POV when you’re about to correct someone who says “the ending for Odysseus is a tragedy”, but then realize that originally his story did, in fact, end with Aeschylus’s tragedy Psychagogoi, or Sophocles’s Odysseus Acanthoplex but we don’t talk about that one, where a heron smote him with its literal shit which rotted Odysseus’s old bald head and ended up killing him.
#odysseus#tagamemnon#aeschylus#greek mythology#still the wildest lore I’ve ever heard#ancient greek tragedy#psychagogoi#I honestly don’t know if this is better than the Telegony or worse#but anyways not a fan of either of them#lyculī crustula

Redesign of my dumb chicken OC
He’s not actually a Riders OC (despite being a bird and despite me being obsessed with that game lmao)- he’s actually more of a Forces character and is a medic in the Resistance. I’ll design his Resistance uniform at some point
Original design:
#art#OC tag#Sonic OC#Sonic fan character#Sonic the Hedgehog#Sonic fanart#Gauze#Gauze the Chicken#reference sheet#Lowkey considering calling him Gauze Star (His name is Gauze and he is a sussex star chicken) but for now he's just Gauze the Chicken#He's not specifically the Forces avatar/rookie either btw- he's just an OC based on the game#Also I am 100% going to have to simplify those shoes because drawing them once was already once too much lmao#I can't decide if he should be a speed or fly type. Chickens can't actually fly but neither can foxes so I'm not gonna worry about that lol#He has the green/hover wispon so he could use that to fly anyway

I love complex mother Talia.
She’s helped and took care of Jason when she didn’t have to. She molded him into something to spite Bruce. She embraces and supports Damian’s way of life. She shows up to sow internal conflict and make himself question himself.
She loves them but can’t be near them. they’re her babies yet the moment she got her hands on them they became weapons.
She protects them but harms them wither she means to or not. She’s their mom but their tormentor. She’s their savior yet has violence thrust upon them.
She’s better than Ra’s but she raised and healed them in an abusive environment. She knows this all too, it’s why she stays away afraid of causing harm. She can’t stay away loving her children more than anything.
Talia Al Ghul is a complex mother and i think that’s beautiful.
#batman#batfam#talia al ghul#jason todd#damian wayne#the song never love an anchor by the crane wives is her song#if your a Talia fan especially one that like exploring her complexity give it a listen#i would also like to say i don’t think she like ruined them or anything like she might think that but i don’t#Jason Todd became what he is today for a variety of reasons Talia only being one#Bruce and the joker being another#Damian unfortunately is doomed from the start just because of his parentage#even if Talia gave up like she originally did it probably would’ve got him either permanently killed or sucked in anyway#i do think in some ways her keeping him with her is a mercy on him just as it’s selfish for her#i have a lot of thoughts

slowly realizing more and more that the sm boycott effort is gonna amount to nothing in the end, and this is not the way we should be going about the riize situation.
i loved seunghan when he was in the group, and i am still an ot7 fan. but at a point, i think we need to think of how much of our time and energy we're willing to spend fighting for something that has such a small chance of actually happening. sm is gonna bounce back from any stock lost from the boycott because they are one of the big 3. they have like 4 of the biggest groups in kpop rn: nct, aespa, red velvet, riize. there's just no way either boycotting riize or boycotting all of sm would actually be detrimental enough to get a member who's been terminated from the group back in.
and while i don't agree with the ot6 fans who are being unreasonable, i think some ot7 fans have been just as bad. this fandom is so toxic and rotten, every day it just seems to get worse. and i don't like the narrative that most ot7 fans were spreading about ot6 kfans-- how they were just mad that seunghan was dating pre debut. that isn't why they were mad, they really didn't care about that. it's the fact that he took pictures of him with his possibly/alleged underage girlfriend (it's honestly bad enough with/without her being possible underage, which i don't have confirmation on) at what looks like a hotel and presumably sent it to his friends in a group chat (which was how it got leaked). that's why they wanted him out of the group.
personally, i don't believe that a member should get kicked out of a group or put on hiatus without a proper reason why. and seunghan's hiatus and termination is really messy. but there are valid reasons why kfans weren't too big on him. the problem is there have been many idols kicked out for things they didn't do, and others who have been caught doing really fucked up and nasty things and rightfully kicked out of the group, but it's hard to know which idols are innocent or not when there's no organization. and when we jump on a narrative train and blow something super big out of proportion, the facts and proper investigation of the situation gets lost in the mess of things.
what should have happened was things being properly investigated back in october 2023 before seunghan was ever put on hiatus, and a decision made from there whether to keep him in the group or kick him out based on that.
instead, we have the other 6 members who clearly want seunghan back tired of the state of everything (rightfully so), ot7 and ot6 fans fighting a full blown war every day without logical thinking, and misinformation being spread left and right. there's no organization, there's no firm confirmation on anything, all of this is just such a big mess.
now let me be clear IF it's true that there was anything suspicious going on between seunghan and his girlfriend, then i would obviously no longer support him. as it is, i'm not going to stop supporting him until there's firm evidence. i'm tired of kpop stans making rash decisions based on half truths instead of just being patient and waiting for the facts to come out. staying neutral during unclear situations is a valid stance to take. please let's all stop jumping to conclusions from both sides.
#zanna thinks ❀˖°#honestly everything in this situation is so messy it's hard to get any timeline or facts straight#but god idek what the boycott is gonna do at this point#like originally i was all for the boycott too#boycotts have been proven to work in the past#but only because they were organized#like the loona boycott#this boycott isn't organized and there isn't a super good reason for it either...#it's not effective enough to make a difference#sm is just too big#boycotting other sm groups really isn't gonna help either#i think we can all agree that kpop companies are horrible and we hate all of them#we don't want to support the awful companies#but there's also really no way to still support a group without also supporting the company#so in the end it's just messy#anyway i HOPE this all makes sense and i don't sound like a crazy ot6 or something 💀💀#i'm still ot7#but i also don't think idols are incapable of doing anything wrong#and there is a chance that seunghan did do something deserving of being kicked out#there's a chance any idol has done something deserving of that#but until there's evidence i'm not inclined to stop supporting prematurely#us as fans never know what's happening behind the scenes until actual reputable statements come out

