It just occurred to me that turnabout countdown would be an incredible place for the Apollo Trucy sibling reveal
bombing happens, Apollo is in the hospital, they're not letting anyone in except family no matter how many legal loopholes Phoenix tries, but Trucy is just So Desperate to see him and make sure that he's ok. Phoenix sees her about to break down in the hospital waiting room and decides that Thalassa's promise is not so important that he can let Trucy go through this so he pulls out the pictures of documents Thalassa had sent him and explains to the doctor that no, Trucy is his half-sister, she's family, you have to let her in. and they do! And now Trucy has to sit there in that room with nothing but machines and her own thoughts hoping beyond hope that the boy she now knows to be her brother is going to make it long enough to find out the truth
It adds another layer to Apollo taking his lil leave of absence too
Athena is pretty explicitly a lawyer that Phoenix chose, that he had faith in, that he tells everyone to trust and believe. And if, in the middle of his whole murder and bombing situation, Apollo finds out that Phoenix hid this from him and Trucy for YEARS? how can he trust him about Athena? What ELSE is Phoenix keeping secret

damn, being on rec lists and scrolling through some of the KinnPorsche servers have me missing KinnPorsche and KimChay so much. I seriously do not know where the magic went, do not know when the motivation to write for them flat lined. I guess I just never did CPR.
I would like to finish my WIPs for KimChay because I have outlines and notes and stuff, but a strange part of me feels... nervous? Not sure. I don't know. Maybe I'll take a look at stuff next weekend and see where it takes me. No promises, somewhat unlikely, but we can try.

Expanding on my last post about Thrash's concept from the TFB.
While I was looking through his concept, I came across the words “Pure ID.”
..What does this mean?
It could mean two things.
1, His sense of ID is pure.
Or 2, He’s purely driven by ID.
Today I'm going to be focusing on the second option cause I wanna and it's the coolest
Okay, so let's take a step back. Thrash driven purely by ID. What is ID?
“The ID is the primitive, impulsive part of our psyche driven by instincts and desires.” So if you’re hungry, your ID will tell you to eat. If you want something, your ID will tell you to get it.
How does this fit into real people? There are generally 3 parts of your personality: ID, Ego, and Superego.
The ID is the impulse to have or do something (ID = Remember, Impulsivity driven by pleasure) while the superego is basically your conscience. (Superego = the morals you’ve learned from parents and teachers) The ego takes your instincts from your ID and the morals/information from your superego and finds a way to fit them together so you can get what you want without being morally incorrect (*depending on what your morals are. Most of our morals come from the oldest people closest to us though)
So to be driven purely by ID, purely by instincts and desire, would be really interesting. Imagine a Thrash who would put all morals aside to get what he wants. That's sick asf. (Even if technically he wouldn't have morals to begin with.)
He isn’t like this in the show of course, his morals are very present, like when he defends Mo from Swindle and has conflicting feelings between what he wants and what's right, like when he doubts breaking into the farmer's field. And he just loves his family unconditionally. So not Pure ID in the final show.
But in the TFB all of the terrans are given a defining ‘trait’
(This also leads to my combiner theory but I'll share that another day :3)
Thrash is described as Impulse. That's exactly what ID is, your impulsive thoughts and urges. This is why I think he's driven purely by ID instead of having a pure ID. It also says before the ID statement that he could care less how others see him, sooo... ya
The ID is, by definition, both completely disorganized and completely unconscious: no one is capable of intentionally acting on pure Id. The Id has no judgments of anything; there is no good or evil and no sense of morality at all. Again I think this would be awesome to see in a character.
It's interesting that Transformers would base a character off of Freud's theory of ID, Ego, and Superego in the first place though. A creative choice definetly, and Freud's theory itself is a good introduction to psychology but by no means explains personality and human psychology as a whole. It would be impossible to put the human mind in 3 categories, it's just too complex.
But Freud is also the same guy who said everyone was attracted to their mothers just because he had an incest problem, so yeah. Do what you will with that information.
Lmk if you want to read more on the topic of Thrash and ID, because I'd be happy to write more.

Also idk when I will finish the edit, but the summer games Mauga spray fucked up Mauga's Pe'a and that is disrespectful to the indigenous Sāmoan tatau artist they hired to help create Mauga's design.
Here is the original summer games spray:
Here is his Port-De-Paix Skin:
Look at his arms! His legs! Not even close. :/
