Okay, another question I have about the Mega Man series, how the hell are there so many games??
Like the main series has 11 games, the X games have 8, which already brings the total up to 19 and that’s not counting spin-offs like Megaman and Bass or Xtreme, then Zero has I think 4 and Legends 2, bringing us now to 25, and I don’t know about Battle Network but I imagine a fair number as well
And again, this isn’t counting the little spin-offs, this is just the main-ish branches of the series that I know. And already that’s a lot
And what makes this more crazy to me is that this isn’t so much the case of the series just being old and having a lot of time to release games. Because from what I can tell, since the 2010s, so about 15 years now, which isn’t too far from half of the series’ lifespan, there’s barely been any new Mega Man games, only re-releases. The only one I know is Mega Man 11 and maybe some of the Battle Network games from this era. From what I can tell, almost all the games had to come out between the 90s and 2000s
Which I mean when I say out loud, is like 20 years which okay I guess fair, that sounds like a lot of time. But that’s also 20+ games within the span of 20 years, and again, not counting spin-offs
How the hell were there this many games in the series?
#like okay I get a good chunk of branches were releasing simultaneously#I know X1 was being developed in between Megaman 6 and 7 and the first couple probably released with the main games#but like Jesus Christ how many games were they pumping out a year?#how were they even doing that?#and okay maybe I see why people say Capcom screwed over Mega Man considering there’s almost no new games now#I have to assume they’re the reason the games stopped#but still Jesus Christ#I mean okay I know other series have a bunch of spin-off titles that buff up the amount of games the franchise has#but I feel like it’s different with Mega Man#at least when it comes to the X games#I don’t know maybe this is just normal for franchises#or was when games took significantly less time and money to make because less powerful consoles#mega man#video games#questions#random stuff

Was looking at refs and since Viktor has two different leg braces I was wondering, do we think he wears them simultaneously?? The refs don't perfectly line up perspective-wise so it's hard to tell but parts of the one he wears during the Hexcore scenes look like they could maybe line up with the brace that he wears over his clothes, but also some parts really don't and look like they'd be super uncomfy. Also HOW does he take these on and off. Experts weigh in
#viktor#arcane#ig my assumption would be that he wears both simultaneously cause in the scene where he injects the shimmer#it seems implied that he just threw off his clothes and kept experimenting#so one might assume he was already wearing the smaller one underneath#tho it is a funny image to think of him just being like 'one sec i gotta go all the way home and grab my other brace to do this'#he can take off the back brace too cause hes not wearing it in the scene where he's in the hospital bed and you can see his shoulder#where the strap would be#but that one seems to make even less sense functionality wise#everything looks like its screwed together#or screwed INTO him#but only the top bolts on his spine are i think#in the close ups of his back brace model it looks like theres cushioning underneath the parts of it that cover the rest of his spine#so he can take it off. but HOW#what parts of it unscrew/detatch to pull open and off#does it not do that at all and he just has to shimmy it off his shoulder and all the way down his legs to get it off like a romper#the shape language of the designs are cool but like. tell me how it wooorrkkksss#forgive me if im just dumb and dont know at all how braces work and theres a very simple practical explanation for all this#any king who wants to infodump about mobility aids at me....the floor is yours#something to be said i suppose about the fact that zaunites have crazy prosthetics with wild augmentations that work flawlessly#and piltover's like. idk heres some fucking uncomfortable ass metal. salo gets wheelchair in non ada compliant place#they havent ever needed to adapt to accommodate disabilities etc etc#or maybe artists were just like 'heres a design' and everybody clapped and didnt give it a second thought#and then they just turned off the visibility on the mesh when they didnt need it knowing thered not be a scene where its taken off#dont even wanna THINK about what that rig would look like#like 40 different controllers#soft body and rigid hard surfaces needing to move together....#a cold chill just shot up my spine#<- guy who is only an animator and doesnt know how to rig#forgive the magic wand tool with zero cleanup. i am lazy

