Call me homophobic, but I don't actually think it's great representation to stick a complex, dynamic, newly-realized bisexual character permanently with a flat, boring, underdeveloped love interest just because that was the first guy who showed interest.

Literally all I want for Season 2, or fanfics, is for VOX to use the fact that Alastor was wounded defending the hotel and disappeared and Charlie et all didn't even LOOK FOR HIM - not AGAINST Alastor but to try and get Alastor ON HIS SIDE. Cause you know for all his being obvious about how much he hates Alastor what he really wants is Alastor on his team, joining the Vees, being his friend (and maybe more) again, and if he sees a chance to get that he will jump on it.
Please, please, please. Vox has the footage, and from what we know, he hasn't released it to the public yet. I am so expecting him to hang it over Alastor's head and rub it in Alastor's face that no one went looking for him.
We also know that the Hazbin crew didn't see Alastor's fight, and as far as we know, they don't know the extent of his injuries either. When/if Vox does release that footage, I want that to be when they realize just how injured Alastor was.
He literally almost died and all they know is that he disappeared halfway through the battle. I'm so curious about what they think made Alastor to leave. If they knew he was super injured, I can't imagine Charlie would've left him to his own devices, or at the very least, she would've checked in on him from time to time.
So do they think he just upped and bailed on them? Do they think he abandoned the fight? Do they think he just fled like a coward the moment he was injured? As much as I make fun of Alastor for that fight, I don't think he fled out of cowardice.
I mean, he took a MASSIVE hit right across his chest. From the top side of his left shoulder all the way to the right side of his torso--almost to his hip. Look at how big his wound is!
Tumblr media
Who wouldn't retreat after taking a hit like that? I'm pretty sure (aside from Sir Pentious getting holy blasted to ash) out of all the Hazbin crew, Alastor suffered the most damage from that fight.
Not only that, but the hit was deep enough that blood was dripping down Adam's guitar.
Tumblr media
I'm not being dramatic. Go back and rewatch that scene. Alastor's blood was dripping down it. It wouldn't have gotten on Adam's guitar to that degree if the cut was only surface level.
Alastor wasn't just bleeding from his chest, but he was bleeding from his mouth too. Either slamming into the parapet made him bite his tongue, or he was coughing up blood.
Tumblr media
And considering how many sparks and bits of light were coming off his cane (green light in particular, which is the color that highlights his abilities) it has obvious significance to his power.
And it was cut in half.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
That is the face of a man going "ohhhh...I'm fucked."
Adam had the upper hand. Alastor was in no condition to keep fighting.
If he stayed, he would have died.
Him retreating was the logical thing to do.
AND NOBODY KNOWS THAT. Nobody but the Vee's.
When/if the Hazbin crew see that footage (or see the extent of the wound themselves) I hope they realize just how close Alastor was to dying and understand that he didn't leave the fight for no real reason. If they give him any flack for retreating or not taking Adam down, I want them to feel bad about it when they see why that was.

What would've happened if Chosen went back to live with the CG after the Showdown?
Chosen doesn't know how long he's been standing there, nor why he was standing there in the first place. It's not like he can't leave; he could easily fly and run away from this unpleasant place. Yet his feet seem to be rotting from being in the same spot for a long time.
Why is he here?
Was it because of loneliness? Regret? Guilt? Or maybe something akin to revenge?
No, it can't be.
He promised he wouldn't end up like him, let alone someone like Noogai. Guess that's the weight he has to carry for being the Chosen One. Again, something else to blame his creator for.
This inexplicable need to feel responsible for everything that happens around him, to be worthy of an imposed and painful title he didn't ask for. Maybe if he was called "normal" or "Regular" as a stickfigure, everything would be easier for him, something that could show he's only the victim in all of this. Because that would mean it isn't, and it won't be, and it's not his fault, no matter what he does.
He's only defending himself, surviving, yes, surviving, as always.
And now it seems like fate forces him to also protect them
Because they have no idea whose PC they've been living with and Chosen does, so if something happened to those kids, Chosen isn't sure if he would be able to sleep at night again. Just because of the knowledge of the past.
No matter how much he changes his name, to Chosen, he's still the selfish creator he used to be.
Behind those glasses that reveal nothing of his true intentions.
Noogai.
Or how the kids call him.
Alan.
«What a stupid name» Chosen thinks bitterly
"Hey!, You okay?" Suddenly, a worried voice snaps him out of his thoughts— that orange kid who refuses to accept he saved them all. He was standing a few feet away from him, while his other friends were hovering nearby but not interacting directly yet.
Chosen sighs again
«What did I get myself into?»

