Potentially unpopular opinion, but I love that Miguel was an asshole again in the second part of this season! It’s a reminder that he’s a character and not just Johnny’s main support. I mean Robby didn’t deserve it at all, but it makes sense that Miguel couldn’t help taking his anger out on him. And I love that Johnny was on the receiving end of it, because it feels like the tension between them just went away for no reason.
Sorry if I’m bothering you!
You’re never bothering me, and I completely agree! They so rarely give Miguel any narrative agency these days, and like Johnny all it does is reduce him as a character. Miguel is a whole, complicated, messy teenager. He isn’t a saint. He isn’t perfect. He makes mistakes and has ugly unfair feelings sometimes, like every single teenager does. And I love when this show actually lets him be like this, lets him be wrong, lets him be a little bit of a dick to the people he cares about who don’t deserve it. Lets him be a real person with actual human feelings. And then also lets him take accountability for what he does wrong, apologize, show how much he’s grown, that he is a good person and a good friend. I love it truly, and it feels like it’s something that in a lot of ways hasn’t really been granted to Miguel since he fell off that balcony.
#miguel is one of mt favorite characters but since season 4 at least he has just been. boring#he is rarely allowed to feel a lasting negative emotion#and when he makes a mistake or does something wrong he is rarely allowed for the narrative to even consider it one. to#face (proportionate) consequences and have those consequences acknowledged for what they are#i dont want this to be misconstrued as me saying miguel deserved to be kicked off the balcony or to absolve robby of his responsibility in#that. but i do think the biggest disservice this show did to miguel was ignore and remove his own culpability in that fight#and again that is not to take blame away from robby for his own actions#but the way that the show in a lot of ways has reframed miguel as this almost saint like victim of the karate war is just boring to me#rather than a character with actual agency in the story#if that makes sense#anyway thats all to say yes i agree lmao#asks#i just wish we got more of it tbh. not him being a bit of an asshole necessarily lol but just like. him heing a real Character#we know he wants to go to Stanford and i dan think of a bunch of reasons off the top of my head WHY that would be#but ultimately those are just my ideas jot snything that is actually explored in the show#i guess i just miss when this show was an exploration of character

Love-hate relationship with the Yrliet's spirit stone breaking storyline because on the one hand, I feel like the thing with Eklendyl in Commorragh created a misunderstanding that didn't need to be there but on the other hand....yeah even if I square it she *should* still be able to find a stone and someone to attune it to her. But on the other other hand I think I get what they were going for but the epilogue makes that point unsatisfying.
#idk if that makes sense or not#but it dead souls ≠ living ones so the chess piece transfer doesnt necessarily mean he can just Pokeball Yrliet into a new one just as easy#but also it KINDA makes sense her spirit stone breaks and why itd be harder to get her a new one#shes a living adult w a lot of experiences and theres a reason you start attunement as a child#and as she says she chose her bond w the RT over her Craftworlder loyalty#BUT#Corsairs exist and potentially although we dont know cuz GW Elf Lore is like pulling teeth#but if a Way Seeker could attune her she might be able to get a new one#it just depends on how strong “being a humanlover” is a negative soul weight for a fresh attunement#which i dont see why it would be#but i think that scene is maybe inspired by what happens w that Incubus in Dark Son#which while not by my fave author does give better context to why its not easy to “just get one” even if you physically have one on hand#although too as i already said a lot of things only make sense if you forget Corsairs and their vague lore are an option

Oh, I understand it now
#for years I've met people who mourn over not being someones favorite#how strange#ive never exactly felt like i could pull away from all socials and feel disproportionately... alone ?#im unsure hpw to phrase it#i could stwp back#and im not sure folks would continue to reach out? its not even necessarily a negative thought#but everyone is busy or has their own people#im too late in the game to forge lasting friendships/relationships woth folks#it isnt bad! its nice not to be Needed for once#but its strange to realize the difference between being needed and wanted#its a weird feeling of being alone#im still slowly trying to reach back out to the connections i have who have been patient and waiting for me#its just strange to look around at the folks i prioritize and go 'ah#i'm not necessary here. i have Nothing tying me to these people'#faize faints#everyone is busy i dont blame yhem ofc!! im glad folks have their own people#its just. interesting to take a step back and look at the friendships i prioritized and realize i prioritized wrong#i probably shouldn't be chasing new friendships. i should probably be nurturing those that i have. and im sorry.#anyone waiting on replies im sorry#ill better manage my energy#(nobody here)#edit; well#the people waiting for replies are here#the folks who ive been fixated on are not#alden if u see this youre exempt youre Special /lh#but no i recently started pouring my time and energy into places that dont need it. they have their own people. i am simply a fill in for#when their people are not present#and thats okay!#i am happy my friends are happy#i think i yearn for the mutual feeling of best friends

