old 5sos and current 5sos literally feel like two different bands tbh
Anon, my love, apparently I've been waiting for this ask my whole life cuz it sent me into a frenzy. It does but it doesn't. Depends on what you're comparing. Looking at them as people, yes, definitely, they grew a lot in the past decade, obviously, considering the fact that they were literal teenager when they started. Sonically, depends on the jumps you're making. Put she looks so perfect next to wildflower youll be asking what happened (hi dad ✌️) but put slsp next the 2011, it works. I joked in the gc when blender came out that blender sound like english love affair, if english love affair was in yb and they work side by side, play take my hand and never be, that makes absolute sense. I don't know if this is gonna make sense to anyone else, but me myself & i makes me think of vapor. I know you said current and old and yb is not exactly new anymore, but I'm feeling the need to tell you to put Babylon right next to tomorrow never dies, those two go so well together and the fact that they'll never give me a sick live transition between them makes me want to scream. Honestly, I think that over the years they played a lot with their sound so there's a lot to go around and they evolved as musicians A LOT so there are songs that make you question if they are the same band, but you can group old 5sos and new 5sos together if you try. I personally think that's awesome. There's a 5sos for every mood.
#do only have this opinion because i do deep dives into their sound or does someone else agrees with me?#like disregard the lyrics#cuz lets face babysos were painfully teenage boys while writing#and just do a dive into the sound#and you'll see that they just evolved when it comes to using their skills#and they aquired a few new ones#and they have to considering how ephemeral the music industry is and how they say they're striving for longevity in it#using some big words here anna ksosmslksoaks chill out#In the end yes but also no#its all fascinating really sjspksoaksosk#you can find oldsos in the new stuff and that makes my heart warm tbh#sorry i have many many thoughts#i was asked

Kinda fucked that hades would refuse to trade nicos soul for biancas then proceed to tell him that bianca was better than him in every single way and say that it wouldve been better if he died instead of her. It’s so unnecessary and cruel. Why would he even say that? Just to make nico suffer? Like yea hades cares for him deeply, nico has forgiven him, and they probably have one of the better godly parent/child relationships now, but that doesn’t excuse the literal child abuse hes inflicted.
#nico di angelo#the wiki says that nico feels comforted by his dads presence too#but after everything why?#if i was nico i would probably avoid every attempt hades made in trying to be a father#yknow bianca said that nicos fatal flaw was grudges but we havent really seen that#if anything hes being too forgiving here#nico had a grudge against percy but he never targetted him or did anything#and even after finding out how his mother died he still chose to fight for percy and olympus so were grudges ever really a problem for him#hades is his only family nico has left from his oldso i guess he feels the need forgive him and accept him into his life which is really sa

Dragon’s Eye on DuckTales S01E06 - The Beagle Birthday Massacre
Oh man, I have been waiting for this one! The character introduction episodes are out of the way. The dynamics between the Triplets Plus One have been established and fleshed out and the writers are ready to push forward and explore new ideas with those characters.
And it all starts with the arrival of the season’s other major arc, the introduction of my personal favorite character in the show, and also taking a do-over on “Daytrip of Doom” while we’re here.
Inventing Lena DeSpell
There are two words you will not hear me use when discussing Lena’s journey through the course of this season. Those words are “redemption arc”. Lena’s journey has some of the trappings of your standard redemption tropes. She’s a character motivated to do a bad thing, but who ultimately sides with the protagonists. She even pulls off a ham-fisted heroic sacrifice in the season’s finale, which is often a hallmark of redemption stories.
But Lena’s story isn’t about redemption. Redemption implies that a character who was a bad guy changes sides and becomes good. Lena wasn’t a bad guy. Lena actually parallels Webby; she’s a blank canvas experiencing the world for the first time. She’s a child dealing with the influence of one toxic parent molding her in her image and one outside friend just helping her figure out who she is.
Lena hasn’t had a chance to be a good person or a bad person yet. What happens over the course of the season isn’t a redemption story; it’s simply Lena figuring out what she believes in and who she wants to be as a person for the first time, much to her malevolent matron’s dismay.
Make no mistake, Magica sets Lena to a wicked task. Lena is charged with infiltrating McDuck Manor. She is, from the beginning, charged with being a spy and a thief and she does perform some of the tasks given to her. But Lena is about as culpable as a ten-year-old whose mom told her to stuff a piece of merchandise under her coat on the way out of a store.