crazy how viktor can't take a shit without people trying to claim that the shape of it is somehow him trying to brand himself with the talis family crest because being romantically obsessed with jayce is his whole personality now apparently.
#mine#league/arcane#arcane critical#sorryyyy in my hater era#actually i like the ship! more the league lore of them so i was sad they didn't follow that trajectory in s2 but still#one day i'm going to go off about how crazy it is that arcane's characterization of viktor removed basically all of his agency and autonomy#and personal convictions and etc etc#and left like 90% of his screentime as him acting either as a vessel to move jayce's (way more fleshed out) character arc forward#or as a vessel to provide a convenient villain for the ending so that they could ignore the core political themes of the premise#despite it making no sense for his character#like from how much of a presence viktor has in fan content you'd think he was the main goddamn character but he was genuinely so sidelined#compared to the ACTUAL main 4 (jinx vi cait and jayce) who he lags behind in screentime considerably#i guess if nothing else imagine how much more he'd be dominating every discussion about arcane if he was on par with them#the irresistible call of white twink sadboys to a fandom#anyway it makes me sad bc i looooved the daniil dankovsky tier obsessive freak qualities of og viktor's lore....#and not only did arcane retcon it and replace it BUT the fandom is also just focusing on him as like#obsessed with some guy and his own insecurities instead of having an actual ideology

thinking about the trope horror of assistants in the Daycare just straight up failing or quitting over and over and over again is as funny as it is tragic to me.
of course if you're waltzing on in there, rearranging the furniture and scolding the Robot who Literally Lives There it would cause problems. change is inevitable and always looming but would it not just get tiresome acclimatizing people to this role, just for them to quit anyway.
#ramblings#covering up my wip notes.#humoring the idea of a drabble. I'm inspired all the time and it's only the horrors of life that prevail me from sharing!#anyway would it genuinely ever be enough to convince either of them you see them as fully capable and autonomous while *also*-#getting on either of them for doing the things they're literally programmed for.#they're people. sure! they're people. they will try harder to be people to make everything easier. but they aren't people.#the contrast of the can pass as human “enough” until they Literally can't. until it's ever clear this is what they are.#the concept of pointing at them and saying you see that. you don't care. you care about them and all of those jagged programing edges.#to look at faults and flaws as not something to fix and repair. wretched sobbing. big fan!#kicks rocks. back to longing

