Okay so they claiming Baelon died from a "burst belly" was actually the Otto killing him (on the orders of the maesters) and then lying on the reason he died, but didn't GRRM qualified that Baelon died from an appendix rupture, wouldn't that mean he died naturally? Unless they think GRRM was just giving the mesters a lie to draw people away from the truth, but normally GRRM just gives really vague hints like saying "it will come up later" or something.
EDIT: Wait not the maesters, they said later on that Otto may have doen it, I think on the orders

re: @thatscarletflycatcher : your recent reply: I'm astonished at how people talk about and think about teenagers. They are so smart, so sharp, so inquisitive... so bold about asking questions and pushing norms and boundaries (and sometimes, your limit. Lol).... and so many of them still retain that purity of heart that desires to mourn with those who mourn and rejoice with those who rejoice. They're trying so hard. They sense your love for them and they are delighted by the warmth of love, I think. They flourish so much when they feel like they are resting securely in your love without having to earn it. They're dancing in the halls. They're panicking over exams. They're sharing snacks with each other and decorating lockers with HAPPY BIRTHDAY signs. I wasn't expecting to enjoy working with teens so much but I do. I do so, so much.

I find the headcanon that Frank wasn't his biggest fan at first hilarious.

Lowkey hyperfixating now and I’ve come to the devastating conclusion that Jacob the main character of Water For Elephants… doesn’t really have a character arc
#or like#flaws#which is#bad?#like oh no that’s why every other character feels so much more 3 dimensional than him oops#so that puts a damper on my general opinion of the show#like oh no the book is missing the arc for its main character#I do wonder now if he had more of an arc in the book or the movie#but like#oh no the main character doesn’t have any character flaws#and like all the other characters are great marlena and august and fantastic#jacob is. a guy. he’s polish and he’s a vet and he’s sad. though honestly the sadness could have been more integrated into his character#like all the other characters got arcs at least a little#but jacob doesn’t really change throughout the story#which makes sense as to my thoughts yesterday that his and August’s relationship was under developed partially bc we really didn’t get#enough time seeing august actually coming to like jacob before he decides they’re besties nowbut also bc jacob is not very developed#in general#no actually he does have one flaw I can think of and that’s being Really Bad at pretending he and Marlena are not totally in love with each#other but that’s not like something he has to overcome it just kind of makes him look stupid cause the goal is not ‘get better at hiding#his feelings’ It’s ultimately ‘get away from august’ which like maybe that gets in the way of it but he doesn’t ever overcome his kinda#stupidity bc it’s not actually that plot relevant it just makes him seem annoying when he does that#I think I was too harsh in my opinion of grant gustin as jacob bc I’ve now realized it’s also the book’s fault#I’m hyperfixating and whenever I see a show I always have a lot of thoughts and now I’m hyperfixating in said show#still absolutely incredible though it’s definitely a new favorite but that part could be better#water for elephants#w4e#water for elephants musical#the heir speaks

hands down the worst thing about being an artist is other people constantly going 'I'm not gonna bother doing this fun rewarding thing-- least of all with you-- because you are so much better at it that it ruins it for me'

// Just looked at my upcoming work schedule, and it looks like I'll be training our new agent for the whole week and potentially beyond... meaning I, unfortunately, won't be able to be on Tumblr while at work. So, today's going to be a draft and inbox-focused day so I can have somewhat of a queue to rely on in the coming days. Discord is on the backburner until I feel I've made decent progress.

// Gonna try soemthing new to get myself to post more consistently, gonna call it meta Mondays where I do my best to post (1) piece of headcanon, character study, or analysis for a random muse each week. So here’s the first one:
For my stockmans/mutant mayhem muses I think each of em have a different way and means of approaching and interacting with humans post movie. The most obvious means is how they find their own people through their different hobbies and interests. (Example being: Wingnut showing up to various manga book clubs, mondo at skateparks, Ray at local gigs and parties to preform at, etc)
What differs I think is how easily they end up seeking out and then interacting with said humans, I guess? Mondo’s pretty outgoing and isn’t afraid of humans at all, but others like Wingnut and Ray will be more cautious around humans and strangers they don’t know.
Still, Out of all the stockmans I imagine Leatherhead’s the most … reclusive, by a long margin. It’s not that they HATE or fear humans necessarily, but they prefer to be by their own company and barely trust anyone. Let alone- the whole of New York who are just figuring out that humans exist. They would rather be holed up at home and trying to sew together a multi purpose tarp tent, honestly.

