they hated illario because he was a d1 yapper who was bad at assassinating people and was so annoyingly drunk and grief stricken at his cousin’s wake that viago had to drug him to shut him up (so what if he was also the guy who set his cousin up to die/disappear) . and also for working with the venatori and selling out the antivan crows i guess.
#illario as a guy who regretted his power grab but had no choice but to double down after lucanis came back is interesting to me btw#not entirely canon compliant to how the story is set up but yeah#even illario going WHAT . when he finds out lucanis is alive i am choosing to believe is him panicking because#zara did not in fact get him to die. illario thought he would die there. he did not. (what has he done) (shit. he has to do it himself)#and double on that . caterina didnt trust him enough to tell him#once again reminded he is dellamorte the lesser !#and still he knows hes not even a good crow. he couldnt actually kill lucanis. he cant actually bring himself to kill lucanis!#so ofc he spends the next act trying to manipulate him into leaving and for lucanis to believe its his own doing#and only when all of this fails (too soft to even kill his grandma btw) he has a public brawl w lucanis#that ends so badly for him that he is humilated in front of all the remaining talons#hes literally my babygirl#illario dellamorte#dav spoilers#dav#txt#rook: im sorry abt illario :/#viago: dont be. he had many unredeeming qualities from before he was a traitor

I will not take any Chiron slander
That centaur is blameless and tired.
The only criticism i agree with on him is the fact that he really shouldn't have made Percy tell Nico Bianca fucking died
#wolffox speaks#percy jackson and the olympians#pjo Chiron#Chiron pjo#pjo#'He's making child soldiers!' The gods fault. The fuck do you want him to do? Go against them? He literally is only alive cus he's needed#'He's raising them to die!' The monsters AND the gods fault. He's actively training them so they can live just a little longer#'Percy and Annabeth are his favorites!' Kay. It's from Percy's pov of course we're gonna see him interact with the main characters a lot!#“But new rome—” Yall realize Chiron is operating on money from a STRAWBERRY business. You think he's gonna be able to build a city from THA#And another one I saw:#“He's letting children work at an infirmary” You mean the Apollo kids? The kids that can literally heal people magically?#Like what do you want him to do? Yes its fucked up that kids have to fight but what choice do they have?#Refusing a quest from a god seems like a shit idea and if they didnt fight in the war EVERYONE dies#it's a shitty situation but you gotta choose the lesser of the evils to survive

#my art#ocs#mayumi#kentaro#they get their own tags now :3#theres a lot of intent behind mayumis designs but i fear if i try explaining it now i will not do it justice like at all#so thatll come eventually. but shes pretty interesting i like thinking about mayumi as much as i dont really like what she does#<-- person who made her LOLLL#also to explain why kenny has two names#in the early 20th century on ogasawara all the obeikei citizens were made to take japanese names#his parents were alive during this time and took japanese names but were expelled from the island shortly after#most obeikei people who took japanese names during this time would be called both names without much discretion & his parents were the same#then the US took hold of the islands again and his parents returned#this time period is usually referred to as ''navy time'' and kentaro was born at the tail end of it#so that he wouldnt stick out as much from the rest of the family his parents decided to give both him a western name and a japanese name#but they ended up choosing a japanese name that was similar enough phonetically to his western name that it didnt really matter#because everyone just called him ''kenny'' anyways#kiru technically also has the butcher surname on paper but that was an accident LMFAO#kenny put it on some of her documents when she was a baby by mistake and no one ever bothered to change it#okay these are some long ass tags BYEEEE

call me crazy but i wish we saw even more of katniss grieving prim.
i dont think ive finished the second Mockingjay book, but in the movie esp it feels like 'the sister i sacrificed EVERYTHING to save was blown up and burnt to a crisp in front of me. im kinda sad, ig. im way more excited to get knocked up and have that baby tho!!!!!!!!!!!!'
#also kinda derailing on my own post#i hate the natalist ending of the katniss 'legacy'.#it perfectly captures how people really are tho#completely crippled with trauma and literal phyysical disabilities#in a dying nation and a dying planet#and yet you still CHOOSE to birth people into that world to suffer#katniss shouldve been able to live her life. for herself.#her whole life was caring for her mother; for prim; for herself; for peeta#dont even get me started on how much she worships peeta for NO REASON to the point she full on tries to kill herself EVERY OTHER PAGE#even when prim is alive. and young. and katniss is fighting to get back to her#katniss at the reaping ' im going to survive for you so i can come back. i promise'#katniss five seconds after getting dicked down 'i would literally; and i do mean literally; rather kill myself than go five more seconds#without that cock in my life'#like suzanne hello???#can we maybe not?????#can we maybe have a strong female character who prioritizes herself for once?#i wonder what prim felt like watching the games seeing her sister ready to kill herself over some moid she basically just met.#honestly the resignation i feel from prim from mockingjay onward feels unintentionally intentional.#the way prim sadly says 'you dont gotta worry about us. we're behind you' when katniss wanted to fight the capitol ((only bc#peetas life was in jeopardy; mind you)).#the way she didnt even tell katniss she was promoted to a doctor until a while after it happened bc she knew katniss was too peeta-#obsessed to care or pay attention#you see it in gale. the way he VERBALIZES how much katniss wants to kill herself for peeta and prioritizes him above absolutely everything#the way shes written is so annoying in some aspects and i hate it bc its so good in others.#ok and to call back on her having a kid being the worst ending to the series in THE FIRST MOVIE. in the first ten minutes#know what she says? with conviction and sadness?#'i am never having kids.'#katniss in the beginning of the series cant even be called the same character as katniss at the end of the very first movie.#she is so outrageously different and there isn't a single narrative explanation for it besides 'natalist agenda'.

