my dark link thoughts coalesced into wonderful headcanons and crazy amounts of forced perspectives and dutch angles

also sorry HW i would have included your dark link(s) but i do not have passion for your game <3 maybe next time

Some thoughts below

I have thoughts about dark link that boil down to basically two things: 1. it's always the same dark link, and 2. dark link has a very difficult time changing.

No matter how many times dark link is brought into existence, he is formed from the shadow of link usually to test link's will. that shadow can be duplicated (as seen in HW) but generally speaking it's the same guy, sharing the thought space, you know how it is. In terms of sentience/thinking for himself, I don't think there's all that much of it. He is a dark reflection/shadow of link, so shares his abilities and thought patterns (for combat) with added aggression and. evil. i guess.

As said by navi, "conquer yourself", and all that. He's a challenge to the inner will power.

That being said!!! he can have a little bit of individuality, as a treat. Just in the form of being mean and sadistic <3 he's got thoughts, he's not just a combat doll (tho in times of low power, or a greater power having the reins, he reverts to that), so he can be frustrated, vindicated, happy, etc etc. though when your thoughts are mainly "evilevilevilevilevil" your idea of these emotions are a bit skewed.

When he's summoned for each different link, i hc that it's all the same magic, so the same dark link every time. he "remembers" in an abstract sense of his role in the same way a link or zelda "remembers" their own reincarnation. tho his is less of a reincarnation and more being used over and over again. a persistence.

The iteration that's summoned reflects the current link at the time, the part of link that needs testing/defeating, so it's not an existence that he himself can change to match the present. he's locked to that first copy/shadow only. So if he were to have a second encounter with an older link, he'd look like the first time they fought, unless he was specifically re-summoned. i hc he's got limited magic, so this is not something he can do himself.

in a links-meet scenario, his form would be limited to those specific forms of the links, and it would always be the points in time in which he first encountered them, unless there's other magic either he or someone else has access to to allow him to change forms to match.

now you might be saying at this point "wouldn't he be a weaker match if he was put up against an older link?" yeah probably lol. but also!!! i like the idea that with the limited magic he has, he's able to change juuuust enough to stay relatively evenly matched. being able to play to different strengths and all that. but the base stuff is still the same, so he is decently easy enough to read if link remembers the kind of stuff he was pulling back when he originally fought dark link.

dark link also knows about all this so while limited to the particular skillset, is able to adapt slightly.

but yeah been thinking a lot about a links-meet au where dark link is there choosing a different link to be every time he appears to the party.

though there are a couple links that he never impersonates in their games!!! so can't change into those guys unless he gets a new round of copycat magic.

Anyways goodbye guy standing there with standard camera angle, i have dutch angles and forced perspective

The Black Rose has Already Infiltrated Piltover and Zaun!

You know how there's speculation that this shadowy figure has to do with LeBlanc because LeBlanc and members of her Black Rose group do the eye/eye makeup glow thing?

Well the conspiracy only goes deeper! Last year, nearly to the day, an exclusive splash art for LeBlanc's Rose Quartz Prestigious skin was released on CN servers.

Do you recognize that familiar face in the background?

I do!

It's Local Cusine (LC)! You could argue that it's just an easter egg. But why is Local Cuisine in Noxus? LC's presumably a sex worker from Zaun and here he is hob knobbing in Noxus, in a splash for LeBlanc of all people.

How do we know this a Black Rose gathering? Well, we can see that the window in LeBlanc's splash art matches the same design used in the homes of other members of the Black Rose in Riot media.

We also know that many Black Rose members wear masks upon first appearance so that their identity will be anonymous to other members. If you look closely, you can even see that the shadowy figure from the trailer is wearing a mask around their eyes as well.

And can you guess which character we met wearing a mask in their very first appearance?

It's Local Cusinie!

