So some thoughts about this ep from me. It's mainly about the big convo they all have before facing the boss. So some people misinterpret the conversation and think Neon, Ace and Michinaga are just being stupid for the sake of drama but I disagree. Imo Ace's point, especially when calling Keiwa entitled, is that Keiwa is implicitly expecting someone to give up their wish to save his sister. Notice that Keiwa never suggests WHO would be the distraction. To Ace the wishes are precious if they're worth fighting for. World peace may be a thing Keiwa wants but there are things more important to him, like Sarah being safe and happy. For the other three though their wishes are the things they want more than anything. Michinaga's wish to destroy all Kamen Riders is more or less his sole drive and motivator (especially when it's revealed what the method to his madness is). For Neon her wish for true love is a big drive for her as she's never actually recieved it (there is actually a reason for this but that's a later reveal THAT NO OTHER ASKS BETTER SPOIL), also just wanna add that true love would be more accurately described as genuine love, no strings attached, someone who loves Neon for who she is. As for Ace I can't say much about his wish but I'll merely say that much like Michinaga there's a reason for the wish and imo he's more driven then Michinaga, whilst also being better at manoeuvring his plans to minimise damage, as opposed to Buffa's more straight forward and bullheaded approach.

This imo is why Ace calls Keiwa entitled. Keiwa has no real personal stake in his wish, beyond just being a nice guy. World peace isn't personal to him and his life really isn't worse for not having it granted, his sister being taken is the first time he's had any kind of real personal stakes beyond his own life. Keiwa realises that Ace is right about this so it's why he chooses to be the distraction. I think part of Keiwa was hoping that someone else would offer to be a distraction because small spoiler for Geats x Revice but it turns out Keiwa has a dark side to him too and if we think by Revice standards of the dark sides Keiwa's would be cruel, selfish and self-centered and I think that part of him is what kept him from volunteering straight away.

Btw the Geats x Revice movie has been subbed but you should avoid watching it until you watch episode 16.

Yeah I completely agree that Keiwa is entitled. Ace was completely in the right with what he said, that's what makes the drama so compelling.

I'm also unsurprised that Keiwa has a dark side lmao. That's like saying the sky is blue.

catching up with older art and doodles <33

NINJAGO + MONKIE KID

I am very motivated atm. God. Drawing feels great.

I want to see a crossover with them so bad.

I haven't seen Monkie Kid but I've seen clips and I love the art and animation, and I'm interested to know the story. I think I got the gist.

But I've read this fic where MK and Kai are twins and children of Shadowpeach and I gotta say I'm in love. I hope it updates soon. I gotta see the Samadhi Fire scene with that cuz yknow, Kai is the Mater of Fire. I am so pumped.

Its funny how MK is basically the older twin but Kai is older than him in the drawing. I like that gi, okay?

Star Twins? I like to imagine Kai's fire originating from the stars and sun rather than the Earth since Cole already has lava.

MK is already a star.

Star Twins :,)

If y'all got fic recs of Ninjago x LMK pls send them. I need them so bad.

Ah, doomed lovers my (doomed) beloved.

I caved and decided yk what... dragon Ares au. -> Dragon AU lore-dump

Slightly different story? but its like mostly the same except Ares (and Apollo) were seemingly abandoned eggs found by a squad in the hyrulean army and raised by Artemis(Zelda) and Athena(Impa). Everything dragon-lore-related that I've been (not so subtly) sprinkling is also all the same, including Volga, but the effects of being raised by hylians makes itself clear in Ares and his sister.

The rest of Hyrule Warriors still plays out somewhat similarly except that yk... Ares is a dragon. I mean who wouldn't want to steal a dragon for your own army?

Also since he was raised by hylians who have 0 idea how dragons actually work, especially fire dragons (because of how sparse they are), he probably has no idea he could have a hylian form like Volga.

Oh. Also he knows how to use a sword.

Nymeria nipped eagerly at her hand as Arya untied her. She had yellow eyes. When they caught the sunlight, they gleamed like two golden coins. Arya had named her after the warrior queen of the Rhoyne, who had led her people across the narrow sea. (Arya I, AGOT) *George directly compares Dany to Nymeria*

---

This time the monsters did not frighten her. They seemed almost old friends. Arya held the candle over her head. With each step she took, the shadows moved against the walls, as if they were turning to watch her pass. "Dragons," she whispered. (Arya IV, AGOT)

--

If I had wings I could fly back to Winterfell and see for myself. And if it was true, I'd just fly away, fly up past the moon and the shining stars, and see all the things in Old Nan's stories, dragons and sea monsters and the Titan of Braavos, and maybe I wouldn't ever fly back unless I wanted to. (Arya X, ACOK)

--

"I wish I had a flaming sword." Arya could think of lots of people she'd like to set on fire. (Arya IV, ASOS)

--

Arya drew back from him. "He killed the slave?" That did not sound right. "He should have killed the masters!" (Arya II, AFFC)

--

"I would like to see a dragon," Mercy said wistfully. "Why does the envoy have a chicken on his chest?" (Mercy, TWOW) *said to her friend Daena*

This is the same Arya Stark who I'm supposed to believe isn't going to be instant besties with Daenerys Targaryen...okay. I think it's time for some of y'all to go back to the books and actually read them.
