Two miners and two race cars journey, not to the surface, but down into the depths of Cybertron, uncovering more questions than answers.
Transformers One (Sorta?) AU but with the 86 crew instead. 😁
Story goes something like this: after the Iacon 5000 race, Blurr and Hot Rod enter the mines to meet 'the bots crazy enough to pull such a daring stunt' in person. Alas, Arcee informs them that Orion Pax and D-16 have not returned. Hot Rod wanders off, amazed and curious, before a hole suddenly opens, sending all three falling into the deeper levels. They encounter Springer, who works in the highly restricted energon refinery. As the rest figure out a way to evade arrest, Hot Rod is drawn deeper and deeper, hearing voices whispering warnings of an approaching, imminent darkness.
#i need a tag for all my tf feels#transformers one#Blurr and Hot Rod have cogs because they got cameo name drop on Iacon race list#Springer ended up a miner to balance out Arcee :p#I tried my best to adapt them to TF1 style bcos only Arcee had a canon design lol... T_T#i miss the tf movie team u_u

"Ooh right! The poison. The poison for Howe, the poison chosen especially to kill Howe. Howe's poison."
Fourth attack goes to the myth, the legend, the moment @greypetrel and it features my favorite enem- aquaintaces to "meh, maybe I'll end your life another day" couple; Alyra & Barb- my Hawke <3
She has a kill-count, his answer after knowing that was "eh, nobody is perfect" and they probably ended up raising the numbers.
When orange cat meets rottweiler, something goes either very wrong or very right, and I'm here for both things <3

"She's not so hot!"
"SHE'S HOT ENOUGH TO REPLACE YOU WHENEVER I WANT-"
This is still my favorite megastar exchange because it implies that Megatron only keeps starscream around because he's hot, not because of any actual combat or military releated reason, but because he's fucking eyecandy LMFAOOO
#g1 megatron be like: yea this seeker has a terrible personality#terrible voice#tries to kill me and overthrow me every 5 minutes#does not even respect me#but hes very sexy though#10/10 would bang if he didn't recharge with sharp daggers#I know this is technically a “headcanon” but i sincerely accept this as canon for the g1 verse because what else other explanation could#reasonably suffice lol#at least in other adaptations#they give reasons for Megatron keeping starscream through either amusement or because he does his job well outside the treachery#IN THIS ADAPTATION THEY DON'T EVEN SHOW THAT MEGATRONS AMUSED#Hes so annoyed at it and hates every second of it#yet s t i l l keeps him around like damn okay#but yea would explain their terrible domestic relationship#and megatrons terrible taste in mechs#was he ever planning to replace him with nightbird??#probably not and just said it as a threat#BUT THE FACT STARSCREAM TAKES IT SERIOUSLY LMAOO#Yea hes just as insane

I think if tpodg adaptations want to have a plausible way to 'redeem' Dorian or give him a more 'sympathetic' character arc after he murders Basil, then instead of forcing a love-interest on him, they should force him into Henry's role.
Since Dorian will def make into the 20th century, have him meet someone like him, someone stunningly beautiful, but hopelessly naïve, and then have him serve as their Henry. This gives you at least two options:
The cycle repeats itself- the new pretty person just becomes another Dorian. This maintains the cautionary tale of the original.
The new pretty person rejects Dorian's bullshit - This can be for any number of reasons, maybe the political happenings around them stop them from losing empathy (the 20th century was eventful to say the least), maybe they see the red flags, or (my personal favorite) they have a Basil-figure in their lives who they trust more than the weird ass twink spouting victorian shit. No matter the reason, Dorian will be forced to confront how painfully empty Henry's life was and, because he followed suit, his own life too. This is especially true if the new person has a Basil-figure; Dorian already knew Basil would have saved him, but this rubs salt into the wound and forces him to recognize his own hand in his downfall.
I think forcing Dorian to confront his worldview and then having him realize how awful it is creates a much better foundation for a redemption arc than introducing a new random love interest would.
Hetty Merton (and the subsequent figures who follow) cannot be the one who redeems him, because the whole point about her character is that she didn't matter. One good act and, therefore, one good person is not going to redeem Dorian nor really inspire change in him, otherwise Basil would have been enough.
#the picture of dorian gray#dorian gray#redemption arcs#adaptations#henry wotton#basil hallward#also people need to use more of the Dorian in the end of the book.#the one who realizes his life is empty and weakly tried to make amends#he's got pure sad pathetic middle-aged guy vibes that *need* to be explored#choco wrote a thing#analysis#?#uhhh maybe more of speculation lol#i had thoughts

