so much happened in this whole episode but i’m still on fig infiltrating ruben’s dream, making it look like the place where his friend was murdered, and then disguising herself as kipperlilly & repeatedly saying different variants of “somebody needs to take the fall for this, and it’s not going to be me. it’s going to be you.” while adaine as the elven oracle shows up next to her. can you imagine waking up from that, the idea of a horrible truth being pinned on you by your friend to save her own skin while the personification of fate and destiny stands there, almost as a promise that this is GOING to happen to you. we don’t even know if this kid is guilty. my god.
#fantasy high#dimension 20#fhjy#fhjy spoilers#fantasy high junior year#fig faeth#ruben hopclap#lucy frostblade#the rat grinders#adaine abernant#kipperlilly copperkettle#watching fig terrorize him like girl!!! we don’t even know if he’s guilty!!!!#this might just be for me but i do not think 5 teenagers willingly brutally killed their friend idk#like there just has to be some other element to it and i am very scared to find out what that was#what if they were put in a position where they felt there was/there was no other choice… like oh my god#my comedy brain is having fun but my ‘this is a teenager’ brain is in such deep distress all the time this season#the rat grinders i trust brennan to not make u cartoonishly evil so i am holding u as gently as i can in my confused shaky hands#also with the devil’s nectar i’ve been wondering why they all seem so well-adjusted & now i’m curious if they’ve been intentionally-#changing their memories in a way so that either the trauma is lesser or they think they aren’t guilty. idk#but it seems like from how gertie was talking she was making it more recently so the well adjustedness from early jy doesn’t quite add up#they could have another source maybe??? idk i’m just low stakes 4 a.m. spitballing here#there’s also the strong possibility that they’re aware of what happened but they weren’t the ones who killed lucy. idk who knows#the way you could probably devil’s nectar yourself into believing it wasn’t your fault someone died… CRAZY IMPLICATIONS!!! CRAZY IDEA!!!#anyways the bad kids & the rat grinders don’t ever have to like each other but i do wonder if at least some of those kids deserve a chance

#mrs flood who are you: time lord edition
#dwedit#doctor who#mrs flood#fifteenth doctor#the master#jacobi!master#tenth doctor#jack harkness#martha jones#twelfth doctor#ninth doctor#*#okay here is my argument: mrs flood IS a time lord but her presence here has nothing to do with the doctor#instead she's here because of ruby. she's seemingly part of/related to the pantheon of discord & we know that ruby is connected to them too#so i think that she was deliberately placed as ruby's neighbor by the pantheon/oldest one/ruby's mom/? in order to watch over her#it also explains why she was there to check on ruby in 1.04. once she realizes she's on the phone w carla she says 'nothing to do with me'#and she leaves. which implies that it COULD have had something to do with her. if it had been something else going on#ANYWAY. to get to the time lordness of it all. rn i personally believe that she's a time lord that's been hiding on earth for 50+ years#bc i don't think she recognized the police box as a tardis initially. that first quote should be taken at face value.#instead picture this: she's watching over ruby as per usual. a police box is there - weird but nbd. then it dematerializes in front of her.#she drops her groceries. she's shocked. she kinda looks scared. if she already knew it was a tardis why would she react like that?#so imo she knows OF tardises. she DIDN'T know the police box was one. and she's worried the time lords have found her hence the fear.#but when nothing happens and nobody comes at her she realizes she's still safe#later when she sees the doctor she realizes the tardis is his/he must be a time lord. he doesn't identify her but that's happened before#so then when she asks him who he is i think what she's actually asking for is his title. WHICH time lord are you.#bc lbr if she knows abt tardises then she knows about time lords and if she knows abt time lords she knows what it means for ruby#to be joining him - and that's why she wishes ruby good luck. meanwhile this is clearly the outcome she WANTS (them to be together)#bc she gets visibly upset when the doctor seems to decide to leave without ruby.#and for once i'm not master clowning bc the list of names the doctor gives out is VERY interesting. some of them we've never heard before:#the bishop; the conquistador; later he adds the pedant and sagi-shi and reiterates the bishop AGAIN. so i wonder if she's the bishop.....