Idk if I've ever posted about it but I am almost constantly thinking of a twins! Garrett and Marian au except I don't think I'm ever gonna do it. My main like. Idea with it is that one of them would die at the end of act three. Idk I just feel like it would compliment the trends of da2 sooo nicely. End of the prologue one of your siblings dies. End of act 1 your living sibling can either die, get sent to the wardens (a death sentence), or become a Templar/circle mage (permanently isolating them from your family), so no matter what you do, in some way you're loosing them. End of act 2 leandra dies. So, naturally, if Hawke had a twin, it would make sense for them to die at the end of act 3. Whether they would side against you in the templar/mage conflict, or just be in the wrong place at the wrong time, I don't know, but I think about it constantly. Hawke's life and the story of da2 is ultimately a tragedy, and having a twin wouldn't change that. If anything it would only add to it
#dragon age#hawke#da2#hawke da2#i still do like aus where everyone is happy and alive but if i were to ever make a twins au for the hawkes. this would be it#i also feel that the twin you didnt choose would take a rivalry path. or maybe each of them has a set personality?#idk i never think that far ahead. anyways!!!#unlike carver and Bethany i think they would stay with you the entire game as a companion

What's your favorite thing about Skyward sword? :3
ohhhh theres so many things i like about it i rlly dont think i could choose one. i love the main characters and their story and the dynamic between them, i love the side characters and npcs, i love the environments and the style of the game itself. i even like the mechanics LOL [the motion control ones. still not used to the button controls]
i love skysword so much, if i had to say what first captured me with this game i think it'd be a mix of the characters and the story, i just remember being so taken with it, and the more the years go on the more interesting they get to me
#ty for the question :-]#sighs...skysword....#sorry i know this isnt one thing but. god its hard to choose LOL#didnt even mention the character arcs#or the loftwings....god i love the loftwings#or the dynamics between different ppl ON skyloft that makes it feel more alive#i could rlly go on forever#AUGHHHH#txt

