Actually the most hilarious reveal of this chapter was the fact that Feng had no reason to de-age Rip a whole 15 years to heal him of his injuries in L100 (other than to make himself younger obvs). That man did it primarily because he thought it would be funny and you can’t change my mind. Do you think anyone else knew the 15 years wasn’t necessary or did everyone kinda say yeah 15 years sounds about right to heal a guy and never questioned it.

Prince Charming does TOO have a personality in the first Cinderella movie ☹️

he’s sassy (visibly yawned at a ball thrown in his honor while women were being introduced to him)

he’s impulsive (immediately ran to Cinderella once he saw her)

he’s free-spirited (rides horses as shown by his royal portrait, spent the entire ball dancing with one person, moved hell and earth to find her)

he’s stupid! (didn’t consider that multiple women could fit into the slipper, the absurdity of which is pointed out in the movie by the Duke and the King)

he’s romantic (sang a love song duet and took his lady love for a moonlit walk through the garden and gazed lovingly at her through a fountain’s reflection)

he’s impulsive (decided he would marry Cinderella the moment he found her)

he’s respectful (if you listen closely while Jacques and Gus are trying to get the key out of Lady Tremaine’s pocket, the Duke reads a section in the scroll that states the prince will marry the maiden who’s foot fits the slipper only if she agrees, and will even beg and plead on bended knee for her hand if he must)

he’s PATHETIC in love! (Cinderella: oh, it’s midnight! 😳😰 Prince: why, yes. so it is🥰😍)

he’s rebellious: (the king alludes to him shirking his responsibilities as prince/heir by not taking a wife immediately)

he’s a dreamer: (a quote from the king, talking about his son’s “silly, romantic ideas”)

that’s MY sweet, sappy, sassy, wild and free son of Aphrodite and I don’t want anyone to be mean to him😭

I initially found it strange that we Lucy Gray doesn’t seem too affected by what happened in the games, she says through music that she’s not going to let the capitol take anything from her and she’s not going to let the games change her or break her. Lucy Gray is a survivor, Because of this you could say that she’s accepted that she did what she had to to survive and she tried to do the least harm as she possibly could. However I find it hard to believe she never got angry or upset about what they put her and the others through, that she never thought about her friend jessup and the other tributes that she got to know, who died horrible deaths.

But then I realised WHY we don’t get to see her feel anything about the games and it’s victims. It’s because we only see the story through Coryo’s POV and he lacks the capacity for empathy. It’s that inability to empathise with people that stops us from witnessing Lucy Gray’s trauma and grief. He doesn’t think about what she went through, he never asks her about how she feels about it or even about how she’s feeling in general. Lucy Gray never confides in him or brings up the games herself because (perhaps unconsciously) she knows he won’t understand or truly empathise and therefore, he wouldn’t be the person she’d choose talk to about how she’s feeling.

We don’t see her trauma because snow never cared about her trauma, he only focuses on how they fell in love during the games, not the horrors of it or what the girl he believes he loves had to go through, despite having a small taste himself of what it would have been like for Lucy during the games despite having a front row seat when he went into the arena and had to kill a person to get out alive, but he lacks the capacity to empathise. Despite his front row seat to Lucy Gray’s trauma as well as the injustices, and poor quality of life that she faces in district 12.

to expand on my tags on the previous post i think allura really enjoys combat training and fighting because it’s a way to move her body and expel energy when she’s antsy. plus the skills she’s building are useful in keeping her friends and family safe, which gives her peace of mind

but i think she also enjoys dance, as it is also a very physical outlet for her, but taps into the side of her that wants to be pretty and graceful and beautiful. and growing up as a princess with expectation of inheriting rule over an entire planet she saw her own desires for beauty and art and play as childish and unnecessary. that feeling would no doubt multiply tenfold after waking up and spearheading a war effort. but she still wants to dance, and one day there will be enough peace and relaxation where she can dance without worry

It's always so weird to come down from the biology heavens to see what the average person believes about animals, plants, ecosystems, just the world around them. I don't even mean things that one simply doesn't know because they've never been told or things that are confusing, I'm talking about people who genuinely do not see insects as animals. What are you saying. Every time I see a crawling or fluttering little guy I know that little guy has motivations and drive to fulfill those motivations. There are gears turning in their head! They are perceiving this world and they are drawing conclusions, they are conscious. And yet it's still a whole thing if various bugs of the world feel pain or if they are simply Instinct Machines that are Not Truly Aware of Anything At All????? Help!!!!!! How can you look at a little guy and think he is just the macroscopic animal version of a virus

🙃 Regular reminder that while Hozier has amazing love songs, he is ALSO very outspoken about his leftist politics, specifically anti-fascism, anti-racism, reproductive rights, Palestinian rights and more.

Take Me To Church and Foreigner’s God are scathing critiques of organized religion, specifically the Catholic Church.

Moment’s Silence is about oral sex but it’s ALSO about how that specific sexual act is often distorted to a show of power rather than that of love.

Nina Cried Power is an homage to various civil rights activists from the US and Ireland and a call to follow their path.

Be specifically criticizes anti-migrant policies and Trump and his ilk.

Jackboot Jump is about the global wave of fascism.

Swan Upon Leda is about reproductive rights and the violent colonial oppression of Ireland and Palestine.

Eat Your Young is about the ruinous way the 1%/capitalism prioritizes short-term profit over everything else to the detriment of the youth/99%.

Butchered Tongue is about Irish and other indigenous languages being suppressed and erased by imperial powers.

If any of the above surprised you, please, please delve deeper into Hozier’s music, you’re missing such an important part of his work.

percy immediately apologizing to luke after he hurts him even though he is literally being betrayed because his fatal flaw is loyalty and he cannot fathom hurting the people he cares about… meanwhile luke turning around and hitting percy back without hesitation… i feel sick

“What was that for?” Viktor asked softly. Jayce smiled wider, tilting his forehead against Viktor’s. “I was happy, I guess."