There is one thing that bothers me about Lena, and it’s the linguistic choice of “Aunt Magica”. At a creative level, the purpose of this moniker is obvious. Lena’s relationship to “Aunt Magica” is meant to parallel the Triplets Plus One’s relationship to “Uncle Scrooge”. And for much of the season, it works.
However, in “The Shadow War”, it’s revealed that Lena’s true nature is that of a magical construct. She’s Magica’s shadow manifested as a person. This reveal, while cool and giving Lena a unique identity in the series, makes the usage of “Aunt Magica” retroactively bizarre.
In this episode, Lena has lines of dialogue such as, “Now I remember why I avoid family! All they do is fight!” What is she talking about? Lena doesn’t have a family outside of Magica, who she does not avoid (at least, not yet).
This kind of dialogue provides a lot of bathos to Lena’s character as introduced. It creates the impression of a nasty home life among what is revealed at episode’s end to be the extended DeSpell family. Given that she’s living in an abandoned auditorium, it may even suggest that Lena herself is a runaway, having fled an abusive household.
But with the ultimate reveal in “The Shadow War”, these lines retroactively make zero sense. Lena doesn’t have a family to avoid, let alone any reason to have such strongly held opinions about the subject. She’s not implying a dark and troubled history; she’s just vomiting nonsense words from her face hole for no reason.
Both the Della Duck and Lena DeSpell storylines have bits like this, which raise questions and create intrigue only to be left unsatisfyingly dangling when the truth is revealed. It leads me to wonder how much the writers actually had planned out from the beginning, how much was just general mystery boxing, and whether plans changed over the course of the season.
Web of Adventure: Make New Friends but Keep the Old
So the central premise of this episode is that “Daytrip of Doom” sucked and the writers would like to take a mulligan on it.
Once again, the Triplets are setting out for a fun activity, but Webby’s place is called into question. The complication this time is logistical; rather than Louie being a jerk, what’s stopping Webby from joining the boys is that their boat was built for three people.
Once the problem becomes apparent, Huey volunteers to stay behind and let Webby take his spot. I love this moment because Huey constantly strives to be the big brother of the group. Here, for the first time, we see Huey extend that courtesy to Webby as well. Giving up his spot for her is a total big brother move, and it demonstrates that Webby is wanted and valued in this group.
But Webby wins the politeness standoff and stays behind. This leads her right into the path of her aspiring new friend, Lena.
Something Wicked This Way Comes: Lena DeSpell
For much of this episode, the premise is ground well-trodden. Most of us have seen this story many, many times before. Webby doesn’t feel valued by her old friends and suddenly she meets this new friend who is exciting and awesome and cool. Together they go off on a whirlwind adventure that seems amazing and fun at first!
But the toxic new friend is actually a bad influence and is bad for her. And, when the chips are down, the new friend leaves her holding the bag and it’s her old friends who turn up to help, revealing to her who her actual friends really were all along.
The moral of the story is that toxic people might be intoxicatingly cool and you might well enjoy being around them, but they’ll only hurt you in the end. Never lose sight of who your real friends are.
Much of the episode follows those beats and it’s easy to be lulled into a false sense of security in knowing where the story is going. But there’s a deeper, more sinister layer to the Lena we meet in this episode. She’s not just irresponsible. She’s not just a bad influence. Lena is a predator.
See, there’s a point midway through the episode where Lena and Webby discuss the Triplets; Webby wants to share with them the experiences she and Lena have had, and Lena starts dissing on them as “Three nerds who left [Webby] on the beach”.
Up to this point, Webby hasn’t said a word about her friends. She mentioned once that she wanted to wait for her friends, but provided no context for what that means. Lena knows things she shouldn’t rightly know and is trying to use that knowledge against Webby; this is an easily-missed bit of foreshadowing about Lena’s true nature.
Webby and Lena did not meet by chance. Lena was watching when the Triplets took the boat. She saw opportunity when Webby was left by herself on the beach. She took advantage of that opportunity to lure Webby to the auditorium so she could ingratiate herself. And in the playground scene, she’s trying to manipulate the conversation to make Webby feel like the Triplets abandoned her.