The leftism/anticapitalism leaving people's bodies the zeptosecond you imply that disabled people who aren't "productive" still matter in society and need to be treated like intrinsic equals who have a place in this world:
#disability#disability advocacy#described images#image description in alt#ableism#ableism tw#my full-time job is my disability and you're lucky that i am still 'productive' as-is#your boss doesn't care that you think you're superior for being hired by them. they're still going to treat you like profit machines#it astounds me how people will capitulate for oppression because they place their intrinsic value in their ability to be at the top...#...or at least 'at the top' compared to others. it's the same impulse that makes people think their cisgender status makes them superior...#...you are placing your worth into systems which not only oppress others but offer you no true sense of worth...#...ESPECIALLY if you're also being exploited (even if just a bit)...#...you have a job sure but... do you actually get treated like a human being? are you actually paid? are you actually safe?...#...if the answer to any of those questions and more is 'no' then why do you place your value in capitalistic production. genuinely.#and why would you DEMAND disabled people to have the same exploitation you experience. why do you DEMAND productivity if you are proletaria#yes being a leftist and anticapitalist are linked but. some people still internalize capitalism without questioning it#being a leftist is about challenging that rather than assuming you're correct i think#also scientists were very silly when describing time that's like. less than a millisecond i think

what if Ivan took the tape off of Till during Top 3?
(aka. the ANAKT kids learned what kisses meant to humans)
#ivantill#ivan#till#alien stage#alnst#you know how ivan always gently takes off tills collar when hes sleeping#well till is awake here. but ivan cant remove the tape gently even if he wanted to#so ivan has no choice but to cause some pain. but he would rather do that than not to do anything for till#till’s thoughts were based on an interpretation that till can’t see he is cared for unless he can see it#i don’t know if its accurate but i need r7 to look into his brain and give closure#ivantill are truly misunderstanding upon misunderstanding and missed chances made by ivan and till themselves#if first kisses are special then ivantill’s first kiss (cure) was special in a way ig#doomed yaoi fr. yahooey#the 70% affection is my lifeline atp#alnst fanart#alien stage fanart#ctrlzxoo art