as someone who initially did feel uncomfortable when i saw the word theyfab gaining traction among trans women i followed on instagram like... over a year or two ago, i think its really important to not like. immediately go out and start talking about how its misgendering you specifically or misgendering some hypothetical person who you think it might be directed to. you want to protect your community and people you care about from words that you think are uncomfortable, that's an understandable goal.
over time I realised that what was a mere feeling of mild discomfort for me was nothing compared to the very real lived experiences of trans women that had led to the use of this particular word. the second thing i realised was that my discomfort with the word stemmed from the fact that i would not like to be called afab because i don't like to be associated with the word female at all. but that isn't the kind of context where trans women use that word. they use it for people who themselves keep bringing up their agab and their "afab experience" or "female socialisation" and so on.
if i constantly kept bringing up being afab in discussions with trans people, i can't be surprised when someone turns around and calls me afab. if i keep talking about how only nonbinary afab people can ever possibly understand what its like to be nonbinary afab, then i can't be surprised if i start being called a theyfab. conversely, if someone around me kept talking about how being afab confers some unique experience of gendered oppression to them that trans women would never understand because they're amab, i would ask them why they're so obsessed with their coercively assigned sex.
like, i thought we as a community understood the need to see agab as a coercively assigned status and to move beyond the false narratives of "female"/"male" socialisation.
if you are someone who has recently found out this word exists, and has mostly only heard TME people paint it as some kind of slur that trans women are throwing left and right to misgender people, no, that is not the case. atleast, it's not trans women who are doing that, nor did they ever intend to do that. you are being polarized against trans women based on misinformation and manipulative use of implicit transmisogyny that makes people very quick to see trans women as Bad for being justifiably angry or even just talking about their shitty experiences in trans communities both IRL and online. ask yourself why a trans woman being angry is so scary to you. is it so unheard of for women to be angry about being shut out and talked down abt their experiences?
where have you seen the word theyfab used? you, the reader, only you, with your own eyes/ears. have you merely heard from a friend or some tumblr user that they heard someone swear that this word is being used on reddit?
if you have seen- you yourself- this word start taking off among terfs or transphobes or transmed circles, i won't doubt that. but i will ask why your response to that was to then turn around and harass trans women over it. how are trans women to blame for a bigot using a word in a different, worse way? are the trans women elite secretly helping the transmeds and terfs become more transphobic because they weren't transphobic enough? or maybe it is much more common and easy for words to be taken out of context online and start being used by people in bad faith? how is there any benefit being conferred to trans women from the use of a merely descriptive word? did you think calling trans women terfs will somehow stop actual terfs from using this word, because terfs are definitely famous for listening to trans women?
you can be uncomfortable with the word. you don't need to use it yourself. that's probably a sign that it doesn't apply to you because you probably aren't the kind of person who spends much time talking about your agab the way people described as theyfab do. honestly, if someone used it to describe me i would be uncomfortable too. i'm supposed to be, because the word isn't a compliment. people can be annoyed by me. that doesn't mean i was called a slur or oppressed. it means i should probably rethink my actions and have some conversations about my behaviour so that i can treat other trans people better, and also question flawed beliefs i might have about my own self and gender.
and if you are an afab person who wants to talk about your experience with oppression you faced in relation to being afab or being seen as afab and maybe you see it as something akin to misogyny, wouldn't trans women be the most relatable people to you in the trans community? aren't women the primary oppressed class under misogyny/patriarchy regardless of agab? so what does it say about someone if they want to include and align only with afab cis & trans people in discussions of misogyny/sexism but not trans women?
if you disagree with anyone being called theyfab, do you also disagree with trans people invoking being afab as something that makes them incapable of oppressing other trans people? because if you do, you are actually almost on the same page as trans women! or are you okay with people talking about being afab, but not okay with anyone else referring to them as theyfab for the behaviour of constantly talking about being afab? do you see the dissonance? i would encourage you to seek out trans women talking about actual examples where they felt the need to describe someone's behaviour as "theyfab," and then you can decide your answers to these questions. no one is saying there is some "afab privilege," but afab trans people can and do perpetuate transmisogyny, and unfortunately there are real instances of trans people using being afab as a justification for being transmisogynistic towards trans women specifically for being amab.
even if you disagree with the term, maybe you can see this as someone in your community using language you're not all that fond of, but realise the need for people to find language for their experiences even if that language isn't yet perfect, and not let that incite you into assuming that they hate you. this kind of polarization can make you easier to manipulate and make you withdraw from large swathes of your community, especially trans women. this exacerbates a vicious cycle of not understanding their experiences and therefore ending up more likely to have a negative bias about anything and everything trans women do.
do you really think isolating yourself from half the trans community is the best way to create any realistic imagining of how trans people interact with gender in society? its a very dynamic and nuanced thing, and no trans person is gonna figure it out alone.
#tbh i think being bi and nonbinary has given me a thick skin LMAO cause I've hard to get used to my communities being talked about in ways#that are ultimately valid critique based on lived experience even if i personally find them to be a bit mean... shrug#i dont think every negative comment is necessarily oppressive or x-phobic#and as an afab trans person i once again find myself in a position to maybe try to reach out to people in my community who are falling for#transmisogynistic rhetoric