i finished it, was kicked out of the game, and then spent the next 10 minutes drawing this. i will now go take a shower, most likely cry, and then go through the emotional turmoil of convincing myself to reset so i can do a geno run. i hate it here :D

AND THEN WHEN SHE TOOK THAT RISK THE WORST THING HAPPENED AND SHE NOW HAS TO#LIVE WITH THE GUILT OF BEING THE ONE TO. MOST LIKELY. KILL HER ONE AND ONLY DAUGHTER#ALL THE WHILE SHE WAS PUSHING AWAY HER CHILDHOOD BEST FRIEND AND CONVINCING HERSELF THAT SHE WAS IN THE RIGHT TO SACRIFICE CLOVER WHO HAD#BEEN ONLY KIND MERCIFUL AND JUST THIS WHOLE TIME.

Langdon: *clearly pissed that Mohan and Santos didn't call him for help with the seizure*
Santos: *takes the blame for Mohan because, as she literally explains later, Langdon is already pissed at her as it is, so there's no point dragging Mohan into this too*
The fandom: omg!! She totally did that on purpose to manipulate the situation!! She wanted to make poor Langdon into the bad guy and make herself sympathetic!!
#like...bffr#whatever you think santos's motives for 'manipulating the situation' were#(and i have granted seen a few pretty insightful takes as to why she would)#that is NOT what's happening here#that is a HEADcanon#so if people could stop stating it as fact that would be great#y'all santos haters claim she's arrogant and uncaring#and then when she DOES nice things you call her manipulative#like. ffs. are people not allowed to GROW#'but when she does this it's only been like 8 hours! she hasn't grown that much!' okay. but it's CANON that she did this to be selfless#so either she DID grow that much in 8 hours#or she is in fact like that at heart#i'm not saying she's an angel. she isn't#i'm not denying that she's mean + arrogant + abrasive. she is!#but she ALSO has a soft side#and she is clearly more comfortable showing that as the show goes on#whatever else you may think of her...that's canon#and i thought you guys LIKED the jerk with a heart of gold trope. hmm. i wonder what's different this time#trinity santos#the pitt spoilers#1x09

hey rememberthe reverse iterators au. are you ever going to post about that again because i think it was pretty cool!
pebbles when he didnt even get to try
[More of my reverse iterator au if anyone is wondering what is going on!]
#rain world#five pebbles#hi! gonna answer you in the tags :))) hope you dont mind!#so first of anon you should concider buying a lottery ticket. the chances of me answering an ask is very very low but here we are!#second of all awww happy you like my silly little au!!!!! have a rough comic!#i admit i think what i have posted is generally a fairly complete run down on what i think about for that au. i mean theres many things i#can expand on but well i cant really do that in any coherent way so you know :) it is what it is!#so instead im giving you a snippit of pebbles angst about it all because i have missed being inside the head of this guy. he is sooo unhapp#in any and all ways rhat matter and i genuinally dont think theres any universe where he would be satesfied#and while i do overall think of this as a very silly au there is alot to be said about a pebbles rhat dosent get the chance to be his own#ruin and deal with what happens agter he fails. my pebbles in this will forever live with the what ifs and nothing more. which i find very#compelling! i think it would take him alot longer to come to terms with anything seeing as he will always have this small part of his mind#that is calculating what could be if this didnt happen. even if we of course know what will happen and it will be much the same as everythi#what happened in this au. i also havd alot of thoughts about how iterators process emotions. i think its fun to toy with the idea thatthey#do feel them but have a certain distance from them and pre programmed ideas about how they apply to themself. i dunno!!!#anyhow anyhow thansk foe the ask anon! i really should have doen this in proper text but i love me some formating so oh well!#god hope you didnt want more about moon. she is just chilling if your wondering. im not sure if she can feel things like remorse.#reverse iterator au#anyhowsis hope you have a lovely day anon! i just used this as an excsuse to draw pebbles so you know thanks for that!#and of course we are listening to it was a monstering by everything everything today i think! :D#my art#i have more doodles if anyone is curious. i should probably add.