when i briefly mention cults i want to make it absolutely clear i mean literal cults. like not just extremist churches that are harmful and manipulative in their own way (although got that experience too) but like.
(general cult talk under cut)
going on ‘retreats’ since youre a child where members of your church would plan with your parents on a time to ‘abduct from your house because youre never prepared to be a testimony for god. literally being driven for hours until lost in a bus where they had the windows darkened in the back so it made it difficult to see especially with the rural surrounding. no phone service if you had a phone. where they would wake you up every half hour for a week or two (or a month if it was a summer) and had no clocks. being led to hike miles in the dark and mud as its 30 degrees and then shoving you in a rope maze in the middle of the woods for you to try and get through until sunrise and how it was a message about needing the light (god) or else you'll be trapped in darkness and that'll take you to hell. they emotionally berate you to give confessions and you had to list your sins outloud repeatedly over and over and then stand there as people tell you how youre a failure and disgrace. but no worries! jesus will fix that as long as you devote your life and happiness to him because your time on the earth has to be miserable to prove your dedication to the heavens and to get your crown of jewels.
i was “homeschooled” to be isolated further and because we couldn't afford the one public school, the people in the cult(s) were the only people i knew and got to see and several of them killed themselves and then the cult would spend a hour praying God has mercy but knowing prayers are not gods will and that our pleads for mercy are meaningless because they're in hell. my priest gave me modern study bibles with underlines on homosexuality said its disgusting and a sin and that suicidal people are weak and god is disappointed and how selfish it is because you're questioning gods judgement in creating you since the moment youre created, you are covered in the blood of sin and your life is a debt you will never pay off.
they would teach things that werent in the bible and if you said that's not true/the verses dont say that then you got belittled for being stupid and not understanding and gaslit to believe you cant trust your own judgement or thoughts because theyre always wrong or misguided. youre told you're empty and hollow without god and to purge yourself from your “sin” so that you can be a vessel for him while sobbing at the thought of what happens if god purges him from you because what will remain? youre empty without holiness but youre repeatedly taught you arent capable of being holy—what will fill the hole that is your self without this god and religion??
and again, i live in a VERY isolated area where we don't have buses or stores or anything. outside of this cult and self hatred and this god that needs you to be hollow for it to deem you worthy—there literally is nothing else. its isolating, its encouraging self hatred and misery to deem your worth, its dangerous as a disabled queer. I have never had a physical in person friendship but ive had more than 5 adults tell me how they would kill me in detail. i dont have family i can talk to. i dont have friends around me. i convinced my mother for me to stop going to the church in about 2019 or so because for a long time i would attend despite not believing in that shit purely because it was the only way i could get out of my extremely abusive household until it became too dangerous there too where i thought it would be SAFER to be in a house where a gun is pointed to my head every few months.
like i make jokes because lolz religious trauma ammirite! and its not a big sensitive topic despite... trauma. but like... when i say i was raised in cults i literally mean fucking cults LMAO
#this isnt a truama dump in the sense of im sad because im literally chilling here but like#i dont think i ever gave context for any cult mention which?? i dont have to because who do i have anything to prove something to.#but like. mutual slumber party where i just said something lowkey concerning while talking about the horse fucking book#like i didnt even share the fucked up details this is just a general ‘when i say cult i PROMISE im not throwing that word around’#anyways im just like bruce wayne fr fr (was in a cult and no sense of self worth unless serving a devotion of your own choosing since#without that obsession i feel empty and have felt guilty about being alive since i was a kid 👍)

Oblivion did such a great job with its UI, the choice of fonts was phenomenal, the constant presence of kingthings petrock as subtitles and as the player's journal evoking medieval books, the quest updates framed with floral ornaments that look right out of manuscripts, the little icons tied to specific quests and questlines and the different crests that appear in your log to signify your rank in different factions
#tes#oblivion#litchi.txt#sorry I got hit in the feels with this stuff#Im a sucker for the borders drawn in medieval manuscripts and I really love the use of those during the quests#plus the little illustrations that we get for Everything#quests factions birth sign EVERYTHING#dont get me started on the illustrations that appear Once when you are choosing your class like they didnt have to design all those#for one throwaway moment in the start#but they included it!! because its such an important moment#Im also just a sucker for anything related to fonts that look like schwabacher#I should just set my computer's default font to kingthings petrock at this point its such a nice font#i hope tes6 takes notes and brings this back I think it would look nice#the whole game has a very medieval story vibe and I know this is such a stupid thing to say#but yeah it just feels like looking thru a manuscript or at gothic church frescos#its like the manuscripts came alive#writing this also made me realise that this is something arena and daggerfall did less successfully because of the hardware limitations#and now Im emotional cause oblivion despite all the flaws and things people keep complaining about is SUCH a love letter to the franchise#I could make a whole post on that too. but oblivion is a love letter to arena and daggerfall change my mind

#need to get this out#oh the ideas i am cooking#M would quit the OSI at the start of s6 bc she would be reassigned so she said fuck this .#<- really have been thinking on this SgH personality and whatnot would so fit w her better than like his total character change#like the parental advice . the overstepping . the everything she would own that .#JVS i think would become the new vd in that i think they would just put his head where the BM's head was#and he gets a new frame so hes back to his old self but its slightly taller than how he used to be#torn between idea of R is hired by the OSI to revive him similar to vstein but i like the idea of JVS taking over vd because of what#that adds to TM arching him#i think it would play out like JVS kills VD in that moment and billy as a dr has to choose to save him via replacing VD -> JVS is alive now#world if s6 and s7 had more eps and s6 didnt have to be finished in s7 and then tossed aside bc it really felt like they just had those eps#there to finish off s6#thing to think abt is the weirdness of JVS being alive again and how that affects the world i think the OSI would tell TV to keep it under#wraps for now so he is mostly kept inside the home and it pisses everyone off#my art#i almost feel like i need to tag my rewrite stuff sorry i love the women so much and also dont think brock is more boring than hatred so#im rewriting all that shit

