Not caught up on TRT, so not sure if this has already happened. But are you planning to add more Dom Jane at any point? 😊 Same for heavily dom Matt/devil.

I AM! They'll both continue to have their Dom moments in between moments where no one's particularly in charge. I see them both as switches so we all get to have some fun, no matter if you like Dom!Matt or Sub!Matt, and same with Jane. 😂

Our next scheduled smut chapter(s) is, in fact, a wild Dom!Matt versus brat mode Sub!Jane. He's absolutely unhinged and feral and she's feeling not particularly agreeable as a sub and therefore she may or may not use the phrase, "Why don't you come over here and fucking make me."

Which goes exactly the way you'd expect, that woman's gonna need to be carried home in a gd bucket.

Did i mention they are on a rooftop

A really lovely profile and interview of Mary Reber, who owns Laura Palmer's house, and appeared in Twin Peaks: The Return.

She's helped turn the house into a sort of pilgrimage site for people who feel connected to the show or identify with Laura. And she has some wonderful things to say about David Lynch as a director and human being.

the whole child military stuff is obviously one of the not amazing things about camp jupiter (although to be super forreal you'll never convince me that kids are safer at chb than cj), and the books do casually describe the legionnaires as "kids", but the fact that you need to serve ten years in the legion before being eligible for retirement almost definitely means that a significant amount of the legionnaires should logically be adults during hoo. like if you joined the legion at 12 years old you're gonna be there until you're 22 even if you don't care about living in new rome, as hazel does say that "most" demigods go into the mortal world after serving their time

the way this is phrased really does make it seem that you have to serve ten years after entering the legion ("you do ten years", "after, you can leave whenever you want"). so not great for minors to be essentially signing away a whole decade of their lives to a military institution (especially vulnerable minors, which demigods often are) and it's pretty yucky that the kids are literally having the SPQR branded onto their bodies. but while cj is known to promote some harmful teachings (we hear in son that showing weakness is unacceptable, etc) you honestly don't even see many roman characters who are like. excessively cruel/hardened and brutal and unforgiving personality types, i.e. you have dakota and gwen (both hold positions of power in the legion) who seem friendly and rather relaxed for what little screentime they have

but this quote actually counters how a lot of people groan about "so the kids are in the military and the adults are safe in new rome????" like that's not a perfectly true statement. camp jupiter is not shown to specifically recruit children - they largely accept whoever comes to them from lupa's wolf house (hazel is probably an exception) and as far as we know you could be joining the legion at age 19 and retiring at age 29 (maybe unlikely but not impossible). like frank didn't get there until he was 15 going on 16, and he's going to be there until he's 25/26 unless he/hazel/the senate change up that rule about 10 years of service

(also something something about new rome university and how old you might need to be to be enrolled? and what kind of education do you need beforehand to get in there? like a high school degree? so does camp jupiter have k-12 education available for legionnaires? or is the only thing you need a recommendation from the gods?)

furthermore jason joined the legion at a younger age than anyone else - when he was 2. he should have been eligible for retirement from camp at age 12 but he either chose not to (I don't find this unlikely) or he wasn't able to for some other reason that's never addressed. but after hoo he doesn't go back there anyway so he's functionally retired and he already served his time as of like 3 years pre-tlh. like he's not even obligated to the praetor role anymore so he could have lived a nice peaceful life in new rome if he wanted to but he just didn't. not even new rome and all it had to offer was going to make him happy

[tanadrin]

also i think it's bizarre there are people who see the house/wilson dynamic as homoerotic. they have such a normie mid-2000s-guys-ragging-on-each-other friendship. like obviously they are good friends. but the idea there is any sexual or romantic tension there is hilarious.

Me, trudging through the Malady Mania suddenly consuming the GGG fandom: Hm, I need to put something positive into it for a change (besides the other brave souls also trying to ignore the horrors)...

So!

Reasons below

Patapon 1-3's Megapon: -First introduced in mission 26 (Volcano Guardian) in Patapon after defeating the beast Ciokina, it is the tallest known unit (other than Dekapon) with a pension for AoE attacks but low hp.

-Different drum combo produce a variety of attacks; soundwaves, sonic balls that attack multiple enemies, and even a chance to create fire/burn damage during Fever Mode.

-Patapon 2 Megapons can be split into multiple classes, with one notable variant Babassa just so happening to have a medium chance to inflict 9999 fire damage to a boss enemy (from the wiki).

-...While it's not entirely important for og Megapon, I thought it was funny to mention. Ah yes, that one band kid that just so happens to harness the power of the sun, and they look so happy about it too! :)

Great God Grove's Megapon: -Originally owned by King, the previous Godpoke before the main character (who's also called Godpoke by the Grove locals) and the soon-to-be God of Eloquence. The MC Godpoke found the Megapon after it fell into the boat they were riding to the Grove from the Spire, and believe me, it's a pretty long drop.

-Has a built-in feature of "taking the words out of people's mouths" via word bubbles, as well as ejecting items and said-word bubbles back at people (with varied results).

-Megapon was also called "the heavenly horn" by one of HobbyHoo's gods Thespius Green (the name hasn't caught on yet).

-The fandom theorized Megapon is sentient to some degree, either after years of work with King and/or from the accumulation of the messages they sent (sass is optional).

