one thing that this spop rewatch is really opening my eyes on is how hypocritical the Catra redemption discourse was back when the show was still airing. i could make a compilation of all the times Scorpia tries to murder someone in the Rebellion or Entrapta disregards basic morals to uphold her partnership with the Horde and yet they get passes in regards to their redemption while people complain about Catra not “deserving it”. and like, it’s literally only because Scorpia and Entrapta are nicer than Catra. if Catra wasn’t a huge bitch no one would be saying her redemption was rushed or undeserved. people care far more about personality than they do about actions.

#this applies to hordak too btw #the redemption discourse was just as bad with him #but he should get a separate post because his circumstances were a bit more unique than the super pal trios #spop #catra #entrapta #scorpia #kit speaks #spop discourse

another compilation, this time, of best girl entrapta being treated with love and respect.

#i disliked the way bow told entrapta to just “be a good friend”#BUT some parts of what he said was still wholesome so i'm allowed to cherrypick #entrapta deserves the world #i contemplated on adding the part where mermista hugs her #but taking into consideration how she treated her that entire episode.. no.#spop #she ra #entrapta #scorpia #hordak #bow #entrapdak

hi and welcome to tdp callbacks that would actually send me

"if i am the king then you have to let me go"

"i'm corvus, i was specifically requested"

"i don't believe in locks"

"haha nice one callum, he deserves it"

"lady justice came to me in a dream"

"don't get yourself killed."

"strength isn't always about weapons"

"shhh, nobody likes a noisy mage"

"tell me she wasn't your world"

"you're just like your grandmother"

"she’s not my friend, she is my prisoner"

"rickety snickers"

"wasn’t the horse~"

"i am a storm dragon. i certainly hope it's working."

"in the name of love, you may perform acts so unforgivable… you will never forgive yourself."

"we could travel the countryside and try the seven cakes of xadia!"

"i am prepared to do anything to protect the king. anything. i hope you will understand"

"i guess it wouldn't be the first time i accidentally on purpose ruined a super rare magical artifact."

"don't do this. i will kill you" "probably"

"anyone know any adventuring songs?"

"we can find more practical uses for this one"

"well, i think about it like this, why see myself as chained down, when i can be chained up?" "i admire your tenacity"

"just the three of us"

"watch, he'll come back reciting an epic poem about his adventuring. he's probably late because he's stuck thinking of a rhyme for 'legendary heroics.'"

"the world just isn't ready for what we have. "

"i have been doing research!" "yes, i can see that"

"i do not understand girls"

"i thought you disapproved" "i disagree. but i stand by you anyway"

"you know what? in a few years, when you’re older, buddy, we’ll sit down and have a heart-to-heart talk about sandwiches."

"i would rather die a king, than live as a coward."

"edge-frazzled"

"soren is a doof but he's my doof!"

"it doesn't matter what happens to me. live or die, this dragon goes home."

"the kingdom of duren has been suffering from a terrible famine for nearly seven years. "

"you big dumb human."

"even if you were wearing the rarest legendary armor, forged by sunfire elves... super dead."

"fool me once, shame on you. fool me twice, shame on me. fool me three times, back to you again." "that's not how it goes." "shame on you."

#“i thought you disapproved” “i disagree. but i stand by you anyway” is SO rayllum coded like the harrai parallels are PARALLELING #and the 'you keep calling it a monster' parallel between rayla and sarai #there's probably more that i've missed but also add more!!!#something about duren's famine for seven years and aaravos returning in seven years i dunno but theres something there #hear me out #“if i am the king then you have to let me go”#but ezran says it to runaan #the vision?#lacking a little but still!-#still waiting for the sandwiches conversation between ez and callum PLEASE #if we don't have callum try and promise rayla that they'll be fine and can “travel the countryside and try the seven cakes of xadia”#paralleling viren #i will riot #rayla and her self sacrificing BUT it comes back because of her nature and 'rayla is a hero' not because of the moonshadow culture #ezran lady justice truthers RISE #please i want the LORE #i keep making up my own this isn't good i'll get too attached and then canon will just muck it up #'strength isn't always about weapons' says ezran as he hoists a nuke onto his shoulder 'but it is right now'#my personal headcanon is that he uses a staff to fight - a like his mum and b because it's not a sword and like #he forged the crown SPECIFICALLY so it wasn't a sword #tdp musical episode when #like they could go full subspace rhapsody (from star trek strange new worlds)#OR like in she ra where they randomly had like a sea shanty battle?? and scorpia singing i'm a spy #in the same way they've had rayla singing the lullaby and the dark eyed sailor shanty with finnegrin #someone stop me spamming the tags #oh wait theyre my tags #nevermind :)))#the dragon prince #giveusthesaga #continuethesaga

Q&A with Alex Rider Screenwriter, Guy Burt 🦂

I sent Guy Burt (screenwriter/adapter/executive producer of the Alex Rider tv series) a load of questions hoping he may choose a few to answer and he VERY kindly answered them all! Incredibly grateful he took the time to do so 🥲

Sharing here for those not on Twitter!