A lot of hate for kanao is straight up misogyny because the way she is treated as some pick me due to her acting the way she does due to child abuse she went through while a character like giyuu who acts almost the same is always treated like some baby and people always add some made up shit like him being abused as a child or him doing self harm for some reason
#demon slayer#giyuu tomioka#kanao tsuyuri#kny#misogny#demon slayer fandom#I'm not the biggest fan of either of them but me not liking them has to do with the fact I relate to them#anyways#I need that rat gone when I'm trying to read anything that explores the child abuse sanemi went through

due to fic writing im trying to wrap my head around what suitcase might think of/how she might treat mephone4 after enough time has passed post-canon and a lot of my trains of thought are boiling down to It's Complicated.
on one hand, suitcase has had it the worst out of many in the show, and she's had to learn when to not take other's shit in order to get by. mephone has also put her on the spot a few times ("judge her accordingly", "pick your favorite friend!") so i imagine she holds that against him. thats not even accounting for The Reveal and her berating mephone4 for the way she was made (whether or not she was made to have hallucinations from the beginning isn't exactly as clear as say, tissues always being sick, at least to me??? but she was undeniably made to struggle). mephone created her to suffer the way she has and i don't imagine she likes the guy all that much post-canon.
on the other hand, she's more sympathetic towards him compared to others. she recognizes the gemories as traumatic memories, attempts to extend her sympathy to him in truth or flare (of course, she gets turned down), and she recognizes when he might be afraid to face those memories, or even cobs. all of this is before the reveal, but still. after that, shes the first to support the idea that he'd better go. plus i think about this list of parallels between them quite a lot.
this is all just off the top of my head though. i think she ultimately recognizes that mephone is more troubled and thats whats caused a lot of her problems with him, but also its not necessarily her responsibility to be kinder to him because of that, or to forgive him. she still tries to offer him kindness though, because, as always she genuinely believes in being kind to others and not going through things alone. never give up on anyone, after all.
#if anyone else has thoughts on this I'd like to hear them ..... fic aside this is fun to think about and toss around in my mind#fic scenario is mephone visiting inanimate island after enough time has passed for it to be okay for everyone#i think he'd like to see what everyone has built together .....#but im just trying to think of anyone he might have somewhat positive interactions with. besides bot#bot is a given. he was very kind to them!#but all ive got is microphone (smiled at his apology as its aligned with what she's said about apologizing)#and maybe pickle (“yknow what? i kinda forgive him”)#and also maybe still balloon (he was very kind to mephone during the iii finale but after the events of the ii2 finale this may be. changed)#but finalists are more interesting to think about cus oj already didnt like him too much. now i think he's definitely not a fan#taco believed she was a complete monster. i dont think finding out she was made to be like That is doing wonders for her self-image#i don't think knife is a fan of him either post-canon similarly to oj#and then cabby and silver spoon are. a little hard for me to envision?#but still#anyways. time for the real tags#inanimate insanity#mossball.txt#ii suitcase#ii mephone4

when i watched the one about silver i could hear all 11 sonilver shippers on the planet wailing in agony in the distance
#i have mixed feelings on what they said about sonic and silver's relationship personally ..#like to be clear ive never really shipped them anyway so i dont have that sort of bias going on here#and im not against the idea of them being like brothers either i think that has the potential to be really cute#it just feels kinda random for them to say that in an official thing? even in something thats not really canon like twitter takeovers#because i cant think of a time in the games or comics where their relationship has really come off that way.#feels like they just made that up on the spot#(which its fine if they wanna make up random little character traits on the spot but . maybe dont approach relationships that way)#and i say this as someone who does interpret a few sets of characters who are technically just friends as being like sibilngs#but whatever. its not that big a deal To Me but i imagine a lot of sonilver fans are upset rn. which is fair .#but im less unhappy with the fact that its sonic and silver specifically#and more just generally dont like the idea official media assigning random familial relationships that didnt exist before#and dont really have a real basis for them or feel like a natural development of the characters' existing dynamic#idk just doesnt feel like a good idea to me

Listening to The Well of Ascension:
Vin: Oh no, Elend saw me go full mistborn rager and kill 6 people! Hes going to think I'm disgusting and realize I'm not good enough for him. I have to pull away because he can't possibly want me, he just wants a mistborn knife.
Meanwhile, Elend: Oh my god. My girlfriend is so competent and effective and powerful! How could somebody like her ever love an incompetent idiot like me. I failed to keep my throne despite my best effort. How could she not react to that monumental failure? That must be why she is pulling away from me.
Me:....🤦♂️
#mistborn#mistborn era 1#mistborn era 1 spoilers#the well of ascension spoilers#vin#elend venture#if you caught the rager reference to gregor the overlander#high5 my collins fans#i did not know what I was getting into when i read that book#10/10 would recommend as a way to introduce kids to the horror of war#it was not a comfortable read for little me#but I still think about it when I think about the ethics of violence#anyway#not even brandon can get me to enjoy the tension of self distructive behavior in a relationship plots#i know its very realistic and it would feel weird for either of them to be perfect at relationshiping#its just never going to be a plot element that I seek out#my thoughts#talking to the void