Old piece I did for a discord challenge! Wanted to pay a bit of homage to my learning through Dasheng/JTTW media. The background I modeled after the famous One Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains painting and then I did a bunch of chronological studies of different jttw adaptations. In the end I had to cut down alot and mostly stuck with the adaptations I spent a lot of time watching and had a lot of fun piecing it all together!
#journey to the west#jttw#jttw sun wukong#西游记#qitian dasheng#sun wukong#i am unfortunately FAR too lazy to tag all the iterations but there's like 10#my original list had to be around like 30 it was kind of ridiculous lol#for fun though the right side are the adaptations that first fully introduced me to Dasheng the middle i tried to keep the more popular#classics and to the left held a bit more of the lesser known or popular adaptations from different countries like Alakazam the Great or the#Taiwanese film Fireball

Yes I like musicals yes I was kind of a theatre kid back in the day no I don’t particularly care about Wicked one way or the other. We exist
#you probably figured this about me from my.. everything#4 years of choir and i was in drama clubs and classes from when i was 8-16 lol#i wouldn’t have said i was Good; ever; at any point. never got a big role. just sort of used to subject people to my bad singing#as a recreational pursuit#but yeah. i think my issue with wicked is i tried to read the books first because that’s always my approach. if there is a book i’ll read it#and maguire’s writing style just scratched my brain wrong. like sandpaper#i tried and tried but i never got any further than like a quarter of the way into the first book#and if i’m being Completely honest i don’t even really care about the wizard of oz either#i wish someone had given judy garland a gun but like other than that.#so yeah. never seen the musical. don’t plan on seeing the movie but i feel like someone will drag me to it at some point#because most of my friends are also ex theatre kids#it’s probably a good story. there’s a lot about it that makes me think i’d potentially enjoy it. i like some of the songs!#it’s just whenever i see an adaptation i feel like i’m only getting half the story. so i want to read the books#but the books ~scratch my brain wrong~#i don’t even know if i still own them. i might have donated them. yes i bought ALL four; that’s how committed i was to trying to read them#i’m a fucking idiot#personal

