How did Time react when he met Sky? Judging by that sketch, his legend lived, but did a description of him survive? Does Tim's know he is chilling with a god killer?
Time’s reaction to meeting Sky? Terror. Just. Fear. I will start by saying that the Chain met Sky differently than they met each other. Generally, portals would drop them into foreign eras, and they’d seek out the hero of that particular time. But with Sky, they never went to his era. Instead, the portals brought Sky to them.
(I know I’m not explaining that well)
So when Sky just suddenly appears at their camp, the others immediately flock to him, asking a million questions, tending to his wounds, etc. There’s not much hiding who Sky is: since he can’t wear normal shirts anymore, his lightning scars are on full display, the Triforce on his hand is unobscured and- well, the Godkiller is described as a mortal with blood-red feathers, a terrifying winged man.
… Time knows exactly who Sky is the moment his lays eyes on him.
The others immediately figure out that he’s a hero, so they welcome him into the group with open arms. But Time, for once, sticks in the back. Upon meeting other Links, the Old Man is always the first to introduce himself, the first to welcome them and explain what’s going on. A kind man, a leader, the strongest of them all.
In the commotion, no one notices how Time shrinks back, how he goes quiet, how he averts his eyes and puts distance between himself and the newcomer. Gone his is friendly smile, his quiet reassurance. As everyone flocks to Sky, Time seems to disappear entirely.
I will also say! That Sky immediately knows what Time is. Time kept his godhood a secret from the others because, let’s face it, knowing that he’s a God would very likely change how they view him. He doesn’t want them to fear him, he doesn’t them to worship him. He wants to be an equal. (And to be honest, he’s not all that happy about being a God. Keeping that part a secret is freeing, honestly. No pressure, less responsibility. He can just be himself).
But Sky’s had enough experience with the divine to know a God when he sees one. And he’s never had a good experience with one: manipulated by Hylia, almost killed by Demise, forced to do the Golden Goddesses’ trails. Sky is just as afraid of Time as Time is of him.
… I have so much to say about these two. But alas! Plot. Spoilers.

Hello! I hope your week is going well!! Here’s a Sally/ Flo related ask!
I remember Sally saying ( in one of my favorite monologues in Cars) that Flo was the first one to take her in when she first arrived.
I would love to hear your interpretation about how that happened!
hi!! fun fact, i actually have a fic about this! -
otherwise, i think sally was about 19 when she landed in radiator springs. i think flo and ramone hadn’t necessarily wanted their own children, but werent against the idea of adopting - and dear lord, she saw this misguided and emotional teenager and fell into absolute motherly adoration. she offered sally a place to stay until she got back on her feet, but then it just turned into sally staying, and flo was NOT mad about it.
i think flo is very motherly in general! i think she certainly acts like a mother figure for lightning as well (although her bias stands with sally - if something were to happen, she would stay by sallys side over lightnings - but only for the first little while), but sally is her baby and she would kill for her daughter
ramone adores sally as well, he sees how much this maternal relationship flowed has with her means and takes a paternal role over her. theyre their own little family in the town and probably one of the closest knit trios of everyone. they were there for sally when she was going through everything awful following her abandonment of california. theyre her Family and dear lord i adore them

actually that ao3 post about calculating kudos-to-hits ratios to decide if a fic is worth reading has me so pissed off. someone put real time and energy into something they are SHARING WITH YOU FOR FREE on a site where you can quite literally filter and search by anything you want and you're STILL trying to find a foolproof method to find stuff that's "good enough to read"???
YOU ARE NOT THE TARGET AUDIENCE FOR EVERYTHING
you don't have to like or read everything in a given fandom or tag, but you also don't have to be a cunt about it and imply that it's not worth reading. this is the kind of shit that moves people to stop creating altogether, and to see people agreeing in the tags is so disheartening. absolutely unserious behavior.

What several levels of exhaustion does to a mother fucker.
I was listening to the album grow again by Moe Reen while making this. specifically Why Deny (The Climate of Our Love).
You could admit it's all on fire
And confess to loving me
This world is surely ending soon,
Our love is certainly something true
So why deny the climate of our love?
Theres so much to say about them. The world is on the precipice of disaster and yet they found each other, the successors to the emperor and empress titans. Did the emperor and empress wonder what their successors would become? did they wonder about who their successors would be? did they hope that they would find the love they had? or did they think the story of the titans ended then?
When Fearne was alone with Nana Morri did she ever dream about the people she has around her now? about sharing a bed, with no other expectations other than waking up together?
When Ashton found themselves left behind after the nobodies left him, did he dream about a group of people who listened to what they said and respected their words? did they ever dream of someone wanting to be with them just because they liked being around him?
when they were at their loneliest, was the thought of each other a fever dream?
I still stand as a firm believer that both Ashton and Fearne have two hands, but watching them grow closer together has been amazing. And I hope their relationship continues to flourish, platonically or romantically.

