#he haunts the narrative.

[mickies-musical-madness]

Something that stands out to me about Boromir is that he's the only one in the Fellowship, and among the only ones in the rest of the movies, to fight with a shield.

And to me, that distinct fighting style says something about him as a person. He, at his core, wants to protect others.

He always fights to protect! He fights to protect Gondor from Mordor, he fights to protect everyone in Moria, he fights to protect the hobbits. He fights to protect until his final breath, and it's tragic and valiant and haunting.

He is so aware of his mistake only after he made it. He really had just wanted the Ring to protect Gondor. He did want to use it for good. That, as well as his father's pressures and the ring's powers to tempt people, are what caused his fall.

Just saw some dumbass on TikTok saying “what narrative did Jason Todd haunt his death was inconsequential” and I had to laugh cause Jason Todd literally haunts the fuck out of the narrative to such extent that even his resurrection couldn’t exorcise his ghost. What are you saying. As if Bruce Wayne doesn’t miss one single opportunity to hallucinate Jason’s dead and bloodied body. As if the panel of Batman holding him dead in his arms hasn’t been redrawn dozens of times?

JASON IS LITERALLY FIGHTING NEXT TO HIM BE SO FR RN😭😭 i get character hatred but WHY ARE WE LYING

[tackykachowch]

Silco SO should've haunted the narrative in s2 I can't stress this enough. Like, we knew Vander, Mylo and Claggor only for 3 episodes, but their presence was felt aaaall throughout s1. And now you're telling me that a PRIMARY ANTAGONIST of s1, a leader of Zaun, Jinx's dad and The person who started the negotiations with Piltover for Zaun's independence only got a couple of mentions?? Which aren't even relevant to the plot or character motivations??? Are you LEGIT FOR REAL kidding me???? I still can't believe this happened chat.

He's literally a part of the main cast. He literally was present in every single episode of s1. And again, given just How Much was tied directly to him his death should've had just. Massive consequences. For almost every single character. And yet.

My honest reaction to this information:

crying sobbing shitting myself

Ok but can you imagine being the admin controlling chayanne, and having philza Minecraft tell you that he sees "a lot of technoblade in you"?? Bro i don't care if it's rp, I'd start sobbing on the spot

[mattholicguilt]

why dont people get that Jason grace being milquetoast and underdeveloped compared to Percy and Nico is like. the point. that's his thing. he's the guy who gave everything he had to everyone else and had nothing left for himself. he's superman. he's a sacrificial lamb. he gave his whole life to a cause he believed in and his reward is being a footnote in other people's stories.

Uhm happy (unofficial) klapollo day! Here is a mini comic I made 💜❤️

“After all…”

“… Evidence is everything in court.”

Dual Destinies “Turnabout for Tomorrow” What-If scene. Perhaps a bit too edgy for Apollo, but I thought the concept was compelling! He gets shelved a lot in his own “trilogy” so he can have whatever he wants

Thinking about timcassie post Conner's death again

Teen Titans Vol. 3 #34 | The Skeleton Twins, dir.

ID under cut

[Begin ID. The entire collection of images is a webweaving for the TimCassie ship from DC comics.

Image 1: A comic panel from Teen Titans (2003). Cassie Sandsmark (Wonder Girl) glares at Tim Drake (Robin), who is out of frame. "What did you do after Superboy died?" she asks.

Image 2: A screenshot of a movie transcript. Text reads: "Three other men. I wasn't in love with any of them."

Image 3: Two comic panels from Dark Crisis: Young Justice. In the first, Tim and Cassie kiss while crying. Tim's narration box reads: "...I'm sorry." In the second panel, Cassie cries in a graveyard, Tim's retreating silhouette visible in the distance. Tim's narration box continues: "For how you and I... after Conner died."

Image 4: Screenshotted quote. Text reads: "This is not a love story, but love is in it."

