#but i'm very curious now

[gradually-watermel0n]

the orv french translation is pretty good so far, but i have to say, one of the funniest choices they made is to have secretive plotter be called mysterious detractor instead,,, they really said that man does not plot shit, he's more of a shit-talker lmao

When talking about Boothill's drink order in 2.6, like. Hoyo could have just glossed it over and described it as "a few" or "several" drinks. They didn't bother to program in the actual glasses or anything- it's not like any of us were gonna count them and notice if they put in the wrong amount.

But they specifically chose the number seven, and if it IS just coincidence, it is a very very fun one.

Hsr is also known to make tarot card references- we had the online event shortly before Penacony's release, I'm pretty sure there's at least a couple simulated universe occurrences and a curio, and then Black Swan's Everything.

The Seven of Cups is a card about dreams and making choices when you have multiple options it front of you. It represents resisting self-deception and false dreams, and not letting yourself be charmed by hallucinations. It is a warning to carefully consider what is real vs what is not, which is very important in Penacony as a whole, being the land of sweet dreams, and it becomes relevant to Boothill later, when Primon starts to fuck with his head.

It can also represent someone who is "deep in their cups," which is a more polite way to refer to someone who uses alcohol as a coping mechanism to an unhealthy amount.

I hate that this could be a serious comment on Boothill being an alcoholic to cope with how much horrifying trauma he's experienced...and I have to discuss it looking at Primon's ridiculous fucking face fjkdslajldk

The overall message of the card is to stand fast, keep a clear head, and make your decision. Which suits Boothill beautifully even outside of this patch, since he is the very picture of ruthlessness and straightforwardness- he is able to see that bright clear line between action and result, and he follows it doggedly! Everything he does, he does wholeheartedly and decisively! And we see it especially well when he fights through the partial regression Primon leads him into!

Straight and clear and sure as a bullet, baby!!!

Yk what, I'll share my Burning Spice theory bc I like screaming into the void

Now that ppl are talking again about how his silhouette from the trailer doesn't match the pre-corruption design we were showed in game (picture bellow not mine), it's relevant, sooo...

rant bellow

My current theory is that the way we've been shown his backstory has been a little bit misinterpreted by many fans

The main thing is, the whole "Bored, I'm so bored" cutscene was specifically what Golden Cheese saw after looking at his painting. In his temple. His own place of residence.

How I'm interpreting it is that this is what he wanted people to see. To further push his image as the ruthless Great Destroyer, anyone who saw that painting would see the scene telling them that he destroyed it all just bc he felt like it

But both his iddle voice line ("the first kingdom I..." ) and what Golden Cheese says later imply that there's something more to the story

He couldn't protect his civilization, so like a child throwing a tantrum, he destroyed any remains of it. It wasn't JUST boredom, it was his negligence, incompetence, and his other flaws that caused the fall

But that's not the story he would ever want to show you.

So, going that route, it's possible that this what we've been shown through the painting is not actually his pre-corruption form - just the image he would to show any people who got too curious about his past and started snooping around. Especially since it's SUPER similar to how he looks right now, just kind of, "glammed up", yk?same thing as normal, but in more ceremonial attire than on the daily and obviously shown as super powerful, with even more weapons than usual. It seems like such an obvious idealized depiction, meant to inspire awe and fear in his subjects.

It's completely possible that they just chucked the designs from the trailer into the void. Yup. That's likely what happened at least partly

But still, idk I think it's funny for him to keep a painting telling his own tragic backstory in his own temple (that's technically currently like his house) if he didn't like what it was showing, so I do think it's possible that he tampered with it.

After all, he DOES have close ties with the Beast of Deceit, so who says he couldn't pick up a trick or two from his book

Robin is a sweet boy. A dog took his job. He sometimes wakes up in exploded wolf corpses. He's a normal human being, just like you and me.

I wonder how many people know that Maria's animals are the Four Symbols from Chinese/East Asian mythology. Didn't pick it up until the turtle appeared but when I tell you I screamed

[camellcat]

I had a dream that buffy died by being impaled on a sword during some big battle, and her spirit leaped out of her body and looked like a giant orange tiger made of flames. and spike was so devastated he followed her, and he also had a spirit for some reason and his was a lithe blue buck made of stars. and then their spirits intertwined as tiger-buffy pulled them up towards the heavens together. idk what any of this means but it was pretty cool

Hi hello I accidentally sent this to the wrong blog at first and caused mass hysteria but could I please ask for

jedtavius with a churro going at it lady and the tramp style pretty please with fire extinguisher paste on top

Oops 😬

1st: I accidentally made a 'they're big now' drawing (churros are too big for their small selves ok? They wouldn't be able to 'lady and the tramp' it)

2nd: why fire extinguisher paste? No (I did draw a blank person using a fire extinguisher on them tho)

The Extremely Serious and Scientific Legolas Fandom Hair Colour Poll:

What colour hair do you picture in your head for your personal mental image of Legolas of the Woodland Realm? (Not necessarily which one you think is more or less "canonical"; rather just what you see in your head when you're reading something.)

Ideally, you can also share when and how you were first exposed to Lord of the Rings in the tags or reblogs, and what you think most influenced your mental image.

No I'm not procrastinating from writing stuff, go away.

Are you telling me I can smell like Malleus?

Hetalia Poll Results pt 2: Character Who You'd Like To Be Your Boss

I think I'd like Japan or Spain to be my boss too. Prussia sounds great too, but even if he's nice, I think I'd just constantly feel a high pressure on me to be as capable as he is. Also, don't forget how strict he was with America!