My therapist often says "we cannot control our emotions, we can only control blah blah blah" ok Jennifer maybe YOU can't. I have decades of practice and am very refined at it.
#nobody in my family told me one of my aunts is dying#i received the news via Facebook message from a cousin who lives states away.#he said she is 'choosing to stop dialysis' so this has been an ongoing thing.#the only reason i maintained contact with my brother is because i THOUGHT he would keep me appraised of major events.#but.#the last funeral i went to was a mistake.#i. cant go to this one.#so i guess i might as well not care.#always felt bad for her. the family bullied her something awful. she was a sweet lady#havent spoken in years. too sympathetic to her torturers. couldnt be trusted enough to reach out.#in another universe in another life. in a normal family. we'd have been friends i think#but we didnt have any of that we had trauma and abuse and mental illness.#anyways.#much easier to think that way when its too late.#impossible to reach out when they're alive.#its just a shame is all. but i will remember her fondly#as the homicidal demon-posessed witch my family believed her to be. sick as hell.

i just had a very long complicated dream about some very ooc homestuck kids. jade might be rooted in some form of fanon at least but i dunno
#posts#i could b wrong abt jade. i really liked the way she was in this though#she was all the yay happy im jade harley niceness but also like. very self-righteous and impulsive#and very emotional. and stubborn. and protective of people she thought were being treated unfairly#she had an extreme reaction thinking someone was in danger cb of an outburst so she herself had a massive outburst and was panicking until-#-she found out they were okay and alive for now and then switched to just clinging desperately to them and getting very angry at anyone who#didnt show the same level of care and protectiveness for them than she was#like she was fully creating a two sides issue and staunchly choosing a side#and then when it didnt look like things were gona go any better she zapped her and her friend and one person who seemed kinda-#- neutral-positive onto a spaceship to escape as far away as possible#so. that. she was consistently the most easygoing with this random guy my dream isekai'd into the situation. which at times made her an-#-enabler or something bc she prioritized his comfort over any change ever even ones that could have been good for him#johns main part in this Story was he kinda just had an autistic meltdown and then pov guy had a similar situation not long later#on a larger scale and people in general were just even less nice about him because he was older and hadnt grown up there lol#also this dream was very much from random guys pov which was My pov#but it wasnt Me i was just fully some character. anyways#after pov guys massive outburst he runs back home where john is and john is not very sympathetic#he was very much projecting the shame an embarrassment he felt bc even though the people there at least knew him they still werent nice to-#-him either#so it was a ''i know from experience that You should know better than to have needs in public'' type deal#originally rose was there and then my brain switched her out for roxy. im so sorry rose#but either way the lalondechild had such a murky existence and it only solidified into roxy at the end where the confrontation thing was-#happening. with the jade freakout#there was also some Superpower Awakening shit happening? previously mentioned w jade. but john when pov guy came home had a white streak in#his hair and jades went FULLY white when she blew up#so thats cool i guess. her hair went back to normal the next time she was seen on the ship#there was some montage shit going on#anyways. insane fucking dream. can i steal this shit and make ocs.#like i said these kids were pretty ooc. i feel like parts were definitely still rooted in some perception of the characters butttt#its was just one or two small things. idk man all i know is i am thinking so hard about this

The scene of Bill Boss shooting his gun going I WANT RESPECT and the meme "aren't you tired of being nice?" "NO I JUST WANT EVERYONE ELSE TO STOP BEING MEAN" are two things that resonate with me in a level that little else can. Like those are me.
#luly talks#i was complaining to blood about my dad and wouldnt you guess it i am once again pissed off at not being respected#not my time not my effort not my needs nor health#these people fail to realize they chose to have a kid i didnt choose to be alive. they're in debt with ME#but even beyond that this isnt about anything else other than basic fucking decency

i wish i had a choice. i wish i could rot. i dont want to be alive. i dont want to be alive. i dont want to be alive. i dont want to be alive. why cant it ever be my choice
#i dont want to live if i cant choose to stop#there is nothing more of me left of me for me to offer i am unkind and unholy and rotten#and ive bitten so many so few stick around to say otherwise#im stuck. stuck in a body i didnt ask for with people no longer beholden to me#if it were just me in my body i would have killed myself by now as a kindness#there is nothing kind about me staying alive. this is a cruelty. my death would be a gift and yet its refused#they would move on. already i know i will not stay in their hearts not kindly not fondly#ive left a horrible imprint on the world. nothing but harm#i dont want to hurt anyone anymore but my teeth are sharp and my claws forever out#it would be better then to rip it all out and leave myself to bleed from my filthy mouth and cruel used up hands#my life is tragedy upon tragedy and there is no end in sight. i am not allowed to make my own#whose to say that suicide is morally wrong#living like this is wrong. forcing me to live is wrong. i dont want this life anymore#i want this tragedy to be over. the cycle finally broken#if i am to be ugly throughout my whole life grant me the one wish to be pretty upon my deathbed#maybe they will do my hair and quirk my lips up into a smile and do my makeup so i am soft and loveable and holy#and then finally i could bring some joy. closure. and theyd cry maybe but soon theyd realize what a relief its been