nothing (besides everyone ignoring Orym's deal) has made me angrier than watching Dorian keep up this facade. Dorian Storm has always been a type of mask he's worn. At first he called himself a liar because of it. The happy go lucky bard was a way of escaping for him. He was escaping Brontë so he created Dorian. He didn't believe he was Dorian. Until the Crown Keepers made Dorian real. And for a while, he really believed he was Dorian. That he has this new family and new life and he could be who he truly wanted to be.
And then his brother came back and made his problems Dorian's problems. Until he had to put Brontë back on. Because even if the Crown Keepers + Cyrus called him Dorian, he was Brontë. He had to be who his brother thought he was.
When Cyrus dies, the thread to Brontë had snapped. He was going to see Orym, back to the Bells Hells, back to Dorian Storm. But the foundation of Dorian had shattered. Dorian was created in order to run from his place in life, family, Cyrus. Now he was gone. The Crown Keepers had fallen apart. His friends fell through his fingers and he couldn't do anything to stop it. He was once ready to side with a betrayer god for these people and now they're in the wind.
So Dorian shows back up to Bells Hella and he's completely broken. The foundation of both of his lives has been thoroughly rocked. No brother. No Crown Keepers. The two things that forged Dorian Storm. He wears that mask so fucking well. Because he still wants to believe in it. He said it live on stage that he should "believe his own backstory". The one he made up. The one where he was a bard.
He wants to be Dorian so bad. He spends all his money on Orym, he spins the bottle so he can kiss his friends, he flirts, he blushes and giggles at compliments. Exactly how Dorian would, should.
But he wears the gold of the heir. He has a festering animosity inside his chest. He doesn't sleep. He's thinner than he was. He doesn't sleep. He sicks abominations after their creators. He talks to God's without an ounce of self preservation, daring them to strike him down. He does not acknowledge them as they taunt him.
The god of beauty and magic calls him beautiful and he does not smile.
#silver sending stones#cr spoilers#cr 3 e 107#dorian storm#got carried away in both the post and the tags again#this was supposed to be an add on from those tags yesterday#but i went off the fucking rails so hard im gonna have to make another post#and listen.#i know people are ✨ multifaceted ✨#but i think its interesting to peel apart the layers of dorian storm.#because i do think all of this is just dorian.#like the rest of us he would not be here if not for his family. his brother. the crown keepers. bells hella.#he is informed by the things that happened in the past. none of these identities could have happened on their own#but if we're looking at the arch as a whole#theres the bronte era. the dorian era. and then era where they got very muddy. and the era now.#i dont feel like he's suddenly a secret third person now#but you know how we all look at the past versions of ourselves and wonder how theyd feel about us now?#dorian just has names for them#and because there was a mixing of both his lives i think dorian is having a hard time reconciling into one#he tries very hard to be both himselves#the man contains multitudes for sure#and idk i just keep picturing him as a little bronte. and exu dorian is smiling and singing with him. he tells him all about their friends#and current dorian looking at them. afraid to approach. afraid theyll ask about their future. afraid to tell them.#but theyd probably figure it out. hes wearing gold after all.

Moulin Rouge AU
The story follows Moulin Rouge star performer, Daniel LaRusso, and an American writer, Johnny Lawrence, as they navigate through a tumultuous love affair. Little do they know about John Kreese's plan: set LaRusso up with a wealthy man, Terry Silver, to take revenge on Mr. Miyagi, Daniel's father.
#u guys i have had this since june in my drafts i think it's time to set it free HAHA#i don't even remember how i came up with this. i think i was screaming el tango de roxanne and then this happened lmao#okay i remembered actually. it always pissed me off how Christian was JEALOUS#like bro my dude your girl loves you. she didn't want to do this. and you're JEALOUS#(maybe i interpreted it wrong. i hope i did)#and the same goes for that au where johnny is in tkk3. like he could be jealous of silver at first when he also considered him a good guy#“no wonder daniel is looking at him with those puppy eyes. he's handsome tall and knows karate better than me:(”#but when he found out about silver's true face he would be just angry and try to open daniel's eyes until it's too late.#anyway-#the karate kid#daniel larusso#john kreese#who wasn't supposed to be here but i liked marty in Shootfighter too much not to include lol#terry silver#johnny lawrence#lawrusso#cobra husbands or/and silverusso if u squint