seriously i couldn’t find a single milkshake that didn’t have severe head-body mismatch. i’ve seen it occur on some of the other strawberry shortcake fillies to various degrees but it doesn’t seem to be as common with them. even cookie dough doesn’t seem to get it nearly as bad despite being the next lightest color. it puts such a damper on these otherwise cute toys. why did they have to make their heads out of that material.

another billions analysis thing is like so yeah while it's like "hmm let's think about power" but then doesn't really do that, what's there to offset that is "but let's think about what these people with billions(tm) are doing because of their like personal feelings & lives & whatever" and the personal feelings are the thrilling journey of s1 men following the compass of their ego & the way their personal lives matter at all beyond this is about their Relationships. except the relationships are also actually about the power billions isn't really thinking about because the ones billions focuses on involve this Fealty where one person does whatever and the other is just stuck with it. sure they might air some unhappiness sometimes, but if it's not punished or ignored from the start anyway, it'll still end up so inconsequential that it's as though it never happened. and what's left to offset the way that can't mean anything if you again take it for granted that of course people are just locked into such relationships & best they can do is fix it from the inside or embrace it as is? is "do you think this character is a winner among losers & you want to see them pwn everyone & do whatever they want forever" & if you like all the media the creators do like
#or you can watch the show wrong but where billions was never planning to allow taylor to Disrupt these crucial dynamics#sure they can kind of break with axe but never with wendy!#who can also kind of break with axe & chuck but also not really at all! worst Cost for anyone: divorce. & even then it's not that bad#it's like whenever things just conclude with a reverent nod to like Nuclear Family subsection Fealty To Parent or To Cishet Spouse#like where invoking that serves as a resolution to all the shit going on throughout the actual plot / themes of the material#oh well thank god we have the nuclear family. wendy's on emergency call for her kids & sometimes she will pat their head as they silently#disappear out of frame but that's all we need to be so glad for her she has her nightmare family dinners forever#does taylor have Okay I Guess weekly friend dinners? who cares.#and i mean from there which relationships matter are also just determined by which ones the show cares about in particular#same as which it believes is obviously an Epic Man. or a girlboss. which is primarily wendy sorry! as the wife who will epic divorce you#winston billions#kind of putting a damper on thinking about how Feelings & Personal Motivations play into things#when once again it's precluded by the power dynamics of characters who get to do whatever they want no consequence ever#just going through motions like oh no wendy feels she was in the wrong in s4? no consequence by the end of it & that just Goes Away#how does anything have anything to do with wendy's motivations in s7#the real shining example of how really nothing holds up upon any earnest consideration is everything going on with axe & wendy#those relevant Motivations and it's like okay so wendy should want axe dead right? Wrong. it's peak beautiful romance time now#and anytime there's a more actually balanced relationship where nobody just does whatever they want no consequence?#billions is only interested if a s1 epic winner is involved & even then it'll only get so much material simply as fun little bonus flair#all that stuff about chuck's dad always being around to ruin his life? well he'll just keep doing that forever i guess#and this isn't some ''oh no'' moment like ah the parent always means well! and what's the child gonna do? escape this? lol

turns out miyazaki is considering adaptating elden ring into a movie 👀 https://wwwDOTpsuDOTcom/news/elden-ring-creator-says-theres-interest-in-adapting-fromsoftwares-fantasy-epic/
huh! I'd certainly be curious as to how they would pull that off. In my mind, much of the appeal to fromsoft games is that investigative journalism style of lore discovery - something pretty specific to a video game. That said, it's not like they are lacking on material to make a solid movie/show out of.
(Honestly my dream project would be an animated series made by the team that made the Castlevania show, but i digress)