She’s trying to first physically isolate Webby so no one can intervene, then emotionally isolate Webby by convincing her that her friends don’t really care about her. The end result: to make Webby emotionally dependent on her, Lena, for companionship. To ensure that when Webby does return to the others, she will consider Lena her only true friend. To convince her to hide things from them, to trust in Lena exclusively, and to do whatever Lena asks of her without question, because she believes Lena is the only person in the world who cares about her.
This is Predator 101. And while Lena is ultimately unsuccessful in isolating Webby emotionally, poor neglected Webby is too desperate for companionship to even see her doing it.
There is, however, a complicating factor. Well, there’s two complicating factors; one is just that Lena’s a dumb kid who knows what she’s trying to do but is only halfway decent at actually doing it; throughout the episode, we see her utilize her talent for psychological manipulation at several turns, particularly against the Beagle Boys, but she is only occasionally successful. The other obstacle is a much more dangerous one.
Something Wicked This Way Comes: The Extended Beagle Boys Family
The Beagle Boys make their return from “Daytrip of Doom” now with a wide variety of different Beagle groups supporting them. While I’m not fond of the premise of the Beagle Boys, the animators do a great job of making the various Beagle clans diverse and interesting.
They’re still here as fill-in villains. They aren’t related to the central conflict of the story, which is Lena’s attempts to get in with Webby. They are once again just here to provide some physical menace, giving Lena and Webby the opportunity to bond by battling it out against the different Beagle groups.
It’s unclear whether Lena was even aware of the animosity between Ma Beagle and Webby when she brought Webby to the junkyard. It’s possible that she planned this all out from the start, but if so, she didn’t seem very well prepared for the actual conflict that ensued. It’s also possible that she was just trying to be cool and get Webby to like her by sneaking into this killer Beagle party, and then had to adapt her plan to changing circumstances after Ma and Webby turned out to know each other.
Personally, I favor the latter interpretation; in general, the more convoluted a character’s plans become, the less it feels like they are actually a person existing in the story and the more it feels like they’re just reading the script and claiming credit for its events.
In any case, Ma wants Webby’s head on a plate and so much of the episode is spent with Webby and Lena duking it out with the Beagle clans. This is another key point of distinction between this episode and “Daytrip of Doom”. In that episode, the Triplets accept Webby as a friend because she can fight the Beagles for them. In this one, Webby and Lena work together to overcome the Beagles, building a bond through mutual effort and teamwork that the audience can become invested in.
So although the Beagles are just some one-note bad dude randos to provide a physical threat, they’re at least creative randos this time around and they make for a variety of interesting encounters. They serve their purpose well and facilitate the development of Lena and Webby’s relationship without ever overshadowing the central point of the episode.
Web of Adventure: Wait There’s Still Five Minutes Left
It all comes to a head in the playground. The Triplets show up and their presence disrupts Lena’s ability to manipulate Webby. Webby is no longer physically isolated.
Lena tries to convince Webby to abandon the Triplets to the Beagle Boys and come with her, but between running from the Beagles and the sudden presence of the Triplets, she hasn’t had a chance to properly lay the emotional groundwork. Webby refuses and goes back to help them.
Remember, kids: the presence of even just one another person with you is the strongest defense against predators that there is. An isolated person is vulnerable, but a stalwart friend is an impenetrable shield.
This seems like where that story we’ve all seen a million times before would end. Webby goes back to help the Triplets and together they overcome the Beagles. When she returns to find Lena, Lena has bailed. The toxic friend didn’t wait for her. Of course she didn’t.
Huey once more steps up to be the big brother and console Webby about Lena’s abandonment. It sucks that Lena was never really her friend, but she’ll always have them. They’re her family and they’ll be there for her no matter what. All she can do is take some time, get her feelings in order, and when she’s ready, get back on that horse again.
EXCEPT WAIT WHAT THAT’S NOT WHAT HAPPENED HERE
Plot twist, the story isn’t over yet! Because Lena isn’t a toxic friend who bounced; she’s a true friend after all a predator trying to use Webby to get her foot in the door of McDuck Manor. She didn’t bail on Webby; the Beagle Boys caught her!
This subversion leads into one last clash with the Beagles. Lena and Webby put their skills together to demonstrate what the strength of their friendship can do and take the Beagles all down as one. Lena manipulates them into fighting one another, leaving the few Beagles in their path vulnerable to Webby’s action skills.