Image 5: Two comic panels from Teen Titans (2003), set in Tim's underground cloning lab. In the first, Tim looks up at Cassie, having fallen to his knees. A single tear escaping his mask, he says: "I miss him so much." In the second panel, Cassie kneels down in front of him and takes his hands.

Image 6: Screenshotted quote. Text reads: "It wasn't about anything so shallow as physical desire. They wanted each other in the way of flesh wanting to knit itself over a wound."

Image 7: Three more comic panels from the same Teen Titans issue as before. In the first, Cassie has begun to cry as well. She says, "I do too." In the second panel, Tim and Cassie both lean closer to each other, still crying. The third panel is an extreme closeup of their lips, inches apart. Still, the tears are visible.

Image 8: Screenshotted quote. Text reads: "It's all the love you want to give but cannot. All of that unspent love gathers in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go."

Images 9 and 10: Two cropped comic panels of Cassie and Tim kneeling on the battlefield, hunched over Conner Kent's body. Their poses mirror each other eerily.

Image 11: Screenshotted quote by Thomm Quackenbush. Quote reads: "There is no harm in being used. We all use one another daily. But were you misused by me? I can think of no one alive who could have performed better under the demands of your fate."

Image 12: Two comic panels from the Teen Titans issue where they break up. In the first panel, Tim stares out the window, looking melancholy. In the second, we zoom out to see that he is watching as Cassie flies away, her bag in hand.

Something something... mama's boy... something something... doomed yaoi...

Guys I'm gonna be honest here and say that I think that Timothy Jackson Drake-Wayne— the boy who became Robin to save Batman and keep Robin's legacy alive, the boy who was haunted by this poor dead boy and constantly hallucinated his existence, the boy whose middle name is a constant reminder that his father is dead— would NOT want to name his kid after a dead person! I know lots of people are fans of him naming his kids Jack/Jackie or Wendy, but I can't really see him naming his kid after a TV character...I wish I was good with baby names so that I could branch this out a bit,,,

N E WAYS this silly little phone sketch was bc of @hyperblue 's post!! <3 Thanks for the inspo!

what she says: yea i’m fine

what she’s thinking: the story brought both carpenter and faulkner to their inevitable end points that have been foreshadowed from the v first episode of the show ambiguity of carpenters death aside she stood on the banks of the river singing like her nana glass and was gunned down by the military and faulkner was drowned dragged delivered by the god and story he had let devour him but. but. before those things happened right before the narrative reached its end both of them stood up and said no! i want to go forward! i want to find something past this whatever it might be i don’t want it to take me yet im going to keep on walking! and it was too late! the thing is it was too fucking late!!!!!!! the aquifer was already flooding the soldiers were closing in she was to hurt to run he can’t swim. the chance had come and gone at the beginning of the episode for any hope of them reaching each other ever again but even though it was too little too late never ever going to be enough they both looked the site of their doom in the eyes and said i do not accept this. not here. not now. i am staring at you– the thing that will eat me — and resolving to pry open the jaws and choose to use the last moments of my life (whether i know it or not) to run and stumble and crawl and cry and sing in the hopes of reaching the people who matter to me more than being made your meal. and of course they got fucking eaten anyways. of course they did bc they were walking towards it from the beginning. but there is a way out, there is a way forward, there is a land beyond the storm that is possible to reach if you choose to step out of the story that has been built for you to find it. we walk on, with a rough and tarnished hope, and a tangled, ruined love. it can end with love, and it can end with kindness. even as the jaws are closing. ours is a world of miracles.

[shitpostingkats]

*grips you by the lapels* Can we PLEASE talk about the fact that Noctis straight up dies in the leviathan fight and how that informs every character decision he makes after that? Can we please talk about the fact that he deliberately hides this from everyone he cares about, so well that it's almost impossible for the player to even notice??? Can we please talk about Prince Noctis Lucis Caelum having to bear the weight of his own corpse?????