I feel like I am. Transcending.
#speculation nation#not good or bad necessarily but i am just sooooo#scattered. directionless. everything and nothing at the same time. does this even make sense?#not transcending in the sense of experiencing infinite joy. but rather discombobulation.#i think ive had too much caffeine. that's probably not helping.#all up in the air with emotions outta reach. floating. i reach out and touch one and it drifts away.#dont know how to relate to others. forgetting how im even tied to others. why they would even care about me in the first place.#i need... to come back down. need to feel more grounded. though im not entirely sure how to do that.#maybe i could go to the woods. bike a half hour out then walk and walk and walk.#it's not too hot today. i think i need the reminder that i exist.#yeah. yeah. i think im gonna take a trip to the woods today.#negative/#tagging just in case because. fuck if i know what this all is.

Something about how being desperate-animal style mentally unwell makes you lash out at people who reach out to help you & then they’re too afraid to reach out again. So you doom yourself to drowning alone
#shitboxposting#sorry im thinking about my mom again. i do not know how to deal with or help her & it's nauseating#no small part in how i write bark tbh.#one of my buddies many years ago told me that dumping bad feelings on people that arent prepared to deal or help me with them#just pushes them away from me & i REALLY. didn't want to hear it back then but good fucking god i needed to learn that lesson#& now i watch other people make the same mistake and i do not know how to help them !!! cos shit dude i cant handle your feelings when#i cant even handle MINE#like i dont know man. its not necessarily intuitive 2 control but if you are very negative in your interactions with others#it pushes them away from you & the things you're bringing to those interactions

・❥・ mr scarletella headcanons



{ who doesn't love a tall 8ft ghost dressed in all red thats a huge creep? i know i do!!! }
ᡣ𐭩 -he's unnaturally flexible. considering he's a ghost, he can bend and twist in ways that could kill a normal person.
(ive heard people say he doesnt have joints, either)
ᡣ𐭩 -knows everything about you. your favorite show, how you're feeling, everything. scarletella uses this against you sometimes. not necessarily in a negative light, but considering they dont know the meaning of boundaries, he's a little bitch sometimes.
ᡣ𐭩 -after the scarlet rain ending, he'd do literally anything you ask. clean up for you, kill some person thats blocking the way, the list goes on.
ᡣ𐭩 -extremely jealous. you cant convince me that he wouldnt start like vibrating with anger the moment he sees you speaking to another guy, bonus if its another human. i like to think he killed mr. human because of that.
ᡣ𐭩 -adding onto the jealousy topic— mr scarletella doesn't get too jealous of the other monsters. its more and less with some. more so to mr crawling, less to mr chopped.
ᡣ𐭩 -knows what you're doing all. the. time. its like a sixth sense (did i use that right) for him. he knows who you're with and what room you're in. that scene when you're hiding in the vent? he didnt call you out for funsies. too lazy.
ᡣ𐭩 -we all know mr crawling is like a dog— but i think the same about mr scarletella. he'll secretly follow you around everywhere. even if you dont know he's there, he is.
ᡣ𐭩 -very big stalker vibes, although if you're doing something requiring privacy (ex; showering, changing, restroom) he leaves you to it. oddly, when you're done doing those things, you immediately feel a pair of eyes on you again.
{ me after not writing for MONTHS to come back and write about some otome game i paid 14 dollars for
all jokes aside if you're reading this im SOOO sorry for being gone for so long and btw if u followed me for jjk content im sorry again......i'll try and post jjk again but huys im so inconsistent with my fandoms its horrendous. BUT TAKE THIS!!!! :D }