Tim Drake Accidentally Takes Over the World (and Didn’t Think to Mention It)
So, Janet somehow spent decades climbing her way into every government worth a damn, ruling the entire world from behind the scenes. And then, because the universe is apparently wild, she left it all to Tim.
Cut to Tim Drake, the brand-new, completely reluctant secret ruler of the entire planet. And he just… never really thought it was worth mentioning?
The Batfam finds out when Bruce stumbles across an encrypted memo traced to a mysterious Gotham office with Tim’s name on it.
Bruce, holding up the memo: “Tim. Want to explain why this document about, oh, international finance reforms is signed with your encryption key?”
Tim, not even looking up from his laptop: “Oh, yeah. That. Janet left me her ‘global influence portfolio’ or whatever. Mostly paperwork.”
The Batfam stares in total shock.
Dick sputters nearly dropping his coffee: "Wait—you’ve been managing world policies?!”
Tim, shrugging, barely paying attention as he emails the president of Germany: “Well, yeah. I figured someone had to keep things running. It's not that big a deal. I mostly just redirect some policies. You know, keep things running smoothly.”
Jason, absolutely cackling: “Are you telling me that little Replacement here is the reason for half the ‘global cooperation’ headlines?”
Tim, scrolling through emails: “They send me reports; I send suggestions. And honestly, they make it way more dramatic than it is. It's not that hard."
Barbara stares at him, half horrified, half impressed. “How did we not notice this?”
Tim blinks. “I mean, it’s not like I was actively hiding it. I assumed you guys knew I was… kind of managing these things?”
Cue utter disbelief.
Stephanie, laughing too hard to breathe: “Tim, do you have world leaders on speed dial?”
Tim, completely unfazed: “Only the important ones. They text, mostly. Oh—by the way, I might’ve influenced a minor arms control thing last week. Don’t worry; it’s all sorted.”
Bruce, looking like he’s two seconds from fainting: “Sorted? Tim, we're talking about you having global authority here. People notice these things."
Tim shrugs again as his phone buzzes with notifications. “Sure, but it’s not like they’re going to do anything too crazy. I just suggest stuff, and they listen. Honestly, it’s like herding really powerful, really overdramatic cats.”
Damian, scandalized: “You mean to tell me, Drake, that you’re manipulating world politics like it’s a game of checkers?”
Tim, still casual: “Manipulating’s a strong word. Like I said, it’s more just nudging things along.” His phone buzzes again. “Oh, hang on. France is panicking about their energy policy again.”
The Batfam tries to process the fact that Tim—Tim, who routinely forgets what day it is—is now, somehow, running the world.
And then his phone buzzes with a message from the UN Security Council.
Tim sighs, glancing down. “Oh, great. Looks like they’re debating nuclear arms again. Be right back.”
Meanwhile, the Batfam is left absolutely speechless, processing the fact that their Tim—scrawny, coffee-fueled Tim—is apparently one of the most powerful people on the planet. And to him its just another tuesday.
#tim drake#batfam#tim accidentally becomes the most influential person in the world and its not even his fault#janet was totally paranoid ant who knows what and knew she had to get herself involved with any politics she could#somehow this means she ends up becoming some kind of consultant that all the governments go to for any advice#tim just doesn't care because it means more paperwork for him#tim learned everything he knows from janet herself so when she dies they all do what she wrote in her will and go to her son instead#batfam in absolute disbelief#how did none of them realize?!#tbf i dont think its something anyone would realize unless they were out right told#tim drake ruling the world

I appreciate the lovely science museum volunteer who saw my four-year-old and started carefully explaining basic magnetic properties
I appreciate EVEN MORE that when firstborn went "oh, like a maglev train" and "that's an electromagnet!", said lovely volunteer totally code-switched, and we quickly ended up at
"Want to see a gaussian rifle?"
Oh boy did firstborn EVER
#the moment where the volunteer kind of paused and went#Oh are your parents scientists?#Kind of you sir but even if we were#Firstborn absolutely gets to take his own credit here#We had to look through three different books the day his dumbed down children's magnetism book mentioned electromagnets#and he wanted to see a technical diagram of one#(thank you How Stuff Works by David Macaulay and all that man's books)#(I do not think preschoolers were your intended audience but boy did your audience find you)#Anyway that's how ferro fluid ended up in the birthday wish list

the fact that iron bull opens his recruitment conversation with pretending he doesn't quite remember the name of the the inquisition's ambassador. Jose-what's-her-name-again. he's just a big dumb jock no thoughts head empty mercenary who likes fighting and drinking don't worry about lil old me inquisitor! I'll hit things for you if you'd like as long as you pay me! ],) and then right after he reveals he's a spy he drops that he knows not only the name of your spymaster and how she operates but also her haircolour. (but like in a safely bro-y way tho! make that fighting and drinking and fucking! I'll be useful to you but in a real meathead non-threatening kind of way I'll be too busy bedding chantry sisters to do any real harm ],) continue to not worry about lil old me inquisitor!)
god bull you're so multidimensionally and fine-tunedly full of shit I love you so much fhdksah
#my love affair with the particular psychological damage bull has got going on continues unabated it Compels me#dragon age#dragon age inquisition#iron bull#AS IF you'd forget josephine's name even if you were just the successful mercenary captain you pretend to be you motherfucker!#the way he subtly controls the tone of that whole conversation is so fucking elegant and cool#say what you want about him and even though it's destroyed his soul bull does know how to do his job#(also the 'could've just been a guy in a spiked helmet orlesians aren't too bright' dig if you're adaar is just *chef's kiss*)