So if you're part of the GGG fandom, welcome to the funky world of 2008-2011 drum beats, a journey of holy guidance (ie. religious crusades) by the Mighty Patapon to IT, some tiny but persistent dust mites, and the now growing hype for its spiritual successor Ratatan.

If you're part of the Patapon fandom...Believe me, it's a wonderfully delightful puzzle game about communication, Gods, 1970-80's vibe of a soundtrack (courtesy of Louie Zong), and the coming A-pocky-lips. If you just so happen to stumble upon it cause of Click Clackstration, Inspekta cramps, Super Migraine Bauhazzo, and so much more to surely come... I would like to apologize on their behalf and happy Women’s History Month :')

Davrin and Assan were foretold

If you’ve paid any attention to Thedas lore, you will at least have heard the mention of Garahel, hero of the Battle of Ayesleigh that put an end to the Fourth Blight, canonically said to be the most famous Warden in history prior to the Hero of Ferelden.

The name “Garahel” stands for much of what the Grey Warden Order values most and would prefer to be known for: Pride. Honor. Selflessness. Warden Garahel was a notable elven hero whom even humans must revere for his bravery and sacrifice as slayer of the Archdemon Andoral.   The Warden’s legendary charm, intelligence, and keen political sense drew countless allies to battle against the darkspawn hordes of the Fourth Blight, a fight that lasted well over a decade. In addition to recruiting Wardens from the Anderfels and Orlais, Garahel negotiated the support of Free Marcher royalty, creating a united army that finally broke the infamous siege of Hossberg, setting into motion the end of the Blight. War and circumstance shaped the young elf into a canny commander. He was very aware that Blights are not defeated by a single hero. He once noted to his sister Isseya that “heroism is just another word for horror.”   Less well documented is the person behind the legend: the golden-haired elf, whose green eyes twinkled as he shared a story, told a joke, or flirted shamelessly. It is written that people from all walks were drawn to Garahel, as his manner and wit drove life’s unpleasantness from their minds and allowed them to think of a better tomorrow.   As a Warden recruit in the Fourth Blight’s early years, Garahel made his first griffon flight in 5:12 Exalted on a beast he’d only just met and would dub Crookytail. The odd griffon was not solid gray like most of his brethren. Crookytail’s feathers were tinted with dusky brown; white patches decorated his chest and belly. One of his ears flopped forward, and he had a distinctive, bushy tail with a prominent kink in it—giving him his name. Nevertheless, Crookytail’s strength, speed, and exceptional ability to find advantageous cracks in darkspawn formations made the beast and his rider one of the Grey Wardens’ best battle teams.   From their first flight, made to rescue the nobles of Antiva City from the pressing darkspawn hordes, to their final battle at Ayesleigh in 5:24 Exalted, where they sacrificed all to slay Andoral, Garahel and Crookytail were said to be inseparable. – The World of Thedas Volume 2, 2015

Does any of this remind you of someone? There is no doubt Davrin and Assan are meant to mirror Garahel and Crookytail.

Davrin stands for pride, honor and selflessness. He is a notable elven hero revered for his bravery and sacrifice, especially if he is chosen to lead the second team in act 3. He is charming, intelligent and sets into motion the end of the Blight by fighting in Hossberg (Wetlands). War and circumstance shapes him into a leader. He is aware that Blights are not defeated by a single hero. We’re all going on about how attractive and witty he is. He goes to battle alongside a griffon he has only just met, and said griffon is more brown than gray or white, with one floppy ear and a bushy tail. Together they make one of the Grey Wardens’ best battle teams, and from their first battle to their last, they’re inseparable.

Garahel had a sister by the name of Isseya, and it’s exactly the Isseya you think it is.

Even during the Fourth Blight, few knew the name of Garahel’s younger sister, Isseya. While her brother was outgoing, charming, and prone to heroism, Isseya was more modest and enjoyed studying and building her formidable magical skills. Her focus and determined nature, however, made her arguably as important to ending the Blight as her brother. He landed the killing blow upon the Archdemon; she helped ensure the survival of those most affected by the horrors of the age after Andoral’s defeat.   One of Isseya’s most important achievements was enchanting makeshift aravels: wagons, boats, any conveyance large enough to fit a number of people. These were fastened together, held above the ground by her skillful magic, and pulled by teams of griffons. Isseya conceived of and executed the first of many journeys using the aravels to move citizens of Wycome out of the Blight’s path and safely to Starkhaven.   Isseya’s other major impact on Thedas reached beyond the Blight and was both a blessing and a curse. As the desperate times called for equally serious measures, she turned to her fellow mage Calien to learn the basics of blood magic to fight the darkspawn. In trying to save a griffon that had been tainted by a darkspawn bite, she used a process similar to a Grey Warden Joining and inadvertently started a chain of events that led to the extinction of all griffons in Thedas.   However, it is rumored that, shortly before she left on her own Calling, Isseya found a way to preserve a clutch of griffon eggs, protected with a complex weave of magical guards. It is written that she hoped a like-minded mage could recover the eggs and perhaps find a way for the mighty griffons to again soar through the skies of Thedas. – The World of Thedas Volume 2, 2015

Not only were Davrin and Assan foretold, the entire Grey Warden storyline was. BioWare planted that seed almost ten years ago as something to potentially return to in the future, and they deliberately tied it into Veilguard.
