So be the deities of the Harpy and the Dragon.
Our Lady Verildis The Dragon God, may she dance on the sky, is a Goddess of many faces. She represents the sun, fortune, luck, wisdom and intuition, but she also represents trickery, jokes and mischief, rage and rebellion, perseverance and hard roads to travel.
Most often of all, she is a dragon greater than the Earth itself, great enough to wrap herself around The Sun, with scales like pure burning sunset and coy, upturned eyes. But she has many faces, all characterized by her skyline coloring and gleaming yellow eyes. She loves gold and rubies and shiny things to add to her hoard stowed in The Sun.
Our Lady Immilla The Harpy God, may she dance on the sky, is a Goddess of many names. She represents the moon, the sea, art, music, love, life, the seasons and the weather, but also death, melancholy, revenge and mystery.
She is a great harpy whom nests in the craters of the Moon, with iridescent green feathers and long black hair, black as night, and a singing voice so utterly profound it shook tears from mountain tops and created waterfalls. Her favorite name is Immilla, the first ever Gifted to her by her lover, Verildis, but she has many more names, such as Atilia, Tabitha, Amabilis, Amphelice, Invidia, and Wilhelmina. She loves poems and birds and string music, idle things to spend your hours on.

in the reblog tags of my paradox reshie and zekrom post, @spicy-sweet-herba-mystica got me thinkin about paradox kyurem. well. here we go! ghost/dragon type. it's just straight up paradox. both future and past because. all that. and all that being, with a past paradox zekrom and a future paradox reshiram, it'd be weird if i chose either of them for kyurem. so. both it is! ghost type, plus it being Both, relating to the whole kyurem Lore stuff.
anyway whipped this up pretty quick TEE BEE ECH so the design, if i ever come back to it, is likely to change

Okay but consider by the time the odysseus is baby girling himself during suffering, it's been very well established that he is the distraction/talk their way out of trouble friend. So eurylochus who has probably been putting up with this nonsense since they were children was going no no this is 100% normal just ignore it. While the crew (who was just random subjects yes?) Was going what the fuck what the fuck

being a huge fan of tlou but also like. thinking that certain stories are built for certain mediums. like the entire theme of tlou2 is grounded and fresh because it’s a railroad/story video game that still affords you mechanical choices in how you navigate the world. i just don’t have a lot of confidence that presenting that story in a tv show with the minimal adjustments that they did in s1 will be fulfilling or compelling in any comparable way. because with tlou1 some of the like. beauty of that story was simply that it was such an emotive story contained in the medium of video games. and some of that was retained just by hitting similar or expanded emotional beats in the show, like the episodes that expanded on the life of the characters and the realities of that world. but truly so much of tlou2 emotional depth and ‘why does this story matter’ rests in the fact that’s it’s your hands on the controller, continually choosing to go forward in the story and have hope that it will work out in your-as-ellie-or-abby-or-somehow-booth’s favour. and you simply cannot get that in a non-interactive medium like television. like i do think tlou2 is a good story but it’s a good story because of the investment required by the player to keep pressing buttons and keep returning and to feel the adrenaline like responses of high intensity moments and be jarringly shifted into backstories that only increase the frustration. in general i’ve been thinking a lot about cross-medium adaptation and on the one hand i am glad that season 1 makes the story of the last of us more accessible to people who wouldn’t pick up a video game but it’s also like. maybe instead we can destigmatize video games as this inaccessible and dangerous medium a bit more instead of just . implicitly agreeing . like no maybe your mom won’t pick up a video game controller and play the last of us . but maybe you can play the game in the living room. sometimes the mediums that stories are told in aren’t just important but are actually foundational parts of how the information of a story is conveyed and that’s not only okay but is fucking fantastic. we should be happy actually that there are so many ways to collect a bunch of themes and ideas and put them together and hold them out to someone else and say “won’t you consider this with me. won’t you feel these emotions and care about these characters with me.”
#i’ve been thinking about this both for academic and personal reasons#where like. my thesis literally includes discussion of tlou2 and it’s profundity because of the players position as in control but without#real decision making power in the story#and it’s like. you’re the person animating these two ptsd ridden women who subject themselves to be puppets to their#own grief . and there’s something particularly resonant about the fact that you can’t change the Story. you can only play it.#and like . i’ve talked with my mom a lot about the last of us#since i played it the first time and it really just rocked my shit. and i remember walking out my bedroom after i’d finished tlou2#feeling that odd mixture of empty and completely fulfilled by a good story with tears in my eyes#and a few years later when i visited home and had happened to bring my ps4 along with me and i was having a rough time#my mom asked if i’d want to show her tlou. because she knew i loved it and because i’ve told her it has tropes she’d enjoy#but the only games she’ll ever play are point and click because she’s stubborn and some physicality stuff#but like i remember sitting on the couch just. playing this game and it wasn’t the exact same as her playing it herself . but sometimes her#commentary was like it was.#i just. idk man. tlou lover wants to be hyped but seeing the exact same visuals from the game just in tv show format is like#. what’s the point. why are you distilling the themes by removing the active (non)agency of the player and#replacing it with the passive role of ‘watcher’ in a story so emphatically about having an active role in the action#anyway#tagging this#tlou#for blog organization but this isn’t discourse or whatever just me thinkin my thoughts on my blog