i feel like the original series was red guy centered, the first season was for yellow guy, and i am BEGGING AND PRAYING that season 2 will be more about duck!! i will probably cry if anything happens to him though lol 💀 everytime writers break a comic relief character i just OUGSHGS.. it gets me.
h well I don't think you're wrong about that! Webseries being Red Guys time to shine, S1 of the TV show being for Yellow (esp the last two episodes I think? Even thought outside of that, he does get a lot of focus/he IS the one who talks to the audience the most directly). From what I remember hearing, the pilot was pretty Duck-centered.
But I think even if he GETS his big moment in the sun, so to speak, it's NOT going to be as emotional as the other twos. On top of him just not being a very um… let's say sentimental character, he's just not the make-you-cry type! It's just not him imo!
IDK, I operate under the opinion that… in his weird little head, the most important thing that he values over everything is keeping the three of them together. Both because he thinks of them as a weird little family AND because he really doesn't have anyone else outside of the trio. We also know from the interview, and you could maybe argue from the Family episode ( Who do you love?/Anyone who loves me back., I asked every member of my family who they loved the most, and they all said me ) that being loved is something that he actually values QUITE a bit! More than you would assume on first glance! He's weirdly upfront about it haha!
In that way, I imagine that if they were to TRY to pull something to put him in the spotlight in the way you're imagining (i.e. something emotional and focusing on his issues like they did with Yellow & Red) it would either focus on his desire to be loved OR his dedication to keeping the three of them together. But I would argue they both already did that in the Family episode AND put him through the worst case-scenario in regards to those more emotional aspects of his character ( here I think the worst case scenario to him is the other two rejecting him, harshly, unambiguously and to his face, multiple times and the three of them separating ). AND THE THING IS… THAT ALREADY HAPPENED! THAT DIDN'T BREAK HIM!
He had his little pout over it in his dress and was like FINE! I DON'T NEED THEM ANYWAYS! So, I really don't think that big "character-breaking" moment is coming. If the Family ep didn't get him I honest to God don't think there's anything else the house could throw at him that could get under his skin.
#I REALLY TRULY DO THINK HES JUST GONNA KEEP BEING SILLY AND GOOFY UNTIL THE END OF TIME#just forever in the BG being funny and having the best lines#like. worst case scenario came and went and he is both so adaptable AND deranged that nothing is going to come from it ever#ALSO sorry! i think he likes being in the house lol#dude who loves repetition and stagnation and who is a complete social failure gets trapped in a time loop house with two other people?#of COURSE he loves the routine and delusionally convinces himself that the other two love him!! come ON now!!!#my dhmis postings#like im trying to think of what kind of drama can even come from his specific issues and#its like what if he figures out the other two dont think of him the same way?#HE ALREADY DID!!!#and he pushed on it and pushed on it and didnt relent until they were like PHYSICALLY seperated.#then he just convinced himself that HE made the decision to drop THEM actually.#and when that didnt work he got sad. then got over it.#again. i think he would TRY to find new friends but like. socially he is SO SO fucked lol.#hes annoying. hes loud. he NEVER stops talking. hes super upfront and DOGSHIT at communicating at the same time#hes mean. hes abrasive. he doesnt understand social cues at ALL. he has NO filter. and he refuses to work on any of that because to him#NONE of that is a problem.#like he wouldnt be able to get new friends if he TRIED. he is so completely entirely incompatible to anyone outside the group#it makes him REALLY easy to hate and i get why a lot of ppl do. HELL i get why a lot of IN UNIVERSE charas HATE him

Hey, Owl House fans that are looking for other media to get into now that the show has ended: check out the Nevermoor series by Jessica Townsend!
The series is about a young girl named Morrigan Crow, who is whisked away to the magical city of Nevermoor the night she is supposed to die. Once there, she has to navigate her new home in the whimsical Hotel Deucalion, her education at the prestigious Wundrous Society, and the truth about the mysterious and powerful legacy she belongs to.
The series is categorized as middle grade/~YA, so it's similar in how it can appeal to an all-ages audience. Like The Owl House, it balances lighter moments with darker, more sinister revelations (and they're just getting started!). The author is queer herself and openly expresses her thoughts against + directly confronts bigotry and hatred while also being just an all-around wonderful person.
It contains some classic tropes such as a magical school, found family, and corrupt authority figures, all in unique and fresh ways. There is a diverse cast of characters, including a sapphic couple where one of them works at a magical library (sound familar...? 😉). There are several multi-dimensional antagonists, and they all work to challenge Morrigan and the story in their own unique ways. Also: there's a giant talking cat! Love that.
The series has an interesting magic system + worldbuilding, with tons of lore and history to dig your hands into and theorize if that's what you like. The character development is so fun and interesting as Morrigan and her friends grow up and find their place in the world. The world is so fleshed out that you can easily pick a minor side character or a location that's briefly mentioned, and extrapolate on how and where they fit into the story and themes as a whole.
There are three books out already, out of nine planned books. The fourth book Silverborn comes out in October, so there's plenty of time to get caught up until then! I highly recommend giving it a try.
#nevermoor#the owl house#toh#bolded key stuff for folks that might just want to skim through bc if you don't want to read it all then. fair lol#witch hat atelier is obvs the third piece of media for the trifecta but everyone and their mom recommends that already so#anyways the venn diagram of fans is a circle theres such an overlap#also i'm terrible at summarizing and pitching books but hopefully this gets across well enough. lol.#tried my best not to spoil stuff even in book 1 even tho the info is honestly easily accessible to learn online lol#my favorite nevermoor character has only said one single word so believe me when you can pinpoint a rando and make them your fave#there's just sooooo much to theorize abt that if anyones into that I promise that nevermoor has a treasure trove of stuff to go crazy about#if anyone wants to add onto this then feel free#also i should mention that a movie musical adaptation is in the works and i have. thoughts. but theres not much info abt it so.
