Day 48. The Lightning Temple Remains

Well, that source of history’s lost forever, but at least the gibdos are shrivelling in the sun, the ghosts are put to rest, and Riju found a cool rock.

(“I put the future in your hands. Do better than us, little thunder bird.”)

that moment in tfone. but shattered glass. whoever sold the idea of canonising alternate universes??? actual genius.

[reineyday]

every time i get on the revalink train, i end up thinking about the way revali says, "feel free to thank me now," and when link doesnt reply and the golden motes start to take link away for teleportation, he says, "or... never mind, just go." and he tells him to go way softer than his usual pompous tone. turns his back so he doesn't have to watch link leave as he says link's job isn't finished and then, "the princess," and revali PAUSES before he continues, "has been waiting an awful long time."

like, here is a haughty bird who got sooooo riled up bc he felt like link never acknowledged him, and then even after giving link the gift of his gale, revali doesn't get the thanks he wants, and instead of needling link about it like he might when they were all still alive and together, he just says never mind.

never mind, you never replied to me anyways (no matter how much i showed off or showed you up).

never mind, there are more important things to do (save the castle like you saved vah medoh--to avenge me?--and succeed where i failed).

never mind, the princess is waiting (and you were always too busy following after her to acknowledge me).

never mind, i'm already dead anyways. (what can i even do about any of this now?)

just go.

(you're already leaving. like always, she's already taking you.)

and then he reminds link of the princess in such a pointed manner that it's so easy to read into it. the princess... has been kept waiting--the princess is who you've always waited on, the princess is who we all died for, the princess might still be alive where i'm not. the princess tried her best, is still trying her best, and you have to go and meet her there because we cannot, and that has always been bigger than any feelings i might have ever held, any feelings i wanted to draw from you, any accolades i might have lauded or spurned, any reaction i might have gotten.

it's been 100 years, i can wait a little longer to help you (both of you) finish the job before going. guess i was wrong about... how lucky he would be.

revali's dead and he's still thinking about how much he thinks about link and feels the need to admit to himself (and to medoh) that he was wrong like aaahhhHHH i rotate his cutscenes over and over in my head like rotisserie chicken (lol).

okay hear me out- SAGAU but with sea monster Foul Legacy

sea monster Foul Legacy who smells the golden blood in the water during one of his hunts, hastily swimming to catch the body floating in the sea. he's never seen you in person before, but oh- you're so familiar.

he brings you to shore, away from any cities- oh no, you're bleeding- and carefully pats your wounds with seagrass, fretting as he waits for you to wake up. what should he do- you're obviously the Creator, there's no doubt about it- why in the world are you so hurt?! why were you sinking into the sea, why hasn't Teyvat been celebrating your return, why-

Legacy chitters in surprise when you shift, letting out a few coughs and cracking open your eyes. with a strangled scream you shoot upright and try to scoot away from him, only for Legacy to lower his head and whine sadly. of course you wouldn't want to be around him, he's a monster. but your movements eventually slow, breathing heavily as the cuts sting and sear, and after a moment he tentatively dabs more seagrass against the injuries, trying to show that he means no harm. when he's sure that you won't struggle and accidentally hurt yourself, Legacy gently nudges you into a sitting position with a gentle trill.

he has to hold himself back from just staring in awe. his god, the Creator, is right here in front of him! but he can see the way you shiver, the gleaming blood staining your skin- you need care, not worship. so Foul Legacy shifts closer, gently settling his scaled tail over your legs and pressing his cheek against yours, feeling how you shudder in his arms like you've been running and screaming for years. you stiffen at first but quickly melt into his tender embrace, sniffing as relieved, exhausted tears begin to drip down your cheeks.

on that night, a god finally found an ocean of safety to call their own.

the way people are trying so, so hard to constantly defend caitlyn after a member of a community hers violently and horrifically oppressed took a stand is insane. you can understand a character’s actions while not personally agreeing with it, and i’ve seen people agree with caitlyn’s increasingly brutal and cruel actions; such as weaponizing the grey against the zaunites immediately after she gained knowledge of its existence, directly undoing the work of the woman she wants to avenge. the death of cassandra was horrific, yes. caitlyn blames herself for allowing her affection toward vi to cause her to not take the shot. she’s grieving and she’s losing herself. but it is made very explicitly clear that she’s in the wrong. it’s suppose to be uncomfortable because she is in the wrong, because she is very actively losing herself. it’s to show how a privileged person can very easily fall into this fascist, disturbing mindset after experiencing a fraction of their society’s oppressed community endures. her language, her physical body language, it’s all very intentional. she’s calling the very people she wanted to help animals, she’s weaponizing the ability to breath against them, she’s willing take a risk and shoot a child. we’re not supposed to look at her actions and think she’s in the right. she’s losing herself to her grief and need to kill jinx and she’s wrong. that’s, like, the whole point of this part of her arc.

just found out that my dad read the secret history in '95 when he was a young man biking through europe to paris with his best friend

didnt know he was cool like that

[krytus]

the secret to watching good media is knowing if it trends on social media. its bad. unless its actually good. theres nuance but also not really.

