god Arcane S2 is so good. I love not knowing any of the source material, because I'm just consuming the story as it is - with absolutely exquisite visuals and beautifully orchestrated emotional arcs. The ending had me legit crying and loved every moment of it.

A tangent from the tags of my previous Pharma post (and I just thought about this so bear w/ me if it's hastily reasoned) is that the Autobots being generally sanctimonious is actually sort of a reason why I find a lot of IDW Optimus interpretations to miss the mark, specifically the accusations of calling him stuff like self-righteous, caring more about principles than people, etc. And I know that sounds really ironic, but out of every Autobot (and almost every character period), Optimus is one of the few people who has a very forgiving/humanistic perspective on life or at least has a political approach of "if we don't stop fucking fighting we're going to be at war forever and eventually just kill ourselves."

He very explicitly wanted a diplomatic end to the war and not a military victory/conquest. He extended multiple offers to Megatron personally to work together and end the war (Autocracy trilogy, which was pre/early war, and Chaos Theory, which was late/end war, so from this we can assume Optimus' stance was consistent the whole time). When ppl hated him so bad they rioted he removed himself from the planet rather than argue or fight to justify why his actions were the best he could do. Sandstorm starts murdering Decepticons and Optimus solves the murders and then throws Sandstorm in prison bc sparing one of his Autobots the consequences of his actions is less important to Optimus than keeping the peace and making sure anyone who threatens to ignite wartime hostilities is punished for it. There are multiple characters throughout the series that other people give up on as too far gone or too cowardly/evil/damaged to be worth helping where Optimus alone is the person who says "I think they can get better/they did bad things but they're still people" such as the Dynobots, Blurr, Prowl (despite how OP's patience with him hung by a thread by the end of it), Shockwave, and, yknow, fucking Megatron of all people.

And on top of that Optimus' internal thoughts most of the time revolve around feelings of guilt, responsibility, anger, hopelessness/barely hanging on to his ideals, and so on. Bro regularly has thoughts about how the entire Autobot-Decepticon war was his fault and is depressed to the point the thought of dying/martyring himself makes him feel relieved. So like. Idk guys I don't think those are the personality traits/actions of a self-righteous person who thinks he's correct about everything and everyone who opposes him or fails his moral standards is just evil or whatever.

Lyria being referred to as a “member of the horn gang” and then subsequently an “agent” of the sovereign when she 100% was never in a gang nor sent on a mission by Virginia will send me every time.

The way people refer to her like she’s so menacing and official.. then you meet her and she’s just like “listen idk how I got here I’m just as confused as you are.”

Oh, wow! This is so gorgeous! I need it on a t-shirt, framed for my wall, on greeting cards (although I'm not exactly sure when you'd send that image to someone...), on a tote, on a notebook - just everything!

Can we all collectively send the artist a big, hearty Wahoo?

Wahoo!!

tgcf as a long rambling bedtime story shang qinghua tells xuejiao (because story time is one of the few times his little half-demon whelp will cuddle with him) intended to teach a spoiled ass ice prince the value of humility and goodness and dedication to the people. it backfires horrifically because XJ thinks that xie lian is extremely cringe and in true airplane fashion the epic bloodthirsty demon antagonist ends up being a supreme simp househusband. how does this keep happening to SQH

.

just saw some of the worst, shallowest, most boring opinions on seon-ho that seem to take everything he says and does at face-value and which i dearly wish i could unread or just erase from my mind with some brain bleach. it's fine to dislike him, people have the right and freedom to dislike him, but don't claim to love him when you insult him in every second sentence. in fact, just admit that you hate him and think he is unloveable and underserving of anyone's love and that he should stay alone forever and ever and die alone too. also, while stating your (wrong) opinions about the character is one thing (which you are allowed to do, no matter how wrong you are), imo it's clearly crossing the line when you start making offensive assumptions about the fans of that character/that rarepair with that character in it or making fun of the fans/shippers. that's when you start leaning into shipping wars and bullying, which is very much NOT okay. couching it in humor changes nothing about that fact.

stumbling on these mocking, disrespectful, downright offensive opinions was seriously upsetting and honestly speaking i feel very hurt right now. please someone say something nice about nam seon-ho so i can feel less angry and sad and horrible about myself as a seon-ho fan again.