Lena sets them up, Webby knocks them down, and the audience has one last chance to cheer for how awesome these two characters are together and root for their friendship to be everlasting.
Which, in turn, sets up the whammy of a final scene.
Something Wicked This Way Comes: Magica DeSpell
This last scene is fantastic. Webby notices that Lena has an ancient Sumerian talisman shortly after they meet for the first time. However, Lena mentions that she got her shirt in Paris; whatever her issues with her family are, she’s clearly well-traveled. She also tucks away the talisman for most of the episode; by the time this final scene happens, it’s easy to have forgotten she even had it.
But then Lena returns home to the auditorium and casts an incantation to invoke Magica. Magica doesn’t have a single word of dialogue in this scene, but her presence is felt in her grandiose shadow and malevolent grin.
It’s a tense and suspenseful finale reintroducing the most iconic villain in DuckTales history. It strikes the audience like a curve ball to the face, but it’s been subtly set up enough throughout the episode that it doesn’t feel like it comes right out of nowhere.
This is what the whole episode has been building to. And as the scene fades to black and the credits roll, the tug of addiction-based storytelling is impossible to resist.
In Conclusion
This episode makes for a great introduction to the intrigue of Lena DeSpell, Webby’s best friend and Magica’s infiltrating agent. I love the dynamic at work with how the episode presents her. Lena is a dangerous predator masquerading as a toxic influence.
There’s something about her behavior that’s always subtly off, but that’s masked by her flippancy and her seemingly artificial coolness. It’s easy to get a bad impression from the way she talks and acts, but it’s also easy to write that bad impression off as the object lesson of the episode: Webby is going to learn that friends like Lena are actually bad for her.
Hilariously enough, Lena’s next appearance in “Terror of the Terra-Firmians” will literally be about this judgmental mindset, too. If you watched Lena be all too cool for school, listened to how she talks, and immediately decided that she’s definitely going to be the bad guy of the episode, then the writers have your fucking number.
And when Lena turns out to genuinely be trying to be Webby’s friend in the end, it’s a surprising and endearing twist that emotionally sets the audience up for that final gut-punch, which puts all those bits that seemed off about her into a brand new light.
"The Beagle Birthday Massacre” is a cleverly written roller coaster that plays on expectations and utilizes cliches in order to deliver a surprisingly solid experience.

This sound petty as fuck of me but I can’t bring myself to listen to any songs from YB as it’s too tied up with the beards. I’m literally listening to their OldSOS tunes like “I can’t remember”, “try hard”, Debut album and sgfg back when they were tweens and I miss these times. Although I agree they have matured musically and YB is a banging album, I just keep thinking Crusty and Sardine. It’s sad that this era is just overshadowed by those two and the music is no longer the focus in the fandom
I can understand this. This isn’t the first time I’ve heard this either. So much of 5sos’ current image is wrapped up in the beards that it’s hard to really get behind YB. Unfortunately, I don’t see that changing because drama sells. Couples sell. Bad breakups sell. It’s a great marketing device.

Yeah, well fuck. My girlfriend has been acting strange and out of the ordinary for the past couple of days now, barely talking to me, giving me one worded responses, no calls, no hearts, nothing. I’ve been taking multiple approaches to it, and it’s been eating me alive. I fucked up, because I listened to a friend regarding advice. Basically, we concluded that she was losing feelings for me (pathetic, I know).We’re both 28 years oldSo I got into this really profound dispute with her, giving her point after point of my observations and acknowledgements, and I started questioning her love for me. She kept on replying “you should know the answer to that”. The night before, I had a night out with friends deliberately and with the intention to get my mind off of her, and we got plastered until 3am. I didn’t sleep all night and I’m hungover as shit, too.So I basically threatened to breakup with her if she didn’t tell me what’s going on and why she can’t admit that she loves me. She called me crying and told me that she’s “going through a lot” and immediately hung up. So I texted her paragraph after paragraph apologizing and promising to give her space and be there for her if she needs me.Yeah. What the fuck do I do? She’s mad about something and then her boyfriend threatens to breakup with her (this is the first and last time by the way, not like that changes anything). Any ideas would be strongly appreciated. I fucked up lolEDIT: I decided to end the relationship, fuck it. Too many problems lately, lack of love, and too much bullshit. Next! via /r/dating_advice