But what does any of this mean? Well, LC could have been sent as a spy by LeBlanc herself to test the Medardas' loyalty to the Black Rose. If Swain is truly set to take power by season 2, then many powerful families affiliated with the Black Rose WILL be purged.

Maybe LeBlanc's sent LC to have them killed herself. The Medardas may be loose ends to her, because Ambessa is only loyal to preserving her family and may in fact expose the conspiracy further to Swain to her and Mel if she could.

Or maybe LC has his own agenda. Maybe LC is related to the Ionian princess Ambessa killed. You don't have to be from Noxus to be a part of the Black Rose, the organization predates Noxus itself. And frankly, Black Rose members and their related assets do their own thing pretty often, their web of plans can even bite LeBlanc in the butt.

what most people take away from wfa episode 117:

why tf did no one thing the joker could be involved

bet that summer training looks great right now

they need better tracking devices

what a discord server im in took away from it:

what the hell is the joker wearing

why is he posed like that

does he not know how to hold a gun

the joker in question

[agencyboys]

we don't exactly know how ghost clothes work, but if they can change them at will and into anything, ghost!Niko would basically play dress-up everyday! like why would she limit herself to one outfit when she can literally wear whatever?

i think this is true whether she comes back as a ghost (or something similar) in canon, or if it's a dead girl detectives au! imagine the possibilities!! i think she would mix and match decades and have so much fun with her outfits!!!

[thicctails]

a lil "Stanford" sketch from the discord

[hanzajesthanza]

ida emean is the most mysterious witcher character to me. like she literally just showed up from the blue mountains (i thought the elves were starving up there last time we checked) (also last time we checked the elves which lived in the blue mountains wanted nothing to do with humans ever and that’s why they live in said mountains) (like filavandrel whom sapkowski said intentionally never showed up again after time of contempt because he was an old and wise elf that could not be fooled and was not persuaded by the nilfgaardianian bequeathing of land)

and she just shows up as francesca findabair’s plus one to the who run the world girls meeting. you know. which contains humans. and then her only thing is that she’s an elf. she showed up. and oh yeah she fucking slayed that shit so hard not wearing any stones or metals at all in her jewelry in a daffodil dress. and her red hair. of course. but her dialogue is basically just: “yep confirming that’s magic” and “you are being a bit racist don’tcha think”

but the thing that REALLY makes me throw my hands up here is that she’s an AEN SAEVHERNE ?? literally a title we know best from it also belonging to LARA DORREN and AVALLAC’H?? but she was just hanging out with francesca in dol blathanna like going over to her friend’s for tea, when it is said even among the elves it’s rare to known an aen saevherne. so what relationship do they have that… ? dunno.

and but of course, because she is an elf, she is aloof, taciturn, and inscrutable as all hell and so we learn practically nothing about her.

Rating Marie's Outfits!!!!

It is FINALLY time to go over Marie's outfits throughout the years and rate them on a scale of 1 to 10. 1 being complete dogshit and 10 being peak.

I won't be showing EVERY SINGLE outfit in every single piece of concept art and media because i wanna maintain my sanity, plus she shares a lot of her concept art outfits with Callie already in Splatoon 1.

Also, THIS IS JUST MY SUBJECTIVE OPINION!!! If you disagree, guess what, that's alright!!!

So yeah! LET'S GET INTO IT!

Splatoon 1 - Squid Sisters Outfit

Rating: 10/10

Ugh, i love this look so much. They really knocked it out of the park on her first ever official look. I love the green that they picked and it goes REALLY well with the blue reflective material. The headpiece and haircut create a super duper strong silhouette.

This is iconic and its no mystery as to why. Nintendo decided to lock the FUCK IN 9 years ago.

Splatoon 1 - Young Marie

Rating: 8/10

There's not much to say about wittle little baby Marie, she's just very cute!! Not as cute as baby Callie but that's just because I'm biased...

