#but the joke was mostly on us

[livingforthehopeofitall02]

my grievances with tua s4 (and I’ll sure I’ll keep editing in more)

-wtf was even jennifer there for and how did ben die

-ofc lila and ben too, like he looks like an absolute child and I honestly thought we were going for a fun in laws bonding, what a way to ruin what could’ve been a completely platonic playful familial relationship

-nobody acting like themselves, what happened to klaus what is with the complete switch up before and after getting his powers back, neither felt true to his character

-five abandoning his family, giving zero shits about anyone when in fact we’ve established season after season that he’ll literally fuck with time and space to save them and keep them safe even when they are useless and ingrates bcs that’s how family is sometimes

-sloane where is she, why is luther so…uncaring (?) about the whole thing

-the dad is established to be trash and wasn’t he a mechanical alien in the last season, why are we trying to do a resolution arc between victor and him, im sure vic doesn’t care anymore he’s a shit dad let’s move on

-the explanation about why they have to end themselves was stupid, what do you mean there is only supposed to be one original timeline. And this coming from our brilliant assassin five (just the cherry on top if the cake was made of shit) How are they reversing the best trope in sci fi of there being multiple timelines and universes and absolutely ruining it

-the sad and tragic ending is not the problem the problem is how we got there. Is the underlying message supposed to be that the characters that we rooted for are so fucked up and wrong in their inherent existence that the only, ONLY resolution is to erase them completely

-the apocalypse happening one after he other could’ve been such a good metaphor of repeating toxic cycles with a good resolution this season but no we had to fuck it all up

-the random details added in this season are so disconnected from the older ones they don’t make sense— the nobody remembering ben’s death thing, klaus literally talked to him as a ghost, ghost ben would’ve fucking told him

I would’ve even accepted a tragic unending loop where they bennifer blow up or become the squid or something which was new up with the death of ben in the original timeline in season in and we end up at the beginning with five stuck in the apocalypse world and everyone has their memory erased and we end up in season one’s timeline

half the people in here are throwing out better plots that what we got

this could’ve been so good

the writing was trash this season

So I was doing some math, and I THINK Skully is almost as tall as Malleus without his horns

I think the main reference to his height is Epel being surprised they're the same age because he's taller than Sebek, yes? which I find interesting, considering Jade and Malleus -- two of the tallest guys in the main cast -- are also there. and, since I've never been one to not think waaaay too much about the absolute stupidest minutiae about fictional characters, I see two possibilities:

one is that Epel is extremely good at eyeballing heights (I actually do feel like he could be? like. I'd believe he can estimate someone's height fairly accurately by calculating based on the life stages of an apple tree, or how many apples tall they are, or something else apple-related like that.) and Scully does, perhaps, fall into that narrow margin between Sebek and Jade in height.

OR two, out of the three certified Tall Guys there, Sebek is Epel's main frame of reference because he's the only one he's had any real interaction with for, let's be fair, pretty obvious reasons.

SO in conclusion, we still have no concrete answers and will probably have to wait until next year when we get his card profile, alas alas. 😔

someone asked for my interpretations of the characters prismo and scarab wouldve made at the end of fionna and cake,

so here we have Sīdus the Fallen star and The Carmine Cavalier (also regarded as Carma (like karma))

im proud of scarabs character name simply cause cavalier used as an adjective can mean someone who doesnt care for others. also really proud of his sickle thing- its like the mandibles of a beetle but it acts like a guiding weapon rather than attacking, so he can just hook people and completely displace their movements but it can also be used for punching like brass knuckles

As per usual, it’s DP crossover with (probably) DC, although you could probably adjust it for other fandoms

ANYWAYS

A little kid and his mother are trick or treating in another city, perhaps at some kind of event rather than knocking on doors, and the kid is dressed as Phantom. It’s very adorable, with his little ghost-shaped bucket and clearly homemade and already stained costume—listen, white only works if you can just fly over street grime or phase it out of your clothes—and his slightly I’ll fitting wig. The kid is SO happy to be out and about dressed as his favorite, and maybe even showed it off to Phantom back in Amity Park before his family left.