Quackity was right to kill off cQ 100%, and not just as a way to be fully done with dsmp and the racist loser fuckass that's the face of it
cQuackity deserves the rest. cSlime is right hes. tired. so fucking tired and burnt out.
he was wronged so extensively over and over until he became no different than the people who hurt him and he knew this, he was aware of it every second he lived whether he acknowledged it or not
there comes a point where youre in too deep and he was and he knew it. so he tied up his loose ends (saying goodbye to Slime) and doubled down on his suicide bc for horrible people like him with so much blood and corruption on his hands and so much destruction and unhappiness around him no matter how many bandaids he slaps on that flesh wound, thats the way out. and its tragic but true. he was as much a villain as he was a victim in the end
there was never gonna be a cQ redemption arc. i dont necessarily think he was utterly irredeemable but it was simply a route that doesnt fit the character.
because what would a "happy ending" for cQ even look like?
he had no one else after Slime left, hes incapable of trusting anyone including himself, hes TERRIFIED of giving up even an increment of control, the only home he has is a giant monument of how long and hard he tried to bury his trauma and grief and anger and how desperately he tried to escape everything he went through by burying it in exaggerated grandeur and riches and power
surrounded by loved ones we trust is usually what we think of when we hear happy ending. cQ is more or less incapable of that, he has no loved ones to speak of and no ability to trust people. being alone and "at peace" can be a happy ending, but alone isnt peace to cQ, he'd likely just dwell on everything that's haunted him for so long. making something thats all their own and built with their own two hands is another common happy ending. cQ did that and it was a sham and only caused him more pain.
he was fucking tired and too deep in everything he learned to believe after everything he went through. a final rest where no one can hurt him anymore and he doesnt have to fake his happiness and stability and protect himself with mostly-fake power and wealth is whats right for him. its fucked up but that's the reality. he's a tragic character
i'm personally super satisfied with the endings he chose for these characters of his and i've heard about way too many people who are being way too negative about it. and an obscene amount of people who apparently hate-watched the stream. i will honestly just be blocking those people. i loved what Quackity did and i think cQ's end makes sense.

Just wanted to tell you that i love your Nightmare and Fresh headcanons and personalities ^_^
I love how your Nightmare is such a menace 😭, i dont necessarily enjoy when people make him dadmare (to each their own ofc), so seeing this nightmare is so reFRESHing! I love how you show us his thought process too, its seriously so interesting to see how he thinks
Your fresh too! He's such a silly goober
Seriously, chefs kiss
Thank youuu! X]]]
[Not ship] [Just, so much yammering under the cut]
I am also, ahh, not the most interested in dadmare... I prefer when he is genuinely cruel and an awful person, because I like when characters are just the worst :-][I do feel like I sand off many of the hard edges though, even still... bad habit of mine, to try and make them more palatable hehe]
Also a reason Nightmare is so interesting to me is as a tool to show more of Fresh's characterization off. Most of what I see with Fresh is either ignoring how morally grey he is, or characters helping him get "better." Nightmare though, I feel like he could really show off and feed into Fresh's worst habits.
Nightmare would do very little to make Fresh stop being so existentially terrified of death, I think he'd even feed into it or try to make it worse; its useful to him, it keeps Fresh close. Nightmare is powerful, and if Fresh is so scared all the time, it means it would want to have a strong ally to protect it.
Also the lack of regard for others/using others in self interest. Extremely self explanatory, I think they are just enjoying meals together X]
I also think Nightmare treats Fresh different to the rest of his gang; the gang is useful in what they can do For Nightmare, and only producers of negativity second. Fresh, however, would probably not be a very public ally to Nightmare, and wouldn't provide that sort of thing. His use is in his own suffering, and the suffering of the host he's inhibiting. Which means Nightmare cares less for using him in more practical ways, and more for just Keeping him.
This leads to Fresh getting more special treatment, almost akin to pampering HAHA. Nightmare needs to show that Fresh would have a better time With him than Away from him. He has to balance what he wants of the relationship with the fact that Fresh is liable to bolt if He's not providing enough to Fresh. [And I think escaping, fleeing, is one of Fresh's strong-suits.]
Also sorry gahaha, you had such lovely things to say about my nightmare interpretation, but I just went off about freshi and how he's affected by the relationship.
#fresh#fresh sans#fresh!sans#nightmare#nightmare sans#nightmare!sans#fresh & nightmare#utmv#undertale multiverse#puppydraws#puppy barks#puppyyips#ukuban#also I always smile when I see you in my notes... you have been following me for a while... recognizable face [pfp] :-]