outer wilds 🤝 subnautica
canon young adults who just wanted to learn about the world around them and were genuinely curious and could have done so much had Circumstances not intervened (and also had the general philosophy of “the universe exists, and being part of it is beautiful” but that’s irrelevant)
yes this is about Solanum and also Bart
#why was i cursed to have them be my favorite characters#they could have lived… they could have made it…#unfortunately the kharaa bacterium/the interloper happened#I think about “the universe is and we are” way too much#also “what’s the point in surviving here if we have to kill everything that makes it so wonderful”#they would have been friends if they’d existed in the same universe and I will stand by that#subnautica#outer wilds#bart torgal#outer wilds solanum#they make me feel emotions D::

Out of all the Beast Yeast Episodes, I feel like White Lilly Cookie and Silent Salt's Episodes will be the most important.
Mainly because depending on how it goes, it could determine whether or not the Beast Cookies CAN be redeemed. (not really if they will be redeemed, but more if it's possible)
Being the last Beast to get a story, there's a good chance that we could get some more lore about the Beasts as a whole during Silent Salt's episodes. Since while we have a general idea, there's still a lot of things that I'm curious about.
For example, what did the beasts think of one another prior to corrupting? Were they friendly with one another? See each other as family? Or simply just co-workers? (there's implication that they're current relationship isn't great)
There's also the fact that the Beasts cookies have quite a few similarities to they're respective Ancients, so there's a good chance that Silent Salt might be aware of something the other Beasts aren't. (Except maybe Shadow Milk) Maybe they were searching for the answer to something, like how White Lilly Cookie searched for the reason why Cookies were made, only to be met with an answer that made them choose silence?
I also think that, if redeeming the Beasts is possible, that having White Lilly being the one to come to that conclusion would be the best choice. (yes PF offered SM friendship but that's beside the point)
She inherited Elder Faerie Cookie's power and position as Guardian, meaning it's supposed to be her job to make sure the Beasts can't hurt anyone ever again.
Right now, White Lilly's plan seems to be to find a way to reseal the Beasts in the tree. But technically she could also do her job by either finding a way to kill the Beasts, or by finding a way to redeem them.
So depending on how Episode 11 and 12 of Beast Yeast go, depending on how Silent Salt is as a character and how exactly the Beasts got corrupted, there's a chance that White Lilly could decide that instead of sealing them in the tree where they could have another chance to escape in the distant future, a more permanent solution would be to Purify them.
#this is all speculation#idk if the Beasts can be redeemed but I think it'd be cool if they could#the beasts we've seen all seem to have tragic reasons for why they corrupted#plus there's some interesting details here and there#such as Burning Spice's convo with Nutmeg Tiger Cookie in the Kingdom#where Burning Spice thinks back to the first Kingdom he may have built?#it's likely the one he built considering how weird he got when he thought about it#I wonder how devastated he got when his first kingdom fell to ruin?#and how many other kingdoms repeated the same cycle before he snapped?#Then there's Shadow Milk's... everything#I've already pointed out some details with the Tarot Cards and his story Sprites#I'm also assuming that Eternal Sugar also had a tragic reason to corrupt#she used to represent Happiness!#something big had to have happened to make her turn to Sloth#cookie run kingdom#cookie run#c#Silent Salt Cookie#White Lilly Cookie