Splatoon 1 - Green Tanuki Outfit

Rating: 9/10

I think what gives this outfit 7 points alone are those black tights... I think they are doing something to my brain chemistry, and i don't know how to put it into words.... Listen, y'all, if you ever want me to fold, put a girl in black tights and a short dress. I'll do anything that lady tells me to do, even break the law...

...UH... MOVING ON!!!! That squid Christmas hat is so damn adorable too.

Splatoon 1 - Perfect Mind Outfit

Rating: 9/10

She looks like a fucking nerd. I love it. I adore how they changed her head piece to look like a sort of graduation hat. That's funny.

Splatoon 1 - Pokémon Green Outfit

Rating: 10/10

Mmmmmmmrrrghhhhhhhhhhh,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,..,,

Splatoon 1 - Costume Party Attire

Rating: 10/10

I mean come on now, what else would i rate this? Look at it. You mean to tell me that you would give this ANYTHING LOWER THAN A 10?!?! You're insane...

Splatoon 1 - Agent 2/Casual

Rating: 7/10

It's pretty good. Nothing spectacular or insane. I like the face mask that conceals her identity. I like her skirt, too. Very cool. Also, like that little squid skull thingy on her hat, interesting detail to have.

Splatoon 1 - Concept Art 1

Rating: 7/10

Just like Callie's concept design, this actually has potential and I could see it totally working better with some tweaks. Maybe a longer dress, the patterns on the arms being reduced, stuff like that you know?

It's definitely a unique vibe for the Squid Sisters I'll give it that.

Splatoon 1 - Concept Art 2

Rating: 8/10

Oh... This has a LOT of sauce actually. I love the hexagonal pattern on the dress and those black tights. I kinda wanna see this come back in some sort of official manner, just maybe with a different pattern on the front and a more interesting headpiece. it really gives me a futuristic sort of vibe for Marie, and in the right setting, this outfit would KILL!!! Just needs some tweaks.

Splatoon 1 - Concept Art 3

Rating: 8/10

I'm glad that this wasn't the final outfit chosen because it's way too "military/commander" like and not "j-pop idol." However... I would love to see this come back and it would kinda fit with a current day, Marie, who's now the boss of Deep Cut.

Plus she looks hot in that outfit so-

Splatoon 2 - Kimono

Rating: 10/10

Bro, if i gave this anything other than a 10, i would get my IP address leaked, my home address leaked, my phone number, email, date of birth, my mother's maiden na-

Anyways, what I really love about this outfit is the little details and amount of time and effort that the developers clearly put into this. The patterns at the bottom of her kimono, the green and pink colouring throughout, the headpiece, the triangle pattern near the middle.

It's very very well done and it deserves to be as iconic as it is.

Splatoon 2 - 1st Anniversary

Rating: 10/10

Nintendo.... you give Marie this absolutely beautiful outfit, with the red lipstick, the cool kimono with the octopus details, the red tips in her hair... and you never EVER bring this back? You are a bunch of fucking morons I swear to GOD!!!

Splatoon 2 - Squidmas Outfit

Rating: 5/10

Eh. It's just a little bland, nothing crazy but nothing bad either. It's just near the middle.

She also gives me 35 year old parent vibes... Is it just me?

Splatoon 2 - Splatoween 2020

Rating: 7/10

I mean, what can I say? I like a girl with a top hat and suit. It's stylish. Don't judge me. I can't give this one a higher rating because we don't have a clear look at the full thing, but what is there is pretty neattttt.

Splatoon 2 - "Evil" Marie Concept Art

Rating: 7/10

I wanted to talk about this because this is technically the only concept art we have of an "Evil" Marie. Sure Callie shares this art too but, this basically the only tangible piece of "Evil" Marie Nintendo has ever shared.

I think what is there is really really interesting as a base, what it needs is more detail and some of the stuff found in fan designs of "Hypno Marie." You know, a coat or cape and an octopus headpiece. I love the idea of having a full body suit with green patterns on it and if someone were to fully realise the design I think it could be fucking incredible.