mike is the type of guy to give someone a thumbs down for their bad driving
scott is the type of guy to get flipped off a lot while driving and just laugh and do it back, but he’d point a gun at someone who gave him a thumbs down for his bad driving

you should use jjk tags if you want that maki fic to get more attention. like jjk x reader or jjk smut etc. not just maki x reader. your fic deserves to be out there more since it is sponsored for a good cause so use the popular tags
hiii ml!!!
i typically only rlly use the character tags bc i feel like people after specifically maki works will search for maki as opposed to the fandom as a whole tag so i get nervous (? idk if that's the right word for it) using the fandom tags bc i don't really think it would necessarily change the audience its reaching
secondly, if i change the tags now it won't rlly affect the attention it receives bc its already been 6ish days since i posted it and whenever ive edited tags previously for organisation etc it hasn't done anything for traction/interaction on the fic
thirdly, wlw content i've noticed for me never does the best anyway which isn't an issue at all bc i enjoy writing it nonetheless i've just noticed there isn't quite as big of an audience for it! <3

Semi negative below the cut - 
Here's the thing like...fundamentally, what the majority of the US Tour 6 indicating that they believe "the wrong cat died" really shows to me is that the understanding of the show has been somewhat lost over the years.
This is no disrespect towards any of them, and I believe that joking about this subject is absolutely within an area of general fun and lightheartedness (we do it literally all the time), but at the end of the day it misses the point.
#there’s a difference between joking/poking fun about things not happening and then...legitimately believing them.#extemporize back chat#like...here's the thing - it's about the concept of being deserving of forgiveness#not rewarded or not punished#and sure i will absolutely joke that gus deserves it *at least once let the poor man sleep already*#but like fundamentally and narratively that's not the point#dying and being reborn in Cats is not literal...it's allegorical#it's a metaphor#and it seems like the younger generations are really pushing that 'we have outgrown allegory' angle#because they don't understand it#and here's the thing again like i don't even believe grizabella 'dying' is necessarily the right choice#in purely objectional fact because it makes it seem like they would rather be rid of her than deal with the enormous work forgiveness takes#but we're not *dealing* in purely objective and interpretive fact - we're dealing with by saying grizabella was the wrong cat to die#you are inadvertently saying that she did not deserve to be forgiven#which like *fair* you are absolutely within your right to read the show that way but like...just say that#that's where the subjective reading comes in#and no i don't think they all legit believe this - they're doing a bit or doing it in character or just answering for the sake of answering#but still#it's a purposeful push of ignorance from the host#idk i was thinking the wrong cat died needed to die on the vine back in 2019 and i haven't changed my mind since#EDIT: and another thing...Gus...did nothing wrong that we know of - not counting the revival he isn't even *involved* in the shunning#of grizabella - even *asparagus* isn't involved in that much because the performer has dipped off stage#he literally is just brought in has no idea where he is and leaves - he doesn't *need* to be forgiven to achieve acceptance in his society#there is nothing to forgive him *for*

suddenly realizing that one of ur friends is quite self centered is WILD. i know some people talk about themselves as a way to relate to something you said but to do it every single time someone tells you something....

Don’t laugh… I’m still fleshing out my Little Red Riding Hood meets Big Bad Yautja story… Homegirl doesn’t even realize there’s a camouflaged 7’7” tall yautja marking her to eat later while she hunts hare for dinner…

its kind of funny sometimes thinking abt kink scenes and then how online is and how i could prob be considered a hypocrite for being kink positive but not wanting proshippers anywhere near me. and i think the biggest difference is context and consent