the chara comic you posted is awesome! i really love the way you color things!
personally, i think chara would not be okay with seeing the monsters be killed, even to "see everything about them because they love them". if i interpreted the comic correctly, and you were suggesting that they would think it's worth it to "see everything", i'd like to ask: why do you think that?
i'm not trying to be confrontational or anything, i'm just curious about your interpretation of their character
hiii firstly thank you for enjoying my comic!! i worked pretty hard on it so im really glad people like it!
i had to think about this question for a while, and i guess this is my answer:
i think that while chara was alive, they weren’t okay with seeing monsters around them die, and wouldnt kill them themself, but that doesn’t mean they were ‘pure’ and against killing altogether; they did want to kill the humans from their village, and getting the chance to do so was presumably one of the reasons they were willing to commit suicide. after all, it seemed to me like their plan was just as much of a revenge plan as it was a plan to save monsterkind, and i think it’s a common interpretation that they were stewing on those negative feelings after death for a loooong time.
though i suppose that’s just my reasoning for their capacity to kill. in terms of them wanting to “see everything,” i intended for there to be a few different meanings/implications for this:
1. the more literal comparison to the player, relating to how we do the no mercy route not because we hate the characters, but because we love them; we want to see everything they have to say, even if it means hurting them, because we’re too attached to the world undertale has to offer (though this feeling depends on your personal experience with the game)
2. the less literal, more diegetic comparison to flowey, who has cycled through numerous timelines, “reading every book” and “burning every book” so to speak, i.e. seeing everything the world has to offer — not out of love, but in a desperate attempt for entertainment, since he couldnt feel love himself. hence the line, “you need more and more and more love, but it’s never enough. so you stretch everything thin until it breaks.”
3. a nod to chara’s tendency to push things to its limit in general. things like them filling water glasses all the way to the top, or 9 being their favorite number. but their desire for extremes (such as their plan, which was pretty extreme if you ask me) doesnt always end in success; sometimes it ends in dire failure.
this, along with the fact that no matter what interpretation of chara you may hold, they generally might not have been the greatest person. which makes sense, right? no one is gonna be entirely good or bad. if anything, people tend to portray more of the ‘bad’ side of chara we see in the no mercy route. and while chara interpretations historically DO tend to be overwhelmingly (and inaccurately) negative (insane killer facemelty evil demon and all that), it still feels wrong to me to do a complete 180 and say chara was completely good and normal and hated dying and death and everything related to it. (not that this was your interpretation ofc, just using hyperbole to describe other interpretations ive seen in passing)
before this gets wildly too long, the point ive been trying to get to is that there’s Nuance. i dont think chara is “okay” with killing monsters so much as them seeing it as a means to an end, in a sense; the person doing it is trying to achieve something outside of just Piles of Asriel's Monster Dust. to “love something so much you want to destroy it” isn’t usually a conclusion most normal people come to, but these three entities in question — the player, flowey, and chara — are definitely Not Normal, each in their own respective ways. all of this is to say that chara doesn't necessarily condone the player annihilating monsterkind or flowey toying with people's lives, they can understand the sentiment behind it and Why we do it.
i could go on but the TLDR is that: while i think chara has the capacity to wish death on others in general, the main idea is less about what they think is morally right or wrong and more about their reaction to OUR (and by extension, flowey's) decisions; it's less so chara "being okay" with monsters dying (in fact, i tried to convey that they're not all that happy about it, with how they look down at flowey rather Menacingly on that one page) and more of them analyzing the situation as a whole and reflecting on their life and sentiments.
DEEPLY SORRY FOR THE WALL OF TEXT but it was fun to get my thoughts out more clearly! usually i like to leave comics like this more up to the reader's interpretation, so if others saw it differently than me, that's totally okay, these are just my personal thoughts ^^
#mailbox#undertale#i hope this makes SOME amount of sense i had to come back to writing this multiple times