[rednite-dork]

Omfg your poor MC...it would be even worse if he had a habit of rolling on top of her in his sleep too LMAO

HE TOTALLY WOULD

He would be a horrible space hoarder. He'd corner MC in his sleep to the edge of the bed and just FLOP - roll on top of her and use her as a pillow. It's not his fault if MC is a good pillow.

Conquered by the Teal King! Felt inspired by this piece 🎄👑 hope you have a lovely rest of the year and all hail Nosy!

The Christmas tree swayed slightly under the enthusiastic climbing of the gleaming teal menace perched atop its highest branch, but the little Niffler paid no mind. His belly pouch was stuffed to bursting with baubles, tinsel clung to him like a cape, and his teal fur twinkled with an almost angelic glow, though the mischievous grin splitting his beak suggested anything but heavenly intentions.

His chest puffed out with pride as he raised his little arms in triumph, basking in his own magnificence. Then, with all the majesty he could muster, Nosy threw his head back and let out the loudest honk he could manage. The sound echoed through the castle halls, startling owls and shaking dust from ancient rafters. Wiggling his tail in delight, he sent a final spray of glitter through the air.

This, Nosy thought with a smug look, is what Christmas was meant to look like.

Pure chaos! Pure glory! Pure Nosy!

SPOILERS FOR THE GRANDEST GAME!!!!!!

Everyone is talking about how Grayson was thinking with his dick in tgg, but what about Rohan?

Savannah would literally breathe and he'd be like "Does she know what she's doing to me"

I felt like I was interrupting something during the scene when he was brushing her hair

Like, let's keep it YA, shall we?

This man was losing his shit every time they got too close

[queer-trashmouth]

It’s so ridiculous to me that so many people are like ‘yeah I bought blood libel simulator and put $70 in the pocket of a violent transphobe but I also donated to trans charities!!!’ Ok. U could’ve done that w/out buying the game. It’s clear that you care more about playing a buggy mediocre game than the marginalized folks you use to give yourself ally points

more oscarina hcs pretty please

cont. of these

you ask, i deliver hehe (i typed out five hcs only for tumblr to yeet me out of the app... you guys better appreciate these)

oscarina is very comfortable with pda despite not being together for long. people are baffled (they would be down right shocked if they would ever find out that these two are behaving like this after two weeks of actual dating) <- spoiler: they bottled up their feelings for almost half a year, so when they finally confess their feelings to each other, so much and yet so little changes

sabrina bribes sofia with chocolate to keep mark from trying to reign in oscar's chaos

sabrina's favorite teammate of oscar is definitely max. she's maxcar nr 1 supporter

they're both lightweights. and once they're tipsy, not even drunk, they are very touchy... and bold with each other

sabrina once asked oscar what kind of nails she should get, expecting just a color as answer. but oscar got so detailed on the nail design, she now always asks him what kind of nails she should get (having three sisters definitely helped here). now, her nails often clash with her outfits, but she doesn't care (fucking simp)

they make a collab with their merch. they have to restock it five times because the demand is so high

oscar gets sabrina that rb sponsorship

sabrina moves in with oscar (in switzerland) very quickly after they're no longer fake dating and actually dating. people of course are going bonkers when they realize it

nicole LOVES sabrina. even more after her son finally gets his shit together and stops pretending he doesn't have feelings for her. she is so ready to plan the wedding but still holds back, since she doesn't want to intervene with the relationship

sabrina's family also loves oscar, because he's the perfect boyfriend. no joke, he's truly the gentleman of modern times. when people are saying he's the dream boyfriend, they're right

they get a snake first, then some years later a maine coon because sabrina will never get over the one time oscar carried a stray cat in his arms (she wanted to bite his biceps), then a wolf dog and then another maine coon because one wasn't enough

sabrina likes to let the world know that oscar is very good at going down on her (with those cheeky nonsense outro lyrics) and that she's a very happy woman. just because. as if everything else she's done not already have been enough
