hot take maaaybe but imo the core tragedy of satoru is that he’s not a god, he’s literally just a normal guy who got godhood pushed onto him by other people . a god would be able to handle eternal solitude no problem but satoru isn’t one so he suffers for it
#which is an interesting contrast to geto who /wants/ non-sorcerers to view him as a god-like figure#i could talk for hours abt their parallels they really are sooo similar and so different all at once#but yeah … satoru is Just Some Guy to me <3#i don’t even think he’s really that freaky or feral#he just enjoys the thrill of battle but that’s the standard of living in the society he was born into#you know ?#like . yeah#sorry i woke up thinking abt him today#it’s such a delicate balance bc i doo think he’s uncanny in many ways but all of that is related to his powers#that are basically just family heirlooms he was born wearing#at his core satoru is just a normal man and i think that’s absolutely soulcrushing#anyway that’s all </3 i miss my husband#ari noises ✩#meta ✩

The problem with a lot of traffic life interpretations in my opinion is they don't understand character foils or don't employ them in their writing. Grian-Martyn and Scar-Ren are genuinely pretty good character foils for a series that is not really scripted or planned out like a book is. I could go on and on about how they parallel each other and the similarities between them. Even the smaller details between the four usually match up
leaving the rant in the tags so I don't have a huge block of text again ueueue
#jamies bad posts#like a simple example grian is an “unwilling” (though we all know thats bs) bodyguard/protector of scar#while martyn is a willing protector of ren#but i was just watching rendogs first episode and he says that his plan is to first go around attempting to trade with everyone#and it just. it STRIKES me how similar scar and ren are#they both have tempers when called for they both go around playing a friend to all and trying to trade#fuck it in the first few minutes of rens episode hes chasing rabbits around the desert#like ren and scar are two sides of the same coin in the context of third life#thats what makes the dogwarts/monopoly mountain arc so INTERESTING#because they both have goals good and bad and when you watch the others povs each side looks so... intimidating. so different#its only when you get really up close you realize theyre the same type of person#like martyn and grian idk just watching them interact is fun. its really fun#the way martyn gave grian a diamond sword in third life to protect him versus grian doing that w etho secret life#i can mostly think of just the little details but like. come ON#GO WATCH THEIR VIDEOS. ITS SO UNCANNY.#ren and scar genuinely drive me insaneee it drives me insaneee#ok like rendog makes a business out of enchanting and do you know what scar goes insane every season afterwards trying to get#the FUCKING enchanting table#if u like watcher lore u also get the yummy fact that grian and martyn were BOTH on evo#like....#the watcher/listener parallels. idk#third life#3rd life#trafficblr#traffic smp#life series#grian#gtws#goodtimeswithscar#gtwscar

It’s so funny bc I thought this scene in invincible was a moon knight parody bc the guy looks just like Oscar Isaac but it turns out the invincible episode was released an entire year before moon knight and it’s just a total coincidence
#anybody else notice this lol?#such a funny parallel bc it’s completely unintentional#it’s so uncanny that this guy who looks just like Oscar Isaac is reviving an Egyptian Spirit from a desert tomb#esp bc half of the characters are parodies and there’s always joke references#maybe invincible can just predict the future#moon knight#marc spector#Steven grant#Oscar Issac#invincible

For 💖🎀, what about Marx? Little cute creature concealing incredible magic and uncanny features! I think he could be so mean to her ❤️
oh... anon you are very big brained for this one. he could unfortunately be so so mean to her.... and he has such pretty pretty wings! she would be enraptured instantly.
bonus eye-anim version (cw eyes/flashing gif):
#a moth to a flame...#this is maybe not especially... shippy sorry. he's just... Looming Menacingly.#the way he *always* does in my artwork.... boring.#unfortunately my marx is an intelligent eldritch meanie. *feels* a bit more than my galacta knight but no less grey in the morals.#for what it's worth i DID come up with a short comic for this prompt as well. but it's Not Nice. would y'all still want me to do it?#nothing overt or explicit. but like... manipulation i suppose. mean lies. it's not even About Her really. just a pawn.#and yes his lashes ARE getting bigger every single time i draw him. like he deserves. wings too#i gotta learn to simplify these damn hexagons#actually a very big fan of the implied parallel. cute little uncanny creature. i could do a lot with that actually. there's a lot here.#also if i had to wake up in a cold sweat about this so do the rest of you but: Starx.#Starxstrarx if you're feeling especially mischievous. try and say it aloud. it's what he'd want. you're welcome.#cw flashing#<- only under the cut. but just in case.#marx (kirby)#starstruck dee#my art#🎀💖

lucy chen 🤝 stella kidd, certified goat whisperers.
#carly lb chicago fire#chicago fire#11x03#stella kidd#the rookie#lucy chen#she was so desperate to beat herrmann in this silly little contest that she got down and started “bahh!”ing at them i can't 😂😂#the number of parallels between stellaride/chenford and tim/kelly and stella/lucy is so uncanny omgggg#i always think about the jerald the goat story and how we were robbed of actually seeing that scene#cause ik for a fact that tim was full on belly laughing like eric does in those bts tiktok shenanigan videos#which i also bet he hadn't done in yearrrsssss#like i'm sure plenty of people have made him laugh over the years#but no one's ever been able to make him lose his breath from laughing so hard#at least not until that particular call 🥹💕