I get so ill thinking about how Chuuya even ended up as a lab experiment as a kid, like what went wrong there. Abandonment is a persistent theme in Chuuya's backstory and it's always just been one bad thing after another. His dad was ex-military and an ex-doctor, and particularly described as not being a man to take lightly, so he potentially could've had high security clearance about the research being conducted at Research Facility A or had ties to the scientists involved in experimenting with abilities.
Mori was an ex-military doctor and we got a glimpse at how Yosano was treated as a kid and used for her ability, and it was obviously Nothing Good. I can't get out of my head that it can't be a coincidence Mori was an ex-military doctor and that he likely could've known about/been involved in Project Arahabaki. Mori's always conveniently come across extremely powerful ability users while they're kids — Yosano, Chuuya, Dazai, Q
Then the fact Teruko was drafted in the military as a kid for her ability too. I'M SENSING A PATTERN AND I DON'T LIKE IT
I am lying awake staring at the ceiling about this.
#bungou stray dogs#bungo stray dogs#bsd#bsd chuuya#bsd mori#bsd yosano#bsd teruko#thoughts#why am i sitting here thinking about it if not for the miserable implications#i think sometimes that he made the right choice not to approach his parents at the end of stormbringer tbh to protect his peace#he'll always be left wondering 'what if' but sometimes that's better than whatever the alternative could be#and it's not an easy decision to make yk he was 16 there's a lot of doubt and guilt in there about how -#parents are supposed to be the ones you look up to and want to be and the ones protecting you#and whatever circumstances happened chuuya just. had no one to protect him as a kid

god its so cool and Important how. despite all the bright colors and flash fabrics and jewelry, all of the socs are really just carbon copies of each other. theyve all got the same base, just recolored like a character selection page on a cheap game.
all the guys have their crisp, clean, bright shirt, their nice stiff pants, belt, and white shoes. add in some rings and maybe a chain or somethin, and thats about it. add on their matching letterman jackets, and theyre practically identical.
all of the girls have their pretty dresses and styled hair, but thats really it. their dresses all match the popular style at the time, their hair is perfectly placed and not really Theirs. theyre all styled to be popular, not individual.
and they're all so colorful! because they can afford new fabrics and bright colors and expensive dry cleaners to wash them, though they're careful not to get dirty. theyre so bright and colorful but so painfully similar
contrast that with the greasers, who are all relatively in the same color palette. theyre in basic t-shirts, and denims, and leathers. work clothes. theres no split based on gender, ace wears pants with the guys. they are all down in the dirt and grimey, they all have to move and work in these clothes.
but theres so much personality in their outfits! even just the little things, like jewelry or headbands, tells so much about each person. ace's headband is a scrap from the shirt on her back, showing her resourcefulness. darry's flannel and work pants showing his grit and hard work. the patches decorating steve's jacket, showing his passions and the things he fights for. Johnny's vest showing his heritage, and his too-big clothes showing how hes got hand-me-downs. two-bit's tattoos, shown proudly and boldly on his bare arm for the whole world to see.
the greasers might all look 'the same' at first glance because theyre all in grays and dirty whites and denims. but god there is so much more heart and character and diversity in their outfits and therefore in their lives simply because theyre not worrying about sticking in a top spot of society. theyre not worrying about individuality being a weakness to tear them down. theyve got much bigger things to think about. theyre so free in that sense. free to be themselves, free to be with each other and support each other. because thats all they got; their hearts and each other.
the socs dont have that connection. they dont have that chance to be vulnerable and share a part of themselves so constantly. they may live where the grass is greener but are they really so much better off, if they can never truly show themselves?
#this literally was supposed to be a costume analysis but it did turn into more of a character and society one#i just think its so cool how we all get so excited about. what will the new soc looks be like#when really theyre all so similar. theyre all almost identical#save for a few sweaters. theyre all button ups or dresses#and dont get me wrong i LOVEEEE wondering about the next new costume. i love that shit with all my heart#its just so interesting how much of a facade it kinda is#yea omg theyre all so different but theyre not really. its just the color or fabric. theres no individuality#and thats so important for the socs#they all must fit in and be the conglomerate perfect white americans#whereas the greasers all can truly be themselves because#why bother trying to fit in if its literally impossible for most of them#the only ones who could try would be the curtis brothers. and only one of them made any attempts at that#also. there could definitely be something to say about how paul is the only main soc guy not in a normal shirt#hes got the sweater#like hes the only soc guy thats A Little Different#and hes the only one who interacted positively (at one point) with a greaser#(bar cherry bc that happens in the current plot. please understand me here LMAO)#idk now im yapping#but godddd i love good costume and character design#this shit is so important in a story like this#a story about class and race and poverty and 'real' people#the outsiders musical#the outsiders broadway#costume design#ily sarafina bush and ur team
