I bought more paperbacks.
(Also I got the Peter F. Hamilton books entirely based on enjoying Pandora's Star like twenty years ago and completely managed to not realize there's another book between The Dreaming Void and The Evolutionary Void.)

Prosper, Hewn City historian and diplomat. Pre-Shatter, there were two Beastclan societies -- one Talonok and one Longneck -- that built most of the "ruins" of the Sunbeam Ruins. Unfortunately, this area was one of the hardest hit by the first appearance of dragons, being the birthplace of the Emperors. The Talonok, who lived mostly north of the river, never really regained a presence in the area until modern times, drawn in by the newer metropolis of Lanternlea. But south of the river, the ancient Longneck society still maintains a presence in the Hewn City, despite the cursed remains of early Fourth Age magic cast there and the Shade it attracts to this day. Prosper acts as a liaison between local governments inside the City and the councils in Lanternlea, and is generally an enthusiast of exploring the ruin's mysteries. His frequent exposure to Shade remnants seems to have dulled the yellow of his eyes.
(Accent: False Blessing by Sorai)
#flight rising#fr lore is like. so easy to mold in my brain like play-doh#i just noticed on the world map that Lanternlea Port is described as a 'quaint coastal village'#no that's the capital! you put the capital star on that one. that's a big ol city sorry i dont make the rules#dragon share

i love doing character analysis for minthara because shes such a wonderful hypocrite. she has a lot of deeply reactionary political views but she makes it openly known shes willing to suspend just about all of them because youve become more important to her than nearly anything else. deeply opinionated but never pushes you to do something you wont throw your weight behind, and if your her partner shell suspend all the "survival of the fittest" cultural upbringing she finds so much sense and empowerment in to make an exception for you specifically and no one else.
i love her
#bg3#bg3 minthara#minthara#minthara baenre#she 100% doesnt care that flights regularly violate ACA standards until they damage YOUR wheelchair specifically#and then she is an absolute NIGHTMARE pulling out every citation in the book and as soon as you get home shes making phone calls for 3 days#she wont fight for anyone else but she WILL fight tooth and nail for YOUR accomodations ANNND compensation for emotional damage on top#ur neighborhood is about to get every award for disability accessibility ur city can hand out. minthy will NOT settle for anything less

After Danny exposed Vlad and his corrupt dealings, the older halfa got the last laugh by getting his blacklists from all engineering jobs. Desperate for a job Danny ends up applying for a personal assistant position and he actually gets it. It only takes him a week to see how detached Bruce Wayne is from his own company. AND he has his 16 year old son running it as CEO!? No way is he letting that slide.
#dp x dc#dc x dp#hyper prompts#there's nowhere bruce can go that danny can't find him#his pa is the one person other than alfred that he's actually terrified of#also i imagine the rest of danny's family quickly follows him to gotham#jazz naturally begins working at arkham#a reformed dan opens up a restaurant in crime alley that doubles as a soup kitchen#and ellie helps him out while also doing a bunch of odd jobs around the city#whatever flights her fancy for the day#the bats don't know whether to put them on some sort of supervillain watchlist#or just watch the chaos unfold#it is hilarious seeing bruce squirm though

One of the right-wing bugaboos I've never understood was the disdain they had against cities. It's not the city's fault they got filled up with leftists and homeless, the communities within were broken up and scattered to the winds as a result of policy. Cities don't inherently corrupt people it's actually the other way around
#if cities bad then why does Singapore have one of the cleanest cities in the world?#cities are just a representation of the people within#the policies that led to white flight in the 40's and 50's are what ruined your cities

Three seasons in and my man STILL has absolutely no fucking idea where he's going. Very anime of him. Very magical girl. Dare I say demure?
#Invincible#Invincible Spoilers#Invin17#Mark Grayson#Mandar Liveblogs#Implied he's been here multiple times and he still has NO IDEA how to get there.#Like that makes sense! He's going based off pinpricks ffs.#You think he even knows what city is which. Or do you reckon he just goes to them in one big flight and doesn't know