ok here is my personal interpretation of some of the batfam family and/or found family dynamic:
bruce & dick: found family. yes they are legal family but this is because they're weird and freaks about public facing personas it's only because adopted father son is the only thing they can say to other people and seem normal their strange mess of father son brother mentor student partners is the foundation of their relationship and they are found family
bruce & jason: family. father & son end of sentence. yeah they're freaks about it but they're family
dick & jason: family. so i havent read all that much where they interact but i think they're brothers in that they are very strange about it
dick & tim: family. brothers. they were weird about it and then got less weird about it and now are normal brothers. as normal as brothers can get you understand what i mean
bruce & tim: found family they've got that strange mentor student partners thing going on and the adoptiveness is also because of the being freaks about public facing personas
tim & jason: i also havent read all that much where they interact look im basing most of this on like the 90s and jason is dead ok. but tim being how he is about jason while hes robin and jason is dead is a kind of brothers to me. but i also think its worse than that so. i dont think i can say anything definitively but im going to go with family with negative connotations. legal family.
tim & steph: found family. they start out as weird friends and become weird significant others and they are too entwined in each others lives in a strange and inexplicable and undefinable way. more than friends and not siblings and not exes even though technically they're exes. found family.
does steph interact with dick. does she interact with jason. hm. this is where i make stuff up: found family in the sense of they have no idea why she's here and they're not that close with her but she is close with tim. found family in law. yes.
steph & bruce: found family with negative connotations. they are part of each other's lives and it's bad and no one likes this and it's worse because sometimes it is good sometimes it's truly good and that makes the worse parts worse
babs & dick: found family. started out as friends and became intertwined in each other's lives in a way that cannot be defined. sometimes they are dating and sometimes they are divorced and sometimes they are friends and all the time they are inescapable
babs & jason: im making stuff up. they are found family in laws who are also friends when jason is robin.
babs & bruce: coworker can be a type of found family. flavor of found family that is divorced coworkers
bruce & cass: family. father daughter. father daughter with negative connotations and also complicated about it. despite not being raised by him cass inherits his neuroses
cass & dick: i think i've only read where they interacted like twice? putting them as legal family. they are legally family and that's a tie that means something to them but not necessarily close like siblings like dick & tim are siblings you know what i mean. friendly legal family
cass & tim: hm. difficult. they are like. found family to me. their dynamic is not sibling but friends doesn't fit them either. intertwined in an inexplicable way.
cass & steph: found family found family found family. there is no label that can encompass their relationship. they mean so much to each other in a way that words will never be able to describe. they live in each others skin. they are not family they are not friends they are not lovers and they have been assumed to be all of these things but their bond is unable to be pinned underneath any type of word.
cass & babs: found family. mother daughter mentor mentee student teacher sisters in arms agent and handler. all of these things and none of them. undefinable and inextricable. found family
steph & babs: found family in laws who are also friends. not necessarily close enough to be found family but they are found family in laws and also friends
babs & tim: friends who are found family in laws. friends first found family in law second
cass & jason: ??????? making stuff up time for me. legal family derogatory maybe? legal family like the family when you have a big family gathering and you have no choice but to invite both of them because its a family gathering but everyone who cares about their sanity and physical health will do their best to prevent them from talking about politics with each other at the dinner table or something
#too many of these guys.#anyways do you see why i avoid writing large casts in batman fanfiction now#i would start going insane#i have time for 1 pov character and their relationship with maybe 3 other people max#because even then you have to think about those other 3 people and their relationships with each other#and do we see how complicated it gets.#anyways i was trying to do it in order of appearance. didn't even get to duke#partially because i havent read all that much of him#read we are robin but from what ive picked up on#relationships duke gets most significant development with?#him and bruce: found family derogatory. energy of duke found bruce as a wet rat and now he's stuck with him you know what i mean#and duke & cass but i havent read outsiders yet. vibes wise id say friends first found family second#i think duke and damian could be like brothers though.#christ i did not even get to damian#there are too many of these guys#i simply dont care about alfred sorry

"the dwemer dont think like you and i. they are incomprehensible, unknowable, and alien. they can even divide by zero. now do you see why they are so impossible to understand?" actually this answers many questions. division by zero is not entirely impossible in much more advanced math, just something that will crash computers bc the number it generates is either positive or negative infinity (I AM OVERSIMPLIFYING IMMENSELY. THERE ARE VARIOUS FALLACIES WITH DIVISION BY ZERO AND MANY ATTEMPTS TO DO THIS. CLOSEST ONES LEADS TO THIS RESULT AS FAR AS I AM AWARE).
which honestly makes it make sense with them fucking with the heart causing them to go poof--not because they necessarily zero summed, but because lorkhan is described as a "limitation" more than he is a god. if a race can easily comprehend and work within infinite numbers as part of their basic understanding of mathematics and the world, imposing limitations on them would be incomprehensible. it would be like when you send dragons crashing down with the dragonrend shout, except the dwemer were not immortal idea eating "time machines". they were in fact still mortal.
this also makes sense in that to approximate dwemer blood in skyrim you need to get blood from literally every elven race on tamriel. barring like, maomer which live in the sea (?) and elves not on tamriel.
like. obviously i cannot grasp the infinite. but trying to understand it in art is also not impossible, nor is it impossible to explain. utena has worked for it. try fucking harder kirkbride.