zavijava info PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!!! PLEASEEEEE ZAVIJAVA COME HOME ... PLEASE .... umm um um ill tell you about umm . tma au im making for nastya if u tell me about her .PLEASE!!!!!!!
so she is definitely a star of some kind. i mean she is an angel but in that story in particular The Stars are kind of angels. like they’re otherworldly beings and they jus kinda hang out. cosmically. it’s a different dimension separated from the human one but like, obviously stars still exist for humans, they just don’t do anything crazy because the rules of the world dictate that their realities shouldn’t interact. angels can observe the other world from far up above yet they still exist on a different level. But tbh zavijava had never enjoyed the otherworldly ethereal whatever lifestyle—she just didn’t feel like she fit in there. she is a #1 humans fan though so she knows that’s where she’d fit in. so she does just that. she fits in perfectly :) and normally :) yay :)
#see the thing with zavijava is that there isn’t much info to share on her just on account of her being what she is#she is like a Concept trying to humanize and shove herself into a box#it’s like asking a rock what it likes. a rock can’t like anything it just sort of exists#that’s zavi babey#that’s not to say she doesn’t desperately try to like anything and everything . and that’s precisely what she ends up doing#she loves everything ! but she doesn’t really understand it or have a genuine connection to anything just by virtue of not being part of the#world. it’s like having a 6d being try to exist in a 3d space. very limiting. very incomprehensible for the 6d being#so her enjoyment of things (debatable if she’s even Capable of feeling Anytning) is artificial in a way#she is Uncanny Valley she reflects humans she does not really have an inner world or proper opinions of her own#so like she Does really love humans and everything about their world. but no specifics or a detailed understanding of them & it#as much as she likes humans she does not grasp their concepts like at all. Or only in a rudimentary manner#haze could explain to her why some people walk holding hands and she would be like Wow i guess that means we are married :) because we are#always together :) we can even hold hands too :) (she tries to hold his hand and he immediately starts seeing the hat man)#so yea. tldr. she’s more of a concept made character so there’s not a lot of Character Info on her#she’s more of a force#cramswering#idk if any of that is a coherent fucking explanation LOL she’s just kinda dream-like in that sense. idk#like yknow the way humans can’t truly comprehend eldritch beings or non euclidian shapes or whatever#the eldritch being in turn is not fated to understand da humans ….#& anyways for now the rest of the stars are aware that zavijava is Goofing but it’s not urgent enough to send someone after her. yetttt#tho hell dude 2 angels in the world would probably make it implode instantly so maybe that’s why they’re hesitant to do anything#also yea idk if this needs to be said but those angels arent tied to religion or humans really. they’re not guardian angels they’re just#Things that exist on a different Plane Of Existence. parallel to the human world#they watch over it but not in a guardian responsibility way#just sort of in a It’s Something To Look At way#ok yeah it’s 1:30am too by the way so i think that’s enough incomprehensible eldritch rambling#tell me about ur au boy

being a leftist watching the dnc feels like being tav talking to the patriars and lords after gortash's coronation as archduke
#iykyk#bg3#dnc#for the record this is my first playthrough#and every time i talk to the next npc and they say something that sounds just like neolibs#i feel the urge to rip my hair out and scream#these parallels are uncanny and to be playing this the day after the dnc is WILD

@starflungwaddledee because you asked-
oh definitely (at first). I'd imagine starstruck would probably figure out pretty quickly that celesta knight knows there's something Wrong with her and is terrified of it. (fear is the main motivator for hatred, after all!)
it's not just that which makes celesta want to stay as far away from her as possible, though. starstruck is a waddle dee still, and therefore "works" for king dedede, who has strong connections to meta knight… who wants celesta knight dead in this au. he got so close to killing her, only for her to barely escape with her life and go into hiding. (I'll see if I can find the post where I went into more detail about this later, but it's very old and buried,,,)
if celesta and starstruck were to become friends, part of it would include bonding over the shared experience of being mimics (yes, that's right). meta knight would, without a doubt, lose his damn mind if he learned of their friendship.
#misc#celesta knight#no idea if starstruck was created for a sinister purpose but tbh meta knight probably has more of a reason to hate celesta so much#she certainly doesn't mean any harm but she is a living breathing mass extinction event. her mere existence is a natural disaster#he just doesn't realize this. he's only creeped out by her because all astrals like him perceive pseudopuffs as incredibly uncanny#(and speaking of THAT... nobody on popstar knows pseudopuffs exist. she's a very weird and very not normal astral to everyone there.)#they have so many parallels your honour... opposites yet so similar... I could spend an entire day just comparing and contrasting them

