“Sometimes I dream about you. I memorize every detail of your face like a prayer. Those moments seem so real that I grieve whenever I wake up and your spot next to me is cold. Why did you beg me to kill you? I would’ve stopped. Even in death I cannot escape you. I’m not sure I want to even if I was begging for it.”

So I was showing my mother AvA, bc she was confused about why I was hyperfixated on stick figures, and when we got to the Purple's family scene in AvA11, she immediately noticed Navy.

"Did that stick just abandon his family?!"

She hasn't even seen AvM 29 yet, and she immediately pinned him as a deadbeat I canNOT--

[ID: gifs from episode 39 of the series "Mysterious Lotus Casebook." Li Lianhua and Fang Duobing are speaking to each other at a table outside Lotus Tower. Li Lianhua says, "Xiaobao, you've improved a lot through this journey. Compared to back then, when you were a kid using a wooden sword and claiming to be Li Xiangyi's student, you're much stronger now." Fang Duobing smiles, pleased. He continues, "As your teacher, I'm very pleased." Fang Duobing looks surprised and says, "Stop taking advantage of me. I'm not your student." He looks away, embarrassed. /end ID]

Aracnist's UDIMO

There's not many conversations about it and what people mostly chalk their UDIMO (animal/item suitcase form) up to is that it represents the arcanist as a person. Like symbolism to their personality.

But I also like how it also reflect how they're raised and what their upbringing is like.

The main ones being people raised under the Foundation, or taken it at a young impressionable age, are all dog UDIMOs. Sonetto, Horrorpedia, Medicine Pocket. Arcanists that are likely taken in by the Foundation before their arcanum has fully manifested. They're all dog UDIMOs so far. (It could as be a jab at Pavlov reference to having experimented on mainly dogs, which is fucked up) And even arcanists like X is a lil lab rat UDIMO.

I find it fascinating that UDIMO has so much more symbolism to them than just their nature as a person, but also reflects their upbringing and overall viewed by a greater narrative.

Do you think how much it would suck for Persephone, Zagreus, Hades, Nyx even (she raised Zag, clearly the lover of Persephone) to essentially be a footnote in Melinoe's life comparative to everyone else? Hades we know his reaction, but the others? They don't know her. What is her favorite things, her hobbies, the things that make her tick, the things that get under her skin. Persephone and the others wake up to realize that Mel has a whole ass life away from them. Yeah she has single-minded focus on saving the House, but no one in their right mind would immediately suggest simply plucking her from the Crossroads and putting her in the House. The sense of missing out of her whole life.

hiiii lily what is this ‘orv’ i have been seeing…..

HIIII MIKE. SMILES. orv is Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint! it's a webnovel with an ongoing webtoon adaption and it is making me Fucking Crazy. basically the premise there's this really unpopular really long webnovel called Three Ways to Survive an Apocalypse, and for years, Kim Dokja has been the only reader. when the novel finally ends, the author sends him an email with the txt file of the whole novel, and then suddenly the novel is wiped from the internet and in that instant, the events of the novel begin taking place in Kim Dokja's world. the apocalypse begins and humanity is subjected to cruel scenarios and challenges livestreamed for the entertainment of these powerful entities called constellations, and as the only one who read the story to its end, Kim Dokja is the only one fully equipped with knowledge of how this story goes (or at least, how it originally went)

it is SO good. it lures you in like "ooh this is a normal reverse isekai" and then ends up being CRAZY. it deals with questions about the boundary between characters and Real People and whether that distinction really matters, and it's one of those stories that looks the audience dead in the eye and dares you to look away first. literary devices are made Real (oh fourth wall we're really in it now...) and it plays with narrative voice and pov and unreliable narration in such fun ways. it is ultimately about the value of stories and the value of being a reader and the choice to wrestle with the story that's been written for you in favor of the story you really want to tell. it's also about Kim Dokja having something Deeply Wrong With Him skdlfjlksdjf the journey i went on with him was "okay he's a reader insert who reads novels as escapism, i get it" -> "oh actually he has something wrong with him" -> "oh he has something Wrong With Him" -> "WHAT. WHAT THE FUCK. HELLO. WHAT WAS THAT." I'm obsessed with him.

I read the webtoon first which I think is a pretty effective onboarding point! some of the art had my jaw on the FLOOR it's so cool. the webtoon has adapted roughly the first third of the whole novel so far, and if you want to read the novel just dm me and I'll hit you up with the epub file lol (not just mike but anyone who is interested!)

thinking about the parallels between hermes thinking he's a terrible father and sally jackson thinking she's a terrible mother only Sally had Poseidon to talk to and Hermes only had May, his beautiful fragile mortal wife who went insane because he wasn't strong enough to keep her safe

oh God i can't do this someone hold me