That update was SO GOOD- I immediately went to your blog the minute I saw it LMAO (sorry for the like spam)
WARS WARS WARS!!!! HE IS SO PRECIOUS HERE- I love how we get to see a bit of his perspective on the dungeons vs battleground, and how respectful he is. He could’ve called it immoral to loot ruins/temples, but instead he highlights how they went “under Ganon’s snout” and were stealthy and resourceful. In comparison he was constantly in the limelight in his Hyrule, no where to hide or lie low someplace fortified like a temple. He doesn’t discredit their methods, just simply points out the battlefield also had its advantages. He’s a good mans!!!!!
I really hope we get to hear more about his experiences though, both for his character but to also see how the others take it as well. How different it must’ve been for him, what it must’ve been like to constantly be fighting day in and day out, and not just exploring like we often see in other games, how intimidating it must’ve felt for Wars to be the first anomaly in the cycle in quite some time (if he knew of any past legends).
Also!! Do u think there might be some doubts towards Wars from the chain because of this? We saw how Twi and Four (and maybe one more?) were questioning to each other how unusual it was for a warrior of Hyrule to not do a dungeon, and how he may not know certain monsters. That worries me on how that could reflect their view of Warriors. Will they start to doubt his strategies? Will they waste time arguing if they think he hasn’t fought a certain monster? While I don’t think they won’t trust him, I can definitely see some concerns sprouting about what he, and by extension the rest of the chain, truly know about other monsters.
I also like how Time didn’t react negatively at Wars’ statement, beyond just an odd look. It goes to show that it isn’t an issue for him because he’s seen Wars’ skills and trusts that even if he has different experiences, he’s still valuable and knowledgeable. Also- with Wars being right behind Time and sorta backing each other up, I think we’re starting to see more of co-leader/second in command Warriors and I LOVE THAT- PLS PLS MORE CO-LEADER WARS PLS!!!!!
Anyway- thems be my crazy thoughts on the update. I hope this means that Wars can finally get some proper recognition and love as we learn about him through the comic!!!!
ALKSJLKSJ don’t worry about the like spam i dont care at all. Also sorry it took me to long to answer this! I really wanted to make sure i could sit down and read the whole thing, i’ve been a little busy running around today
I LOVE HIM SO MUCH, he’s gonna hate the dungeons so much i think… Like I think he’ll like the puzzles and such, but I don’t think he’ll appreciate how cramped everything is or how monsters can drop from the ceilings like that. But yes I also love how he doesn’t like, call their dungeons stupid or anything he’s just kinda like “Am i the weird one for not willingly walking into a death trap- apparently”
I ALSO REALLY WANT TO HEAR MORE ABOUT HIS EXPERIENCES, and I want to see him compare more things about the war to what the others have been through! It’d be so interesting to see Jojo’s take on all that
Personally, I don’t think they’ll necessarily DOUBT him because of his lack of dungeon experience. They’ve seen how fully capable is, how strong and reliable he is, he knows what he’s doing and he’s a strategist and THEY know all that too. However, I can absolutely see him suggesting they do something in the dungeon and everyone else going “you NEVER do that first in a dungeon oh my god??” because he just doesn’t know how dungeons work. I think they might look out for him (?) more, in the sense that he’s out of his element. He has a leader personality, and he’s going to have to let the more experienced people in the group choose what to do in the dungeon and help figure out puzzles or look for hidden hallways and treasure and such, cos he’s not really used to doing that kinda stuff. I don’t think the others will doubt his abilities, I guess I just think they’re more in shock that he’s just never done that?? And it’s something they’ll just be consciously aware of (sorry if that didn’t make sense my brain is mush and my head hurts 🥺)
TIME WAS SO FUCKING OVER IT, I LOVED WARS LOOKIN AT HIM LIKE “Am i weird 🥺” AND TIME STARING BACK AT HIM LIKE “🤨”. I’m genuinely obsessed with that shot of them looking like the disappointed parents. Every time those two interact I do a little spin because i am gods most normal man ever (and i headcanon they’ve met before this. i know it ain’t canon but i still like the idea of them being close in actual lu canon)
the best part of this update was all the people who were like “Wars fans… I get it now.” like we won. we won guys, we won

What do you need to know/what's hidden from you
Pick a group tarot reading +channeling
1. 2. 3.



