Você acha que no primeiro filme o casamento seria consumado?

(Answered this one also in English below the "keep reading" cut, because it's a good one and I wanted to share with everyone ✨ Question: "Do you think the marriage was complete in the first film?")

Hola! No sé si traduje bien la pregunta 🙈 Pero si te refieres a que si completaron la boda en la primera peli, yo creo que no tuvieron tiempo para eso. El pobre Betel se lo llevó el gusano de arena antes de que pudieran pronunciarlos marido y mujer tan siquiera. Pero yo sí he llegado a pensar que para Betelgeuse el matrimonio se completó al menos en un sentido personal, aunque no se completara la ceremonia de manera oficial.

Él sí dijo que quería "volverse a casar" con Lydia, o sea, que en un sentido sí consideraba que estaban casados durante todo este tiempo y la segunda boda sería más bien una formalidad para completar la ceremonia. En la segunda podemos tener más imaginación, porque Beej continuará con Lydia y lo vimos en su cama, así que la relación entre ambos continuará desarrollándose. Yo pienso que en la segunda tal vez sí llegaron a completar su boda, pero al violentar el código 699, pues se canceló. Pero Betelgeuse le hace caso a eso? Nope! Sí hace caso y se va cuando Lydia dice su nombre, pero luego ya lo vemos metidito y calentito en su cama 😆 compartiendo su cama como su marido.

Estoy loca de ver cómo verá su relación Betelgeuse en la tercera película. Tal vez ignora por completo que violentó el código y se considera el esposo de Lydia y el nuevo padre de su hija. Le faltaría a Lydia firmar algún documento o algo para hacerlo oficial y liberar a Betelgeuse, si me preguntan a mí. Yo creo que en la tercera ya estarán casados, pero sólo necesitarán hacerlo oficial en papel, de modo que no pueda ser cancelado. Lydia o Betelgeuse quizá tengan que conseguir un loophole ahí, porque si no mal recuerdo, la violación del código 699 anula matrimonios futuros entre vivo y muerto, tengo que revisar eso, pero estoy segura de que ellos hallarán una forma. Quizá casándose por medios del mundo de los vivos, sin tener que ver con las reglas del mundo de los muertos completamente. Ya veremos. 😉

Inglés abajo porque la mayoría aquí hablan inglés y quiero compartir con todos este porque me encantó hablarlo 💜

Hi! I don't know if I translated the question well 🙈 But if you mean if they did complete the wedding in the first film, I think they didn't have time for that. Our poor Betel was "eaten" by the sandworm before they were formally pronounced husband and wife. But you know, I've accepted the headcanon that Betelgeuse considers their marriage to have been completed, at least in a personal sense, even if the ceremony was not officially completed.

He did say that he wanted to "remarry" Lydia, the love of his life. That means, in a sense, he did consider himself and Lydia to be married all these years, and the second wedding would be more of a formality to complete the ceremony so he could be free. But in love? I think he's seen himself as her husband all along, to some extent at least.

In the second we can have more freedom to imagine where things will go, because Beej will continue to be with Lydia, and we saw him in her bed, so the relationship between the two will continue to evolve. I think that in the second movie, maybe they did complete their wedding, but by violating code 699, it was canceled. But does Betelgeuse care about that? Nope! He does listen and leaves, back into the Netherworld when Lydia says his name, but then we see him tucked in and warm in her bed 😆 sharing her bed space as her husband.

I'm crazy to see how Betelgeuse will see their relationship in the third film. Maybe he won't give a shit about the code violation and he'll consider himself to be Lydia's husband and the new dad to her daughter. Lydia would only need to sign some document or something to make it official and free Betelgeuse, if you ask me. I think in the third film they will be married, but they need to like finally, make it official in paper, in a way that's not voided. Like, Lydia or Betelgeuse will have to find a loophole there, because I think the code violation will null future marriages as well. I'd have to re-read that, but I'm sure they'll find a way. Maybe by marrying by the rules of the world of the living, without having to involve the rules of the world of the dead completely. We'll see. 😉

:) hello! :D hope you have a nice day and absolutely do not think of the possibility of one of the last story cards being of silver! and that his groovy will very probably be crying!!! THERE'S SO MANY CRYING PEOPLE IN STORY CARDS LATELY!!! SPECIALLY LIGHT USERS!! I AM!!! SCARED!!!! bc so far we got Lilia and Sebek in the beginning book 7.... so at the end.... so we're missing story Silver... and Malleus is the one with less cards, so they might add one for him... but... the tears... ego.... THE TEARS!!!! EGOOOO!! (LOVE YOUR ART BTW EVERYTIME I GET A NOTIF FROM YOUR BLOG I RUN HERE TO SEE!)

