#every plot point was so plot point

the way that that was the most percy jackson episode to every percy jackson is wild. the essence that was captured in this singular episode is insane.

something i wanna say on shen yuan taking over shen jiu's body is that i often see mentions that while everyone knew, nobody did anything because they liked shen yuan better, and i think it's important to say that they did do something about it, but just couldn't find the cause.

shen qingqiu went to wei qingwei's sword trials terrace three times to try to pull hong jing, yue qingyuan himself tested him on demonic qi and mu qingfang did ample research to try and find the reason behind the sudden change, but none of them could find anything. only after all that did they consider the option that it could be amnesia, and then they decided that it might be better not to actively reinstate his memories because they thought the new shen qingqiu was more pleasant. but, again, that was only after they couldn't find any evidence that this wasn't shen qingqiu. it's still pretty tragic that they decided they liked someone else better, but in their defense, they didn't know this was actually someone else.

i think it's not so much a case of "we like this version of shen qingqiu better so let's not look into it too deeply", it's more like "we tried every test we have and nothing came of it, so the only explanation left is that this is the real shen qingqiu, but with amnesia"

it reminds me of this meme:

[ID: An edit of a post by @/tockthewatchdog which says, "i mean they did also test sqq, that was a pretty significant thing that happened. like i understand where you're coming from here but they very much did test shen qingqiu". End ID]

ID made by @nebulations thank you so much!!

"gerson's wish is to stay dead" the first thing gerson did when the church dark world revived him was activate his dyke radar and find the nearest lesbian to help him reach across the veil and tell his son he loved him

aside from the fact that it's been established that darkners don't stop existing after a fountain is closed, and that they're very much aware of the things that happen around them in the light world, that is not "man who doesn't want to exist anymore" behaviour. I'm tellin' ya. he's coming back

Had an sudden flash of an idea like "oh that would be so fucked/funny- I have GOT to share it."

So you know those aus where SJ like adopts SY and raises him? One of those and make 10000% sure that SY looks EXACTLY like SJ. Guy looks like the man's clone.

The ship here, of course, being yueyuan.

I don't have like a whole concept for this but here is some Added Seasoning for your enjoyment:

- SJ and YQY have NOT reconciled in any way

- SJ and YQY still have that whole exes/soulmate thing going on

- YQY was 100% in love with SJ at some point and feels weird about SY being his body double

- SJ would 100% kill YQY flat out if he knew

- You just know that YQY would be SO SO SO SO SO guilty

There is so much you could add to this to make this worse. I wanna see it. Make them all hurt.

I just got home from seeing Materialists and guys. GUYS. 😭😭😭

I won't spoil anything because I'm not an asshole but oh my fucking god - it was SO GOOD. Beautiful and touching and charming and hitting very close to home at some points, while also tugging at the heartstrings, but just the right amount. Everyone's performances were top notch (Chris stood out for me of course, like I know I'm biased but he really did), the soundtrack was gorgeous, and it was just like this love letter to New York that just made me miss the city so, so much ❤���

Just. Gorgeous, gorgeous movie. Everything I hoped for and more❤️ I already can't wait to see it again 😭😭

An underrated media literacy skill that a horrifying amount of people seem to struggle with is knowing that a character saying or thinking something is true doesn’t necessarily mean it’s true if canon doesn’t show us that it is.

OK but may I share this truly incredible commission I got from @sashthesloth of my non-Rook OC Meira Van Morovich meeting the Tevinter Nights version of Lucanis Dellamorte? The art is an illustration of the first chapter my upcoming fic called (working title) Birds of a Feather, where they meet in a totally non-Veilguard related alternate version of DA4.

I'm off my shit totally insane in my writing ideas AND this pairing, had no idea this was going to be my 2025, but Sash did an absolutely amazing job and I'm just frothing at the mouth about it. Thank you so much!!!!

THT S6 prediction under the cut

Josh Charles is playing Commander Judd and Serena marries him thinking she’s going to make a difference in Gilead but she ends up being the first wife he bluebeards…

Keeps the general audience happy because “yay Serena is finally dead” and there’s also the poetic justice of her finally being hoisted by her own petard (thinking she can reform Gilead and that she’s above it all when the country is an absolute cesspool and she never stood a chance)

Holy shit, Shadow is so fucking good!

if i'm being honest i actually don't believe the georgebertha divorce will happen because i don't think julian fellowes has the guts to go through with it.

Volumes 2 & 3 really said the guy who uses child soliders has the moral high ground over Ironwood and I don't know how to feel about that.