Artists... you know what to do, and if you do it... you better @ me... pls? Thx. Xoxo!

Splatoon 2 - Hero Mode Concept Art

Rating: 7/10

I decided to group this all together because they are pretty similar. They are very interesting concept designs, and I like the vibe they give off. They make Marie mysterious and kinda badass. But since this is just concept sketches i cant rate it any higher than a 7.

Nintendo really has a thing for giving Marie commander/boss like attire that makes her damn hot huh?

Splatoon 2 - Team Order Outfit

Rating: 7/10

Much like how Callie received Pearl's crown and a color change, so did Marie with Marina's headphones.

Although it's just the same old' Squid Sisters look for Marie, the colors on her look really really good and the headphones compliment the outfit surprisingly well. I can't give this a higher score because at the end of the day, it's a simple recolour.

Splatoon 3 - Alterna Attire

Rating: 10/10

Yeah this is just.... it's peak guys. Just like Callie's Alterna look, this is, in my opinion, a flawless design that perfectly captures where Marie is at in her life.

It combines the iconography and colors of her Squid Sister attire, but also the class and professional look of her kimono from Splatoon 2. I LOVEEEEE the big white coat, the green that they picked, the little golden pin on her coat, her umbrella, and her shoes that have green soles on them to help break up the black.

Nintendo, you fucking cooked. Good job.

Splatoon 3 - Splatoween

Rating: 9/10

God this is just... nearly perfect. The colors are so appealing, the face paint is so adorable. The only thing I wish they did was change the damn headpiece to something halloween themed.

Also I wouldn't mind having a little bite at that round plump pumpkin I'm seeing... UHHH WHAT THE FUCK AM I SAYI-

Splatoon 3 - FrostyFest

Rating: 8/10

Yeah, this is just great. Marie looks so warm and snuggled up. The little red nose, too, is so damn cute. It's nothing ABSOLUTELY CRAZY but, it's a really great winter outfit for Marie.

Splatoon 3 - Springfest

Rating: 7/10

Honestly? I'm not actually feeling that strongly about this look for Marie. It's still good but.... it's not great either. There's something about it that I just can't put my finger on.

I love the eggshell on her head though, that's really cute.

Splatoon 3 - Summer Nights

Rating: 9/10

Dude.... ugh.... Not only did they make Callie so damn hot with her Summer Nights outfit, but they did the same thing with Marie.

My fucking GOD bro, the lemon and oyster on her head, the silver shoes, the puffy pants, the overalls, the silver top.... the exposed skin....

The only thing I don't like is the hair, If they just let Marie's hair down as seen in Splatfest art, I would EASILY give this a 10/10.

Splatoon 3/1 - Past Marie

Rating: 7/10

I have nothing else to say other than I love the white jacket and how it appears in the Callie vs. Marie art. And those shoes and... the long hair... oh I love long hair Marie, girl please let your hair down more please... PLEASE!!!!

Splatoon 3 - Concept Art 1

Rating: 7/10

Nintendo giving Marie a fucking gas mask which is a step up from her face mask in her Agent 2 design is actually so cool and I wish Marie got a gas mask in an official outfit.

Also DEM SHOES THO?!?!?! I love me some shoes with puffy soles in them I tell ya.

Splatoon 3 - Concept Art 2

Rating: 4/10

Nah. Not feeling this, don't like the hair, she looks like a grandma WAY TOO MUCH!!!

Splatoon 3 - Grand Festival Outfit

Rating: 9/10

Just like Callie's Grand Fest outfit, this is ALMOST PERFECT! The ONLY issue is that I wish there was some lime green thrown in there, or maybe the 3 squid stripe design to break up the beige color.

I really do love the crown too and the slight differences between her outfit and Callie's.

Anyways that is it for my ratings of MOST of Marie's different looks!

Do you agree? Disagree? Let me know!!!
