luke hated his parent

For his first time editing, he deleted my entire chapter and instead wrote:

Wow, he can type with his ass. Skills.

April Fool's (but he really did type that)

Wait what the hell is happening on the current arc? It sounds like this comic year should be erased from the public consciousness.

Sure spoilers for Gotham war but Bruce was sleeping for a wee while bc of the fall out of night terrors he also lost a hand and bc of failsafe he's also not really himself rn bc of him unlocking his secret personality of zur - anyway catwoman calls everyone to a meeting to tell them what she's been up to which is that she's been scouting the goons from the other villains and training them so they only steal from the rich which obviously Bruce doesn't like so he starts going after the people selina has been training - most of the bats are kinda just on the sidelines but are more in-line with selina apart from Jason who is completely on selinas side (except for in his own solo Gotham war side story which I honestly don't know when it takes place bc in it selina and Jason fall out bc jason doesn't actually believe any of the goons are gonna change and they'll crawl back to joker and the rest eventually ) but in the main story Jason is very much on selinas side to the point where she's helping him distract Bruce - the first time Bruce and Jason fight the rest of the bats (dick Tim cass steph and duke) show up and Bruce beats quiet a few of them but is struggling a bit against Jason at the end until damian swoops in to save him - damian and Bruce retreat to the redbrick House (which has been Bruce's base basically since alfred died a few years back) the next morning a lawyer comes to the redbrick to tell Bruce someone has brought Wayne Manor which is surprising to Bruce so he rushes to the batcave to find out oh no vandal savage has brought Wayne Manor - Bruce and Jason end up fighting again when Jason is pulling another heist with a few of the goons but this time Bruce kidnaps Jason and injects him with something he claims it changes Jason personality so every time he feels adrenaline he will basically have a panic attack - dick at this point is looking for Jason but ends up finding damian Tim also shows up and damian gets handcuffed to a street lamp - batman shows up and starts fighting dick and Tim and dick finds out what Bruce did to Jason- Bruce ends up fleeing leaving damian behind which obviously really upsets damian - back with Jason selinas lieutenant shows up and reveals she's been vandals daughter this whole time and wants to know if Jason would be interested in immortality only for her to realise Jason's too far into his fear to really be of use to her so she leaves him alone in honestly one of the most heartbreaking panels I've ever seen

I've talked abt this with friends before, but the complete and utter lack of any romance in TCF is what really makes it special to me. And what greatly amuses me when reading the manhwa, as the artist made Cale so sexy for no reason 😂

But I can't stress enough how impossibly rare it is to find stories with no romance. Not just between the main characters, but between any characters *at all*. Everyone is in a static relationship, a widow, or single. Romance is a concept that is so alien to the plot, it may as well not exist. And I LOVE IT. Consider me mildly bias as an aro/ace, but it allows the plot to focus all of its attention on the story it wants to tell (namely, Cale driving his family insane).

And at this point? Introducing any kind of romance at all would undermine the entire plot in a way that would be irreparable. I've compared it to a simple office romcom having a zombie apocalypse c-plot halfway through the story. It'd change the story *completely*, lmao.

That being said, the vibes between Alberu and Cale are hysterical. I don't think it started out this way, but at this point? The author is absolutely aware of and playing with it. Alberu treats Cale like he's his exasperated elderly wife that's constantly dealing with her stubborn husband, it's fantastic.

And on that note, if there's romance in part 2? Don't tell me 😂

I am jumping off the walls rn

Im so mad i can't understand mandarin because Macaque and Wukong's conversation seemed really important, uuggghhhh T-T

I understood most of what was happening in the episode besides that part

And the animation isn't so bad! Reminds me of season one animation wise 👍

we talked a lot about how the incidents in delica absolutely broke ludger, but tbh, casey didnt come out of it unscathed either.

imagine how lonely you must have been to willingly travel to such a distant land just to see someone who was potentially like/similar to you. and when you thought you finally got a best friend who could understand you in a way that no one else could, they turned out to be something you would absolutely abhor with your entire existence. they gave no explanations. they bothered not with excuses. there wasnt even enough time for you to grieve what you just lost because they forced your hands to fight them in a death battle. without a word, they just simply vanished as if your friendship in the past few months meant absolutely nothing to them and you were left alone again, trying to navigate when and what went wrong all by yourself. there was a mix of burning hatred, betrayal, and sadness inside you, but there was no longer anyone for you to talk about it — no one that could understand it. you endured all those feelings for three years with no one to share while chasing after your old-best-friend-now-turned-archenemy for answers because they never gave you the closure you deserved.

even when you finally learned the truth, you realised that they had never trusted you nor your abilities enough to even consider working together. rather, they took on the most extreme measure and didnt hesitate to make you their biggest enemy all the while keeping all their troubles and pains to themselves. best friends, friends, friendly acquaintances, private detective and their client — it turned out that your relationship was neither of them. was it truly your one-sided assumption after all? or perhaps, was it because you failed them when you could have known better and done better? still wanting to keep believing that your companionship was once real, your guilt started gnawing on your conscience. not only you couldnt save them, but your inadequateness also doomed them to their worst fate possible.

then, the opportunity came. you finally mustered up all the courage to utter an apology. even though they acknowledged it, they made no intention to accept your peace offerings. they reminded, "our alliance is temporary". they stressed, "enemies are what we are destined to be". what a fool you were, trying to save a relationship that never existed. either that, or you had never truly been forgiven. they wanted nothing to do with you. they needed not saving by you. it wasnt a closure you wanted but its still a closure you got. in the end, you were left alone once more, with the knowledge of a possibility that you also might not be able to save them again this time.

Trying to finally finish catching up on Return of the Mount Hua Sect, and it is very hard to jump into the novel once you get past a certain chapter threshold just from the sheer amount of characters you've now forgotten abt. Idk who these ppl are!!!!

I was telling my friend, a big Star Wars fan, about how a lot of people compare Mozenrath to Kylo Ren in appearance. Really, that isn't all that they have in common.

They both:

Are obsessed with killing an orphaned and formally low-class hero from a desert area

Have abilities similar to telekinesis

Use crystals in their tools and weaponry (Lightsabers are often powered by specific crystals/stones)

Kill/Have killed their father/mentor figures and inherited a high governmental position afterwards

Speak in a faux-friendly manner most of the time

Are prone to violent and destructive tantrums when things go badly for them

Tend to switch between speaking calmly and yelling/attacking without much provocation

Were betrayed by an individual who previously worked for them

Was guided and then attacked by a dormant entity that promised them power

End up involved in a body-snatching plot

End up dying/close to death due to an overuse of their signature abilities

My friend said that it's concerning how much thought I put into this. He has no idea.