nah but it's so wild because like. It's almost a normal 'sibling growing up' story, where you understand why the younger ones feel betrayed and abandoned, but it hurts to see their anger or closing off directed at the older sibling who literally just went through a normal developmental stage. But then they both grow a little and it all smooths out even better than it was until a few years down the road you got the second half, where the older sibling feels betrayed by the person they've always seen as a kid becoming their peer and standing more on their own. And it's all understandable and it all hurts and it all smooths over.
Except with tmnt 2007 they're all adults together and Splinter really said 'It's time for Leo to go on a journey of self-discovery, he needs opportunities for further growth and he shouldn't be relying on us anymore. The rest of you should go outside less but I guess you can have jobs if you want.'
like bro they would've been on that journey together, the 'growing up without me' angst was literally unnecessary because they were all growing up. At the same time. Together.
Being the most skilled and obedient student was the only mark of maturity Splinter was willing to recognize when his sons were all becoming adults in front of him and he manufactured a divide that literally did not need to exist
#there are other things they needed to resolve#but honestly a lot of those things could still be traced back to splinter trying to use competition to motivate them#'i've chosen one of you who is the best and he's the only one who's allowed to grow up#in the meantime he's not even nice to leo#gives him no guidance about what he's supposed to get out kf his training#no warning that the ancient one is going to be so harsh to him#doesn't try to go after him or check in on him when he stops writing??#i see a lot of 'why didn't his brothers go after him' in leo angst fics and yeah but like. why didn't his father#why didn't the adult who is in fact his father go after him when he was gone for an entire extra year#wha the heck is going on there?#03 splinter would never#and i can only assume that the way he walks in to see donnie getting yelled at and about to punched and responds with#'donatello why aren't you being strong where your brothers are weak? our family is lost if you don't take the fall for everything'#is indicative of how he normally treats leo and sure enough the second something goes wrong he's#yelling at his son who just got back from being missing for a year#blaming him for not being able to control a team that splinter has made minimal effort to preserve while he's bee away#and also why does Splinter even want Leo to control his other sons#and we see both Raph and Mikey hurting so much from being overlooked#I wonder if they know how the lack of attention is a layer of protection#i wonder if that's part kf why they're so angry about it. because they're protective of leo and later donnie#and if so probably in a subconscious way#that's enough tags yellow

KILL!!!!!!!!!
#my post#this is so mean. why did i make this#but also....... the gun is in your hands now#i'll admit that it's my fault for putting the gun in your hand... however i've no say in what you choose to do with it#will you pull the trigger and accept whatever happens from now on? will you give yourself into the role forced upon you?#no one will know anything if you don't say anything. there will be no consequences or repercussions to this choice#but you will know. and you will need to live with that knowledge for the rest of your life#a gun not fired is like an itch not stratched#in the end i have no control over what you do... but free will is a funny thing#the brain is very susceptible to suggestion... everything we see and experience will remain with us in some way#if that's the case then how much control do we really have in our lives? how do we separate what we really want vs what we're told to want?#things like hunger... desire... they're all things the body asks for. but are they things that we truly want?#or are they merely a mechanism built into us for the sake of survival?#everything blends into everything. your past actions will inform your current actions. you're the only one who's ever lived your life#you're the only one who will ever live your life#little variables and experiences we all share... but the order varies greatly from person to person. everything is just a series of events#the way i see the world is different than the way you see it regardless of how similar they are#what choice will you make now? and how does it differ from the choice you would've made a week ago? a month? a year? does it differ at all?#does free will truly exist? i think it does... but not in the way most people think it exists#you and i... we might differ on that thought. or we might not.#regardless of whatever i've been rambling about right now... refusing to make a choice is still a choice you make. life is ironic like that#does one of them really have to go? that's for you to decide now#i've merely chosen to put the gun in your hand. to make you aware of the possibilities#so i hope you realize what power your choices have#dca fandom#daycare attendant#yeah sometimes i just say things that i think are deep but they're really not#i hope the choices i make have an effect on others. even if it's just one person...#if i can make even just one person think about something they wouldn't have normally thought about then isn't that a win?#life is a series of choices... ''it'd be great if you could see a figure of light by the time you die'' ♡

