Panels with Time and the Master Sword are my favorite flavor of angst

Here's my guess for dungeon groups:

Time, Twilight and Wind (because Time is NOT going to let Twi out of his sight, also if you look at the second-last panel in the update, it seems like he's looking at them specifically)

Warriors, Hyrule, and Legend (I think it makes sense for them to be together, even if Legend drives Warriors nuts. I could see him being like "here pretty boy I'll teach you all you need to know about dungeons" and go from there. Hyrule is there because I bet he'd want to go with Legend, and he also seems to look up to Warriors)

That leaves Four, Sky, and Wild, which I didn't think about much, but would certainly be an interesting group. Four and Wild working together would be nice, especially with Wild's new sword, and I wonder if Four would maybe end up using the Master Sword... maybe. It's just a guess.

it’s just the way that the doctor still tragically loves the master despite everything.

the master has destroyed their planet and violated their people in the worst way possible and yet they’re still intrinsically entwined for eternity.

the master is who he thinks about when there’s a chance he may die and the master is who he thinks about when he survives.

missy said “my heart is maintained by the doctor” and i do think that’s mutual. the doctor’s hearts are maintained by the master, they always have been and always will be.

Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom had just about everything I could have asked for:

Orm Marius big screen redemption arc

Arthur and Orm bickering and bonding

Orm not knowing shit about the surface

Orm seeing his mama again

Orm in surface clothes

SHIRTLESS ORM, FINALLY JUSTICE FOR PATRICK

Angsty MantaShin fodder

Shin being fucking adorable

Arthur Jr. being the cutest baby to ever exist

Mera and Orm being chill

NONE OF ARTHUR'S FAMILY DYING HAHA I KNEW IT I TOLD YOU

The only things I'm kinda disappointed we didn't get are more Orm interaction with the Curry clan (especially Tom and Jr.) and Orm living at the lighthouse. But that's what fanfic is for.

Hi!! I really really want to get into the academy era eu stuff, but I just have no idea where to start 😭😭😭 do you have any audio/novel/etc recs to start off with? Thank you so much!!

-✨️🪐 anon

Hello! So sorry I didn't see this sooner - I've been quite busy lately (busy enough I forgot to submit my Big Finish Short Trips this year...)

Anyway, for the Academy Era, the starting off point is generally Divided Loyalties. In this novel, there is a long dream sequence of the Academy Era. Since it is a dream, it might not be 100% accurate, but it's what we have.

Otherwise, most of the information we have on the Academy Era comes from the occasional reference in a bunch of different stories. Some of them have more Academy Era material than others...

We can get some pretty good insights from some DWEU material (beyond what is in the TV show). I won't list spoilers here just in case that wasn't what you were looking for (though I have other posts that do entail this information), but here's the list I can think of off the top of my head. Some of these are stories with just general young-Time-Tot era references (not necessarily at the Academy but still the itty bitty, pre-leaving Gallifrey guys), but I'll include them anyway. And some of these references are quick, so be prepared.

Anyways, these are the ones that immediately pop to mind when I think of stories that have references. It's not a complete list, mind, just the ones in my head at the time of writing. They are also not in any order, just the order I thought of them.

Regardless, most of these are just references, and you may not want to read an entire novel for a single reference...If that is the case, let me know, and I can explain some more!

What do you think of Makoto's drawings as a 3 year old kid?

You may have seen some on Twitter and the drawings of @pixelatedraindrops

I think it's funny and cute, their drawings are quite adorable, it's a funny idea, this thing about Makoto having 3 years of creation, and so on.

I even wonder what his adult version would think of this alternative child version of him, I like the concept of the Multiverse.

⚠️⚠️⚠️

It's not the best thing I've done, but it's okay, the flower in the hair is a reference to someone.

So could someone draw Echoes of Wisdom Zelda as if she was a Jedi and her lightsaber looks like Tri rod?

I mean since we already have custom Master Sword Lightsaber that Link could use....

Wouldn't it be in Zelda's best intrest if she had a weapon of her own?

[fulcrum-art-fox]

I do love how episode seven portrayed what happened on Brendok with all its nuance and then episode eight went. well what if we stuck the four people who are least likely to be able to be objective about it in a room together to have a conversation about it