Group 1
Seems like you guys are trying to maintain or gain balance while dealing with some type of conflict. Either of these could be internal or in your outer world. Some of you guys are being made to feel less than because of this. I want to stress I say less than as in you're better than you think and or feel that you are. If you're waiting for someone else to help you it's looking like the best person is you. Other energies could try but they aren't that powerful , at least I mean the ones that would or could in your situation or you hope to do that are not as powerful as you are in regards to whatever you hope for them to do in your situation in terms of helping. Maybe you want other people to defend you or just have your back. You're more powerful to be standing alone and you might as well stand even if you are alone in a situation like this. You all definitely have more potential than you think and feel like you do and I'm seeing this being especially, but not necessarily, in the money department. Seems like they want you to consider just shooting your shot at things. Try selling something or doing something to get a job or a raise. Something you haven't done or possibly wouldn't have even considered doing or considered something you really could do or manage. Worst case socially it seems that people are talking about you possibly in a negative light but it does not even concern you. These all seem like small fish and they need to work together. And even together they dont really amount to anything or accomplish much in life while you are ten fold way more powerful. So it's like because of your strengths and everything you do stand out and it's hard for these people not to talk about an elephant in the room but they can only speak mostly negatively because that's who they are as people. What's hidden is that both you and the world around you are a lot better and more beautiful than you're currently perceiving.
Group 2
I'm gonna keep it so real. For better or for worse someone really wants something with you. Like this immediately came off super sexual. This person or even people holy... This energy though seems almost pushy or too confident it's almost way too intimidating or rude or something. They're actually a chaser because they want to go for things to fill some type of void within themselves. Well, it's moreso like they're running away from something and by them doing that it's like they're reaching for stuff to pull them forward. But they don't really know what they want in all aspects of themselves and I don't feel like they know you as much as they would think or claim. For some of you this is someone completely inappropriate like a boss or family friend who is an older man. Regardless this person seems like the type you want to take a step back from and get a full understanding of the entire picture that is them. Especially if youve felt like someone is feeling this kind of ways towards you this is confirming your intuition. And on the surface it does seem mostly sexual. I want to reiterate this person is actually very confused on the inside.
Group 3
It looks like you all have been very protective and or defensive more or less. You or someone else seems to just want to keep to themselves and what they have and enjoy everything they do have /have earned. You all might be missing opportunities especially socially or in work /career because of this though. You just might be being too closed off. But personally I would say it's not necessarily a bad thing to be defensive of your energy.you just might be missing out on something or some things and this may then cause stagnation. Boredom is never fun. Follow your intuition. Some of you just need to keep a better eye out. Some of you need to step out of your comfort zone and actually do more outside of your own little bubble. It's coming out that you all might end up rejecting something from the universe. Not good.this is a time to heal. Especially issues from childhood pertaining to things like abandonment and rejection if that fits ok. Also for less of you paranoia or fight or flight in some way or something ok. And if you're not safe you need to do everything you can to transition to a safe environment ok.

you've said a couple of times that you are some notable degree of amicable to existing socialist projects, but the few times you've mentioned them directly you've only ever had rather negative and flippant things to say. does the application of Marxism by Cuba or China or so on not fit well with edwadist thought?
i don't think this is really true tbh and quickly searching my blog has pulled up several different kinds of "defenses" etc in various directions. but im obviously not uncritical either, so im not sure if this is one of those instances where any amount of criticism is deemed too much etc.
i think they're interesting projects that we can learn a good deal from and are often defensible in their own right as political experiments, but i also don't necessarily think their worthiness in those regards stems from their proximity to my dream of socialism or whatever. like im sure contemporary china is a relatively decent place to live and probably has lots of good things going for it, but i dont think its on the road to communism. and i dont think it needs to be for us to admit that it has accomplished some pretty impressive things. of course im even more sympathetic to what china was trying to do 60 years ago (which ive definitely talked about), but my relationship with maoism has changed a lot over time for sure.
also worth saying that any "application of marxism" is not my bag at all. so whatever merits i might believe these projects to have, them applying marxism (whatever that means) isn't really one of them and usually has something to do with my criticisms tbf