"the michael kandel translation of "the witcher" short story can't hurt you!!"
the michael kandel translation of "the witcher" short story:
Tumblr media
#WE HERE IN K L O T H S T U R#the witcher books#[ Nobody liked that. ]#i like how the first two 'main' translations (like published for mass market circulation ones i mean)#were like 'no we can't call it a strzyga... no no...'#(maybe like: 'the english readers won't understand...')#and then when the game and book hit (i.e. both beginning with geralt fighting the striga)#everyone was like 'whoa that striga was really cool'#idk idk enough about it yet to say anything definitively#but my experience and all the other reviews and experiences i've read#from other anglophone readers with no prior exposure to polish or broader slavic myth or culture#has been just like: 'whoa i never knew about that... that's really unique and cool'#and on the flip side. originally witcher gained popularity in part because of the familiarity of the fairy tale#and so despite that witcher in general takes a lot of everything from across europe#if i may just summarize it really obtusely and without taking the precaution of nuance and all#although the first two translations were very much intended to feature polish writers and writing#in the way of the actual translation it feels like they tried to diminish its 'polishness' for the english reader#like for example in chosen by fate itself there are no diacritics (though idk maybe that was a lack of capability of the printing press)#it FEELS like that i'm not saying it was intentional but#for example when you don't say 'leshies' and instead say 'bugbears' that feels like diminishing it#but then later when the witcher's quote-unquote 'polishness' is allowed to come through clearer#then it actually is part of why english audiences were like whoa this is interesting i like it :)#you know real-life events are stories too. and i feel like this is a story with a good moral: 'be yourself'#this is also one of the prime subjects where i disagree with sapkowski lol#because re: 'death of the author' theory type stuff. authors cannot control how their works are interpreted by their audiences#works get interpreted on their own fortunately or unfortunately#so though i think it would be misled to engage with the witcher as if its ONLY good quality is its 'polishness'#i think that also it should be acknowledged how its unique take on culture made it appealing to both domestic and foreign audiences#i think where the problem lies is when we believe it can't be both polish and a blend of multiple cultures and traditions#because like yeah. author is an arthurian weeb

When the POV character is (a bit of) a cunt and his parallel (who is something he could be if things were different and vice versa) is bound to him inseparably through the sheer power of obsession and the refusal to let go, creating a power dynamic that can be likened only to Munchausen by proxy but exhibited by Aesop's frog and scorpion.
Well I think that's a little bit gay. In a very bad way.

it must be sad to be someone who can't find and doesn't want to look for the meaning in anything. thinking art is boring, thinking the long, drawn-out semi-abstract explanations musicians and artists give before they show their work is meaningless fake bullshit. it must be such a dull world to live in where one doesn't obsessively examine every word, every note from a work you love to find the beauty and the message and meaning and purpose in every grain of sand that gives it form. how sad.

What if stick!Alan gains powers at some point? He’s fidgeting with a random item and accidentally resizes it somehow, and he just silently stares at it wondering how that just happened and what it means
god that'd be funny. SC is so excited because HOLY FUCK THAT'S SO COOL!!!!! and alan is just unsure if he should be worried about this ability or not. i think it'd be fun if he could do similar things to what agent does with his array of tools as well. plus like. that'd be hella interesting when vic comes around
