Makima reports directly to the chief cabinet secretary. Ordinary devil hunters aren't authorized to know which devils she has contracts with ☆

"Kaidan Alenko is boring" WRONG. Kaidan Alenko is one of THEE characters of all time. He's Canadian, he's Schrodinger's man of colour, he's DOWN to fuck and still didn't manage to figure out that he's bisexual until his thirties, he killed a man as a teenager and almost caused a diplomatic meltdown bc of it, his tits are bigger than yours, he's constantly getting migraines, he has autism but doesn't know it AND he glows. What more could you want

That summer, Atlas spent most weekends at the beach with Asher and his family. Feeling part of such a loving family unit has been more healing than he expected.

Asher’s niece, Spencer, has even started referring to him as “Uncle Asses” ...which immediately made her his favorite.

Atlas finally moved into a new apartment, which he loooooves! Unsurprisingly, he still spends most of his time in his room glued to his computer.

While he’s not sure if/when he’ll ever be ready to live with Asher, he did give him a giant key to his new place.

And they celebrated...

...a lot

As the summer came to a close, everyone gathered for Kiyoshi and Kaori’s wedding.

It was a beautiful outdoor event, that went flawlessly, of course... and I'm not at all considering Phoenix and Dawn either elope or never get married just so I don't have to deal with the stress of a wedding... 😅

But everyone had fun, and isn't that what really matters?

Prev // Next

Bonus under the cut:

The wedding reception got a little more interesting once they all moved inside for drinks and dancing...

Dawn was so impressed by Phoenix's speech that she picked him up and spun him around the room.

Then Phoenix decided it would be a grand idea to light up a cigar on the dance floor... no one was too impressed, I'll be honest.

And Kiyoshi's tea got stuck to his phone, but that didn't stop him from trying to check his e-mail... much to the annoyance of his new wife. 😒

lmfao it turns out Firmament used AI tools to modulate human voiceovers and muss up some textures and now kickstarter backers are malding and asking for their money back. and news outlets are treating those requests like they aren't ridiculous

saw someone on twitter say "one of the main characters in a loki show should have been thor odinson, not some random Sylvie or Mobius.

...... It's like a written law"

wdyt do you agree

I don't think it was necessary to make Thor a main character in a Loki show, the same way it WOULD be possible to throw together a Thor movie without having Loki be a main focus.

The issue comes in the quality of the narrative itself, and writing that if evidently without intention to care for (whichever) main character's importance will not work out. Neither the Loki series nor Thor 4 cared about the arc, motivations, history, or continuity of the titular characters beyond trying to make the media marketable.

Overall messaging can add a layer to the impact a story will have. Musical score can be a bonus way to control tone or tie a story together. Supporting cast can be vital to tell a good story. Prioritising their presence over anyone's (especially Loki's) characterisation is what the Loki series suffered from, not that other, original-adjacent characters were there.

Thinking a little on how one of Season 1-3 Adrien's biggest traits was being rebellious against his father.

He's first introduced as going against Gabriel's wishes and enrolling himself in school. He's constantly sneaking out to go hang with his friends. He even teaches Kagami to do the same thing.

And then in Season 4-5 his whole thing is about being obedient and too scared to even try going against Gabriel to the point that even when he /is/ Magically controlled into obeying despite wanting to think for himself, no one at all questions why he's suddenly like this.

What I wanted to do last night: finish SB part 6

What I did instead: wrote 1200 words of a brand new wip that’s already too involved for its own good, and tacked a few hundred onto a February ficlet

😒🤦🏻‍♀️

So since my brain seems to be running away to New Wipville, here’s a list of a few shiny new working titles as well as a few oldies. If any pique your interest, drop ‘em in my inbox and I’ll spill some beans:

Survivor Blues Part 6: Table Scraps

Without the Rain

Apricity

Flat Circle, Twisted Game

Recall Part 2: What the F*ck is Project Aster?

Radiance

Unfinished Part 3: They Haunt Me in the Night

i think about the fact that Nico’s powers randomly include temperature control way too much. he can make stuff cold! and is apparently immune to cold himself, at least to some degree! why? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯probably ghost reasons! even though it is not inherently tied to ghosts at all and he can just Do That!

If my local library or bookshop were to post full time positions, I'd apply in a heartbeat, do anything to get it. The library occasionally posts part time, which in one circumstance may work in a pinch, say, going back to school for a certificate. Which, seeing how my job is right now, may very well happen.
