Fontaine, amiright?

would Love to crack open the jealous jack manifesto 🫂 perhaps even sitting on the same shelf as the protective nico manifesto bc the contrast between him shrugging stuff off on the ice re: himself vs him trying to punch travis konecny’s lights out for that hit on jack is SOOO

I have three asks about my Jealous!Jack Hughes Manifesto, which I promise you all I will get to, but I wanted to answer this one first.

Protective Nico Hischier: A Study

You're absolutely right, Anon, Nico tends to shrug things off when he's the one being targeted. Now that isn't to say he doesn't love a scrum because he absolutely does like to get into it from to time when he's feeling extra feisty. But there are some very good examples of him fighting because someone has targeted one of his guys.

time for some exhibits! special shout out to @jonasiegenthaler who is my fellow New Jersey Devils Historian <33

Exhibit A - Trouba hits Mango, and Nico immediately goes after him.

Exhibit B - One of the Wild players kind of shoves at Merce, and Nico jumps into the fray.

Exhibit C - This one is insane because this was from Nico's rookie year. He's so quick to come to Palms defense after EJ's knee on knee hit. Like look at how young Nico was here. This is years before Nico's first letter even.

Exhibit D - After R*mp*'s hit on Siegs, Nico who is significantly smaller than him, tries to start something with him even though our designated fighty fight guy, Dermy, is legit right there.

Exhibit E - Chucky Jr charges Shango and our Captain, who was getting ready to get back to the bench, must defend his teammate's honor.

Exhibit F - Chucky has a high-ish hit on Siegs then pesters Pally, and who comes rushing in to take him on? You guessed it! Its Nico Hischier!

Exhibit G - This one's a fun one because Bratter is initially defending Nico and then Nico comes back to defend Bratter. Silly boys.

Exhibit H - Last but certainly not least, Nico going feral when TK goes after Jack.

See the thing is, you mess with him? Most of the time he'll probably just charm the shit out of you or ignore you because you're not really worthy of his time he has hockey to play. Sometimes, if you're really annoying he'll call you a p***y and some other colorful things and shove at you or start something with you or if you're Adam Fox that one time he'll put his hands around your neck.

But if you play dirty with one of his guys, with his teammates, its mother fucking on. He's right there in the thick of it. He has been activated. You've said his code words. He will not be contained.

Its so very CAPTAIN of him isn't it?

Guys, I’ve read the Wild Robot

And let me tell you, if I hadn’t recently taken a Children’s Literature class in college, I would’ve said this was the best middle-grade book I’ve read since elementary/middle school. I almost read this book in one night (I was sleepy 😴) like I couldn’t put it down.

The heart behind this book is astounding and it never shies away from showing complex and difficult concepts. You will fall in love with Roz and her gosling son along with all of the other animal on the island.

If you’ve got younger ones, I highly recommend reading this to them or having a little book club moment with them. However, be prepared for whatever hard questions may come your way (i.e. circle of life and climate issues). You know your child and how much they can handle/understand. If you’re like me and much older, it’s a quick read and a great way to finish off a long day. It’s a part of a trilogy and you bet I’m patiently waiting for my hold on a copy at the library.

If the movie is anything like the book (which, given a rewatch of the trailer, it’s looking like so), we are in for a special treat.

Destiny’s Children actually works so well as a name for them because:

It has pop culture significance

Destiny is a major theme (and antagonist???) in the campaign

1/3 of the PCs are literal children, while another 1/3 of them are adults that are essentially also children because they never got to live out their childhood days

Okayyyy please let me amuse you.

Guys what if mahito's domain expansion is called that because instead of him being the curse of human hatred, he actually represents self-hatred more and humans' need to be seen as "perfect" as possible.

Because humans hate themselves as much as they hate each other. Or maybe even more. Which is why as much as Mahito's technique can alter and change others' souls, he has as much control over the change in his own. It represents that humans hate themselves enough to want to change not only themselves but also others that might judge them, hate them, etc. I'm also gonna bring up the fact that mahito's stitches (? The patchwork face thing) might not be represent the result of humans hurting each other, but instead how we change how we look through surgery, etc. (Because if it was about humans' brutality against each other, why the stitches? I think stitches are a rather clean way to show brutality, so like. They're probably not real stitches of course, more of a representation, but I'll stand for it representing intentional change.) So yeah, it's hatred and judgment against one's self more than others.

Not saying Mahito hates himself — just talking about how his very technique reflects some deeply-rooted hatred humans have for themselves.

the more I learn about JD Vance, the more I think Trump has dirt on him or something - or he really really wants power in any way, shape or form

Demigods of all pantheons fall under the Uncanny Valley. Like they're half-God and Gods are obviously not normal in human sense. Like when you look at a demigod you just know there something off about them. Especially children of powerful Gods, they just straight up look alien to mortal.

Petition to make all demigods shine bright like a diamond in the eyes of mortals and I'd probably have to buy a pair of sun glasses if I want to look at Will in the face.

Sky oc angst/potential angst lore in a single image. I may draw them happy most of the time, but they got issues still （；^ω^).

Ocs: Korro, Altair, and Mana. Haven't drawn much for the last two but hope to when I got more free time

[beesantennas]

interesting how they didn't spend much time at ALL focusing on human relationships in the last season (especially with the team changing so much with the additions of smokes and mags and sometimes jackie) so like. how are we really supposed to feel the impact of them Leaving For Cybertron........

Victor and Carla should've stayed malvagos until at least the final battle with Ash, and that is the hill on which will I die. It just seems incredibly stupid and short-sighted on Team Avalor's part to just willfully weaken the capability of two powerful allies right before the big confrontation with their mutual enemy. Like I know Elena & Co still probably don't fully trust them (and not without reason), but it still strikes me as a risk that they should not have been willing to take. They need their allies as capable as possible, and now Mateo is going to have to take much needed time out of his already-busy schedule to teach them "regular" magic that still won't be quite as natural or powerful as what they had before.

Also, it would've been so much more narratively satisfying to have Victor and Carla go up against Ash while all three Delgados were still malvagos. (Even though the nature of the show is such that Elena would be the one "allowed" to actually defeat Ash. But Victor and Carla should've at least been granted the opportunity to have a moment where they could stand up to the wife/mother who abandoned and mistreated them on theoretically-equal footing).