(thank you! 💚💜💚)

YES I am ALSO like...90-95% convinced that we're going to be getting a story card for Silver once we wrap around back to diasomnia. 👀 especially because the way things are going, Silver will be the only character whose dream we haven't seen -- yet???? -- and that just. y'know. makes me wonder!

although I do think it would be VERY funny if he got a story card and the groovy was just "regular Silver except with one beautiful single crystal tear". this is actually a lot coming from him.

(he used up all his emotion yelling at a baby that one time, there's none left for a proper groovy-level cry.)

Splinter mutation speculation! This one is actually pretty old, I drew it before I did all that research on turtles :)

Fun facts about rats: When they are happy, they do a thing called bruxing and boggling, wherein they will grind their teeth together sometimes to the point where the muscles of their jaw make their eyes wiggle in their sockets. They also don’t have paw pads the way dogs or cats do, but instead have little bumps of thicker skin. Look up happy pet rats, they’re absolutely adorable!

These are mostly just my head canons for Splinter as an old jokester with a messed up past trying to do better for the future. We don’t actually see much of him in the show despite dialogue refrencing his daily lessons and his great ‘embarrassing dad’ comedy, so I wanted to speculate of how he might be when the cameras not rolling, per se. It’s tough being the single father of four teenagers without the help of a community, but the brothers are pretty well adjusted (relatively speaking) and are loving towards each other and open to others.

In terms of his anatomy though, while rats may look chubby, it’s in part because of their curved spine and rodent posture. They can get pretty slim when they stretch out. It may be because of these changes to his skeleton that Splinter seemingly shank so much from his human form, while still having the strength to beat people up despite his age. He also made a vow to stop fighting in the Battle Nexus leading to his eventual mutation, which he does break when his kids are on the line, but could be a reason as to why he avoided many of their squabbles in the show? Who knows!

There’s a lot to work with from little characterizations, and it’s fun to see all the different interpretations of his character!

The Kadez is a medium-sized river chelicerate, living in particularly pure, well-oxygenated streams. It tolerates very cold temperatures and as such is often found in mountain streams. They turn over pebbles with their legs in search of small invertebrates, roe, and other small prey to eat. It is quite an active creature, and in areas where they are abundant, they'll often come up onto land for other food sources. That said, they are quite skittish, and surprisingly fast -especially underwater-, so it isn't always easy to approach them.

Something I adore about this saga is how the songs all end with such powerful and forceful singing. It almost feels like Odysseus is trying to drown out the screams he hears by being louder with his own pain and convictions

hymnheart birds, better known as "hymns", or "travel mount" birds, are a genus of bird derivative from todays common flocking birds of sky (doves), and the less common nightbirds.

during the days of prosperity, these birds were bred to be large and capable of carrying many passengers, as skypeople flight was not a common form of travel. similarly, it wasnt uncommon to find a smaller version of these birds (usually bred by hand, and not by known breeders), meant for single person travel, that was also often used in racing. these lesser travel mounts are known to have sparked the use of mantas for racing and speedy travel, as mantas were faster and smaller, and functionally better for the same uses.

in modern day, these birds are considered to be extinct. after great technological advantages like flying boats becoming mainstream, and soon after the modernization of 'caped' flight, hymns numbers had begun to dwindle due to simply no longer needing them for their main purpose. unlike hymn travel however, manta riding remained persistent as a practice, as the species was abundant, and did not need skypeople aid to continue to breed.

few individuals, like those of the nester families, continued to breed these birds, but eventually discontinued the practice as it became laborious and took too much time.

I HAVE A THEORY

Walk with me here, okay?

Buck finds out Tommy hates Halloween - doesn't like to dress up, has some sort of childhood trauma that makes him not enjoy it, whatever. So Buck, thinking he could maybe scare his boyfriend or make him laugh, puts a pumpkin on his head. But then he can't get it off :( but at least Tommy's laughing

"Evan what the hell"

"🎃 it's stuck"

"Why did you -"

"🎃 I don't know, Tommy. I thought it would be funny or something!"

Then Buck does a little shimmy

"Evan, you're so great. I love you"

"🎃 hwhat did you say?"

"I said, 'Evan, you're so great,' and then I just stopped talking"

"🎃 you said you love me"

"No I didn't!"

"🎃 YOU LOVE ME"

"SO???"

"🎃 WELL I LOVE YOU TOO"

"Take the pumpkin off so I can kiss you"

"🎃 IT'S STUCK, THOMAS"