The hero, insert whoever you wish here, is probably in civvies and just enjoying the event. The kid, meanwhile, is so glad when people ask who he is so he can explain, and so- the hero gets to hear ALL ABOUT the local town hero who is probably pretty small time despite the kid’s clearly exaggerated stories. The hero certainly never heard of him, but the kid’s mom confirms that Phantom really was the town hero, despite some mixed reviews of the poor guy.

“Did you manage to show him your costume?” the hero asks.

“Yeah! We went down to the cemetery to leave flowers and I got to show him my costume.”

Wait. Cemetery? Maybe it was part of theme, because Phantom had to be named that for a reason, but… it sounded like…

The kid ignores the suddenly VERY still hero and instead turns to his mom. “Momma, do you think we should bring him candy? He doesn’t get to trick or treat like we do, and I can work super hard to get him a bunch!”

The kid’s mom just smiles. “We could, but maybe we should bring him something homemade. I bet he’d like something more filling, teen boys like him have a hollow leg.”

The kid wrinkles his nose. “Like Vernie with the pizza bagels?”

“Like your cousin, yes. We can make some cinnamon rolls and take them to his memorial, maybe bring some of the apples from your grandpa’s garden…”

The hero is pretty much forgotten as the two-part family wanders off, not quite intentionally forgetting the hero is there so much as the hero somewhat accidentally ended the conversation when they just froze and didn’t ask anything further.

Not that the hero didn’t want to. But they’d learn something very serious.

One—there was a small town hero they’d never heard of. Two—that hero was apparently a teen. Third—most pressingly, the teen hero was both beloved enough to have kids dressing up as him and dead enough to have a grave.

This… might require some phone calls.

It's interesting how consistent Kuusuke's disdain towards his grandparents is. Especially since it's never really acknowledged. Here's a compilation: • Preventing them from learning about Kusuo's powers

• Angering Kumagoro by attempting to take the money from the car

• Playing around with him and causing him to faint

• Including him in the GBG plan

• Telling Kumi to keep using the machine despite knowing the side effects and how much she cares for her appearance

• Almost causing their divorce

• Messing with Kumagoro again

[Kuusuke: Well then, sorry grandpa, but could you wait alone for a bit? I'll come pick you up right away. Kuusuke: Ah, but my high-performance drone isn't working well...And it'd be tough for dad to go back and forth…]

Hi it's just to let you know that the official romanization of Revaan's name is Raverne ! Also they have romanized Baul's name to Baur !

Twst coming back at us again with the least expected romanization! thank you everybody (oh god my inbox) (no it's great, I literally asked for this and the reactions have been INCREDIBLE, thank you all!)

I do like Raverne though, I think it's got a nice fancy sound to it! (I had kinda suspected it was going to be an R instead of an L, so the fact that it's SO close to Laverne except for that is hilarious to me personally.) and Dragoneye Duke is honestly probably the best translation for his title, I wasn't envying the localizers that one. :') Baur instead of Baul I was NOT expecting, but in retrospect I think his name's supposed to be a reference to the Bauru crocodile, so that actually makes way more sense!

someone else also said Meleanor has become Maleanor, which is the REALLY weird one to me, because I was so surprised it was written as Mel instead of Mal in the first place?! oh god no I can't decide which one I like better. 😭 (I wonder if they might change it to Mal...they have made romanization changes before) (like I remember House of Distraction being corrected to House of Destruction in Playful Land) (I did check and she's still Mel for now, but I dunno, they might Mal her up and some point and save me from having to make a decision about which one to use) (HECK I CAN'T DECIDE)

uhhhh thank you for letting me ramble about anime names, let's just say MONOGRAMMED SWEATERS FOR EVERYONE