uhhh so the number four is associated with death in certain cultures, including japanese, which is fitting for the butcher’s son, yes but just remember neil was supposed to be number three and jean was supposed to be number four ,and in every draft but one jean dies. he is symbolically saved from that fate by dodging the number four (being given, instead, the number three which represents REBIRTH of all things - i made a whole post about that if ur curious) because it means he was never marked for death. so in this draft, where he’s number three, but was supposed to be number four, he comes so close to death - to the point where renee doesn’t know how he’s still alive - because he was supposed to die, doomed by the narrative, but that number three saves him. that number three represents resurrection, and so he doesn’t die like he was supposed to. because he’s not number four, he’s number three. he comes back. he transforms, he heals. he becomes number 29 (i will eventually make a post about jean and the 29)
neil, though, was marked for death. he had the number four tattooed on him, and he goes through his own narrative believing he will die by the end of it. his survival, however, is foreshadowed in the very moment neil thinks he’s about to die - when he is kidnapped. lola burns the number four - the signifier of death - off his face, leaving him scarred, yes, but not marked for death anymore. and so he lives. and guess what: the number 10 represents the start of a new chapter, that one cycle is coming to an end and a new life is starting, one that you’ve worked hard for. so for the number four to be burned off of neil, that tells us neil is going to live. and when neil becomes neil legally, he settles into the number 10 properly. and his new life begins.

endless love!
[ID Two drawing collage pages of Vash and Wolfwood from Trigun Maximum. In the first collage, top corner, Wolfwood looks upwards disgruntled with a flushed expression, lying against a pillow, as his hair is being pet by Vash's hand. Next shows Vash and Wolfwood from behind, Wolfwood with his top bare and hickies covers around his nape area. Vash lifts hair away from his nape and asks, "More?" Wolfwood nervously says, "No." Next is a side profile of Vash, his arms around Wolfwood from behind while Wolfwood rests his hands against Vash's arms. Next to this are two smaller drawings; Vash turns to Wolfwood and says repetitively, "Wolfwood, Wolfwood..." Wolfwood, not looking at him, says "What?" He finally turns his head and looks shocked as he exclaims, "So close!" Vash says plainly, "You just noticed?" Below these is a drawing of Vash and Wolfwood sitting together as Vash kisses and hugs him from behind with his right arm around Wolfwood's neck and his left hand around his side. He also has his right leg propped against Wolfwood's knee. Bottom of the page has a comic. Wolfwood looks annoyed, speaking to himself, "Where is that idiot?! Need to get out of town before--" A chat bubble exclaims, "Wolfwood!" The next panel shows Vash running from the townspeople, small text saying "Get him! Vash the stampede!". Wolfwood, mad and about to pull the Punisher off his shoulder, says, "Argh, you fucking dumbass!" Vash exclaims, "Ah, don't!" before pulling Wolfwood into a quick kiss. He then tugs on Wolfwood's collar and says, "There's no need to shoot, just run!" Wolfwood stammers, "R-right..." with a flushed, dumbstruck expression.
Second collage; Top left, Wolfwood spoons Vash in bed, his arms around his chest and the other beneath Vash's head. Vash has his hand on top of Wolfwood's as he sleeps while Wolfwood lies awake. Behind this drawing is faint sketches of Vash's face. In a small panel, Wolfwood hides in Vash's neck as he mumbles to himself "Stop. Stop thinking embarrassing things, Wolfwood..." Beneath this drawing is another of them in bed, Vash now turned to Wolfwood and a hand on his cheek as he kisses him good morning. In a simpler style, Vash wraps an arm tightly around wolfwood with the text "snork mimimi" next to him while Wolfwood says, "We need to get up. Spikey! HEY!" In this corner, there are faint sketches of Vash and Wolfwood; one of them looking at each other; Vash kissing Wolfwood's forehead; Wolfwood saying, "Hand" with an outstretch hand and Vash says "ok" behind a drawing of them holding hands, both turned away from each other shyly. Next is a 4 panel comic. First shows Wolfwood's face getting squished by Vash's hands with the text "squish" around his face. Next, his cheeks are stretched with the text "Chee--" Wolfwood then hits Vash's face with his palm, exclaimining "That hurts!" The last shows Vash on Wolfwood's lap, smiling to himself as he continues to have Wolfwood's face in his hands. Next to this is another comic; A close up of their hands, Vash holding Wolfwood's with both of his. He then kisses the palm of Wolfwood's palm and says, "They're soft!" Wolfwood looks at him with flushed cheeks, "There's no way that's true..." END ID]
