apart from the verbal sparring and the visual implication of the parted curtains, what i enjoyed about this scene is how ambessa truly writes caitlyn off as someone she can completely manipulate.

we are familiar with ambessa's 'blood for blood' mentality when it comes to family and, in some way, that is true for caitlyn especially in the first act. but now that all things are said and done, caitlyn wavers and ambessa senses this, too; the conviction is there but the resolve requires fuel. so ambessa stokes the fire, literally and figuratively, choosing the words 'anger' and 'sorrow' to remind caitlyn what she should feel, appealing to caitlyn's grief yet again.

the problem is, ambessa sees too much of herself in caitlyn that she underestimates caitlyn's talent for deduction. and that is clear in ambessa's reaction in the end of the act.

i know we have our reservations against caitlyn but i think we can somewhat agree that her mind, when put to work in things unrelated to autocracy, is simply brilliant.

Crystallized villains confuse me cuz i always thought they were a villain to a certain ninja but these generally just dont make sense (correct me if im wrong)

Like what-

This is disappointing lego + netflix should actually try to make it easy to listen to 4 visually impaired fans

Its like they just left it as (this is for example not something said) "the cat walked across the road" no description on what the cat looks like, what the background is like, what the road looks like

Just saw that Dragons Rising has audio description.

As a visually impaired fan, I was super excited.

If you don't know, audio description is another audio track, like a language dub, that describes the scene on screen for people with low/no vision. It describes what's going on, at least basic things about characters or scenery, usually during gaps in dialogue.

....this was not it.

My excitement turned to crushing disappointment in less than a minute.

A robotic voice greeted me with "Ninjago Dragons Rising", and then the title of the episode.

Arin does his speech, but. There's no mention of what he's doing. Or that his parents are watching him/that he looks to them.

Do you know what the first thing this robotic voice that i dont even think is a human says?

"A portal opens, and a dragon flies out/past".

....that's it.

No mention of the colours. The shape of the portal. The looks on peoples faces.

I stopped watching there for now. It's late, and I just wanted to check it out before I forgot. I'll watch more tomorrow and give more thoughts.

But this is really disappointing, Lego.

hey morning Bucca can you reblog this in the morning and let me know if this idea sucks or not

Why are we as a fandom not talking more about this scene ??

Clive is literally asking the professor to come back and stop him. Like this isn't him pretending to be Future Luke : he looks genuinely upset/displeased even after the professor promises to come back. He only goes back to smiling after the professor says, and I quote "I wouldn't dream of leaving things here in that state" before talking about stopping his future self. Clive wants confirmation that Layton is actually going to confront the bad guys, that he won't just solve the mystery but fix it too.

And this is literally so important. Clive's speech at the end, about getting saved. This is concrete proof that he had truly meant it from the start, because he's asking for Layton to stop him and thus save everyone here. Which, hey- he didn't just hope and wait to get saved, he tried to save himself too.

Yep, that's right. The game talks about how dangerous it was for Clive to bring Layton underground : it doesn't talk about how even more dangerous it was to let him leave. He could have brought back cops (he did). He could have gathered precious knowledge out there (he did). He could have never come back (and yet he did !!). Clive letting Layton leave is the biggest threat to his plan, and yet HE DID. And you know what else he did ? Make Layton promise to stop him. You can't make a clearer call for help, you just can't.

"Oh but it doesn't make his crimes more forgivable, now does it-" of course not. This isn't about Clive's redemption, it's about Clive trying to avoid needing a redemption : his efforts are vain the moment he started using the fortress. But. There were efforts.

The Vees ABSOLUTELY do the rainbow capitalism bs irl companies do, except all of them are ACTUALLY queer so its even more effective than it is irl bcuz "they wouldn't take advantage of us, they're gay too!" Unfortunately rhey are still takinf advantage of queer people. Diversity loss the evil capitalists profiting off of your identity are all some flavor of queer.

And I’m completely normal about this expression as well

This person is amazing at writing fics and im super happy bout this :D

so a while ago i took a fic commission from the lovely @nonsense-at-2am. the prompt was:

“jay uses video games to cope with the events of skybound but it eventually just becomes unhealthy and eventually the other ninja help him get out of this”

so… confession time. i ORIGINALLY planned to write a little one shot about this, but i started getting ideas and thinking more about the prompt. i had a lot of ideas that i loved, but there was NO WAY i was gonna be able to fit it all in just a one shot. therefore…

tada! this is gonna be a multi-chapter fic - my first one ever :) i’m nearly done with the first chapter, and yeesh. just a heads up, this is my first time writing so much - when i sat down to start writing this, i had no idea it was gonna be more than 2.5k words 😬😬😬 as such, i’m not sure if it’s good or not. luckily i have an excellent beta reader, so i trust that when i release it it will be passable lol.

i should probably be able to post it by the end of the weekend, so be prepared! im quite proud of it, and i hope you’ll like it.

thanks again @nonsense-at-2am for the brilliant idea, i loved writing this.

have a lovely day!

-Lee :)
