wheee

#star's shinies #mostly just messing with light no further commentary #I thought I did but I couldn't find the panel I wanted to reference #I may have misremembered it or had a different translation sooo #yeah no random meta today #Actually #why does viper consider Oroborous to be their strongest illusion when mirage R is so overpowered #idk maybe I missed something but I think it more speaks to their perception of power and control #they have that whole illusions vs martial arts thing going on with fon but the illusions they claim are their most powerful... are the ones #that are real? not the ones that affect the mind so strongly #I think part of that is that they have clearly had to prove themselves a lot *to* people who don't value that power #which has led to that duality of the pride and arrogance they present with their seemingly low actual opinion of themself and their talents #also #fon and mammon have many neat parallels I think #they may have been designed to be similar in that way even? opposing colours (light vs dark) but still that flowy shape language #but primarily in their flames #disintegration and construction exist in opposition to each other while also relying on the same? axis? maybe? idk #+ you get that kind of personality conflict where the one with the destructive powers is calm and controlled while the one with the creativ #powers is unstable and almost fragile #which in some ways makes their powers uniquely dangerous in their hands specifically- there are many destructive and angry storm users #in khr but that power in the hands of someone who will think before using it is much more worrying #and unstable mist users are shown again and again to be especially dangerous because someone who can bend reality losing their grip on #reality is a recipe for disaster #and to think I said I had no meta today #khr #katekyo hitman reborn #viper khr #mammon khr #fon khr #not in the art but I rambled about him in the tags enough that I think I need to tag him

Roxas: Had the Halloween town kids throw bombs in his face for multiple missions in a row before finally breaking down and smacking them around a bit.

Ventus: The dwarves were rude and refused to talk to him, immediately resorted to chasing them down and whacking them.

Characterization I see frequently: Ah, yes, Roxas is the one always willing to throw hands and Ventus is a smol sunshine boy.

#kh #kingdom hearts #these are really silly examples but the point stands!#in fact I think it expands when you look at their full screen-time #I am once again begging people to watch a full let's play of Days #don't get me wrong Ventus IS brightness and sunshine #but he also has the energy of a chihuahua ready to fight the world and I will stand by that #where as Roxas will tend to just try to avoid it until he Very Much Can't #now I think Roxas does BITTERNESS better than Ventus or Sora #but bitterness is not temper #in fact bitterness is usually negative emotions left on the backburner until the resentment caves in on itself #I suppose this is up to interpretation but from my reading...#a lot of times Ventus seems to burn out his anger then let it go #whereas Roxas doesn't do anything with the emotions until he/the situation self-destructs catastrophically so it ends up being nastier #but on the day-to-day?#yeah no Ventus is going to be the one reacting first #you can also exchange Sora for Ventus for some of these arguments #though I think he lands somewhere between Ventus and Roxas for short-temperedness #all this is more complicated than this reductive commentary of course #you have to take in how and in what orders the characters were introduced and marketed #the difficulty of getting the handheld games historically and the biases that set in before they were easily accessed #not to mention stock archetypes for fandom joke set-ups that then perpetuate the characterization...#like there's a LOT to how this came to be #but it Gets To Me sometimes #yza talks about a thing

It’s a drinking to forget kind of night, and Husk is three bottles in…

He knew Rosie wouldn’t want him to hurt himself, but then, she hadn’t exactly taken his feelings into account when she decided to go have a fling with Vox…

#shit the cat locked himself in his room #he needs someone who isn’t Alastor to be there for him right now #tw: self harm #tw: self destruction #tw: angst #dash commentary

...

vayu muttering under his breath "I must not strangle puck in his sleep. strangling puck is the iago-killer. strangling puck is the little murder that brings total oblivion..."

#[iago darlington | accultant] souls born in cold and rain #[dash commentary]#[:]#[puck and vayu is a kind of mutually assured destruction situation i think]#[because the instant either of them make An Actual Attempt to murder rather than just posturing at each other absolutely everyone loses]#[anyway. vayu NOT beating the yandere allegations.]

People are always so willing to plow under fertile crops and murder nations if they can convince themselves they'll be planting the seeds of something better.

- grief hues - -

a little visual reflection over the past three months. i moved to new york city, and wanted to explore the tension that comes with going to a place everyone expects you to be excited about while the grief of leaving is still very heavy. all pictures by me.

[Image Description: A white page torn out of a book with black ink used for blackout poetry. A pencil and two pens sit on the corner of the page. The title 'God's Love for Man' is printed at the top. "Fuck God" is written in messy black marker in the top left corner. The poem reads -

"God is the adaptation of man.

The rain and seas speak to us in beautiful words,

'Eyes openest and desire living'.

The Creator's hand bore God's law that has brought suffering.

God's love cursed the thorn and the thistle as a part of God's plan for ruin and degradation.

The fallen all are flowers upon the thistles."]

#blackout poem #blackout poetry #poetry #poem #religious commentary #organized religion in general is fucking toxic and destructive #religious trauma #this is how im healing today #some random lady walked up to my partner at walmart after they lifted me from my wheelchair to the car and handed this to them #as two pagan witches it was immensely hilarious #as people with religious trauma it was triggering and nonconsensual #my partner isnt a blessing from god because they help me out of my wheelchair #theyre a supportive partner with muscles

Today’s my birthday, im working on getting a degree in politics and I have some empathy issues should I be concerned?

#ides of march #julius caesar #caesar #Legit after reading his commentaries #i would follow julius ceasar to death #He took a republic on the brink of destruction and without breaking a single rule til Rubicon beat it into an inch of its life #and then he raised it back up #idk huge respect for him #and his political agenda and policies were pretty good #like for their time #the internal divisions and shit