I saw people talking about that scene where Yassen shot Max as a huge betrayal of Alex and it's kinda funny to me like yeah he involved Alex in a murder but also I cannot emphasise enough that Alex decided to join a criminal organisation. People have been telling him he'll need to kill for days now, Alex has watched them kill multiple people already, I get that it sucks for him but you cannot team up with a known killer and be that shocked when actually his secret extra mission was to kill

#alex rider spoilers #alex rider #yassen gregorovich #alex x yassen #alex rider tv #like hot take i guess but actually i don't think he lied to alex when alex asked him about why he was coming #he just avoided the question and said something else that's true (and is part of his underlying reason for coming)#he already told alex he wouldn't just tell him everything like mrs jones might #it's the way yassen has been working for a decade and a half. you get told the essentials and don't ask questions #not answering alex's questions and holding back info/not sharing all the details of yassen's part of the mission is not the same as lying #i mean i guess the real issue here is that alex does not want to kill or be involved in a murder #which is not something yassen and scorpia have ethical concerns about ashdflhs #and is something they have basically told him he'll need to get over already #once again i cannot stress enough that alex is literally surrounded by known killers and teamed up with them

Chaotic Alex Rider is my favourite.

One of my most favourite scenes is where he gets mad that his old friend started taking, stalks the drug dealer by bike then decides, yes, a logical option here is to play hook a duck claw machine with the drug production boat (people and all) using a crane to drop it off gently in the police station car park like you do.

(which of course ends up meaning instead being dropped from height through the conference centre next door's roof)

It's remarkable that Alex is even somewhat surprised at what happens next 😂

Truly top tier chaos.

#alex rider #alexriderischaotic #i like to think SCORPIA admired his sadistic methods...#before they met him and realised it was just his naturally occurring chaos #devils luck is just code for insanely chaotic and gets away with it SOMEHOW #anthony horowitz #point blanc #alex rider has to decide every day whether he's in the mood for some tight rope cement bucket walking or perhaps ironing board snowboarding

Narrator: Alex could never kill someone in cold blood. He simply did not have it in him to do something so cruel and malicious and definitely not condonable in a book intended for children.

*two (2) minutes later*

Alex: I CAST FIREBALL

#rip nile i guess lmao #does this 14y/o ever stop pretending like he doesn’t have an extensive kill count #alex rider #scorpia

#alex rider #yassen gregorovich #vladimir sinnister #the boyss #our favourite assassins #at this point its not even a joke anymore #they are the same person but also simultaneously 2 different characters #they're twins #and i stand by that #yassen (yasha) is the slightly younger one #he's more chill #vlad is the protector #he's older and more serious #he joined scorpia with ease and didnt have the problems yassen did with killing #he was ready to protect yasha #also treasureguardingdragon came up with more lore:#vladimir is actually named after sharkovsky #when they were in the dacha #sharkovsky names vlad after himself to further remove his identity #then when yasha's name was mistaken he didnt correct it cause he wanted to keep solidarity with his brother #so now they're vlad and yassen #no more [REDACTED] and yasha #also vlad is absolutely an allegory for autistic masking #yassen is the autism and vlad is the masking #to protect oneself #because vlad is proecting yassen #they're one and the same #can you tell im no longer normal about them?#kapsel.3 art #and to think this only started out as a joke

From Guy Burt’s Twitter - first drafts of Ian being assassinated

+a response about his perspective of what John told Ian about Yassen

#a precious crumb of Ian + Yassen content 😭#interested by that ‘So. I was right. you are back’ from Ian that sounds like he’s not been believed about SCORPIA (by the department?)#or has he tried to talk to Yassen before about SCORPIA/him being an assassin?#alex rider #Ian Rider #yassen gregorovich #yian #guy Burt

hey guys, the ending of alex rider season 3. i will never get over it. yassen is free. he saved alex and in return alex freed him from scorpia. i imagine he's gone off into retirement, back to his home country, just like he planned to.

#i was already sobbing my eyes out during the last like 10 minutes of the last episode #but like then the scene happened #where alex was about to get pranked by scorpia one final time but yassen ended it #i fucking lost my mind #i was expecting it and hoping and begging for it and HE CAME THROUGH YASSEN IS A LEGEND #this is from the books btw #the fourth book where yassen kept wanting to kill off damian and dip he said he wanted to retire #scorpia never would've let him #but in this universe he's free of them #AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH #alex rider season 3 spoilers #alex rider season 3 #yassen gregorovich #alex rider

my life would be improved by having a bizarre and confusing friendship with the russian assassin my father trained

#it's me I'm alex rider #was it improved not really but is it compelling YES #yes sir I would like to be adopted by scorpia's top agent who has made himself my guardian angel #who sends me into a bullfight and encourages me to join the agency he doesn't even like but is kinda trapped in but they also pay him well #alex rider #yassen gregorovich