Okay so Tumblr is officially dead because in a Single Episode of Fionna and Cake we got (1) an official Sexyman design of a beloved childhood character who (2) is tall and lanky, (3) wears a suit, (4) is voiced by Polygon Parasocial Relationship Star Brian Fucking David Gilbert who (5) sings a banger of a song and (6) MAKES AN HONEST-TO-GOD SELF-CEST JOKE and I have seen, like, one piece of fanart of him
#fionna and cake#like I’m 95% sure winter king is a onceler parody because the parallels are uncanny#and yet#here we are

I get so stupid about fanon sometimes like the black haired blue eyed kids jokes grates on my nerves for a lot of reasons (racism) but also genuinely forget that not everyone of them has brown eyes. Like the only black haired blue eyed person in that manor is Bruce to me and even then I’m a grayish blue fan
#yes even tim#sorry mutuals look away#and steph too#she’s also black when it suits me but this ain’t about that#and jason. sometimes he gets blue eyes when I want the jason Bruce parallels in comparison to everyone else to hit#but rare as hell#dick. genuinely baffled whenever he’s described with blue eyes#like also pale skin and short hair#like dick is so idealized in my mind seeing a canon drawing of him feels uncanny valley#like sorry genuinely forget it’s not whitewashing fr 💀#same with Damian except it IS whitewashing girls that get it get it#speaking of Damian#forever brown eyes originally Lazarus pit made em green truther#i don’t hold this with cass and Jason tho bc it’s stupid#but also my mutual brought up it being an Al ghul thing as opposed to a pit thing#like it IS a pit thing but the Al Ghuls are so intertwined it impacts them differently#thus the eyes#sorry never gonna be a green eyed Jason fan#for any reason#anyways#cass has brown eyes but they’re DARK eyes#you know those annoying ass ppl that’ll be like ‘technically eyes can’t be black’ or whatever#she makes them question#Duke obviously has the biggest sparkliest brown eyes ever#no fr tho more like a deeeeep brown but after metagene got activated they’re like. weird#like Liquid gold moving weird#beautiful contrast when he’s next to cass#beautiful to me terrifying to anyone else#but one of the first things he does with his powers is Learn how to fuck w/ ppl with his eyes. civilian form.#bruce is screaming and crying bc Duke is gonna get caught. but has Bruce considered that Duke is having fun? I bet he hasn’t. sad.

I. I feel like I found my alt account's counterpart in the Arcane fandom.
#Same fixation on one character which they repeatedly put in a blender#same general writing quality and the styles are similar#same very specific type of whump#I feel like I'm looking at a parallel universe version of me#(being dramatic)#but the resemblance is uncanny#rue rants

I’m quite new to the topic so I have to say my knowledge of it is very limited right now, but the way that Weimar cabaret in it’s blatant sexuality and queerness, and the way that its’ becoming more integrated into “regular” society was a factor in the rise in reactionary views in the late 20s and early 30s kind of feels disturbingly similar to what’s happening now with drag shows?
Like I know it’s commonly known that Germany and Berlin in particular had a large and more openly queer community than in most places at the time, but I was just looking into cabaret specifically because I find it interesting and it was pretty eerie to hear that in the late 20’s before everything started going to shit, it had actually began to be a thing for cishet people to go to queer cabaret and nightclubs because some of the venues were so well known. Like to the point that they were mentioned in “things you should do in Berlin” type of newspaper articles and tourists would come to see them.
Idk about everyone else but that sounds so much like how going to drag shows became a semi-popular and cool thing for some cishet people for awhile, only then for the reactionary conservative views to rear their ugly heads and start not only trying to tear down drag shows and paint them as immoral, but trying to do that to actual trans people, drag performers, etc. as well.
#and ofc the way that so many of the writers for cabaret were jewish influenced the reactionary shit a ton as well#ngl this is kind of horrifying and truly frightening to think about because of how there was a similar boom in acceptance and then a rapid—#decline and now attempts to take away rights and worse#like um I knew shit was bad already ofc and I already knew about the parallels but thats straight up uncanny to me#it’s physically painful to think about how beautiful it must have been there and how good it could have been if they hadn’t destroyed &#outlawed it all obviously but it’s also like seriously sickening to realize that it’s so similar to whats going on rn#and the way that the performances increased significantlyin how political they were as a response to the growing nazi shit in the early 30s-#feels eerily familiar as well. like things have gotten increasingly political since 2016 for obvious reasons and bc its getting more dire—#by the year#history repeats itself ig#sorry this is such a bleak post lmao but yeah like wow idk#/holocaust mention#/homophobia#/transphobia#transphobia#drag shows#queer history#cabaret theatre#german queer history#history#trans rights#theatre history#1920s#also I might be wrong but I thought the whole ‘protect the children’ thing was a n*zi propaganda tactic too? tho it might have been about—#jewish people only not queer people I don’t remember well enough to say for sure#people who know more than me about this please feel free to correct me or add additional input !!#willing to add more tws if requested
